I fully agree with Tore's statements and wish just to add to Tore's last
paragr. that there are a few cases of double derivation: e.g. Ital. 're' <
Nomin. and Old Ital. 'rege' < Accus., Fr. 'on' < Lat. 'homo', Nomin. and
'homme' < Lat. 'homine(m)', Acc.

----------------------------Original message----------------------------
A few days ago, I posted a query on which case-form of a Latin noun or
adjective was typically borrowed into other languages.  I posted my query
because it was suggested on another list that borrowing of the accusative
was the norm -- as indeed it was in Basque.  I doubted the generalization,
but I lacked the evidence to reply.

I received nine helpful responses, some of which were posted to the list.
The reports can be summed up as follows.

In Basque, as I reported, in cases in which we can tell, it is almost
always the accusative which is borrowed, though in a few cases it is the
nominative, and in one case it is the vocative.  I forgot to mention that
there are also one or two cases of the borrowing of the genitive -- and
indeed the Latin genitive ending <-is> is widely thought to be the origin
of the medieval Basque patronymic suffix <-iz> (phonetic [-is]).

In Welsh, it is often impossible to tell, but there are a few clear cases
in which the nominative was borrowed, and a few more in which some oblique
case was borrowed (can't always tell which oblique case that was).  In the
case of day-names, there is reason to suspect that a genitive was borrowed.

In Old Irish, there are a few clear cases of borrowed nominatives.

In Albanian, it is often hard to tell, but there exist cases in which the
form borrowed was certainly oblique, and most likely the accusative.

In Gothic, and in Germanic generally, early borrowings are often
unmistakably taken from the Latin nominative, though later borrowings are
often taken from the accusative -- though it is not clear that the Latin
nominative was still in spoken use at the time these borrowings, at least
in the relevant area.

So, it appears that the evidence does not support a contention that
borrowing of the Latin accusative was the norm everywhere and always.
Fine.

Several of the respondents provided some specific examples from their
specialist languages; for these I am grateful, but I won't reproduce them
here.

Some respondents also commented on the survival of Latin case-forms into
the Romance vernaculars, and on purely literary borrowings; this material
too I will not reproduce here.

My thanks to Miguel Carrasquer Vidal, Richard Coates, John Hines, Martin
Huld, Tore Janson, Elizabeth Pyatt, Paolo Ramat, Max Wheeler, and Roger
Wright.

Modern Hebrew


ORA (RODRIGUE) SCHWARZWALD
Bar Ilan University

Modern Hebrew revival in Israel during the last century is a unique
phenomenon: a written language used by Jews over 1700 years for either
liturgy or writing has become a spoken language used for all purposes.
Although the revivers of Hebrew tried to base the spoken language on the
grammar of Hebrew classical periods, the phonetic and grammatical
structure of Modern Hebrew shows divergence from it due to various
factors.
        New words in Modern Hebrew are derived primarily in three ways: 1.
combination of a consonantal root with pattern, e.g. g-d-l+-i-e- > gidel
'raised,' g-d-l+mi--a- > migdal 'tower'; 2. stem + affix, e.g. bank+ay >
bankay 'banker,' migdal+i > migdali 'tower-like'; 3. blends, e.g. migdal
+ 'or 'light' > migdalor 'lighthouse.' Loan words are added from various
sources with some phonetic adaptation, e.g. bank, telefon, and can
follow Hebrew derivational rules, e.g. telefoni 'of the phone (adj),'
t-l-f-n+-i-e- > tilfen 'telephoned (v).'
        All verbs are derived by root and (seven) patterns' combination, unlike
nouns. There are three tenses and one mood in the verb. Nouns are either
masculine or feminine. Person inflection in the verbs is obligatory, and
so is preposition inflection. Nouns and adjectives are inflected for
number and gender, but possessive inflection is limited in nouns, e.g.
yadi ~ hayad  eli 'my hand.'
        Modern Hebrew is an SVO language with an alternating VSO word order
that was dominant in classical Hebrew. Topicalization and other word
order shifts are possible. Adjectives follow head nouns, but numeral
quantifiers precede them. Nominal sentences with no copula are very
common in Hebrew, e.g. hi yafa 'she (is) beautiful.' Copulative verbs
are obligatory in the past or the future tense.
        The lexicon of Modern Hebrew is composed of original Hebrew words from
all its language periods together with loan words. Semantic shifts occur
in many original words, however, a lot of the changes are due to loan
translations or loan shifts.

Lexicon of Sark Norman French

Anthony J. Liddicoat, Griffith University

Sark Norman French (SNF) is a Norman French variety spoken on the island
of Sark, the smallest of the Channel Islands. The variety is spoken by
fewer than 50 people and is in a state of obsolescence. SNF was
established on Sark in the sixteenth century by a group of mainly Jersey
Norman French speakers, but then evolved in relative isolation until
late nineteenth century.

        SNF is a very conservative Norman French variety, which unlike
mainland
Norman French has not been strongly influenced by standard French lexis,
although in recent years, there has been large scale borrowing from
English. The dictionary gives English language equivalents for each SNF
term, along with grammatical information and etymologies for each entry.
There is also an English-SNF finder list.

