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:
This volume presents a reference grammar of Jambi Malay as spoken in villages across the river from Jambi City, Sumatra—especially Tanjung Raden and Mudung Darat. The Tanjung Raden variety represents Baso Seberang ‘language from across’, a term used by local speakers, while Mudung Darat, though also across the river, lies further inland. Beyond describing the phonology, morphology, syntax, and usage of these underdocumented rural varieties, the grammar compares them with urban Jambi Malay, highlighting variation, contact, and sociolinguistic dynamics in the region. It contributes to a deeper understanding of dialectal diversity and historical continuity among Malay-speaking communities in central Sumatra.
