Anaphora in Akan: in M. E. Kropp Dakubu, G. Akanlig-Pare, E. Kweku Osam & Kofi K. Saah, (editors)

Abstract

The paper examines the devices that the Akan language uses to express anaphoric relations, especially, such notions as ‘X acts on X’ (reflexive), ‘Y acts on X and X acts on Y’ (reciprocal) and other relationships involving nominals in particular local domains that result in construing them as having the same referent.
