This book was released on 2001 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The book contains solutions to long-standing problems in the phonology and morphology of comparative Dravidian and proposes many seminal and original ideas. In addition to critical surveys on developments in comparative phonology, morphology, the subgrouping of the languages, and on the contact and convergence between Indo-Aryan and Dravidian, there are chapters on types of sound change and phonological and morphological issues in Dravidian, as well as the methodology required to address them. Also included is the author's groundbreaking proposal for a laryngeal for Proto-Dravidian, by means of which he was able to address several grammatical and etymological problems in later linguistic developments."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Synopsis Studies in the Historical Phonology of Asian Languages by : William G. Boltz

This book was released on 1991-01-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume owes its genesis to a series of lectures on various aspects of the historical phonology of Asian languages, sponsored by the Asian Linguistics Colloquium of the Department of Asian Languages and Literature of the University of Washington, in Seattle. The volume includes papers on both theoretical and applied aspects of Asian linguistics, and topics examined include vowel harmony, dialect variation and "inherent variability," historical reconstruction based on written records, historical reconstruction based on the comparative method, accentology, and language standardization. While some of the papers are comparative in nature, others deal with effects of language contact on phonological systems. Languages and language families dealt with are Indo-Aryan, Dravidian, Altaic, Chinese, Uralic, Korean, and Tai.
Book Synopsis A Comparative Grammar of the Dravidian Languages by : Mikhail Sergeevich Andronov
Download or read book A Comparative Grammar of the Dravidian Languages written by Mikhail Sergeevich Andronov and published by Otto Harrassowitz Verlag. This book was released on 2003 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to their crucial role one of the major tasks in modern South Asia linguistics is the research of the historical view of the Dravidian Languages. A knowledge of the Dravidian language structure in all its development stages, from their earliest beginnings to today, is necessary for understanding numerous fundamental aspects with the emergence of the indoarian, Munda and other languages of south Asia and of course for the history of the Dravidian language family itself. The Comparative Grammar forms an important part of the historical linguistics. Yet Richard Caldwell's Comparative Grammar of Dravidian or South Indian Family of Languages (London, 1856, 2/1875, 3/1913) is outdated. An up to date comparative grammar of the Dravidian languages therefore was long overdue. With the work of the renowned Russian Dravidian scientist Mikhail S. Andronov, in which the over 80 known, investigated and described languages and dialects of the Dravidian language family are taken in consideration, this gap has been closed.

Book Synopsis Languages and Nations by : Thomas R. Trautmann
Download or read book Languages and Nations written by Thomas R. Trautmann and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2006-11-04 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British rule of India brought together two very different traditions of scholarship about language, whose conjuncture led to several intellectual breakthroughs of lasting value. Two of these were especially important: the conceptualization of the Indo-European language family by Sir William Jones at Calcutta in 1786—proposing that Sanskrit is related to Persian and languages of Europe—and the conceptualization of the Dravidian language family of South India by F.W. Ellis at Madras in 1816—the "Dravidian proof," showing that the languages of South India are related to one another but are not derived from Sanskrit. These concepts are valid still today, centuries later. This book continues the examination Thomas R. Trautmann began in Aryans and British India (1997). While the previous book focused on Calcutta and Jones, the current volume examines these developments from the vantage of Madras, focusing on Ellis, Collector of Madras, and the Indian scholars with whom he worked at the College of Fort St. George, making use of the rich colonial record. Trautmann concludes by showing how elements of the Indian analysis of language have been folded into historical linguistics and continue in the present as unseen but nevertheless living elements of the modern.
