INHALT Sean Allison: Linguistic evidence for the islamization of the Makary Kotoko by the Kanuri Sergio Baldi: Les emprunts arabes en dangaleat Richard Gravina: Classification and reconstruction in Chadic Biu-Mandara A Olga Stolbova: Secondary laterals in Chadic Gábor Takács: The Afro-Asiatic background of the North Bauchi consonant system I REZENSION “The volumes [III, IV] may be recommended to all Chadicists, and to scholars making research in Afro-Asiatic languages, but also to general linguists interested in topics such as predication focus, verbal extensions, spatial relations and TAM system. Both volumes contain a valuable collection of language data which is accessible to non-Chadicists becuase [sic!] most papers provide morphological glosses and use IPA symbols.“ (Izabela Will in „Studies of the Department of African Languages and Cultures“ 42/2008, 82-86)
