Baniwa classifiers as predictors of upcoming nouns
Theories of predictive processing postulate that the brain continuously generates predictions about future linguistic input. Many different linguistic elements have been found to function as predictive cues. One such element is classifiers, i.e., morphemes that classify noun referents according to some semantic property. However, very few studies have so far investigated the predictive function of classifiers, and all existing studies focus on ma…
The evolution of lexical semantics dynamics, directionality, and drift
Introduction The directionality of semantic change is problematic in traditional comparative models of language reconstruction. Compared to, e.g., phonological and morphological change, the directions of meaning change over time are potentially endless and difficult to reconstruct. The current paper attempts to reconstruct the mechanisms of lexical meaning change by a quantitative model. We use a data set of 104 core concepts in 160 Eurasian lang…
Vocal iconicity in nominal classification
While recent years have seen a substantial increase of studies investigating vocal iconicity in the lexicon of spoken languages, its presence in grammatical structures is poorly understood. This study investigates the presence of vocal iconicity in nominal classification systems by collecting nominal classification devices from the two main system types: 210 non-agreeing languages (126 families) and 151 agreeing languages (123 families). To detec…
Expansion by migration and diffusion by contact is a source to the global diversity of linguistic nominal categorization systems
Languages of diverse structures and different families tend to share common patterns if they are spoken in geographic proximity. This convergence is often explained by horizontal diffusibility, which is typically ascribed to language contact. In such a scenario, speakers of two or more languages interact and influence each other’s languages, and in this interaction, more grammaticalized features tend to be more resistant to diffusion compared to …
Deixis in narrative
The current paper describes the deictic system of Kamaiurá, a language of the Tupí-Guaraní family. The Kamaiurá system of deictic demonstratives and adverbials has a high degree of complexity, including at least 17 different forms, of which several have different functions. The system codes four levels of Participant deixis, with proximal, medial, distal and far distal deixis. Forms can also code anaphora and highly specialized locations of the r…
