Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the idea of mixed languages, which occur when peoples with different languages meet, mix their vocabularies and grammatical structures, and forge new hybrid tongues. The author begins by examining jargons - simplified communication systems that often develop when different language speakers interact, such as pidgin and creole languages. He then looks at mixed languages that have taken root and developed complex structures, such as Maltese, Hindustani, Romanny, and Persian. The author also presents Turkish as an extreme example of a mixed language, containing three distinct vocabularies, three grammars, and three pronunciations. Finally, the book discusses mixed languages in the context of Celtic and Romance languages, including English, whose vocabulary and grammar show evidence of mixing with other languages throughout history. Through these examples, the author argues that mixed languages are not linguistic anomalies, but rather represent the dynamic nature of language and the complex histories of peoples and cultures. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
