'A valuable source of information and examples...amply illustrated with examples of languages ... a comprehensive and systematic presentation'. International Review of Applied Linguistics
Book Description
Frank Palmer's new book is a typological survey of grammatical roles, such as Agent and Patient, and grammatical relations, such as Subject and Direct Object. A great wealth of examples is used to show that the grammatical systems of the familiar European languages are far from typical of many of the world's languages.
