An Erromangan (Sye) dictionary
Crowley, Terry
PL 508
This volume represents the
most complete compilation to date of vocabulary in the Erromangan
(or Sye) language of southern Vanuatu, along with an English-Erromangan
finderlist. The introduction provides relevant background
to enable the reader to make maximum use of information contained
within dictionary entries, as well as discussing relevant
grammatical and sociolinguistic information. The dictionary
also includes separate discussions of personal names and names
of places in the Erromangan language. This volume is intended
as a supplement to An Erromangan (Sye) grammar by the same
author, as well as Ura: a disappearing language of Southern
Vanuatu, which is a description of the most closely related
language.
