| dc.description.abstract | Not much has been written on the Kigiryama language. So far I have found nothing written on demonstratives. This project is about the study of demonstratives in Kigiryama. It is intended to describe the form and function of Kigiryama demonstratives in discourse. Kigiryama demonstratives have a complex of functions in the discourse .In addition to working as demonstratives they also work as definite articles, reference markers in anaphora, relativizers, and emphasis indicators to mention the most important ones. This means that Kigiryama demonstratives, playa big role in Kigiryama discourse, hence some research was necessary. I have worked on a few functions and I think more research in the future will be of great use. It is my great hope and desire that this study will be very useful for Bible translation and other literary works both for Kigiryama speakers and foreigners interested in the language. | en_US |
