Determiners and the Development of Grammatical Nominalization in Nivaĉle
Nivaĉle, a Mataco‐Mataguayan language of the South American Chaco, exhibits right branching syntax often involving determiners. The determiners express visibility, proximity, existence, have temporal implications, and mark abstract referents and nominalized clauses. This paper proposes that headless relative clauses arose by using determiners in grammatical nominalization via an amalgam source construction, while a certain complement clause struc…
Associated motion, direction and (exchoative) aspect in Ethiopian Komo
Komo (Koman) of Ethiopia has an obligatory paradigm of deictic directional ( dd ) verb morphology that, among its functions, indicates direction of motion relative to a deictic reference point, associated motion and grammatical aspect when collocated with verb roots of different semantic classes. The semantic components of a motion event underlie the Komo dd system and the grammatical aspect of a predicate can be directly mapped to the bounded/un…
Acoustic correlates of anticipatory and progressive [ATR] harmony processes in Ethiopian Komo
Aspects of Ethiopian Komo (morpho)phonology
This paper presents the first comprehensive analysis of the phonological system of Komo (Koman of Western Ethiopia), including the tone system and morphophonological processes in the verb involving deictic directional morphology. The consonant inventory contains plain, ejective, implosive stops and an ejective affricate in three places of articulation. Komo has a seven-vowel inventory with Advanced Tongue Root (ATR) contrast in the high vowels an…
