The Flea. Melody Types and Perturbations in a Mixtec Song
Americanae nace como un proyecto conjunto que surge dentro de la Red Europea de Información y Documentación sobre América Latina (REDIAL), y que ha afrontado la Biblioteca de la Agencia Española de Cooperación Internacional para el Desarrollo (AECID). Esta nueva biblioteca virtual hace más accesibles los libros digitales de tema americanista a los investigadores y usuarios interesados de cualquier parte del mundo.
Emics and Etics for Organizational Studies: A Lesson in Contrast from Linguistics
Pike spent his career addressing a practical problem in linguistics, one that has a close analogy in international organizational studies. It is the problem of how someone can enter an unfamiliar culture and learn to communicate and live there. The optimal tools to carry along to an unfamiliar locale would be an explicit theory developed specifically for that locale fleshed out with locally relevant tacit experience. However, unless the local peo…
The Mystery of Culture Contacts, Historical Reconstruction, and Text Analysis: An Emic Approach
Renowned linguist Kenneth L. Pike and his coauthors offer three previously unpublished essays that apply theoretical linguistic research to the areas of historical linguistics, cross-cultural communications, and text analysis. Toward the Historical Reconstruction of Matrix Patterns in Morphology establishes a comprehensive theory of morphological structure based on a number of languages. Understanding Misunderstanding as Cross-Cultural Emic Clash…

Sociolinguistic Evaluation of Alternative Mathematical Models: English Pronouns
Some characteristics of pronoun sequences are structured so as to necessitate the postulation of components of discourse structures—larger than the sentence—which can now be treated by the mathematical theory of groups (and in a manner accessible to the non-mathematician). Since dozens of variant formalisms can represent the six pronominal axes studied, criteria outside formalism are needed to evaluate them. In seeking for naturalness, sociolingu…

Phonemics: A Technique for Reducing Languages to Writing
This article presents a technique for reducing languages to writing, focusing on phonemics. It outlines procedures for identifying phonemes, the minimal units of distinctive sound in a language, and discusses their role in creating a writing system. The authors, Trager and Pike, detail methods for analyzing phonetic data, distinguishing between phonemes and allophones (variant pronunciations), and establishing the phonemic inventory of a language…

Immediate Constituents of Mazateco Syllables
Taxemes and Immediate Constituents
1.1. Many students of Leonard Blodmfield's Languaget have been inspired, by the extraordinary insight into grammatical phenomena there shown, to attempt descriptive analysis from that basis. Frequently, however, their hopes of success are dulled somewhat by the singular fact that the material proves more elusive in application than it did in appreciation. In an attempt a couple of years ago to use Bloomfield's principles to analyze the complicate…

Analysis of a Mixteco Text
Coexistent Phonemic Systems
The speech of monolingual natives of some languages is comprised of more than one phonemic system; the simultaneously existing systems operate partly in harmony and partly in conflict. No rigidly descriptive statement of the facts about such a language accounts for all the pertinent structural data without leading to apparent contradictions. These are caused by the conflict of statements about one phonemic system with statements about another sys…

Conflated Field Structures in Potawatomi and in Arabic
A Syntactic Paradigm
In a previous article I showed how matrix theory could be used to present some features of the relations between well-defined constructions. I claimed there that a traditional paradigm illustrates one kind of matrix on a word level but that matrix theory provides the basis for paradigms on syntactic levels as well. Here I wish to give one small syntactic paradigm to illustrate this point. For structural data, I chose an article by James C. Dean. …
Dimensions of Grammatical Constructions
This paper begins with a question. It gives empirical data in order to show that the question appears answerable in principle. It discusses some problems that require an elaboration of the preliminary solution. Finally, it summarizes a few of the implications of the study

This paper presents evidence to show that in certain dialects of American Speech—in ‘General American‘—phonetic [I i ], [U u ], [e I ], [o U ] are not structurally parallel to [a I ], [a U ], [ɔ I ] (or [o I ]), but that the first group act as phonetically complex single units (single phonemes), whereas the second group function as sequences of two units (two phonemes)

Recently, in a workshop of members of the Summer Institute of Linguistics in Peru, working with about twenty-one languages from nine language families of the area, I had an opportunity to observe the fruitfulness of one set of exploratory concepts postulated in Part II of my Language in relation to a unified theory of the structure of human behavior. The relevant section of Part II states: ‘Our empirical data, however, suggest that we must assume…
