The Morphosyntax of Complement-Head Sequences: Clause Structure and Word Order Patterns in Kwa - Oxford Studies in Comparative Syntax
Aboh, Enoch Olade (Professor of Linguistics, Professor of Linguistics, University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands)
This is the first book on the syntax of the Niger-Congo language family, which includes most of the languages of sub-Saharan Africa. Aboh, who is a native speaker of one of the languages (Gungbe) discussed, analyses different aspects of the syntax of the Kwa language group. Aboh also suggests how grammatical pictures for these languages can shed some light on Universal Grammar in general.
