A Grammar of Eton

A Grammar of Eton is the first description of the Cameroonian Bantu language Eton. It is also one of the few complete descriptions of a North-western Bantu language. The complex tonology of Eton is carefully analysed and presented in a simple and consistent descriptive framework, which permits the reader to keep track of Eton's many tonal morphemes. Phonologists will be especially interested in the analysis of stem initial prominence, which manifests itself in a number of logically independent phenomena, including length of the onset consonant, phonotactic skewing and number of tonal attachmen.

  • "Review text: "This monograph is an admirable piece of work."Picus Sizhi Ding in: Linguist List 22.1573 "Insgesamt handelt es sich um einen wertvollen deskriptiven Beitrag zu einer noch immer wenig beschriebenen Gruppe des Bantu. Die vielen exzellent präsentierten Beispiele und das u. a. online verfügbare zusätzliche Material dürften künftige komparative Arbeiten sehr erleichtern und ausgesprochen anregend für weitere Forschungen sein."Anne Storch in: Orientalische Literaturzeitung 105 (2010) 4-5."
