Greeting Death “Sitting Up:” How Children’S Literature Provides Modern Death Education, Reilly Kendrick Apr 2026

Investigating The Relationship Between Noun Classes And Plant Folk Taxonomy In Chasu Language Of Kilimanjaro Region In Tanzania, Peter Rabson Mziray

Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences

The current study investigates the relationship between noun classes and plant folk taxonomy in Chasu (G 22).
