- Double-weighted statement
- This is the first substantial description of Tundra Nenets, an endangered Uralic language, destined for an international linguistic audience. It provides a thorough documentation of all the language’s major grammatical phenomena with a particular emphasis on syntax, since many syntactic aspects of the language have previously received little or no attention in the existing literature. The book is not formulated within a particular framework; it identifies and discusses issues which are of broad typological and theoretical interest. The rich body of examples is mostly from original fieldwork conducted over a number of years by Nikolaeva in various locations.
