Kurukh Grammar

Beschreibung

A landmark in descriptive linguistics, Ferdinand Hahn's Kurukh Grammar opens a rare window onto the intricate structure of the Kurukh language. Every page brings the reader closer to the heart of an indigenous tongue, once spoken across the hills and forests of central India. Precision meets passion here. Hahn's meticulous analysis-rooted in the scholarly rigour of 19th century language studies-offers a clear, accessible guide for anyone seeking to understand the patterns, rules, and unique features that define Kurukh. For language researchers, students of comparative linguistics, or those devoted to indigenous language preservation, this volume stands as an indispensable reference. Kurukh Grammar is more than a technical treatise; it is a testament to the enduring resilience of cultural identity. Hahn's work, long recognised among academic linguistics resources, remains vital for modern readers interested in language structure analysis or historical linguistics study. As a cornerstone among Ferdinand Hahn's works, it invites both casual enthusiasts and classic-literature collectors to rediscover a linguistic heritage at risk of fading from memory. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
