Abstract

This paper investigates reduplication in Kodi, an under-documented and understudied language spoken in Sumba Island, Nusa Tenggara Timur Province, eastern Indonesia. Reduplication in Kodi shows various patterns that fall under two major types: full reduplication and partial reduplication. Full reduplication mostly involves reduplication of the entire disyllabic base. In partial reduplication, the salient patterns that are copied are initial parts (a syllable and a foot), an internal part (a syllable), or final parts (foot) of the base. Furthermore, the reduplication process serves to express salient semantic properties, such as verbal number or pluractionality, indirect noun pluralization, attenuation or numeral distributivity. It is argued that (i) stress determines the reduplication process in Kodi in that the syllable or foot which is reduplicated is predictable from the stress patterns, (ii) semantic context triggers reduplication processes, and (iii) the framework of the theory of (Generalized) Paradigm Function Morphology ((G)PFM) ( Stump 2001 , 2016 ; Stewart & Stump 2007 ; Spencer & Stump 2013 ; Spencer 2013 ; Nikolaeva & Spencer 2019 ) can satisfactorily capture how stress determines the reduplication of the base and how semantic context triggers the reduplication process. This study provides additional evidence in support of the (G)PFM theory, which can arguably be extended to handle complex reduplicative patterns beyond Kodi.
Kodi中的重复:一种范式函数解释
本文调查了印尼东部努沙登加拉帖木儿省松巴岛所说的科迪语中的重叠现象。科迪语是一种文献记载不足、研究不足的语言。Kodi中的重叠表现出不同的模式,分为两种主要类型:完全重叠和部分重叠。全重叠主要涉及整个双音节词基的重叠。在部分重叠中,复制的显著模式是基的声母(音节和脚)、内部(音节)或词尾(脚)。此外,重叠过程用于表达显著的语义特性,如动词数量或复数性、间接名词复数化、衰减或数字分布性。有人认为:(i)重音决定了Kodi中的重叠过程,因为重叠的音节或脚是可以从重音模式中预测的;(ii)语义上下文触发了重叠过程,以及(iii)(广义)范式函数形态学((G)PFM)理论的框架(Stump 20012016;Stewart和Stump 2007;Spencer和Stump 2013;Spencers 2013;Nikolaeva和Spencer 2019)可以令人满意地捕捉到压力如何决定基部的重叠以及语义上下文如何触发重叠过程。这项研究为支持(G)PFM理论提供了额外的证据,该理论可以扩展到处理Kodi之外的复杂重叠模式。
