El cuento ‘‘El fin del mundo’’ en el mè’pàà (tlapaneco) de la Ciénega del Sauce, Guerrero
Aquí se presenta y analiza el cuento “El fin del mundo” narrado en el mè’pàà de la Ciénega del Sauce, Guerrero, en el municipio de Ayutla de los Libres. Este cuento se ha venido transmitiendo de generación en generación, y se trata sobre mantener el respeto a nuestros hermanos hablantes de otras lenguas, así como respetar a los perros ya que ellos nos dieron vida. El texto también presenta los datos de una variante del mè’pàà que es poco document…

Foot-based allomorphy in Tlapanec (Mè’phàà)
Tlapanec (Mè’phàà), an Otomanguean language spoken in Mexico, has several allomorphic alternations which are sensitive to the number of syllables of the stem (monosyllabic vs. disyllabic). We argue that these alternations are motivated by the foot structure which consists of two syllables, and that such alternations can be captured by subcategorization frames. An alternative, P » M analysis is also provided, where the allomorphic alternations are…
Morphosyntactically Conditioned Tone Change in Central Zapotec
In some Central Zapotec varieties, such as San Pablo Güilá Zapotec and Teotitlán del Valle Zapotec, a verb in the completive aspect undergoes a tone change in certain syntactic contexts. We argue that this phenomenon can be accounted for by considering that there are two completive prefixes, the segmental exponents of which are the same: one that does not provoke any tone change (completive) and the other that does (completive 2). We also propose…
Clusters vs units in Otomanguean
Desde el trabajo pionero de Trubetzkoy (1939), se han presentado varias propuestas para distinguir las secuencias y las unidades consonánticas en las lenguas individuales. En este artículo, exploraré los casos del tlapaneco (mè’phàà) de Malinaltepec y el zapoteco (dixsa:) de Teotitlán del Valle, dos lenguas otomangues. Examinaré los criterios generales y particulares de cada lengua para distinguir secuencias y unidades en estas lenguas. Mostraré …
Teotitlán Zapotec
Some languages tend to derive intransitive verbs from transitive verbs, while others tend to derive transitive verbs from intransitive verbs. In this paper, we will argue that Teotitlán Zapotec, an Otomanguean language spoken in the state of Oaxaca, Mexico, represents an extreme case of a transitivizing language: the transitive counterpart is almost always morphologically more complex, not only in the anticausative/causative alternations, but als…

Subject and agentivity in Teotitlán Zapotec
In Teotitlán Zapotec, some, but not all, verbs undergo stem alternation in the 1st person forms, in addition to the attachment of the pronominal enclitics that encode the subject argument. We argue that stem alternation and pronominal cliticization are independent from one another and that each encodes different grammatical features, agent and subject, respectively. The phenomenon discussed in this paper is peculiar in two respects. First, stem a…
El texto Don Crescencio
El zapoteco de Teotitlán del Valle ha recibido mucha atención, probablemente, debido a la hipótesis de que es el heredero directo del zapoteco colonial. No obstante, su sistema tonal en gran medida se ha quedado inexplorado por parte de los lingüistas y estudiosos del zapoteco. El objetivo de este artículo es doble. Primero, presentar un texto oral sobre Dā Krésěːnsy ‘Don Crescencio’. Segundo, a partir de los datos de este texto oral, caracteriza…
A phonological account of Tlapanec (Mè’phàà) tonal alternation
Tlapanec (Mè’phàà) is known for its enigmatic tonal alternation in verb forms according to person and aspect-mode categories, in addition to suppletion and other segmental alternations. In this paper, we argue that the tonal alternations observed in Tlapanec regular agentive verbs can be straightforwardly accounted for by phonology, without resorting to any extreme abstractness: the lexical tones of the prefixes and the verb stems, with underspec…
Tone and registrogenesis in Quiaviní Zapotec
Tone and phonation type are known to show complex interactions. I argue that breathy vowels in one Central Zapotec variety, San Lucas Quiaviní Zapotec (Otomanguean, Mexico), has resulted from an original tonal contrast between the low and rising tones (registrogenesis), based both on language-internal and comparative evidence with other closely-related Central Zapotec varieties. The case of Central Zapotec is unusual in that the direction of the …
Cherokee Noun Incorporation Revisited
One of the most significant differences between Northern Iroquoian and Cherokee is the employment of noun incorporation. Previous studies reconstruct productive noun incorporation in Proto-Iroquoian, arguing that Cherokee once had this process but has lost it. The aim of this paper is to offer a detailed analysis of the morphology of Cherokee, thereby showing that solid evidence for reconstructing productive noun incorporation for an earlier stag…
High Tone in Oklahoma Cherokee
High Tone (excluding atonic superhigh accent) in Oklahoma Cherokee can be divided into three types: (i ) Lexical High Tone, (ii ) High Tone imposed on the final vowel of the verb stem, and (iii ) High Tone caused by prepronominal prefixes. This claim is supported by their different behaviors with regard to the direction of tone spreading, tone‐bearing unit, atonic forms, and blocking of the Laryngeal Alternation rule. I also claim that among thes…