AFTER ETYMOLOGY:
 TOWARDS A SUBSTANTIVIST LINGUISTICS

PROBAL DASGUPTA, University of Hyderabad, Hyderabad,
RAJENDRA SINGH, Universite de Montreal, Montreal
& ALAN J. FORD, Universite de Montreal, Montreal

The authors argue for a substantivist linguistics that parts company
with the excessive concern with etymology that has shaped much modern
work. Historical linguistics of the 19th century offered an Etymology of
Words, but that Etymology self-destructs, and merges into several
structuralist projects. On our construal, this self destruction arises
from Saussure's attempt to push the Neo-grammarian logic to the point of
demanding total accountability. But no structuralism can offer
synchronic sources for words. Since the linguist's etymological drive
remained intact while the historical wing of the enterprise became first
optional and marginal, the derivational impulse soght new objects. That
impulse seems to us to have exhausted itself in frankly but
unwarrantedly derivational accounts that are still the hall-marks of
contemporary linguistics. We need to go beyond such accounts and beyond
Etymology.
        The book  examines  what seem to be the core postulates of Etymologism
through their descriptive manifestations in grammar and argues for their
replacement with substantivist postulates. It also asks that  all
linguists take a serious look at the substantive compulsions that have
driven generative work not just to a revolution at the formal level, but
also to a continuous substantive follow-up within that revolution.

Faetar
NAOMI NAGY
University of New Hampshire

Faetar is a Francoprovengal dialect spoken in two villages in Apulia
(Faeto and Celle di San Vito), in southern Italy.  Faetar came to be
spoken in these villages due to a migration from southeastern France
(dipartement of Ain) around the 14th century.  An unwritten language, it
has incorporated aspects of Apulian Italian dialects during its 600
years of contact.  It is a doubly endangered language: Francoprovengal
has been virtually exterminated in France by agressive language
planning; and it is spoken by fewer than 800 people in Apulia due to a
mass exodus from rural areas.  It survives in emigrant pockets in Italy,
Switzerland, the U.S.A., and Canada.
        Faetar phonology resembles that of neighboring dialects, but is
distinguished by the phonemic presence of schwa and a process of
variable deletion of post-tonic segments and syllables.  It differs from
Francoprovengal in having phonemic geminates word-medially and phonetic
geminates at word boundaries.  The morphology is similar to southern
French dialects, with post-verbal negation, little agreement marking,
and obligatory subject pronouns.  It is distinct in that double subject
pronouns are frequently present and reduplication is used for emphasis.
Like both French and Italian, Faetar is SVO and left-branching.

Introduction to African Linguistics

NGESSIMO MUTAKA
Universiti de Yaoundi

With the collaboration of PIUS NGWA TAMANJI

An Introduction to African Linguistics deals with the main features of
languages as found mostly in Sub-Saharan Africa, and more particularly
in Bantu languages.
As mentioned by one of the authors,  "one motivation for writing the
book is that, during my graduate studies, I always wished I had access
to an introductory book of this nature. Very often,  Doug Pulleyblank
or  Larry Hyman would refer me to certain phonological processes found
in some African languages, and I thought it would be helpful if students
of African linguistics could have easier access to such examples in an
introductory book on African Linguistics. My hope is that this book will
prove interesting not only for most linguistics students but also for
any linguist or any linguistic sympathizer who will find in this book
precious information scattered in various published and unpublished
materials not easily accessible."
Maybe, what renders the book most unique is the three chapters on
Phonology: chapter 3: non tonal phonological processes, chapter 4:
tonological processes, chapter 5: exercises on phonological processes.
These chapters basically encapsulate the richness of African phonology
made available in one single introductory volume. Other chapters are
equally interesting. Thus chapter 8, "Notes on the historical
linguistics of African languages," provides background material on
African languages; chapter 7, "the Syntax of African languages,"
provides an easy-to-understand explanation of syntactic terms and their
illustrations through various African languages. This chapter is a
contribution of Pius N. Tamanji together with the sections on "lexical
expansion" in chapter 10, "verbal extensions,"and "tense, aspect and
mood" in chapter 6.

INTRODUZIONE ALLA LINGUISTICA LATINA
Moreno Morani, Universit` degli Studi di Genova

Il volume Introduzione alla linguistica latina si propone di collocare
la lingua latina nel panorama delle lingue indeuropee e di seguirne lo
sviluppo storico, dall'indeuropeo ricostruito fino al passaggio dal
latino alle lingue romanze. La trattazione discute i principali problemi
che lo studio della lingua latina in prospettiva diacronica presenta:
per ogni problema trattato viene esposta la storia dela discussione,
trattati criticamente i principali tentativi di soluzione proposti, con
ampio riferimento alle fonti bibliografiche. Il volume pur essere
utilizzato anche come manuale per lo studio universitario, grazie a
note, osservazioni e tabelle che forniscono un quadro sistematico della
materia trattata. Il volume tiene conto sia dei risultati raggiunti
dalle trattazioni "classiche" della linguistica indeuropea sia delle
riflessione e delle proposte delle moderne scuole di linguistica.

