Pidgin and Creole Linguistics
Abstract
"...deserves a place on the bookshelves of everyone interested in creolization, grammaticalization, or contact-induced language change. It offers new insights and many fascinating problems concerning both the nature of grammaticalization and the grammaticalization-related mechanisms of creolization. The volume is remarkable also in two other respects, namely its low price and the wonderful front and back illustrations. This book can indeed be judged by its cover." Ingo Plag, Journal of Pidgin and Creole Studies 14:207. "...a very useful reference work and source for comparative data (...) it leads its readers to develop new and broader views on the fascinating phenomenon of grammaticalization; (iii) this volume is a significant contribution to the study of this process and its implications." Marlyse Baptista, Carrier Pidgin 26:22. "Both the importance of its topic and the high quality of the articles make this collection recommendanble for creolists, historical linguists and variationists... Baker & Syea deserves a place on the bookshelves of everyone interested in creolization, grammaticalization or contact-induced language change. It offers new insights on many fascinating problems concerning both the nature of grammaticalization and the grammaticalization-related mechanisms of creolization. The volume is remarkable also is two other aspects, namely its low price and the wonderful front and back illustrations. This book can indeed be judged by its cover."

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
