{"product_id":"dongolese-nubian-charles-hubert-armbruster-9780521153140","title":"Dongolese Nubian: A Lexicon","description":"Dongolese is one of the dialects spoken by the Nubian peoples of the Sudan. Since it is a spoken and not a written language, there are difficulties in the way of collecting adequate material; the position is further complicated by the fact that most Nubians are bilingual and frequently lapse into Arabic when talking to a foreigner. Despite these obstacles, the late C. J. Armbruster was able, as an official of the Sudan Service in Dongola, to amass a great deal of material for investigation. This 1965 book is the result of years of close observation and analysis of the Dongolese conversations in which the author took part, or to which he attended; it is a monumental and authoritative work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles Hubert Armbruster\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 052115314X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521153140\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/26\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.25w x 0.60d","brand":"Charles Hubert Armbruster","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48216488673535,"sku":"9780521153140","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_10ba78e5-5e26-4bc4-b91d-d582b7116960.jpg?v=1771991333","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dongolese-nubian-charles-hubert-armbruster-9780521153140","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
