Book The Word in Arabic

Download or read book The Word in Arabic written by Giuliano Lancioni and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2011-10-14 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first monograph-length volume entirely devoted to the theoretical and empirical issues raised by the definition of ‘word’ and related concepts in Arabic, both at the historical and synchronic level. Some of the best-known scholars in the field of Arabic linguistics debate such issues as the technical definition of words and morphemes in the Arabic grammatical and rhetorical traditions, the theoretical status of the root and its interactions with morphology, the analysis of word in the computer treatment of Arabic texts, some relevant phenomena in the contact of Arabic with other languages. The result is a fresh portrait of some of the most interesting research currently under way in Arabic linguistics from different theoretical and methodological viewpoints.

Book Le kiswahili  une langue moderne

Download or read book Le kiswahili une langue moderne written by Alain Ricard and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2009 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Karen Blixen, sans doute meilleure fermière que linguiste, écrivait : " Le swahili, idiome des tribus côtières, est un langage primitif et non grammatical " ( Ombres sur la prairie, traduit du danois, Paris, 1962, p. 6 ). Ces idées n'ont certainement pas disparu d'une certaine vision touristique de l'Afrique de l'Est. Le terme swahili, voire kiswahili ( le ki- indique qu'il s'agit d'une langue ), est apparu dans les écrits des premiers voyageurs et missionnaires européens en Afrique orientale et australe au milieu du XIXe siècle. Le kiswahili était la langue de Zanzibar, et Zanzibar était pour beaucoup une île des Mille et une nuits. Au milieu du XXe siècle, le kiswahili est devenu la langue d'un grand pays, la Tanzanie, né de l'union entre le Tanganyika et Zanzibar. Cette langue, qui était perçue comme une langue de marins ou de commerçants côtiers musulmans, est aujourd'hui la langue d'un immense pays et demain peut-être de toute une région, l'Afrique de l'Est, depuis que le Kenya développe son enseignement. Le kiswahili a partie liée avec le panafricanisme et son avenir ne peut laisser indifférents les amis de l'Afrique. En faire une langue moderne a demandé un travail de près d'un siècle, dont ce livre rend compte. Dire le monde d'aujourd'hui - du rap à la science-fiction - dans une grande langue bantoue demeure un projet digne d'intérêt. Tel fut le rêve de Julius Nyerere !

Book A Fulfulde  Maasina    English   French Lexicon

Download or read book A Fulfulde Maasina English French Lexicon written by Donald W. Osborn and published by MSU Press. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 709 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lexicon brings together lexical material from a wide range of published and non-published sources to create an extensive compilation of the vocabulary of Fulfulde as it is spoken in that part of central Mali known as Masina (in Fulfulde, Maasina). The Lexicon is intended primarily for non-Fulfulde speakers who are learning the language at the intermediate or advanced levels and who need access to a comprehensive reference source on Fulfulde vocabulary. Scholars, development workers, and others whose research or fieldwork involves use of the Fulfulde of Masina may find it helpful as well in clarifying nuances of meaning and standardized spelling for the less familiar terms they might encounter. It is also intended that the present work, beyond the matter of organizing vocabulary, will contribute significantly to the expanding lexicographical and linguistic investigations of Fulfulde.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a new perspective on sociolinguistics in Africa.

Divided into two sections, the book offers insight into the crucial topics such as: language vitality and endangerment, the birth of ‘new languages’, a sociolinguistics of the city, language contact and language politics. It spans the continent from Algeria to South Africa, Guinea-Bissau to Kenya and addresses the following broad themes: Language variation, contact and changeThe dynamics of urban, rural and youth languagesPolicy and practice This book provides an alternative to the Eurocentric view of sociolinguistic dynamics in Africa, and will make an ideal read or supplemental textbook for scholars and students in the field/disciplines of African languages and linguistics, and those interested in southern theory or ‘sociolinguistics in the margins’.

Book Portugais et langues africaines

Download or read book Portugais et langues africaines written by Margarida Maria Taddoni Petter and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2011 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le contact linguistique est le thème de ces Etudes afro-brésiliennes. Les six chapitres qui composent l'ouvrage discutent de propositions théoriques et épistémologiques qui permettent de mieux expliquer le contact des langues au Brésil. Ils traitent des conséquences du contact grammatical, tant au niveau syntaxique qu'au niveau phonologique, et examinent les effets du contact linguistique et culturel sur la sémantique et le lexique d'origine africaine dans le portugais parlé au Brésil. Les structures du portugais brésilien qui le distinguent du portugais européen peuvent être associées historiquement au contact massif de langues qui ont marqué les premiers siècles de l'histoire sociolinguistique du Brésil. Parmi ces structures, quelques-unes ont atteint un degré élevé de généralisation, touchant toutes les variétés de la langue parlée, y compris le portugais brésilien standard, tandis que d'autres sont restées cantonnées à ce qu'on appelle le portugais populaire brésilien, un ensemble de variétés qui incluent les parlers ruraux, depuis toujours plus réfractaires à l'influence de la norme urbaine. Cet ouvrage vise aussi à apporter une contribution supplémentaire à la mise en valeur de l'apport africain à la langue et à la culture brésiliennes et à susciter de nouvelles études sur les contacts de langues au Brésil.
