The Handbook of Austroasiatic Languages (2 vols)
The Handbook of the Austroasiatic Languages is the first comprehensive reference work on this important language family of South and Southeast Asia. Austroasiatic languages are spoken by more than 100 million people, from central India to Vietnam, from Malaysia to Southern China, including national language Cambodian and Vietnamese, and more than 130 minority communities, large and small. The handbook comprises two parts, Overviews and Grammar Sketches: Part 1) The overview chapters cover typology, classification, historical reconstruction, plus a special overview of the Munda languages. Part 2) Some 27 scholars present grammar sketches of 21 languages, representing 12 of the 13 branches. The sketches are carefully prepared according to the editors’ unifying typological approach, ensuring analytical and notational comparability throughout.

Austroasiatic Syntax in Areal and Diachronic Perspective
Austroasiatic Syntax in Areal and Diachronic Perspective elevates historical morpho-syntax to a research priority in the field of Southeast Asian language history, transcending the traditional focus on phonology and lexicon. The volume contains eleven chapters covering a wide range of aspects of diachronic Austroasiatic syntax, most of which contain new hypotheses, and several address topics that have never been dealt with before in print, such as clause structure and word order in the proto-language, and reconstruction of Munda morphology successfully integrating it into Austroasiatic language history. Also included is a list of proto-AA grammatical words with evaluative and contextualizing comments.

A Grammar of May

A Comparative Dictionary of Indian Austroasiatic Languages
This is a dictionary in which words from Indian Austroasiatic languages, Santhali, Munda and Khasi are match with Punjabi vocabulary. The main purpose of this project is to see if Punjabi is a member of Austroasiatic family of languages or the prevailing view holds according to which it is either in Indo-European or Dravidian groups of languages. Romani words (the language of European Gypsies who migrated from Punjab between 6th and 11th centuries) are also included to see the old forms of Punjabi words. This dictionary should provide an opportunity to linguistic scholars and other researchers to adjust their theoretical framework. This is an ongoing project and revised versions of this dictionary will be presented in the near future.
