Book Description
This book, originally published in 1966, deals mainly with morphemes and with grammatical and syntactic behaviour. Although some vocabulary material is contained in this volume, and some more in the Linguistic Survey of the Northern Bantu Borderland, vocabulary comparison itself plays little part. The volume presents an overall picture of the working of representative languages from each section of the Handbook and provides grammatical material which will help future students in classifying the languages to their typological as apart from their lexical features.

Book Description
'Grammar and Vocabulary of the Lau Language, Solomon Islands' by W. G. Ivens is a comprehensive guide to understanding the Oceanic language spoken in northeast Malaita. This book explores the Lau language in detail, discussing its history, usage, and grammatical structures. While Lau has some similarities to other Melanesian languages, it has a distinct character all its own. Ivens delves into the nuances of the language, including variations in pronunciation and usage that set it apart from other dialects in the region. Anyone interested in the Solomon Islands or Melanesian culture will find this book to be an invaluable resource for understanding the people who speak this fascinating language.

Book Description
The Mbugu (or Ma'á) language (Tanzania) is one of the few genuine mixed languages, reputedly combining Bantu grammar with Cushitic vocabulary. In fact the people speak two languages: one mixed and one closely related to the Bantu language Pare. This book is the first comprehensive description of these languages. It shows that these two languages share one grammar while their lexicon is parallel. In the distant past the people shifted from a Cushitic to a Bantu language and in the process rebuilt a language of their own that expresses their separate ethnic identity in a Bantu environment. This linguistic history is explained in the context of the intricate history of the people. The discussion of the processes that were involved in the formation of Ma'a/Mbugu is extremely relevant for both creole studies and for contact linguistics in general.
