Language: EnglishThis volume constitutes the third installment of a four-part collection containing syntactic sketches of languages in the Mixtecan family of Otomanguean. These languages are spoken in southern Mexico in the states of Oaxaca and Guerrero.
The present volume contains sketches of two Mixtec languages. Alacatlatzala Mixtec belongs to the Guerrero subgroup of lowland languages, and Diuxi-Tilantongo Mixtec belongs to the Eastern Highlands group. It also contains a description of Cuicatec, a language closely related to Mixtec and spoken in the area immediately northeast of it. The Cuicatec sketch is somewhat shorter than the Mixtec sketches because it is based solely on an analysis of published material, rather than on fieldwork carried out by the author.
These sketches follow closely the outline used in the two earlier volumes (Bradley and Hollenbach 1988, 1990).1 The structure of each language is presented with a minimum of theory, numerous examples, and illustrative text material at the end.
