Annotation

The papers in this volume on contact linguistics can be divided into eight groups: papers isolating a general grammatical category, contrasting its formal exponents in the languages under consideration; papers isolating and comparing linguistic forms or subsystems in different languages; and papers addressing: lexicography; translation problems; the relationship between disciplines; sociolinguistic topics; language teaching/learning; and theoretical or applied models.
