{"product_id":"case-and-agreement-in-abaza-9781556711350","title":"Case and Agreement in Abaza","description":"Abaza, a little-documented Northwest Caucasian language, exhibits an extensive agreement system. This book, the result of field work carried out by Brian O'Herin, is both descriptive and analytical. As a descriptive work, it provides thorough coverage of a significant subsystem of Abaza grammar--the agreement system. Abaza exhibits morphological agreement between a noun and its possessor, between a postposition and its object, and between a verb and virtually all verbal arguments, resulting in multiple agreement relationships. As an analytical work, Case and Agreement in Abaza provides a unified analysis of the agreement system within the theory of Principles and Parameters, demonstrating how a variety of structures (causative, applicative, inverted, etc.) can be accounted for within a single simple analysis. O'Herin's work is valuable for those interested in descriptions of languages of the Caucasus, as well as for syntacticians, particularly those interested in agreement systems and ergativity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Sil International, Global Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/24\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781556711350\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 306\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.64d","brand":"Brian O'Herin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52491350933685,"sku":"9781556711350","price":34.81,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_92215573-6895-4d08-abc4-d6b917234b3d.jpg?v=1777995876","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/case-and-agreement-in-abaza-9781556711350","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
