A Luhya Grammatical Sketch: Evidence from an Oral Narrative: Masters Thesis

By Lilian Miriam Ogesa Mutua

This book offers a compact descriptive grammar of the Luhya language from Kenya. Various grammatical categories as applied in this Bantu agglutinative language are well outlined e.g morphology, verbal inflection, syntax among others. An insight into the sociolinguistic aspect of societal gender and feminism in an african set-up is also well elaborated with evidence from an oral fable Simbi and Nasigufu. Furthermore, it aims at preserving this african oral language since most african languages are endangered and undocumented.
