Book excerpt: Dhivehi, the language of the Maldives, has received little attention in the linguistic literature, and no other comprehensive grammar of the standard language has yet been published. This work describes the phonology, unique orthography, morphology, and syntax of standard Dhivehi. Plentiful examples with native orthography, Roman transliteration, and morpheme-by-morpheme glossing illustrate the various features of the language. This grammar will be of use both to linguists and to students of Dhivehi.

Book excerpt: Das vorliegende Buch besteht aus einer detaillierten deskriptiven und historisch-vergleichen-den Grammatik, die die erste systematische Beschreibung der bislang nur marginal behandelten Schriftsprache und ihrer vollig unbearbeiteten, unverschrifteten Dialekte darstellt. Sie wird erganzt durch einen Materialband (Band II), der das in der Arbeit ausgewertete Textmaterial enthalt (mundlich uberlieferte Folkloretexte; Kurzgeschichten und Marchen; Inschriften und Manuscripte des alteren Dhivehi im Uberblick). Die Studie kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass die bedeutendsten Unterschiede zwischen den maledivischen Dialekten die Morphologie betreffen, wobei sich die drei sudlichsten Dialekte als wesentlich archaischer und formenreicher erweisen als die Standardsprache von Male. Der konsequente Vergleich des Dhivehi mit dem Singhalesischen und mittelindischen Idiomen fuhrt zur Erkenntnis, dass die Trennung der Vorfahren der heutigen Malediver und Singhalesen sowie die erste Besiedlung der Malediven durch Indoarier um Jahrhunderte weit fruher stattgefunden haben muss, als dies von Wilhelm Geiger 1902 postuliert wurde.
