Atong is a Tibeto-Burman language spoken in Northeast India and
Bangladesh. In this dictionary, Seino van Breugel provides a
rigorous, well-illustrated and well-referenced lexical description
of the language, making this book of great interest and value to
general linguists, typologists, as well as area specialists and
cultural anthropologists. Comprising not only of an Atong-English,
but also an English-Atong dictionary, as well as semantic lexica,
this volume is one of the most thorough lexical descriptions of a
Bodo-Garo language to date. The grammatical lexica allow the reader
quick access to lists of members of the various Atong word classes,
collocations and idiomatic expressions. The grammatical compendium
makes this book self-contained, while its many references link it
to the rest of the author's corpus on the Atong language. The
appendix of photos not only provides visual illustrations to many
of the Atong dictionary entries, but also offers the reader a
glance at the physical environment in which the language is spoken.
