It is aimed at linguists of all stripes, especially typologists, historical linguists, and specialists in Egyptian-Coptic, Afroasiatic languages, or African languages. Uniquely, the contributions are written by both typologists and experts of Egyptian-Coptic and typologists. The former provide case studies dealing with particular aspects of the various phases of the Egyptian-Coptic language (e.g., COLLIER on conditional constructions), while the latter situate Egyptian-Coptic data in cross-linguistic perspective (e.g., those by GUELDEMANN and GENSLER). The volume also includes an introductory section that includes an overview of the Egyptian-Coptic language (HASPELMATH), a sketch of its sociohistorical setting (GROSSMAN & RICHTER), its relationship with language typology (RICHTER), and the way in which Egyptian-Coptic data should be presented to nonspecialists, focusing on transliteration and glossing (GROSSMAN & HASPELMATH).This is the first book to bring together language typology and the Egyptian-Coptic language in an explicit fashion.Empirical approaches to language typology ;Volume 55.Egyptian languageGrammar, ComparativeCoptic languageGrammar, ComparativeTypology (Linguistics)Electronic books.Egyptian languageGrammar, Comparative.Coptic languageGrammar, Comparative.Typology (Linguistics)493/.2Grossman EitanHaspelmath Martin1963-Richter Tonio SebastianMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910464445403321Egyptian-Coptic linguistics in typological perspective2456645UNINA
