Possessive pronouns in Dóngola

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  24 December 2009

Extract

A detailed though somewhat unsophisticated account of Dóngola is that of Armbruster (1960). During 1975–6 I had the opportunity of working for short periods with a speaker of Dóngola, Mr. Ibrahim Abdel Karim, and there was little doubt that his speech was the dialect described by Armbruster. I paid particular attention to the possessive pronouns and found that both my observations and my interpretation differed in some important ways from those of Armbruster.
