description | Moyu Yanjiu is a linguistic and ethnographic description of the Mak language (a Kam-Sui language in the Kadai phylum) and its speakers, who live in the Lingnan Buyi-Miao Autonomous Zone of Guizhou, China. It actually draws grammatical examples largely from (Ai-)Cham, which until now has been described as a separate language close to Mak, but which the author argues is merely a sister dialect of the same language. Following is a summary of the contents of the book, completed with an evaluation of its contents. |
