It details the massive restructuring of syntactic and semantic organization, the calquing of grammatical patterns, and the direct borrowing of inflectional morphology, including, in some of these languages, the direct borrowing of even entire morphological paradigms. The in-depth analysis of contact among the genetically related Lowland Mayan languages presented in this volume serves as a highly relevant case for theoretica 410 0$aAmsterdam studies in the theory and history of linguistic science.$nSeries IV,$pCurrent issues in linguistic theory ;$vVolume 328. 606 $aLanguages in contact$xMaya 606 $aMayan languages$xSocial aspects 606 $aSociolinguistics 615 0$aLanguages in contact$xMaya. 615 0$aMayan languages$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aSociolinguistics. 676 $a306.44/0972 700 $aLaw$b Danny$f1980-$01529904 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786560903321 996 $aLanguage contact, inherited similarity and social difference$93774459 997 $aUNINA
