A Grammar of Goemai: Volume 51 by Birgit Hellwig
English | 16 Sept. 2011 | ISBN: 3110238284 | 596 Pages | PDF | 27 MB

This is the first description of Goemai, a West Chadic language of Nigeria. Goemai is spoken in a language contact area, and this contact has shaped Goemai grammar to the extent that it can be considered a fairly untypical Chadic language. The grammar presents the structure of the present-day language, relates it to its diachronic sources, and adds a semantic perspective to the description.
