Abstract | This article is a summary of some phonological and morphosyntactic features of the Baram language. Baram is a severely endangered language spoken by a few fluent speakers. Most of the phonological features are like those of Nepali, the language of the wider communication and lingua franca of the nation. Despite the massive borrowing of lexical items, Baram has retained some morphosyntactic features. Some of them include derivation of nouns and adjectives, morphophonological features, directional prefixes attached to verbs among others. |
