Abstract

Abstract:Tagalog is a strongly head-initial language: arguments without special discourse status typically follow their lexical heads. However, genitive-marked pronominal arguments display a word order alternation where instead of following their lexical head, they may precede it. This alternation, which I refer to here as Genitive Inversion, has received comparatively little attention in the research on Tagalog, even though it is relatively commonplace. This paper offers a detailed description of the behavior of Genitive Inversion, showing what kinds of arguments it can apply to and what environments it can apply in. I show that this process raises questions about the basic properties of Tagalog and discuss directions for potential analyses and avenues for further research into this topic.
塔加路族属格倒置观察
摘要:他加禄语是一种强烈的词头先行语言:没有特殊话语地位的参数通常跟随其词头。然而,带有属格标记的代词论点却表现出一种词序交替现象,即论点不是在词头之后,而是在词头之前。我在这里将这种交替称为属格倒置,尽管它在他加禄语研究中比较常见,但却很少受到关注。本文详细描述了属格反转的行为,展示了它可以适用于哪些类型的论据,以及它可以适用于哪些环境。我说明了这一过程提出了有关他加禄语基本属性的问题,并讨论了可能的分析方向和进一步研究这一主题的途径。

期刊介绍: Oceanic Linguistics is the only journal devoted exclusively to the study of the indigenous languages of the Oceanic area and parts of Southeast Asia. The thousand-odd languages within the scope of the journal are the aboriginal languages of Australia, the Papuan languages of New Guinea, and the languages of the Austronesian (or Malayo-Polynesian) family. Articles in Oceanic Linguistics cover issues of linguistic theory that pertain to languages of the area, report research on historical relations, or furnish new information about inadequately described languages.
