Nominal Pluralization and Countability in African Varieties of English (Hardcover): Susanne Mohr Nominal Pluralization and Countability in African Varieties of English (Hardcover)
Susanne Mohr
R4,140 Discovery Miles 41 400 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book is the first comprehensive analysis of nominal plural marking, its morphosyntax and semantics, across different African varieties of English. Mohr explores the rich diversity in the varieties and how different conceptualizations of the number category are realized across different cultures. The investigation of unstandardized noun plurals in Kenyan, Tanzanian, Ghanaian and Nigerian Englishes is based on a mixed methods design drawing on corpus linguistics, acceptability questionnaires and psycholinguistic experiments. In this vein, the book not only contributes to the description of each of these four varieties, but also sheds light on standardization processes and language change in New Englishes. Importantly, it is a plea for the triangulation of data and mixed methods approaches in World Englishes research, as the combination of these methods grants insight into unforeseen areas of language structures and use. This volume is a useful reference work for students and researchers in World Englishes, varieties of English and African Studies, as well as those interested in linguistic anthropology.

Mouth Actions in Sign Languages - An Empirical Study of Irish Sign Language (Hardcover, Digital original): Susanne Mohr Mouth Actions in Sign Languages - An Empirical Study of Irish Sign Language (Hardcover, Digital original)
Susanne Mohr
R4,063 Discovery Miles 40 630 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Mouth actions in sign languages have been controversially discussed but the sociolinguistic factors determining their form and functions remain uncertain. This first empirical analysis of mouth actions in Irish Sign Language focuses on correlations with gender, age, and word class. It contributes to the linguistic description of ISL, research into non-manuals in sign languages, and is relevant for the cross-modal study of word classes.
