The 16 chapters include information on phonetics and phonology, nominal and verbal morphology, and syntax, as well as an ethnographic sketch of traditional life. A selection of texts is also included. It is the first published full study of a Nyulnyulan language.Mouton grammar library ;57.Bardi languageGrammarBardi languageTextbooks for foreign speakersEnglishAustralia, NorthernLanguagesAustralian Languages.Non-Pama-Nyungan.Reference Grammar.Bardi languageGrammar.Bardi languageEnglish.499/.15EE 1820rvkBowern Claire1977-772541MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910817436503321A grammar of Bardi4055602UNINA
