OUTLINES OF A NUER GRAMMAR by Fr. J. P. CRAZZOLARA marks an invaluable contribution to our understanding of the Nuer language, a key member of the “Jii-family” of Nilo-Saharan languages. Out-of-print since 1933, this pioneering work remains unsurpassed to this day in scope, clarity and detail. It explains and tracks, for example, five distinct elementsof verbal inflection, including relative intonation.
