Re: Which grammar would you like to see most?
Proto-Uralic
Cherokee
Lakhota
Finnish
My own grammar of my own language
I know some of these are out there. But these are the ones I want to see and cant get for various reasons.

Re: Which grammar would you like to see most?
Why, out of interest? If you're morally opposed to acquiring things for free on the internet, or something, fair enough, but all of those (apaert from possibly Proto-Uralic and of course your own conlang) can be acquired very easily.Dauyn wrote:Proto-Uralic

Re: Which grammar would you like to see most?
I'm not necessarily opposed to getting a Cherokee or Lakhota grammar online - I just haven't found one. I haven't found a Finnish grammar online, either. I'm also looking for something fairly detailed - those 400 page type monsters, as opposed to the 100 pg. grammar summaries.

Both Dakota, but it's grammatically very similar.

Re: Which grammar would you like to see most?
uz-translations.net = BEST WEBSITE EVER. I just downloaded a book that a professor recommended that I read, too. I do suggest having a look around on the rest of the website.
Re: Which grammar would you like to see most?
Get the New Lakota Dictionary. It's got a really really good grammar section in the middle, which isn't 400 pages, but it's thorough and clear, and you get the added bonus of having thousands of lexical entries with example sentences.
Re: Which grammar would you like to see most?
I already own that book. Not the comprehensive grammar I was hoping for, but...

One problem with uz-translations - a bunch of links are dead.
Re: Which grammar would you like to see most?
Absolutely not. I mean a Grammar of Primitve Elvish - Old Sindarin - Sindarin, not that.Dauyn wrote:You mean, this?Izo wrote:Oh, and I would see grammars of some Tolkienan tongues. Sindarin, Khuzdul and Adûnaic would be awesome. As it would be Westron, specially the Hobbit dialects of the North Farthing, Buckland and the Bree Land.
And a Grammar of Primitve Elvish - Old Sindarin - Sindarin would be kickass.

Re: Which grammar would you like to see most?
Have you bothered to try Ardalambion? It's pretty third world internet with a lot of bad text/background contrasts, but it's still very informative.
Re: Which grammar would you like to see most?
I know Ardalambion. In fact, it was the gate to Virtual Verduria and this forum, many years ago, when the world was young. But what we have there are articles (very interesting, indeed) but not a grammar.Neek wrote:Have you bothered to try Ardalambion?

Re: Which grammar would you like to see most?
I think I understand you then, Izo. There are lots of things that are close, almost like what you want, but not EXACTLY what you want. Like, I'd really like to see a complete list of ALL PIE roots, but there will never be such a thing (and don't get me started on Pokorny).
Re: Which grammar would you like to see most?
Exactly. The problem with any Elvish grammar is that there isn't any finished Elvish language. Not to mention the unevenness among Sindarins.Dauyn wrote:I think I understand you then, Izo.

Re: Which grammar would you like to see most?
Loxian, from Enya's Amarantine a few years ago - details on it probably haven't been released for copyright reasons, or some such. What's on Wikipedia is essentially all there is. :/
I had a really good grammar PDF on Nivkh a few months ago, but I think I must have deleted it when clearing out my computer after having finished my dissertation. It came from a website dealing in old US Governmental language primers from something like the 1950s-1970s... if this sounds familiar to anyone, do share.

Re: Which grammar would you like to see most?
I would love to read a complete grammar of John Dee's Enochian. It is so unfortunate that most of the available information shows that it is a relexification of English.
