Conclusion -- $t Backmatter 330 $aThe questions as to why most languages appear to have more trouble borrowing verbs than nouns, and as to the possible mechanisms and paths by which verbs can be borrowed or the obstacles for verb borrowing, have been a topic of interest since the late 19th century. However, no truly substantial typological research had been undertaken in this field before the present study. The present work is the first in-depth cross-linguistic study on loan verbs and the morphological, syntactic and sociolinguistic aspects of loan verb accommodation. It applies current methodologies on database management, quantitative analysis and typological conventions and it is based on a broad global sample of data from over 400 languages and the typological data from the World Atlas of Language Structures (WALS). One major result of the present study is the falsification, on empirical grounds, of long-standing claims that verbs generally are more difficult to borrow than other parts of speech, or that verbs could never be borrowed as verbs and always needed a re-verbalization in the borrowing language. 410 0$aTrends in linguistics.$pStudies and monographs ;$v211. 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xVerbals 606 $aLanguage and languages$xForeign words and phrases 606 $aSociolinguistics 610 $aLanguage Change. 610 $aLanguage Contact. 610 $aTypology. 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xVerbals. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xForeign words and phrases. 615 0$aSociolinguistics. 676 $a415 686 $aES 570$2rvk 700 $aWohlgemuth$b Jan$01037207 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910826536503321 996 $aA typology of verbal borrowings$93915172 997 $aUNINA
