Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricacies of the Basque language, a unique linguistic entity that remains isolated from other language families. The author explores the language's agglutinative nature, a characteristic shared with other languages such as Hungarian and Turkish, where words are formed by adding suffixes to create complex meanings. The book also examines the Basque language's historical development, tracing its roots to the ancient Iberian language, though acknowledging the lack of definitive evidence to fully confirm this link. The author meticulously outlines the Basque grammatical system, shedding light on its unique structure and the ways in which it differs from more familiar languages. This includes a detailed exploration of the Basque verb, its conjugation, and the various ways it is used in different dialects. The book also examines the Basque language's rich vocabulary and its evolution over time, offering insights into its historical and cultural significance.
