The structure of Dagaare

This book grew out of Dagaare field methods courses at the University of Trondheim, Norway and at Stanford University. The monograph covers basic aspects of the phonology, morphology, syntax and semantics of Dagaare, such as vowel harmony, tone, the noun class system, serial verbs and other complex constructions. Some sociolinguistic information about this northern Ghanaian language is also included. It is one of the first monographs on the language by a native speaker.
