Double-finite Serial Verbs in Sanskrit and later Indo-Aryan
Steever (1988. The serial verb formation in the Dravidian languages . Delhi: Motilal Banarsidass) introduced to South Asian linguistics the notion “Serial Verb” – a Dravidian construction in which two morphologically finite verbs agree in person and number features in the same sentence. I show that similar “double-finite” structures are found in Sanskrit/Indo-Aryan, although details differ. One double-finite construction, inherited from Proto-Ind…
Foreigners, Brahmins, Poets, or What? The Sociolinguistics of the Sanskrit Renaissance
A puzzle in Sanskrit’s sociolinguistic history is that texts with authenticated dates first appear in the 2nd century CE, after five centuries of exclusively Prakrit inscriptions. Various hypotheses have tried to account for this fact. Senart (1886) proposed that Sanskrit gained wider currency through Buddhists and Jains. Franke (1902) claimed that Sanskrit died out in India and was artificially reintroduced. Lévi (1902) argued for usurpation of …
Convergence or not? Geography, history, and chance
A question that should be asked in all cases of proposed convergence areas is whether the observed similarities do in fact reflect convergent developments or are due to chance. This paper presents three case studies from South Asia which demonstrate that accidental similarities are more common than is often acknowledged. To rule out chance similarities, convergence accounts must be supported by fine-grained examinations of the geographical and hi…

English in South Asia
Braj B. Kachru's work on South Asian English, part of his larger research framework of ‘World Englishes’, is recognized as a significant contribution to linguistics, especially contact linguistics. In 1979, he also dealt with the ‘Englishization of Hindi’, an issue more fully pursued by Yamuna Kachru. A first discussion of the significance of the two‐way interaction between English and South Asian languages for contact linguistics was presented i…

The Northwest of South Asia and beyond
The Vedic Sanskrit contrast dental : retroflex is widely attributed to Dravidian substratum influence (starting with Pott 1833, 1836). An objection is that retroflexion is explainable by internal developments and that the phonological systems of Sanskrit and reconstructed Dravidian differ considerably (e.g. Bloch 1925; Hock 1975, 1982). Tikkanen (1987, 1988) raises the alternative possibility of a northwestern substrate. I reexamine the evidence …
Yamuna Kachru's contributions to South Asian discourse and convergence studies
The range of Yamuna Kachru's publications is tremendously broad, ranging from language pedagogy, to South Asian - especially Hindi - syntax and syntactic typology, to discourse in South Asian and other languages, to the broader issue of South Asia and world Englishes. This paper focuses on a number of those aspects of her work that have stimulated my own work on several facets of South Asian linguistics, and presents a personal perspective on Pro…

Genre, Discourse, and Syntax in Early Indo-European, with Emphasis on Sanskrit
Language History, Language Change, and Language Relationship
Why does language change? Why can we speak to and understand our parents but have trouble reading Shakespeare? Why is Chaucer's English of the fourteenth century so different from Modern English of the late twentieth century that the two are essentially different languages? Why are Americans and English 'one people divided by a common language'? And how can the language of Chaucer and Modern English - or Modern British and American English - stil…

The Serial Verb Formation in the Dravidian Languages
Dr. Steever explores the linguistic structure and development of the Serial Verb Formation, a family of constructions whose very existence has escaped the notice of earlier Dravidianists
Principles of Historical Linguistics
Historical linguistic theory and practice contains a great number of different 'layers' which have been accepted in the course of time and have acquired a permanency of their own. These range from neogrammarian conceptualizations of sound change and analogy to present-day ideas on rule change and language mixture. To get a full grasp of the principles of historical linguistics it is therefore necessary to understand the nature and justifications …
