More about the book
Focusing on the grammar of Sanzhi Dargwa, this comprehensive descriptive work explores its phonology, morphology, and syntax from a typological viewpoint. The language, spoken by about 250 individuals, features a complex consonant inventory, rich case system, and dual agreement systems for gender/number and person. Its morphology is primarily suffixing, with a diverse array of verb forms that integrate tense, aspect, mood, and evidentiality. The typical word order is subject-object-verb (SOV), with head-final structures in subordinate clauses, highlighting its unique linguistic characteristics.
