Abstract: | |||||
This is a description of the grammar, and more
especially the syntax, of the Gela language. Gela
is a Melanesian language of the Central Solomon
Islands. Though there are at least eighteen distinct
Melanesian languages. in the Solomon Islands, few of
them have bean subjected to systematic linguistic
analysis.
The structure of Gala sentences is here described
in terms of simple sentences and combinations of them
into complex sentences. The basic, constituents of
simple sentences are described in Part One. Part
Two deals with various expansions and elaborations of
there basic constituents. Part Three considers ways
in which the resulting simple sentences combine to
form complex sentences.
