Description

The Greater Awyu Languages of West Papua provides a comprehensive and authoritative look at the Greater Awyu family of Papuan languages. This volume represents the culmination of decades of intensive research, including ten years of dedicated fieldwork by the author. It serves as a vital resource for linguists, anthropologists, and researchers interested in the linguistic diversity of the Pacific region. Readers will find a detailed description of major patterns within the language family, covering essential areas such as phonology, morphology, syntax, and discourse. Beyond pure linguistics, the book explores the anthropological dimensions of these languages. It covers specific cultural elements including counting systems, language names, kinship structures, and linguistic ideologies. The text also examines lexical substitution registers, avoidance, and taboo practices. This work is an essential addition to the Pacific Linguistics series for anyone studying the complex relationship between language and culture in West Papua.
