Description: Explorations in Ethiopian Linguistics : Complex Predicates, Finiteness and Interrogativity, Paperback by Meyer, Ronny (EDT); Treis, Yvonne (EDT); Amha, Azeb (EDT), ISBN 3447102144, ISBN-13 9783447102148, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US The studies reflect recent research trends in the description of Ethiopian languages, all dealing with linguistic problems at the interface of morphosyntax and semantics/pragmatics. More precisely, they analyze interrogativity, complex predicates, and finiteness in Cushite, Semitic, Omotic, and Nilo-Saharan languages. Among the topics are interrogativity in Baskeet, complex predicates in Amharic counter-factual antecedent clauses, the grammaticalization of existential auxiliaries in Koorete, the asymmetry of verbal markedness in Libido, the finite-infinite dichotomy in a comparative Semitic perspective, and case marking in Amharic copular constructions.
