"Outline Grammar of the Shaíyâng Miri Language" focuses on the linguistic structure of the Miri language, spoken by the Miri people near Sadiya in Assam, India. The work offers a comprehensive overview of the grammar, including phonetics, morphology, and syntax, while also addressing unique linguistic features of the Shaíyâng dialect. The author aims to preserve the language and provide a resource for linguists and language learners. This outline serves not only as a grammatical guide but also as a cultural document, reflecting the rich heritage and identity of the Miri community.

Jack Francis Needham OBE (1842–1924) was a British officer in the Bengal Police, serving as Political Officer in Sadiya, Assam, from 1882. He explored the Eastern Himalayan region, notably the Adi area, fostering British relations with local Tani tribes. Needham is recognized for his pioneering work on Sino-Tibetan and Tai-Kadai languages, authoring grammars for Mising, Singpho, and Tai Khamti, along with an ethnographic travelogue detailing his journey to South-Eastern Tibet. His contributions significantly enhanced the understanding of the region's languages and cultures.
