Expressive Morphology in the Languages of South Asia explores the
intricacies of the grammars of several of the languages of the
South Asian subcontinent. Specifically, the contributors to this
volume examine grammatical resources for shaping elaborative,
rhyming, and alliterative expressions, conveying the emotions,
states, conditions and perceptions of speakers. These forms, often
referred to expressives, remain relatively undocumented, until now.
It is clear from the evidence on contextualized language use that
the grammatically artistic usage of these forms enriches and
enlivens both every day and ritualized genres of discourse. The
contributors to this volume provide grammatical and sociolinguistic
documentation through a typological introduction to the diversity
of expressive forms in the languages of South Asia. This book is
suitable for students and researchers in South Asian Languages, and
language families of the following; Dravidian, Indo-Aryan, Iranian,
Sino-Tibetan and Austro-Asiatic.
