| Query: |
A standard textbook on historical linguistics, Hock's 1991 Principles
of Historical Linguistics, 2nd ed., p. 386, says: ''...it has been noted that verbs are crosslinguistically less easily borrowed than nouns...'' Is this a generally accepted claim? Can you suggest a basic bibliography where I could find documentation? Thanks, George Huttar |
