Publisher's Synopsis

""A Grammar Of The Yoruba Language"" is a book written by Samuel Crowther in 1852. The book is a comprehensive guide to the Yoruba language, which is spoken in West Africa. Crowther, who was a Yoruba himself, provides a detailed analysis of the language's grammar, syntax, and vocabulary. He also includes examples of Yoruba phrases and sentences to help readers understand the language better. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of the language, such as pronunciation, nouns, verbs, and adjectives. Crowther's work was groundbreaking at the time, as it was one of the first attempts to create a standard grammar for the Yoruba language. The book is still considered an important resource for scholars and students of Yoruba language and culture today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
