From Utterances to Speech Acts

By Mikhail Kissine

"Kissine offers a new theory of speech acts which is philosophically sophisticated and builds on work in cognitive science, formal semantics, and linguistic typology. This highly readable, brilliant essay is a major contribution to the field."

--François Recanati, Institut Jean-Nicod

Title: A Topical Outline of Georgian Grammar
Written By: Julian Granberry
Series Title: LINCOM Studies in Caucasian Linguistics 18
Description:

A Topical Outline of Georgian Grammar presents all of the basic grammar of the language of Sakartvelo (Georgia), an important and very modern southern European, northern Near Eastern language spoken by some 5 million people to the south of Russia and the immediate north of Armenia and Turkey. The language has a vibrant, important literature with its beginnings in 450 A.D. and continuing to the present day.

The book can be used both as a first learning tool for the beginner as well as a reference grammar for the more experienced user. It will enable the learner to begin reading in a short period of time and can be used at any time by all users as a handy look-up volume on any point in Georgian grammar. Grammar points are presented topically: The Alphabet; Grammatical Categories, Case Usage and Word Order; Nouns and their Declensions; Adjectives; Adverbs; Interrogatives; Numerals; Conjunction, Particles, and Interjections; Pronouns; Postpositions; and an Introduction to the Georgian Verb, containing full conjugational examples of all the classes of Georgian verbs.

The book is particularly recommended for those language learners who prefer a concentrated yet complete grammar rather than the slower lesson-by-lesson approach.
