Zusammenfassung:Professor Dahl died November 11, 1995, at the age of 92. This paper was presented by him just over a year before, at the 7th International Conference on Austronesian Linguistics at Leiden on August 22, 1994. It examines whether the generalization holds that normal Malagasy sentences consist of a subject followed by a predicate, using Otto Dempwolff's definitions of those terms for Austronesian languages. The preceding issue of "Oceanic Linguistics", June 1996, includes Dahl's obituary.
