Some verbs always show indexing, while others exhibit differential argument indexing (DAI). In DAI, the use of a particular prefix paradigm or zero marking depends on different (combinations of) factors. We investigate the effects of argument role (S, P), independent argument realisation, the animacy and topicality of the indexed argument, and lexical stipulation. We perform a quantitative analysis of these factors for the first time in Kamang discourse, drawing on an annotated corpus of spoken Kamang. A complex picture emerges in which Kamang argument indexing is best viewed not as a single system, but as multiple subsystems for which different factors are relevant in a given context, and which do not operate on all verbs or all indexing strategies equally.","PeriodicalId":46377,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Language","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82290907","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results of two experiments show that the sentence-initial object is not\u0000 associated with the verb whatsoever, neither lexically nor structurally, shedding light on the typological characteristics of\u0000 Chinese as a topic-prominent language.

Previous studies of the Qiang language have argued that person markings reflect the person and number of the agent.

It can also be used to mark non-agent, such as the possessor, recipient, beneficiary, or patient. Second, the person markings in imperatives differ from those in non-imperatives.

For already, northern sedentary varieties have\u0000 borrowed from French (replacing an older autochthonous expression), whereas southern Bedouin varieties have a “gap” in their\u0000 system.

This type of\u0000 complex sentences simultaneously involves features of serial verb construction and complementation in Saisiyat, which give rise to\u0000 indeterminacy in constructional categorization. In order to solve this problem, the current study probes into the categorization\u0000 between serial verb construction and complementation regarding Aarts’ (2007)\u0000 constructional gradience and semantic relations (Van Valin & LaPolla 1997). The\u0000 investigation demonstrates a discrete boundary between the two constructions with convergence on each other, while subtypes of\u0000 multi-predicate sentences are aligned on the convergence based on intra- and inter-categorical relations. Two structural\u0000 dependencies are proposed to carry out a taxonomy of Saisiyat complex sentences. A theoretical implication derives from this study\u0000 that Saisiyat multi-predicate sentences are manifestations of formalized morphosyntactic configurations with a pairing of\u0000 particularized semantic relations instead of coinage based on analogic conventionalization (Fillmore 1997; Goldberg 2019).","PeriodicalId":46377,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Language","volume":"60 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84519081","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous studies have described non-verbal index placement in Gutob as exceptional, establishing verbal indexes as the default. This paper presents the first case study on the placement of Gutob indexes based on corpus data. Our analysis shows that although index placement in Gutob is in fact conditioned by discourse effects, non-verbal clitics cannot be considered particularly exceptional. They are employed to allocate attention to constituents and express engagement with a particular piece of information. In other languages where index placement is similarly flexible, it has been ascribed to the host being in focus. However, we argue although the effects of index placement in Gutob might pertain to what is usually subsumed under this category, other effects like newness, quantification, requested information or negation are not necessarily associated with index placement in Gutob.","PeriodicalId":46377,"journal":{"name":"Studies in Language","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84294830","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A quantity Path component can then assign a\u0000 semantic value to a functional projection called AspQP, which returns a telic interpretation. Data from Mandarin,\u0000 Ghanaian Student Pidgin, and Southern Tati show AspQP can be assigned a value either with or without overt head\u0000 movement.
