Some Problems of Transitivity in Swahili
The British Navy and the Siege of Quebec, 1775–6
THE PERFORMANCE of the British army and navy in the war which ended in the loss of the American colonies has not generally been praised. One of the exceptions to the lackluster record is the defence of Quebec City in the winter of •775-6, and its relief in the following spring, in which the British navy played a particularly vital role. 1 By early November •775 invading American forces under General Richard Montgomery and Colonel Benedict Arnold …

Anthropologically the Nyasaland Yao have been intensively studied by …
Kinship Terminology and the Initial Vowel
Opening ParagraphAmong a number of interlacustrine Bantu languages the nominal prefix is commonly of a shape V1CV2 (vowel, consonant, vowel). It is convenient to refer to V1 as the 'initial vowel' of the prefix, even where-as in Class 9-the prefix comprises only a single vowel or a vowel followed by a nasal. In certain contexts the prefix has been noted to occur without this initial vowel, and while no full study of such contexts has yet been mad…
The Changing Position of Swahili in East Africa
Opening ParagraphThe initial spread of Swahili from the coastal areas of Kenya and Tanganyika during the last century must, in large measure, be attributed to the Swahili traders, who, with their often unsavoury reputations and their caravans, took the language as far as the Congo. Where these traders settled in any numbers, as at Tabora, Mwanza, Ujiji, Usumbura, Lake Nyasa, and, to a smaller extent, at Mumias, small Islamic islands of coastal-Sw…
