A Grammar of Warrongo
Warrongo is an extinct Australian Aboriginal language that used to be spoken in northeast Australia. This volume is largely based on the rich data recorded from the last fluent speaker. It details the phonology, morphology and syntax of the language. In particular, it provides a truly scrutinizing description of syntactic ergativity - a phenomenon that is rare among the world's language. It also shows that, unlike some other Australian languages, Warrongo has noun phrases that are configurational. Overall this volume shows what can be documented of a language that has only one speaker.
A Grammar of Chiapas Zoque
This book provides a description of Chiapas Zoque, the language of the descendents of Mexico's oldest known civilization and whose inscriptions are the oldest known linguistic documents in Mesoamerica. This record of an unusual, vibrant, but critically endangered language will be an important resource for linguists of all theoretical persuasions.
Through the portal: The rise of the North King
“I just wanted a quiet life... But then I went through a portal to another world.” Thrown into a world full of magic, flying dragons and dangerous creatures, the protagonist finds himself in a land inhabited by powerful gods and mysterious races. As an ordinary citizen who does not even know the language, survival seems an impossible task. But with the awakening of an unusual ability -- the power to summon allies from the old world -- everything changes. With each new ally, the protagonist rises in the social ranks, turning the struggle to survive into a journey to the top. However, the kingdom is threatened by an invasion of monsters, and the fate of the North depends on him. “Do I really have to save this world? I just wanted to go home...” From ordinary citizen to King of the North - the fate of an entire land is in his hands. But when two worlds collide, who knows what the future will bring?
Organic Reaction Mechanisms 2017
Organic Reaction Mechanisms 2017, the 53rd annual volume in this highly successful and unique series, surveys research on organic reaction mechanisms described in the available literature dated 2017. The following classes of organic reaction mechanisms are comprehensively reviewed: • Reaction of Aldehydes and Ketones and their Derivatives • Reactions of Carboxylic, Phosphoric, and Sulfonic Acids and their Derivatives • Oxidation and Reduction • Carbenes and Nitrenes • Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution • Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution • Carbocations • Nucleophilic Aliphatic Substitution • Carbanions and Electrophilic Aliphatic Substitution • Elimination Reactions • Polar Addition Reactions • Cycloaddition Reactions • Molecular Rearrangements An experienced team of authors compile these reviews every year, so that the reader can rely on a continuing quality of selection and presentation.
Speech and Computer
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 24th International Conference on Speech and Computer, SPECOM 2022, held as a hybrid event in Gurugram, India, in November 2022. The 51 full and 9 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 99 submissions. The papers present current research in the area of computer speech processing including audio signal processing, automatic speech recognition, speaker recognition, computational paralinguistics, speech synthesis, sign language and multimodal processing, and speech and language resources.
The Left Periphery
This study of the interaction of syntax, pragmatics, and prosody in left peripheral positions focuses on two left dislocation constructions in Czech, Hanging Topic Left Dislocation and Contrastive Left Dislocation. The structure of the left periphery is delineated though a thorough description and analysis of these constructions with respect to their syntactic behavior, discourse function and prosody. Following recent work on the Syntax-Phonology interface, prosody in these constructions is shown to interact in interesting ways with the narrow syntax. Unexpected patterns of left-edge resumption are explained though the role of the PF component of the grammar.
