Pages : 362
Book Description
Excerpt from Introductory Sketch of the Bantu Languages It is well ta state at the outset that this little book makes no pretensions to originality. It has not, in all cases, been possible to give detailed references for statements which may be recognised as derived from one or other of the standard authorities (they are not numerous) on the subject. Sometimes, in the course of studies covering, intermittently, a period of some thirty years, one assimilates an idea so thoroughly as to forget where one first picked it up; sometimes, too, doing first-hand work at a language, one may, unknowingly, arrive at facts or deductions already recorded. In all such cases, the original owners are requested to believe that no misappropriation was intended. It may be as well to state that the languages at which I have worked in situ, that is to say, in the countries where they are spoken, are Nyanja, Swahili, Zulu, and, in a lesser degree, Giryama and Pokomo. Some others I have, to a certain extent, studied from the inside, with the help of books. It will, I hope, be sufficiently clear from the title that the present work is only an "Introduction" and does not in any respect seek to enter into competition with those of Bleek, Professor Meinhof, Father Torrend and Sir Harry Johnston. I am under great obligations, more or less, to all four, though compelled to differ, occasionally, with all respect, from each; but I venture to think I have occupied some ground not completely covered by any of them, yet important from the beginner's point of view.
