  • Voice Onset Time in a language without voicing contrast

    Open AccessInge Genee, Fangfang LiARTICLEJournal of the International…2024Cited by: 1References: 40

    This paper presents an acoustic analysis of Voice Onset Time (VOT) in oral stop consonants in Blackfoot, an Algonquian language without contrastive voicing. We focus on VOT as one of the key temporal acoustic correlates of voicing and investigate VOT variation in relation to (i) place of articulation (labial vs. alveolar vs. velar); (ii) length (long vs. short), quality (/a/ vs. /o/), and accent pattern (accented vs. unaccented) of the following …

  • “It’s written niisto but it sounds like knee stew .”

    Open AccessInge GeneeARTICLEWritten Language & Literacy2020

    This paper argues for pragmatism rather than linguistic purity in orthography design for endangered Indigenous languages such as Blackfoot, emphasizing the need to see orthography standardization as a dynamic process rather than a static result. It explores the ongoing lack of community agreement about the best way to write the Blackfoot language and lack of widespread proficiency in the use of its standard orthography, and then describes ways in…

  • A Comparative analysis of rhythmic patterns in settler-heritage English and Blackfoot English in Southern Alberta

    Open AccessNicole Rosen, Inge Genee et al.ARTICLEThe Canadian Journal of…2019

    In this paper we explore differences in prosodic rhythm between two English speech communities in rural Southern Alberta, Canada: speakers of Blackfoot First Nation descent and those of settler descent. Using the Variability Index (VI), we show that there are statistically significant differences between English speakers of settler descent and those of Blackfoot descent, where those of Blackfoot descent have a higher VI, that is, they are further…

  • Blackfoot causative formation between lexicon and grammar

    Open AccessInge GeneeARTICLELinguistics2016References: 1

    This article considers the treatment of causatives in Functional Discourse Grammar (FDG) in relation to questions regarding the division of labor between the Grammar and the Lexicon in Functional Discourse Grammar (FDG). The focus is on causative constructions in which the causativizer affixes to the verb in so-called polysynthetic languages. In this respect the article also contributes to the treatment of polysynthesis in FDG. The central questi…

  • The lexicon in Functional Discourse Grammar

    Open AccessInge Genee, Evelien Keizer et al.ARTICLELinguistics2016Cited by: 1

    This paper discusses the treatment of the lexicon in Functional Discourse Grammar (FDG) and serves to provide a general introduction to the theoretical framework and its formalizations, in particular for readers who may not be intimately familiar with it. After outlining the general architecture of the model, we discuss the position, content and function of the FDG lexicon in more detail. The FDG lexicon is often called the Fund, as it contains m…

  • What's in a morpheme? Obviation morphology in Blackfoot

    Open AccessInge GeneeARTICLELinguistics2009Cited by: 1References: 6

    Algonquian languages mark discourse topicality on nouns and verbs by means of obviation morphology: the proximate marks topical participants, while the obviative marks nontopical participants. In Blackfoot, portmanteau obviation morphemes express a combination of pragmatic and semantic distinctions, including illocution, referentiality, topicality, animacy, person and number. An analysis of the proximate as the expression of grammaticalized topic…

  • English do

    Open AccessJohan Van Der Auwera, Johan Van Der Van Der Auwera et al.ARTICLEEnglish Language and Linguistics2002

    This article surveys the debate on the origin of periphrastic do , with particular attention to the hypothesis that Celtic languages might have exerted some influence. With respect to the facts, it is argued that there are various types of Celtic hypotheses and that one type is sensible, though unlikely to be proven and even less likely to be proven to be the only relevant factor. With respect to the debate itself, it is shown that a Celtic origi…
