It is a member of the Nambu subgroup of the Yam family of languages (also known as the Morehead-Upper Maro family). This grammar is the first published comprehensive description of a language in this subgroup. Nama has an interesting complex morphology with 21 nominal suffixes (17 case-marking) and 31 verbal prefixes and suffixes, indexing arguments (person\/number) and indicating tense (current, recent, remote) and aspect (perfective\/imperfective, inceptive, punctual, delimited, durative). Nama also has some linguistic features that are either very rare or not attested in other languages. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jeff Siegel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 311107661X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783111076614\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Walter de Gruyter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/24\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 369\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.53lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.88d","brand":"Jeff Siegel","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44213057159423,"sku":"9783111076614","price":126.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ad5b7d3c-b4b0-4657-8a52-08f9988406dc.jpg?v=1692111820","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-grammar-of-nama-jeff-siegel-9783111076614","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
