A Grammar of Tuvan
This grammar represents the first in-depth, technical description of the Tuvan (also Tyvan, Tuvinian) language written in English and based on data collected directly from speakers of the language. Materials were collected by the authors in 1996 through 2002 in the Republic of Tuva, Russian Federation, and among the Tuvan diaspora of Western Mongolia. In addition to thorough technical explanations of complex grammatical structures, (e.g. vowel harmony, noun suffixes, pronouns, discourse structures) this book includes scores of annotated sentences, several annotated literary texts, a brief history of Tuvan linguistic studies, a collection of sound symbolic terms, and an overview of dialect differences (including the characteristic Russian-influenced dialect spoken in the capital city of Kyzyl).
