Download Southeast Asian Languages and Literatures Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
This work is a guide to the languages and literatures of Southeast Asia, a huge region, almost as large as western and eastern Europe combined, with a multitude of ethnic groups, languages, religions, social structures and governments. The area is home to almost 450 million people speaking hundreds of different languages and even more dialects. There are four major independent language families of which Malay, and its Indonesian forms, is the most important and is considered to be the world's fourth largest language. Despite the size and diversity of the regions, there is a striking cultural cohesion, and this bibliographical survey shows the languages and literatures in their rich and historical depth, wide thematic range and stylistic variety, drawing upon indigenous and western sources.

Download Cambodian Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Cambodian is in many respects a typical Southeast Asian language, whose syntax at least on first acquaintance seems to approximate that of any SVO pidgin. On closer acquaintance, however, because of the richness of its idioms, the language seems to be a forbiddingly alien form of Desesperanto - a language of which one can read a page and understand every word individually, and have no inkling of what the page was all about. Like many of the languages of its genetic (Austroasiatic) family, its basic root vocabulary seems to consist largely of sesquisyllabic or iambic words, although there are an enormous number of unassimilated borrowings from Indic languages (which seem to play the same role in Cambodian that Latinate borrowings do in English). Morphologically, Cambodian has a fairly elaborate system of derivational affixes, and it is possible that the genesis of many of the most common of these affixes is related to (and undoes) the constant reduction of unstressed initial syllables in sesquisyllabic words. Again like many of the languages of Southeast Asia, Cambodian exhibits in its lexicon a penchant for symmetrical decorative compounding, a phenomenon which is so marginally attested in Western languages that the phenomenon has received little attention in the typological literature.
