The semantics of middle voice in Somali∗
(1995). The semantics of middle voice in Somali. African Languages and Cultures: Vol. 8, No. 1, pp. 61-85
Central Somali
The canonically anomalous shape of Syriac verb ekah 'to find' is shown to result from a convergence of diachronic pressures on an intersection of phonological weak spots and morphosyntactic imbalance. The effect of the changes is a trade-off of morphosyntactic defectiveness for moderate phonological anomaly. The developmental hypothesis adopted underscores the importance both of multiple factors in diachronic change and of homeostasis in linguist…
The syntactic status of quantifiers in Somali
The study of quantifiers is an important area of language description. This is in part because their description has proved relevant to an issue of great theoretical interest, the relation between syntax and semantics. One question of interest is how far the unity of their semantic function is reflected in their syntactic behaviour. This raises questions like, is there a syntactic category 'quantifier' or 'quantifier phrase (QP
