Zygmunt Frajzyngier, Locative predications in Chadic languages
Erin Shay, in collab. with Lazare Wambadang, A grammar of Pévé
A grammar of Pévé is Shay’s third major descriptive work on Chadic languages following a dissertation on East Dangla (Shay 1999) and a collaborative work on Hdi grammar (Frajzyngier 2002), and preceding a fourth grammar due for publication this year (Shay 2021). It is another valuable contribution to the description of Chadic languages, an African language family which remains relatively under-documented. The book has a flat structure; the main b…

This path is identical to what has been documented in Philippine-type languages. T…
