Historical Glottometry is a method, recently proposed by Kalyan and François (François 2014; Kalyan & François 2018), for analyzing and
representing the relationships among sister languages in a language family. We present a glottometric analysis of the Sogeram
language family of Papua New Guinea and, in the process, provide an evaluation of the method. We focus on three topics that we
regard as problematic: how to handle the higher incidence of cross-cutting isoglosses in the Sogeram data; how best to handle
lexical innovations; and what to do when the data do not allow the analyst to be sure whether a given language underwent a given
innovation or not. For each topic we compare different ways of coding and calculating the data and suggest the best way forward.
We conclude by proposing changes to the way glottometric data are coded and calculated and the way glottometric results are
visualized. We also discuss how to incorporate Historical Glottometry into an effective historical-linguistic research
workflow.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Historical Linguistics aims to publish, after peer-review, papers that make a significant contribution to the theory and/or methodology of historical linguistics. Papers dealing with any language or language family are welcome. Papers should have a diachronic orientation and should offer new perspectives, refine existing methodologies, or challenge received wisdom, on the basis of careful analysis of extant historical data. We are especially keen to publish work which links historical linguistics to corpus-based research, linguistic typology, language variation, language contact, or the study of language and cognition, all of which constitute a major source of methodological renewal for the discipline and shed light on aspects of language change. Contributions in areas such as diachronic corpus linguistics or diachronic typology are therefore particularly welcome.
