Mawng?s gender system has a strong semantic basis and plays an important role in the construction of meaning in discourse. Gender agreement in verbs is frequently lexicalized, creating idioms called lexicalised agreement verbs that are structurally similar to noun-verb idioms. This book will be of interest to anyone interested in nominal classification or cross-linguistic approaches to idioms. 410 0$aPacific linguistics ;$vVolume 642. 606 $aMaung language$xGrammatical categories 606 $aMaung language$xGender 606 $aMaung language$xNominals 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMaung language$xGrammatical categories. 615 0$aMaung language$xGender. 615 0$aMaung language$xNominals. 676 $a499/.15 700 $aSinger$b Ruth$c(Linguist),$01044480 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464450503321 996 $aThe dynamics of nominal classification$92470167 997 $aUNINA
