Malagasy is an Austronesian language and dialect continuum spoken in Madagascar. This self-contained book is designed to take students with little or no knowledge of Malagasy to a moderately advanced level. It contains a grammatical sketch of the language (based on Rev. W. E. Cousin’s grammar) and forty-four reading selections with vocabulary, extensive notes, an English translation, and a composite glossary. The selections are varied in form, context, and vocabulary, and provide snapshots of the cultural life of the country.
