Investigating Valency Decreasing Verb Operational Devices
The purpose was to examine and analyze the mechanisms used in the Oromo language to decrease the valency (or argument structure) of verbs. Specifically, it aimed to understand how valency-decreasing operational devices are employed, their semantic motivations, and their implications for linguistic theory. To assess the valency-decreasing devices, the first corpus analysis was used to collect a representative corpus of Oromo texts containing valen…
Sentential complements and predicates in Northern Somali
In the introductory part of this contribution, some of the general parameters that have been used in the literature for describing systems of sentential complementation are briefly surveyed. The major types of Northern Somali sentential complements are described in the following sections. Firstly, clauses introduced by the complementizer in , together with its possible etymology. These are followed by infinitival complements and quotative complem…
Oromo
This chapter is devoted to Oromo, the Cushitic language with the highest number of speakers, which is also used as a second language in several areas of Ethiopia. After an introductory section on its history, sociolinguistics, dialectology and a brief survey of previous research, several aspects of its phonetics and phonology are discussed, also taking into account dialect variation. After a discussion of the official orthography of Oromo, and se…

The three major dialect groups within…
