Book excerpt: Leb Lango is spoken by millions of Lango people who are geographically located in central Uganda, and politically located in northern Uganda. It can be traced back to, the languages spoken by their, Ateker and Galla/Oromo ancestors of Ethiopia during, BCE and Medieval Era before they finally arrived at Otuke Hills (Got Otuke) in Uganda. The language has since absorbed vocabulary from a huge number of sources which has seen a significant change to its orthography, grammar, and pronunciation. Currently, the language consists of a blend of many sources and what was originally leb lango. Most of the vocabulary in this dictionary is based on the modern day lango language which was compiled between 18th, 19th, 20th and 21st Century.

Download or read book Ugandan English written by Christiane Meierkord and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2016-10-20 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ugandan English is a variety that has scarcely been noticed in past research. This timely volume brings together African and European scholars in a first-ever collection of articles that offer comprehensive discussions of the historical and present-day sociolinguistics of English in Uganda and fine-grained analyses of the structural characteristics of and attitudes to this hitherto largely unknown variety. Using rich archive, corpus, and interview data as well as ethnographic and observational methods, the various contributions paint a comprehensive picture of Ugandan English as distinct from other East African Englishes and as characterized by nativisation despite a still strong exonormative orientation, reflecting the modern nation’s status as a post-protectorate under the influence of globalisation. Apart from advancing our understanding of Ugandan English itself, the individual chapters contribute to theoretical debates on language contact and variation as regards the influence of substrate languages, founder populations, language ideologies and socio-economic factors.
Download or read book Practical Orthography of African Languages written by International African Institute and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-27 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first edition of the Practical Orthography of African Languages was a best-seller and this and the following volume re-issues the second edition, in English and French. Originally published in 1930, it provided an invaluable solution to the problem of finding a practical and uniform method of writing African languages. The volume is bound with a small pamphlet which analyses the information on the Semitic and cushitic languages of Eritrea, Ethiopia and the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan. Related languages are grouped together into larger sections which have some linguistic significance. A further pamphlet, the Distribution of the Nilotic and Nilo-Hamitic Languages of Africa, describes the relationship between languages and dialects. For each language, data are given on locality, number of speakers, use for educational and religious purposes and the extent of vernacular literature. The linguistic material is set out in phonetic script with tone marks, though reference is made to current standard orthoraphies where these exist.

Download or read book Reciprocals written by Zygmunt Frajzyngier and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2000 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theoretical issues addressed in the present volume are semantic and cognitive properties of reciprocal events, syntactic properties of reciprocals, and the relationship of reciprocals to other grammatical categories. Several papers discuss the history of reciprocal constructions, offering alternative hypotheses regarding the grammaticalization of reciprocals. The formal, functional, typological and historical approaches in the present volume complement each other, contributing together to the understanding of forms, and syntactic and semantic properties of reciprocal markers. Several papers in the present volume make a double contribution to the problems of reciprocal constructions: they provide new descriptive data and they address theoretical issues at the same time. The languages discussed include: English, Dutch, German, Greek, Polish, Nyulnyulan (Australia), Amharic (Ethio-Semitic), Bilin (Cushitic), Chadic languages, Bantu, Halkomelem (Salishan), Mandarin, Yukaghir and a number of Oceanic languages. The volume also includes a study of grammaticalization of reciprocals and reflexives in African languages.

Download or read book Ilocano Dictionary and Grammar written by Carl Ralph Galvez Rubino and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2000-12-01 with total page 868 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This root-based dictionary of the Ilocano language is the most comprehensive dictionary produced of Ilocano (Iloko), the lingua franca of Northern Luzon, and historically the native language of the majority of Filipino immigrants to the United States. The body of the dictionary includes entries for roots and affixes with illustrative sentences, idioms, common derivations, and scientific names (when applicable). Ilocano synonyms are also furnished when appropriate. Derived words that undergo morphological fusion are listed as separate entries to facilitate lexical searches. There is also an affix cross-reference list to help the beginning student recognize root words. Unlike most dictionaries of Philippine languages, it has an extensive English to Ilocano section, information on the pre-Hispanic syllabary, and language maps of the Philippines showing where the largest concentration of Ilocano speakers reside.
