A Dictionary of the Grebo Language (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from A Dictionary of the Grebo Language The following collection of words has been made during a connection of twenty-two years with the Episcopal Mission at Cape Palmas. Its publication has been delayed partly by a press of duties which left com paratively little time for such work, and partly from the conviction that a good degree of familiarity with a language is essential to any reliable vocabulary of it. It is still incomplete; but so far as it goes it may be relied upon as correct. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

A Grebo-English Dictionary
Originally published in 1968, this dictionary of Grebo, one of the Kru languages spoken in South-west Liberia, will be of value not only to those who are concerned with using the language, but also to scholars engaged in comparative studies; the latter will have here a comprehensive and reliable body of data, presented in an eminently usable form. All the Grebo material is tone-marked, a point of particular importance in a language which is one of the few in West Africa that distinguishes four tone-levels.
