The majority of the papers were presented at the 27th Annual Conference of the Linguistic Association of Nigerian (CLAN) which was held at the Benue State University, Makurdi, Nigeria, and the 26th CLAN which was held at the University of Ibadan, Nigeria. The title derives from the theme of the 27th CLAN: Language Endangerment: Globalisation and the Fate of Minority Languages in Nigeria. A large number of the papers address the major theme of the conference, while the balance address various aspects of Nigerian linguistics, languages, communication, and literature. Fifty-one papers are included, ranging from sociolinguistics through applied linguistics to formal areas of linguistics which include phonology, morphology and syntax of Nigerian languages. Papers on language endangerment and language revitalisation strategies for safeguarding the vanishing indigenous tongues of Nigeria are the major focus, and the book serves as important reference material in various aspects of language and linguistic studies in Nigeria. 410 0$aFestschrift series (Port Harcourt, Nigeria) ;$vNumber 12. 606 $aEndangered languages$zNigeria 606 $aLinguistic minorities$zNigeria 606 $aLanguage and culture$zNigeria 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEndangered languages 615 0$aLinguistic minorities 615 0$aLanguage and culture 676 $a408.9 702 $aNdimele$b Ozo-mekuri 712 02$aLinguistic Association of Nigeria, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465677203321 996 $aLanguage endangerment$92213773 997 $aUNINA
