Hawai'I Creole English A Typological Analysis of the Tense-Mood-Aspect System

Are there common specific patterns in the Tense-Mood-Aspect systems of creoles? Do creoles constitute a structural type of language? This in-depth synchronic description of the Tense-Mood-Aspect system of contemporary Hawai'i Creole English is a language-internal analysis based on extensive firsthand data, both written and spoken. The language variety has been used as a basis for major linguistic hypotheses - a strength of this book is the use of a language-independent typological framework, placing the system in a cross-linguistic perspective.Velupillai, Viveka is the author of 'Hawai'I Creole English A Typological Analysis of the Tense-Mood-Aspect System' with ISBN 9780333993408 and ISBN 0333993403.
