Motion events in Takituduh Bunun and Holistic Spatial Semantics
This paper examines how Takituduh Bunun (Austronesian: Taiwan) encodes translocative motion, using the framework of Holistic Spatial Semantics. Based on elicited field data, we identify key lexical and grammatical resources, including motion verbs, a productive motion prefix ( u -), and the locative voice. These interact flexibly to express basic semantic categories such as Path, Direction, Manner, and Region. We show that Takituduh Bunun challen…
Head movement and motion events in Takituduh Bunun
The aim of this paper is to explore the morphosyntactic and semantic properties of the Takituduh Bunun (Austronesian: Central Taiwan) motion prefix u-, glossed as MOT. One central function of this prefix is to encode translocative motion. It can attach to a general locative marker, location nouns, nouns that denote places, and place names to derive a verbal constituent that encodes translocative motion. We propose that these morphologically compl…
Manner Affixes and Event Decomposition
This paper investigates how verbal affixes that encode manner information (manner affixes) interact with verbs of different lexical aspect classes and transitivity values in West Greenlandic (Inuit-Yupik-Unangan: Greenland). Manner affixes remain an understudied and poorly understood grammatical category. The data presented and discussed here is primarily based on original fieldwork conducted in Copenhagen (Denmark) and Nuuk (Greenland). The find…
The evolution of lexical semantics dynamics, directionality, and drift
Introduction The directionality of semantic change is problematic in traditional comparative models of language reconstruction. Compared to, e.g., phonological and morphological change, the directions of meaning change over time are potentially endless and difficult to reconstruct. The current paper attempts to reconstruct the mechanisms of lexical meaning change by a quantitative model. We use a data set of 104 core concepts in 160 Eurasian lang…
