VAN DER VECHT SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 451 ir SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Folklife Studies Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.

    The Genesis of the Muslim Community in • Ceylon (Sri Lanka): a Historical Summary

    THE GENESIS OF THE MUSLIM COMMUNITY IN • CEYLON (SRI LANKA): A HISTORICAL SUMMARY AMBER ALI Research on the historical ongms of the Ceylon Muslim com­ munity is yet an unchartered field in the overall history of the island. Ramanathan's "The Ethnology of the Moors of Ceylon,"1 I. L. M. Abdul Azeez's criticism on Ramanathan's thesis,2 Siddi Lebbe's wrih ings on the subject in his Muslim Necan3 and Cassim's llankaic CO:.. nako.J' Carittiram,4 based almost entirely on Siddi Lebbe's works, are all, considering the context and spirit in which they were written (as shown below), open to the charge of historical bias and partisan­ ship. Van Sanden's Sonahars is a comprehensive but an uncritical presentation of all hearsay evidence and is overtly apologetic of the British colonial rule over the Muslims. Goonewardena's "Some Notes On The History of the Muslims In Ceylon Before the British Occupa­ tion"6 and de Silva's "Portuguese Policy Towards Muslims"7 are the only scholarly works available on the period before 1800, but they too have their shortcomings. The former, as the title itself suggests, is only a peripheral treatment limited by the author's inaccessibility to Arabic, Portuguese and Tamil sources; while the latter, constrained by the scope of the article, does not throw any light on the origins of the community. Besides these, several articles have appeared from time to time authored by a variety of writers ranging from Muslim activists to University lecturers. The only common feature in all these articles is that they try to trace the historical origins of the Ceylon Muslims as far back as possible and thereby they forget to 1 P.

Englannin kieli itsessään ei kuitenkaan ole pysynyt samana, vaan sen kielioppi, sanasto ja ääntämys ovat muovautuneet paikallisten kielikontaktien ja kulttuurin/kulttuurien mukaan. Tänä päivänä useat tutkijat puhuvatkin englanneista monikossa, sen sijaan, että puhuttaisiin yhdestä englannin kielestä. Englannin kieliä, joita käytetään vanhoissa siirtomaissa, erityisesti Aasiassa, Afrikassa, Karibianmerellä ja Uudessa Seelannissa, kutsutaan nimellä Uudet englannit. Uudet englannit ovat kehittyneet kontakteista paikallisten kielien kanssa. Englannin kielen on täytynyt muovautua uuteen ympäristöön ja kulttuuriin omaksumalla sanastoa paikallisilta kieliltä ja keksimällä uusia sanoja oudoille käsitteille, joita englannin kieli ei tunne. Täten jokainen Uusi englanti on sanastollisesti, kieliopillisesti ja ääntämyksellisesti hieman toisistaan poikkeava. Tutkielman tarkoituksena on selvittää Sri Lankan englannin sanastollisia erityispiirteitä. Toisin sanoen, millaisia sanoja käytetään Sri Lankan englannissa, joita ei esiinny muissa englannin varianteissa, ainakaan britti- ja amerikanenglanneissa.
