New from Panini Press: Sprachgeist Guides for the Linguist on the Go!—Part VII
As any linguist knows, it’s useful—and sometimes vital—to get an accurate picture of a language you’re not a specialist in, and to do it quickly. Unfortunately, up to now, doing so has involved trying to plow through reference grammars, and we all know the problems with those! You can cut through all that and get all the really important information about a language—its Sprachgeist, if you will—with a volume from Panini Press’s continuing series! ❦पा