Introduzione alla linguistica greca
MORENO MORANI, Universit` degli Studi di Genova

L'Introduzione alla linguistica greca intende offrire una breve guida
per lo studio della lingua greca in una prospettiva di linguistica
storica. La lingua greca presenta due singolari caratteristiche: la
durata della sua attestazione (tre millenni e mezzo di storia) e la
presenza di numerose variet` dialettali. Tenendo conto di questa
premessa, il volume fornisce una panoramica generale delle problematiche
fonda-mentali attinenti alla formazione e allo sviluppo storico della
lingua, a partire dalla documentazione micenea: la lingua greca h
esaminata nel quadro della famiglia linguistica indeuropea, e vengono
analizzati, alla luce delle principali teorie proposte dagli studiosi, i
rapporti tra la lingua greca e l'indeuropeo ricostruito, le relazioni
con le altre lingue indeuropee, la presenza di elementi non indeuropei
nel greco. Per il secondo aspetto, si presentano le principali questioni
relative alla classificazione dei dialetti greci, dei quali si fornisce
anche una sommaria descrizione.
Per quanto l'interesse fondamentale della trattazione riguardi il greco
antico nelle sue principali manifestazioni letterarie, lo sviluppo della
lingua h seguito dalla documentazione micenea fino al periodo bizantino
e moderno. Il manuale h destinato agli studenti universitari e agli
insegnanti di lingue e letterature classiche, e contiene quelle nozioni
fondamentali di grammatica comparata e di storia della lingua che lo
possono rendere utile per un primo orientamento in problematiche
complesse che formano oggetto di discussioni complesse e talvolta
secolari.

Dependency reversal in noun-attributive constructions: towards a
typology

ANDREJ L. MALCHUKOV
Russian Academy of Sciences

This study is conceived as a contribution to a tyoplogy of attributive
contructions, focussing on constructions exhibiting splits of head
proporties. The term "dependency reversal in noun-attributive
constructions" (DNRA) is used to refer to possessive-like attributive
constructions (of the type (that) idiot of a doctor), with the attribute
surfacing as the formal head and the semantic head surfacing as the
formal possessor. The body of the study presents a discussion of DNRA
contructions as attested in six individual languages:
Even (resp. Other Tungusic languages), Aleut, Hausa, Gude, Chinook and
Latin. The variation of the DNRA patterns, in particular along the
parameter of the attribute's upgrading/recategorization, is further
considered.
Following the lines of structure-based typologies, an upward taxonomy of
DNRA structures is presented to include other cases of constructions
involving the attribute's upgrading and the head (-to-possessor)
demotion. In search of DNRA related patterns the discussion is extended
to internal relative clauses and constructions with "dominant
attributes". Finally factors favouring the rise of DNRA structures are
tentatively considered: apart from diachronic factors,
underdifferentiation of lexical categories as well as pragmatic salience
of the attribute are shown to contribute to DNRA processes.

Typology of Imperative Constructions

VICTOR S. XRAKOVSKIJ (ED.)
Russian Academy of Sciences,
Institute of Linguistic Research, Saint-Petersburg

The present volume has been prepared by the Language Typology Workshop
of the Russian Academy of Sciences Institute of Linguistic Research.
        The book continues the earlier studies of the Workshop
addressing
grammatical categories of the verb linked to the semantic and syntactic
structure of the sentence: (ed. A.A. Kholodovich) Typology of Causative
Constructions, Nauka: Leningrad, 1969; (ed. A.A. Kholodovich) Typology
of Passive Constructions, Nauka: Leningrad, 1974; (ed. V.P. Nedjalkov)
Typology of Resultative Constructions, Amsterdam, 1988; (ed. V.S.
Xrakovskij) Typology of Iterative Constructions, LINCOM EUROPA, Munchen,
1997; etc.
        The monograph focuses on imperative sentences and verb forms
used in
them. The main objective of this work is, by proceeding from the
universal  definition of the imperative concept, to describe the
imperative sentences from the angle of language typology.
        The volume consists of three parts. Part 1 contains two
chapters:
Chapter 1, outlining the theoretical concept of the research, and
Chapter 2, presenting a questionnaire on imperative sentences and
imperative verb forms. Part 2 contains 23 chapters on imperative
sentences in structurally different languages: Aleut, Armenian, Bamana,
Cambodian, English, Eskimo, Ewe, French, German, Gypsy, Hausa,  Hebrew,
Indonesian, Japanese, Kerek, Klamath, Maori, Mongol, Nivkh, Tagalog,
Turkic languages, Vietnamese, and Javanese. These 23 chapters are
grouped into five sections in consistence with five types of languages
that are  singled out basing on two major attributes: (i) presence or
absence of a specific imperative person/number paradigm, and (ii)
homogeneity or non-homogeneity of the forms in the imperative paradigm.
Part 3 provides an alternative interpretation of the imperative paradigm
that differs from the theory developed in the preceding chapters both in
its general approach and in specific aspects of analysis.

