This book is a grammar of Mangghuer, a Mongolic language spoken by
approximately 25,000 people in China's northwestern Qinghai
Province. Mangghuer is virtually unknown outside China, and no
grammar of Mangghuer has ever been published in any language. The
book's primary importance is thus as a systematic grammatical
description of a little-known language. The book also makes a
significant contribution to comparative Mongolic studies. In
addition to the synchronic description of Mangghuer, extensive
comparison with other Mongolic languages is included, demonstrating
the genetic relationship of Mangghuer within that family. In the
course of describing Mangghuer linguistic structures, the book also
examines issues of interest to linguistic typologists.
