APPLICATIVE CONSTRUCTIONS IN SOME BANTU LANGUAGES

by Misah_Natumanya

This page contains data used my master's thesis: Morpho-Phonological and Syntactic Patterns of Applicative Constructions in Runyankore-Rukiga.

It is purposely constructed to provide more information about applicative constructions in Bantu languages. The information provided, is paramount in availing morpho-phonological, syntactic and semantic comparisons between applicative formations in Runyankore-Rukiga and other Bantu Languages.
