| contents | <p>Afro-Linguistics is a field within linguistics that studies language structures from an African perspective. No empirical results are provided; instead, a critical analysis method is employed to evaluate theoretical frameworks and methodologies used in the book. The review highlights themes such as the diversity of language structures within Africa and the importance of contextualizing African languages in global linguistics studies. The book underscores the need for more interdisciplinary research that integrates cultural, historical, and social dimensions into Afro-Linguistics studies. Researchers are encouraged to adopt a multidisciplinary approach when studying African languages, incorporating sociolinguistic and anthropological perspectives.</p> |
