The Brahui language, spoken by some 1,5 million people in Pakistan, Iran and Afghanistan, is the earliest offshoot of the Dravidian stock. Isolated from the kindred languages for several thousand years, it combines ancient features inherited from the Proto-Dravidian ancestor with numerous borrowings from its Iranian and Indo-Aryan neighbours. Apart from a detailed practical grammar, illustrated with copious examples from Brahui texts, the book offers the latest comparative-historical informatio

A key challenge of studying the historical phonology of any language is how to reconstruct the pronunciation of periods before the availability of sound recording. Many studies of pre-twentieth-century pronunciation rely on sources that comment on how people spoke, or infer pronunciation from spelling variation or rhymes. This book is the ?rst to investigate the phonology of nineteenth-century English based on a new kind of written source material: it examines pronunciation evidence provided by

Thinking of and talking about future events is a crucial part of our everyday lives. Thus, it is not surprising that in the languages of the world, a variety of markers for future time reference has developed. The goal of this volume is to take a contrastive perspective on the evolution of future constructions by bringing together scholars working on different languages and language families. In doing so, the edited volume opens up new perspectives on long-standing questions regarding the diachr

This dissertation applies the theories and methods of Labovian sociolinguistics to phonetic variation in the small, diasporic minority-context Yiddish community. This community is delineated by usage of Yiddish despite it not being a widely-spoken language in their neighborhoods, schools, workplaces, and other aspects of their daily lives. While community members are spread around the world, this study focuses on those in three cultural centers: Boston, Montreal, and New York City. In analyzing

The study of "inclusive language" in Spanish has been predominantly approached from disciplines such as sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, and critical discourse analysis, and it has been understood as a social practice or as a space for identity construction. However, the description of these phenomena from the internal perspective of linguistics and formal grammar remains notably scarce.
