However, grammars of these languages, particularly those couched within theoretical frameworks of one kind of another, are few and far between. This book contributes directly to creole linguistics by providing a detailed study of different aspects of the syntax of Mauritian creole within the theoretical framework of Principles and Parameters (Chomsky, 1981) and Minimalism (1995). It gives the reader a detailed account of the structure of this language and insight into the nature of creole languages, with implications for current cartographic and minimalist thinking on the structure and derivation of phrases and clauses. It will appeal to researchers of grammar and syntax, language acquisition, contact linguistics and sociolinguistics."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aBloomsbury Studies in Theoretical Linguistics 606 $aCreole dialects$zMauritius 606 $aCreole dialects, French$zMauritius$xGrammar 606 $2Grammar, syntax & morphology 615 0$aCreole dialects 615 0$aCreole dialects, French$xGrammar. 676 $a447/.96982 700 $aSyea$b Anand$0972333 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462717703321 996 $aThe Syntax of Mauritian Creole$92258189 997 $aUNINA
