‘A Linguistic Analysis of Zulu’ is the third publication in a series of analyses of Southern African languages. The other two books which have appeared are: ‘A Linguistic Analysis of Venda’ (1990); and ‘A Linguistic Analysis of Northern Sotho’ (1994 - with co-author L. J. Louwrens). ‘A Linguistic Analysis of Zulu’ deals with a detailed study of the morphology, phonology, syntax, semantics and tonology of the Zulu language. Reference is also made to discourse, cognitive and typological issues. Several innovative ideas have been introduced in the analysis of the various word categories and constructions, as well as in the description of the Zulu sound system.

Indeed, they appear in the same position as subject-agreement prefixes: they attach to the left of a tense marker and, together with the verb, follow a preverbal subject (which is, by assumption, located in Spec,TP). ...
