Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
The volume crystalizes the Gregerson’s field work in the Kontum Province of Vietnam from 1968 to 1974, in collaboration with Rengao speakers Paul Hyum and Andre Ir. The result is a sketch grammar, a dictionary with over 6000 entries, and a text collection. Rengao is a North Bahnaric language within the Austroasiatic phylum: it features a typologically unusual tense-lax phonological contrast whose origins remain obscure, and an extensive “expressive” lexicon of onomatopoeic, ideophonic, and phonaesthemic forms integrel to the rich Rengao oral culture. The work also includes substbatial commentary on grammaticalization, borrowing and etymology.