Genesis of the
Slovak Literary Language

KONSTANTIN VASILIEVICH LIFANOV
Lomonosov State University of Moscow

Contrary to Slovak historical linguistics, the Slovak Literary Language
did not arise in the 18th century as a result of Anton Bernolak's
codification of the West Slovak dialect. It developed gradually, over a
much longer period of time from the Old Czech Literary Language, which
was adopted by the Slovaks as their own written medium as early as by
the end of the 14th century. As a result of its interaction with mainly
the West Slovak dialect, its specific Slovak version arose in the 15th
century. By the 1630s, this written standard acquired the features of an
original literary language, separate from the literary language based on
the Prague standard.
However, since the first decades of the 17th century, a further
development of this written standard was complicated by the
Counter-Reformation. The use of the literary language followed different
paths among the Lutherans and among the Catholics. The Old Slovak
Literary Language attained a high degree of development among the
Catholics. Rich and varied spiritual literature was written in this
language, including a translation of the Bible in 1750, high-quality
secular baroque poetry, etc. In the 1780s, this standard was codified by
Bernolak.
Diglossia emerged among the Lutherans. They used both the Czech Literary
Language and the Old Slovak Literary Language. However, they did not
perceive the latter one as a literary norm and considered it acceptable
only in the "low" kinds of literature -- e.g., in popular poetry -- and
in administrative and legal documents. This diglossia was not abolished
until the 1820s, which opened the way for Ludovit Stur's codification of
the Modern Slovak Literary Language based on the Central Slovak folklore
koine.

Contents: Introduction. Chapter 1. The main thesis of the general theory
of literary language. Chapter 2. The formation of specific idiom
functioning in Catholic spiritual literature of the XVIth - XVIIIth
centuries and Bernolak's codification. Chapter 3. Interrelation of
Catholic "high" poetry language of the XVIIth - XVIIIth centuries and
the language of spiritual literature. Chapter 4. The character of
territorial differentiation and the evolution of the language of Slovak
administrative-legal documents.  Chapter 5. Central Slovak koine and the
language of poetry from the end of XVIIIth to the beginning of the XIXth
centuries. Chapter 6. A new concept of the genesis of the Slovak
Literary language. Conclusion. [written in Russian]

Variacisn actual y evolucisn historica:
los cliticos le/s, la/s, lo/s

FLORA KLEIN-ANDREU, State University of New York at Stony Brook

Se reabre la investigacisn de un tema conocido--la variacisn en el uso
de los clmticos espaqoles le/s la/s y lo/s--para esclarecer tanto su
situacisn actual como su evolucisn histsrica.  En relacisn con este tema
se plantean las preguntas siguientes:
?Cual es la relacisn actual entre distintas variedades geograficas y
distintas variedades sociales?
?Csmo se puede entender esta relacisn, como producto    histsrico?

La investigacisn se basa en aproximada-mente 150 horas de conversacisn,
grabada en distintas zonas geograficas histsricamente castellanas o
relacionadas con Castilla.  En cada una de ellas se distingue tambiin el
habla de distintos grupos:  Se recogen y analizan muestras de hablantes
de vida relativamente limitada a la zona (generalmente rurales),
comparandolas con muestras de la misma zona, pero de hablantes de ambito
mas extendido y mayor nivel educativo (generalmente profesionales
urbanos).  Esto permite identificar, en cada zona, un uso relativamente
"mas autsctono", distinguiindolo del que puede responder a normas mas
generalizadas, y determinar (1) en qui sentidos y medida difieren entre
sm, y tambiin (2) csmo difiere cada uno del uso de hablantes de niveles
analogos, pero de zonas geograficas diferentes.

Este procedimiento lleva a distinguir sistemas funcionales diferentes
que determinan el uso relativamente "mas autsctono" de distintas zonas
geograficas, y a proponer, como hipstesis contrastable con la
documentacisn histsrica, una secuencia de reinterpretaciones que los
conectarma temporalmente.  Tambiin permite entender el sentido de las
normas de preferencia en cuanto al uso de estas formas, tanto explmcitas
(prescriptivas) como facticas (inducibles del uso de aceptacisn mas
general), y las distintas observaciones tradicionales sobre este tema,
aclarando aparentes contradicciones.

Person prominence and relation prominence

On the typology of syntactic relations with special reference to Yucatec
Maya

Christian Lehmann, Yong-Min Shin,  & Elisabeth Verhoeven


Two types of syntactic structures are postulated, one of person
prominence, which is present in Standard Average European (SAE)
languages, following Benjamin L. Whorf's term, and one of relation
prominence, which is present in Yucatec Maya. The diverse structural
manifestations of the two types and their implications for the
organization of grammar are explored within eight mostly unrelated
languages, English, German, Korean, Lezgian, Maori, Samoan, Tamil, and
Yucatec Maya. The syntactic organization in different grammatical areas,
namely modal and phase operator constructions, possessive constructions,
experiential constructions, and benefactive constructions, is
investigated and the languages are arranged on a continuum of person and
relation prominence.

The study is intended for typologists, descriptive linguists and
mayanists, but may as well be of interest to philologists of any of the
other languages.

Christian Lehmann is professor for general and comparative linguistics
at the University of Erfurt. He mainly attends to the study of language
typology and the description of Yucatec Maya. Yong-Min Shin is writing
his dissertation thesis on 'Possessive and participant relations in
German and Korean' at the University of Bielefeld. Elisabeth Verhoeven
is writing her thesis on 'Experiencer constructions in Yucatec Maya' at
the same University.

