✦ Synopsis

Publisher: Max Planck Institute of Psycholinguistics - Nijmegen.
Number of pages: 100.

We already have the Lao Grammar, by the same author. However, you need to fully understand the subtlies of verbs, and particularly, multiverbs formation to really master the Lao language.
This work goes to the kernel of the problem, starting with a sentence: "the words of a merchant giving a sales pitch for her sausages". Your Lao melts down facing such a sentence. It looks, as the author correctly states, a mere ‘string of verbs’.
