| dc.description.abstract | Nigerian Arabic displays an interesting interplay of maintenance of inherited structures along with striking contact-induced innovations in a number of domains. This chapter summarizes the various domains where contact-based change has occurred, concentrating on those less studied not only in Arabic linguistics, but in linguistics in general, namely idiomatic structure and an expanded functionalization of demonstratives. Methodologically, comparative corpora are employed to demonstrate the degree of contact-based influence. | |
