Synopsis

Originally published in 1968, this dictionary of Grebo, one of the Kru languages spoken in South-west Liberia, will be of value not only to those who are concerned with using the language, but also to scholars engaged in comparative studies; the latter will have here a comprehensive and reliable body of data, presented in an eminently usable form. All the Grebo material is tone-marked, a point of particular importance in a language which is one of the few in West Africa that distinguishes four tone-levels.