A Conceptual Analysis of Tongan Spatial Nouns:
>From  Grammar to Mind

GIOVANNI BENNARDO
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

In Churchward (1953) a set of Tongan nouns are labeled 'local', that is
"construed as if it were the proper name of a place" (p. 88). Some of
these nouns reappear under another label, that is, 'preposed' nouns (p.
214-16) and they are defined as nouns that can be "placed immediately
before another noun instead of being connected with it by means of a
preposition" (p.214). This peculiarity was exploited by Broschart (1993)
to argue for a subset of these nouns to be considered as classifiers. In
this work the author tries to clarify the border of this fuzzy subset of
Tongan nouns differently addressed by Churchward and Broschard.

The analysis of this newly defined subset of Tongan nouns, 'spatial'
nouns, is conceptual, that is, based on a set of primitive (and possibly
universal) spatial concepts suggested by Lehman & Bennardo (1992) and
Bennardo (1993, 1996). The conceptual apparatus is the result of
extensive analyses conducted on both English and Tongan spatial
prepositions. Further analyses regarded representations of spatial
relationships in other languages like Burmese, Thai and Italian.

Following Lucy's suggestion, grammatical features of the Tongan language
represent the path along which the conceptual analysis moves. In fact,
five structural contexts in which the 'spatial' nouns appear represent
the starting point of the analysis. The analysis will weave through the
grammatical and conceptual levels and will end up in sorting the nouns
into three separate groups according to a combination of their
conceptual content and grammatical possibilities. Finally, the results
of this analysis call for an interesting modification of the conceptual
apparatus.

Comparative Morphology of Standard and Egyptian Arabic
Hassan A. H. Gadalla, Assiut University

The major concern of this book is the comparison of the morphological
aspects of Standard Arabic (SA) and Egyptian Arabic (EA). It is divided
into five chapters. Chapter One provides a phonological outline of SA
and EA. It also analyses morphological basics and the morphosyntactic
preliminaries of the two varieties. Chapter Two is devoted to the
morphology of triradical and quadriradical verbs. In addition, the
inflection of verbs for aspect/mood and voice and a treatment of verbal
affixes and verb derivation are provided.
Chapter Three deals with the morphology of primary and deverbal nouns.
Moreover, the divergence between definite and indefinite nouns and the
inflection of nouns for case, gender and number are explained. The
formation of the diminutive is also illustrated. Chapter Four handles
the morphology of adjectival stems. Then, the difference between
definite and indefinite adjectives and the inflection of adjectives for
case, gender, number and degree are analyzed. Furthermore, participial
forms and relational adjectives are discussed. Chapter Five is related
to the morphology of closed-list classes, including pronouns,
prepositions, adverbs, as well as interrogative and responsive
particles. Finally, negative and possessive particles are exhibited.

A Grammar of Mandarin Chinese

HUA LIN
University of Victoria

Mandarin Chinese is the official language in China, Taiwan and
Singapore, and the language with the largest number of native speakers.
In recent years, Mandarin usage has spread even further: it is now
taught in most schools in Hong Kong, and with the influx of immigrants
to the West from China and Taiwan, many parts of the world including
Canada, the United States, Australia, and Europe have seen a steady
increase in the number of speakers.  Mandarin is not a homogeneous
language; any grammar that tries to describe it needs to select one
region as its focus. In this book, the focus will be on Mandarin as is
spoken in its motherland of Northern China, especially the Chinese
capital of Beijing.

The book will begin by an introduction to the geographic
characteristics, dialects and historical development of the language.
This will be followed by Mandarin phonetics and phonology. Topics
covered include the syllable, tones, the consonants, the vowels, the
glides and, more importantly, how these interact to create the sound
structure of the language. A description of the morphology will follow,
addressing special features of the language in terms of compounding,
reduplication, word stress, and disyllabicity.  The remainder of the
book will be devoted to Mandarin syntax. It will first outline the major
parts of speech and the major types of phrases; then it will focus on
some salient syntactic features, including the topic-comment structure,
the serial-verb construction, and the de construction. The book will end
with two sample texts, each accompanied by interlinear translation and
free translation.

Hello Listmembers:

Could any of you please recommend to me the best introductory text you know
of on the Chinese Language (Mandarin or maybe Cantonese)?  Ideally, the text
would focus in good part on Chinese logography, the psychology of reading
the characters, and other considerations of their writing system.

Thank you for your time,

 In the framework of a research programme grant for three researchers,titled 'the Diachrony of Complex Predicates in West-Germanic', one four-year paid position is available for research leading to a doctoral thesis.
 The research programme as a whole is directed by professors Geert Booij (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam) and Ans van Kemenade (University of Nijmegen), and funded to a large extent by the Netherlands Organization for Scientific

Research, NWO. The aim of the programme is to come to an extensive, indepth, theoretically inspired and corpus-based study of the historical development of separable complex verbs in the West-Germanic languages. The programme comprises a postdoctoral project on Gothic and Old High German with Dr. Bettelou Los as the researcher; a PhD project on the history of Dutch with Corrien Blom as the researcher; and a PhD project on the history of English, for which we now seek a candidate. This project concentrates on (Middle) English, and will be conducted at the University of Nijmegen under the direction of prof. Ans van Kemenade.

