A grammar of Azeri

The language of Azerbaijan

This book is derived from a doctoral thesis completed at the School of Linguistics, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, La Trobe University, Melbourne, Australia, in May 1998. The original thesis explored a comparative analysis of the grammatical structures of Azeri, Turkish, English, and Persian, and a summary of this research was subsequently published as a book by Lincome Europa. Unlike the broader comparative work, the present volume focuses exclusively on the grammar of the Azeri language. It provides a detailed examination of Azeri grammatical structures while deliberately excluding phonological aspects. This book aims to serve as a specialized resource for linguists, language learners, and researchers interested in the structural features of Azeri, offering a comprehensive overview of its syntax, morphology, and grammatical patterns.
