First published in 1982, Languages of South Asia covers all
important languages and language groups of the so-called Indian
subcontinent (India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Nepal and
Bhutan). It concentrates on the more southern languages, that is
the Indo-Aryan, Dravidian and Munda groups; a brief survey of
Tibeto-Burman languages is also included. As well as giving a
description of the current status and character of each language,
Dr. Zograph goes into a detailed structural analysis of its
phonology, morphology and syntax. The problems of the historical
background of the modern languages, and their classification, are
also discussed. The book is supplemented by two language maps,
tables showing the main alphabets, a bibliography of reliable works
on the subject and an index of 350 language names used in the text.
This book will be of interest to students of language, linguistics
and South Asian studies.
