A Typological Grammar of Panare by Thomas E. Payne and Doris L. Payne, is a full length linguistic grammar written from a modern functional and typological perspective. The many remarkable characteristics highlighted in the grammar include a 'split-inverse' person marking system, transitivity-sensitive aspect and person-marking verb morphology, object incorporation, relatively nonconfigurational NP structure, both verb-initial and object-initial constituent orders, a complex system of clause chaining, switch reference, and a rich system of evidential and epistemic marking.Brill's Studies in the Indigenous Languages of the Americas5.Panare languageGrammarForeign language study / Native American LanguagesbisacshTypology (Linguistics)VenezuelaLanguagesPanare languageGrammar.Foreign language study / Native American LanguagesTypology (Linguistics)498/.425Payne Thomas Edward1951-164566Payne Doris L.1952-1635576NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910975228003321A Typological Grammar of Panare, a Cariban Language of Venezuela4323000UNINA