 Requirements: the succesful candidate should have affinity with a theoretical approach as well as with detailed data research in computerized corpora. The institutional embedding of the project will ensure some further training in both of these aspects. We seek a candidate with undergraduate training in English, with a specialism in language/(historical) linguistics. For further information, contact a.v.kemenade at let.kun.nl. The post is tenable from 1 June 2001 or as soon as possible thereafter.

 A full description of the programme can also be found at:

A colleague who is not on the list asked me to forward the following query.

In the western USA, it is not uncommon to hear the phrase "on accident," as
in:

     I took his book on accident. I thought it was mine.

This form seems to replace the phrase "by accident" by analogy to the phrase
"on purpose." Preliminary research indicates the following results.

A. No speakers over the age of 34 report using "on accident." Many of these
speakers regard the form as uneducated and non-standard.

B. Most speakers below the age of 34 use "on accident" and consider "by
accident" formal or old-fashioned.

C. A few speakers from the central US (notably Kansas and Missouri) use both
"on accident" and "by accident." For these speakers, "on accident" is
considered "more accidental."

These data are based primarily on speakers from the western US and western
Canada. One respondent from Massachusets and one respondent from New Zealand
fall within the parameters of other respondents.

Have others noticed the use of "on accident" and "by accident"? Could you
please respond with your geographical location and approximate age. Any
related comments or analysis would also be welcome.

I will post a summary to the list if there is sufficient interest.

I have noticed that my son, Marcus Rini, age nine, consistently says "on
accident".  He lives with us in Charlottesville, VA, where he has lived all
his life, though his speech, in general, would not be considered
"Virginian", rather, mid-western (parents from Michigan and Ohio).  In
fact, the only "southern" feature that he has picked up is the local
pronunciation of "aunt", i.e., not homophonous with "ant").

I do believe it is analogical (in the strictest sense, i.e., proportional)
to "on purpose", the phrases being semantic opposites (although the words
purpose and accident are not really antonyms), thus:

purpose : on purpose :: accident : X = (on accident)

He has also similarly created "long-cut", most likely as follows:

short : short-cut :: long : X = (long-cut), meaning "the long way".

Another example of analogy of semantic opposites in this area (provided by
his friend) is the following:

out : sold out :: in : X = ("sold in"), referring to tickets for a movie
that were still available.

I cannot say that I have heard adults in the area use "on accident",
certainly not "sold in", nor "long-cut", but then again I haven't actively
listened for them in adult speech.

I am composing a perhaps premature summary of responses to my query about
the occurrence of the phrase "on accident," as I will be away for several
weeks.

ORIGINAL QUERY:

In the western USA, it is not uncommon to hear the phrase "on accident," as
in:

     I took his book on accident. I thought it was mine.

This form seems to replace the phrase "by accident" by analogy to the phrase
"on purpose."

[some omission]

Have others noticed the use of "on accident" and "by accident"? Could you
please respond with your geographical location and approximate age. Any
related comments or analysis would also be welcome.

END ORIGINAL QUERY

By far, the majority of respondents report _never_ having heard the
expression "on accident." Several reported that the expression seems marked
or "clearly ungrammatical." No respondents from outside of the USA, of any
age, report having heard the expression, and most from the USA report never
having heard it.

Leslie Barratt of Indiana State University adds this interesting
observation:

>I have been collecting data on this for about 3 years and will be writing
it up soon.  I have data from surveys I >did in Georgia, Indiana, Michigan,
and California, all of which point to the same conclusion that 'on' is
replaing >'by', although the exact ages may not be the same in every area.

Britt Mize from UNC has these observations:

>When I was between the ages of 5 and 9 [c. 1978, CDN] and my family
>lived in Freeport, Texas (on the Gulf coast), some of my neighbors and
>playmates were a family with six children, some older and some younger
>than I, all of whom used "on accident" exclusively.  (I mean the kids; I
>don't know about the parents.)  I am very sure of this because we spent
>a lot of time together over a period of several years.

Mize goes on to note that other features of the childrens' dialect seem to
mark them as non-Texan.

Joel Rini, of the University of Virginia, also notes the use by his own
child.

>I have noticed that my son, Marcus Rini, age nine, consistently says "on
>accident".  He lives with us in Charlottesville, VA, where he has lived all
>his life, though his speech, in general, would not be considered
>"Virginian", rather, mid-western (parents from Michigan and Ohio).

[some omission]

>I do believe it is analogical (in the strictest sense, i.e., proportional)
>to "on purpose", the phrases being semantic opposites (although the words
>purpose and accident are not really antonyms), thus:
>
>purpose : on purpose :: accident : X = (on accident)

So it seems that the usage is emerging, at least among younger speakers. I
regret that I can cite no work published on the phenomena, though at least
two scholars seem to be working in that direction.

One more thing strikes me about these responses. A few respondents point out
that the expression does exist in areas where other people claim never to
have heard it. Could it be that this expression is so unmarked as to go
unnoticed by speakers who do not use it? Or could the usage simply be so
localized that it is never used outside of a narrowly defined peer group?

