In this single volume, George Campbell describes over 100 languages. The emphasis is on the world's major languages--those with over one million speakers. The articles are ordered alphabetically and each has a standardized structure for easy reference use: general historical and sociolinguistic introduction, the writing system, the sound system, and the grammatical system. --From publisher's description.
