Previously, canonical descriptions held that English-based creoles differ from standard and metropolitan colloquial Englishes by forming questions with rising intonation alone (e.g., Guyanese: Jaan de hoom “John is at home”), without subject-auxiliary inversion (Is John at home?). In practice, however, we find considerable, and substantially similar, constraint-based variation across the varieties studied, with YES/NO questions and auxiliary do favoring non-inversion. These and other cross-varietal similarities are significant for understanding this variable but suggest that question formation may not be fruitful for investigating the question of prior creolization in AAVE.","PeriodicalId":312626,"journal":{"name":"Variation, Versatility and Change in Sociolinguistics and Creole Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130065597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
