The phylogenetic position of Tshangla
In the past, linguists such as Shafer (1955), Bradley (1997) and Noonan (2008) repeatedly assigned the Tshangla branch of the Trans-Himalayan language family a position close to Tibetan. However, no empirical evidence for this subgrouping has been brought forth, let alone shared innovations. Based on empirical data and the application of neogrammarian principles, this paper provides a reevaluation of the phylogenetic position of Tshangla. First, …
Rekonstruktion der Non-Past-Morphologie im Khambu (Tibetobirmanisch)
Nachiring, a language of the Khambu subgroup (―Kiranti‖, Trans-Himalayan a.k.a. Tibeto-Burman) spoken in eastern Nepal, transparently marks non-past tense (NPT) in the verbal morphology with the suffix -d(a). No such tense marking has been described so far for the other Khambu languages Kulung and Sampang. This article will argue that traces of a cognate morpheme have been preserved in Kulung. These traces are found in stem alternations on the on…
Introduction to Aspects of Brokpa Grammar
The Brokpa language, spoken in the two villages Merak and Sakteng in eastern Bhutan and adjacent parts of Arunachal Pradesh, is a hitherto undescribed Tibetic language (Trans-Himalayan). This special issue of Himalayan Linguistics presents the first account on several aspects of the phonology and grammar of the language. This introduction gives some general information about the Brokpa language, its phylogeny and linguistic profile and about the …
Brokpa texts, glossary and verb stems
The appendices to Himalayan Linguistics 19.1: Aspects of Brokpa Grammar consist of three parts, namely the text collection compiled by the Brokpa Documentation and Description Project (BDDP) at the Department of Linguistics of Bern University (Appendix A), a commented Brokpa glossary with etymologies (Appendix B) as well as the list of verb stems attested so far, indicating stem alternations (Appendix C)
Diachronic aspects of Bjokapakha epistemic verbal morphology
Bjokapakha belongs to the Tshangla cluster of the Trans-Himalayan (Tibeto-Burman) language family and is spoken in Central Bhutan. Like many languages of the Himalayan region, Bjokapakha exhibits a rich system of epistemic functions, centering around the notion of personal or subjective knowledge (a.k.a. egophoricity, conjunct-disjunct or mirativity). Morphosyntactically, the epistemic categories of Bjokapakha are expressed by constructions invol…
