The Berkeley Conference on Dutch Linguistics- 1993: 8 (PUBLICATIONS OF THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION FOR NETHERLANDIC STUDIES) - Hardcover

This volume deals with various aspects of the Dutch language, mainly synchronic, although the historical dimension is not completely forgotten. The articles range thematically from formal and functional approaches to issues in modern Dutch syntax to language comparison, language planning, and Dutch language in America. All in all, these eleven contributions represent an excellent selection of current work in Dutch linguistics by major scholars from abroad and this country. Copublished with the American Association for Netherlandic Studies.