Thanks to all who responded:

I fully agree with Tore's statements and wish just to add to Tore's last
paragr. that there are a few cases of double derivation: e.g. Ital. 're' <
Nomin. and Old Ital. 'rege' < Accus., Fr. 'on' < Lat. 'homo', Nomin. and
'homme' < Lat. 'homine(m)', Acc.

Message-ID: <WED.2.MAY.2001.130434.EDT.LARRYT@COGS.SUSX.AC.UK>

----------------------------Original message----------------------------
A few days ago, I posted a query on which case-form of a Latin noun or
adjective was typically borrowed into other languages.  I posted my query
because it was suggested on another list that borrowing of the accusative
was the norm -- as indeed it was in Basque.  I doubted the generalization,
but I lacked the evidence to reply.

I received nine helpful responses, some of which were posted to the list.
The reports can be summed up as follows.

In Basque, as I reported, in cases in which we can tell, it is almost
always the accusative which is borrowed, though in a few cases it is the
nominative, and in one case it is the vocative.  I forgot to mention that
there are also one or two cases of the borrowing of the genitive -- and
indeed the Latin genitive ending <-is> is widely thought to be the origin
of the medieval Basque patronymic suffix <-iz> (phonetic [-is]).

In Welsh, it is often impossible to tell, but there are a few clear cases
in which the nominative was borrowed, and a few more in which some oblique
case was borrowed (can't always tell which oblique case that was).  In the
case of day-names, there is reason to suspect that a genitive was borrowed.

In Old Irish, there are a few clear cases of borrowed nominatives.

In Albanian, it is often hard to tell, but there exist cases in which the
form borrowed was certainly oblique, and most likely the accusative.

In Gothic, and in Germanic generally, early borrowings are often
unmistakably taken from the Latin nominative, though later borrowings are
often taken from the accusative -- though it is not clear that the Latin
nominative was still in spoken use at the time these borrowings, at least
in the relevant area.

So, it appears that the evidence does not support a contention that
borrowing of the Latin accusative was the norm everywhere and always.
Fine.

Several of the respondents provided some specific examples from their
specialist languages; for these I am grateful, but I won't reproduce them
here.

Some respondents also commented on the survival of Latin case-forms into
the Romance vernaculars, and on purely literary borrowings; this material
too I will not reproduce here.

My thanks to Miguel Carrasquer Vidal, Richard Coates, John Hines, Martin
Huld, Tore Janson, Elizabeth Pyatt, Paolo Ramat, Max Wheeler, and Roger
Wright.

Modern Hebrew


ORA (RODRIGUE) SCHWARZWALD
Bar Ilan University

Modern Hebrew revival in Israel during the last century is a unique
phenomenon: a written language used by Jews over 1700 years for either
liturgy or writing has become a spoken language used for all purposes.
Although the revivers of Hebrew tried to base the spoken language on the
grammar of Hebrew classical periods, the phonetic and grammatical
structure of Modern Hebrew shows divergence from it due to various
factors.
        New words in Modern Hebrew are derived primarily in three ways: 1.
combination of a consonantal root with pattern, e.g. g-d-l+-i-e- > gidel
'raised,' g-d-l+mi--a- > migdal 'tower'; 2. stem + affix, e.g. bank+ay >
bankay 'banker,' migdal+i > migdali 'tower-like'; 3. blends, e.g. migdal
+ 'or 'light' > migdalor 'lighthouse.' Loan words are added from various
sources with some phonetic adaptation, e.g. bank, telefon, and can
follow Hebrew derivational rules, e.g. telefoni 'of the phone (adj),'
t-l-f-n+-i-e- > tilfen 'telephoned (v).'
        All verbs are derived by root and (seven) patterns' combination, unlike
nouns. There are three tenses and one mood in the verb. Nouns are either
masculine or feminine. Person inflection in the verbs is obligatory, and
so is preposition inflection. Nouns and adjectives are inflected for
number and gender, but possessive inflection is limited in nouns, e.g.
yadi ~ hayad  eli 'my hand.'
        Modern Hebrew is an SVO language with an alternating VSO word order
that was dominant in classical Hebrew. Topicalization and other word
order shifts are possible. Adjectives follow head nouns, but numeral
quantifiers precede them. Nominal sentences with no copula are very
common in Hebrew, e.g. hi yafa 'she (is) beautiful.' Copulative verbs
are obligatory in the past or the future tense.
        The lexicon of Modern Hebrew is composed of original Hebrew words from
all its language periods together with loan words. Semantic shifts occur
in many original words, however, a lot of the changes are due to loan
translations or loan shifts.

Lexicon of Sark Norman French

Anthony J. Liddicoat, Griffith University

Sark Norman French (SNF) is a Norman French variety spoken on the island
of Sark, the smallest of the Channel Islands. The variety is spoken by
fewer than 50 people and is in a state of obsolescence. SNF was
established on Sark in the sixteenth century by a group of mainly Jersey
Norman French speakers, but then evolved in relative isolation until
late nineteenth century.

