Lexical semantic constraints on noun roots and noun borrowability
While nouns are thought to be more easily borrowed than verbs, this investigation demonstrates that there may be limitations on noun borrowing into certain languages. The case of Zuni is examined, in which conditions of contact similar to that of neighboring languages nevertheless result in a different treatment of the noun lexicon. The possibility of borrowing natural kind nouns into Zuni exists alongside a tendency against borrowing nouns of th…
Zuni Accusative Intransitives
Zuni presents the typologically interesting case of possessing two intransitive constructions with an accusative case‐marked (structural) object. While the presence of accusative case more generally has been attributed to the assignment of an agent thematic role, the correlation between semantic interpretation and accusative vs. nominative case in Zuni intransitives indicates instead that properties of subevent structure are at work. The case is …
