Sommario/riassunto

Dit boekje bevat 50 taalkundige puzzels die in de afgelopen jaren gebruikt zijn bij de Nederlandse Taalkunde-Olympiade. Taal is niet moeilijk te doorgronden. Al met een beperkt aantal puzzelstukjes kun je gaan kijken, vergelijken en nadenken. Heb je er ooit over nagedacht wat ver- in Nederlandse werkwoorden betekent? Of hoe een Japanner het meervoud vormt? Hoe je moet tellen in het Eskimo? En hoe het spijkerschrift ooit is ontcijferd?De puzzels laten je spelenderwijs kennismaken met de essentie van taal. Vijftig taalkundige problemen, van Nederland tot Australièˆ, uit dode en levende talen, op
