"This companion offers a unique introductory study of linguistics in India. Well supplemented with sample problems and linguistic puzzles to bolster analytical skills and logical reasoning, it promotes a unique inquiry-based approach to learning linguistics. The volume looks at all the major subdisciplines of linguistics, including phonetics, phonology, morphology, semantics, syntax, and the interdisciplinary domains of psycholinguistics and neurolinguistics. It provides a wealth of data from many Indianlanguages belonging not only to the primary language families present in the country -- Indo-Aryan, Dravidian, Austro-Asiatic, and Tibeto-Burman -- but also from the endangered languages of the Tai-Kadai family of Assam and the Greater Andamanese family.The author gives a holistic view of the linguistic landscape of India and fills a significant gap in the study of the lesser-known languages of South Asia. It will be an excellent resource for students and researchers of Indian languages, cultural studies, South Asian studies, and all branches of linguistics"--
