Abstract

Selibu is a Mandarin-Khams Tibetan mixed language with about 900 native speakers in northwest Yunnan, People’s Republic of China. As a Form-Semantics mixed language, it derives most of its lexicon and grammatical morphemes from Southwest Mandarin and borrows its morphosyntactic and semantic structure from Alangu Tibetan. This article examines the contact-induced emergence of a five-category complex evidential system in Selibu with a detailed comparison with its source system in the model language, Alangu Tibetan. Our discussion focuses on the hybrid features of Selibu evidentiality in both forms and functions and also on its structural formation, which does not represent a Form-Semantics mixed type in this particular domain.

Selibu的证据

Selibu语是一种汉语和藏族混合语言，在中华人民共和国云南西北部有大约900名母语使用者。它是一种形式语义混合的语言，其词汇和语法语素大部分来源于西南普通话，而其形态句法和语义结构则借鉴了阿兰固藏语。本文考察了在Selibu地区由接触引起的五类复杂证据系统的出现，并详细比较了其在模式语言Alangu藏语中的源系统。我们的讨论集中在Selibu证据性在形式和功能上的混合特征，以及它的结构形成，它在这个特定的领域中并不代表形式-语义混合类型。
