Full Description
Lahu is an important minority language of Southeast Asia, belonging to the Lolo-Burmese subgroup of the Sino-Tibetan language family. It is spoken by over 500,000 people in China, Burma, Thailand, Laos and Vietnam. This "English-Lahu Lexicon" (ELL) is a computer-aided but manually edited "reversal" of the author's monumental Lahu-English dictionary ("The Dictionary of Lahu", UCPL #111, 1988, xxv + 1436 pp.). "English-Lahu Lexicon" contains nearly 5400 head-entries and well over 10,000 carefully arranged subentries. Every Lahu expression is provided with a form-class designation to indicate its grammatical function. It contains eight useful appendices (e.g. Plant and Animal Names) round out the volume's 450 pages.
