It analyzes spontaneous speech data from two varieties spoken in Aruba and Curac?ao. The author examines structural features so far unexplored in the areas of phonology, morphology, syntax, and aspects of sentential semantics. Particular attention is given to nominal classifiers, non-pro-drop syntactic constructions, and absolute tense marking, traits that are rarely described in regards to Creole or Romance languages. Researchers interested in formal analyses of Papiamentu, Creole languages, and in language contact will find this book an indispensable tool. 410 0$aGrammars and Sketches of the World's Languages ;$v17. 517 3 $aA Creole Language of the Caribbean Area 606 $aPapiamentu language$xGrammar 606 $aLanguage and linguistics 606 $aLinguistics 615 0$aPapiamentu language$xGrammar. 615 0$aLanguage and linguistics. 615 0$aLinguistics. 676 $a427.972986 700 $aCastillo$b Yolanda Rivera$01788601 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 912 $a9910974198103321 996 $aA Description of Papiamentu$94323649 997 $aUNINA
