Welcome to Nilo-Saharan!
This course is an extensive and popularly written introduction to Nilo-Saharan languages. It was created for two main goals:
- to collect all the available researches on the topic in one place
- to add broad explanations and commentaries when needed for the general audience
This also means that the targeted audience of the materials is dualistic:
- people with scientific background will find here a convenient entry point to the subject with the list of literature in the references for the advanced study on their own
- general audience will have the unique ability to understand what scientists are talking about and what is a true nature of languages
There is a huge need in a bridge between the language science community and people from other backgrounds so a rich picture of unity in diversity can be finally revealed!
