A Short Grammar of the Shilluk Language (Classic Reprint) - Tapa dura

Sinopsis

Excerpt from A Short Grammar of the Shilluk Language

The Shilluk country is situated in the Anglo Egyptian Sudan; it extends along the west bank of the White Nile from Kaka in the north to Lake No in the south; besides this there are several Shilluk villages along the banks of the lower Sobat, chiefly on the northern side.

This little book is an epitome of my researches in the Shilluk language made during a stay in the Shilluk country and in Khartoum from August 1910 to the end of October 1910. It is based on a larger collection of folklore, which will be edited within a few 'months, together with a grammar and dictionary.
