Book Synopsis The Genesis of Sri Lanka Malay by : Sebastian Nordhoff
Book excerpt: Sri Lanka Malay shows extreme language contact: Malay phonology and lexicon are squared with clearly Indian morphosyntax and semantics. Historical, anthropological, typological and structural approaches shed light on the complex genesis and rapid evolution of this language.
