  • Verbes statifs et adjectifs en tayo

    Chris CorneARTICLELangages2000

    Chris Corne : Stative verbs and adjectives in Tayo The lexicon of tayo is French-based whereas its syntax is principally influenced by Kanak languages. In Tayo, there is a small number of pre-posed adjectives, coming distinctly from French since the Kanak languages do not allow such a word-order. Post-posed adjectives are rare. The alternative is a relative clause containing a stative verb, a Kanak pattern. The paper analyzes stative verbs found …

  • Nana K Nana, Nana K Napa

    Chris CorneARTICLEJournal of Pidgin and Creole…1995

    A recent study of Tayo shows an obligatory subordinator sa in all relative clauses. The Isle de France dialects, like most other varieties of Creole French, have an obligatory subordinator ki for subject relatives, while ki is optional elsewhere. Reunion Creole has a subordinator ke which is almost always optional, and thus stands out as different from all others in this respect. To explain this oddity, the paper contains the following topical se…

  • Relativization and Thematization in Tayo and the Implications for Creole Genesis

    Chris CorneARTICLEJournal of Pidgin and Creole…1994

    Relative clauses in Tayo, the French-lexicon Creole of St-Louis (New Caledonia) which emerged in the late 19th century, reflect in their construction and their distribution typically Melanesian patterns, including a sub-ordinator derived from a personal pronoun, sa. Thematization similarly reflects Melanesian strategies, but may also be handled by clefting using a subordinator ki (

  • Mauritian Creole Reflexives

    Chris CorneARTICLEJournal of Pidgin and Creole…1988

    In the process of pidginization and creolization that occurred in the 18th century, Mauritian Creole (Mau) did not retain the atonic clitics of French. In consequence, morphologically marked reflexives were lost, or paraphrased in various ways using especially the lexical item lekor 'body'. Where French uses a tonic pronoun (in the imperative), early Mau retained the structure. Continuing French semantactic influence reintroduced pronouns (derive…

  • À propos des faux groupes consonantiques en tahitien

    Chris CorneARTICLEJournal de la Société des…1984

    Dans l'un de ses derniers articles, A. Haudricourt a émis l'hypothèse qu'une récente influence de la langue française aurait affecté le tahitien et aurait donné lieu à des groupes de consonnes (th, pr, ...). Dans le présent article, l'auteur démontre que cette hypothèse est erronée ; la métathèse (en cours ou accomplie) est un phénomène contextuel et prévisible donnant lieu à des séquences phonétiques qui sont perçues par une oreille francophone …