        SNF is a very conservative Norman French variety, which unlike
mainland
Norman French has not been strongly influenced by standard French lexis,
although in recent years, there has been large scale borrowing from
English. The dictionary gives English language equivalents for each SNF
term, along with grammatical information and etymologies for each entry.
There is also an English-SNF finder list.

AFTER ETYMOLOGY:
 TOWARDS A SUBSTANTIVIST LINGUISTICS

PROBAL DASGUPTA, University of Hyderabad, Hyderabad,
RAJENDRA SINGH, Universite de Montreal, Montreal
& ALAN J. FORD, Universite de Montreal, Montreal

The authors argue for a substantivist linguistics that parts company
with the excessive concern with etymology that has shaped much modern
work. Historical linguistics of the 19th century offered an Etymology of
Words, but that Etymology self-destructs, and merges into several
structuralist projects. On our construal, this self destruction arises
from Saussure's attempt to push the Neo-grammarian logic to the point of
demanding total accountability. But no structuralism can offer
synchronic sources for words. Since the linguist's etymological drive
remained intact while the historical wing of the enterprise became first
optional and marginal, the derivational impulse soght new objects. That
impulse seems to us to have exhausted itself in frankly but
unwarrantedly derivational accounts that are still the hall-marks of
contemporary linguistics. We need to go beyond such accounts and beyond
Etymology.
        The book  examines  what seem to be the core postulates of Etymologism
through their descriptive manifestations in grammar and argues for their
replacement with substantivist postulates. It also asks that  all
linguists take a serious look at the substantive compulsions that have
driven generative work not just to a revolution at the formal level, but
also to a continuous substantive follow-up within that revolution.

Faetar
NAOMI NAGY
University of New Hampshire

Faetar is a Francoprovengal dialect spoken in two villages in Apulia
(Faeto and Celle di San Vito), in southern Italy.  Faetar came to be
spoken in these villages due to a migration from southeastern France
(dipartement of Ain) around the 14th century.  An unwritten language, it
has incorporated aspects of Apulian Italian dialects during its 600
years of contact.  It is a doubly endangered language: Francoprovengal
has been virtually exterminated in France by agressive language
planning; and it is spoken by fewer than 800 people in Apulia due to a
mass exodus from rural areas.  It survives in emigrant pockets in Italy,
Switzerland, the U.S.A., and Canada.
        Faetar phonology resembles that of neighboring dialects, but is
distinguished by the phonemic presence of schwa and a process of
variable deletion of post-tonic segments and syllables.  It differs from
Francoprovengal in having phonemic geminates word-medially and phonetic
geminates at word boundaries.  The morphology is similar to southern
French dialects, with post-verbal negation, little agreement marking,
and obligatory subject pronouns.  It is distinct in that double subject
pronouns are frequently present and reduplication is used for emphasis.
Like both French and Italian, Faetar is SVO and left-branching.

Introduction to African Linguistics

NGESSIMO MUTAKA
Universiti de Yaoundi

With the collaboration of PIUS NGWA TAMANJI

An Introduction to African Linguistics deals with the main features of
languages as found mostly in Sub-Saharan Africa, and more particularly
in Bantu languages.
As mentioned by one of the authors,  "one motivation for writing the
book is that, during my graduate studies, I always wished I had access
to an introductory book of this nature. Very often,  Doug Pulleyblank
or  Larry Hyman would refer me to certain phonological processes found
in some African languages, and I thought it would be helpful if students
of African linguistics could have easier access to such examples in an
introductory book on African Linguistics. My hope is that this book will
prove interesting not only for most linguistics students but also for
any linguist or any linguistic sympathizer who will find in this book
precious information scattered in various published and unpublished
materials not easily accessible."
Maybe, what renders the book most unique is the three chapters on
Phonology: chapter 3: non tonal phonological processes, chapter 4:
tonological processes, chapter 5: exercises on phonological processes.
These chapters basically encapsulate the richness of African phonology
made available in one single introductory volume. Other chapters are
equally interesting. Thus chapter 8, "Notes on the historical
linguistics of African languages," provides background material on
African languages; chapter 7, "the Syntax of African languages,"
provides an easy-to-understand explanation of syntactic terms and their
illustrations through various African languages. This chapter is a
contribution of Pius N. Tamanji together with the sections on "lexical
expansion" in chapter 10, "verbal extensions,"and "tense, aspect and
mood" in chapter 6.

INTRODUZIONE ALLA LINGUISTICA LATINA
Moreno Morani, Universit` degli Studi di Genova

Il volume Introduzione alla linguistica latina si propone di collocare
la lingua latina nel panorama delle lingue indeuropee e di seguirne lo
sviluppo storico, dall'indeuropeo ricostruito fino al passaggio dal
latino alle lingue romanze. La trattazione discute i principali problemi
che lo studio della lingua latina in prospettiva diacronica presenta:
per ogni problema trattato viene esposta la storia dela discussione,
trattati criticamente i principali tentativi di soluzione proposti, con
ampio riferimento alle fonti bibliografiche. Il volume pur essere
utilizzato anche come manuale per lo studio universitario, grazie a
note, osservazioni e tabelle che forniscono un quadro sistematico della
materia trattata. Il volume tiene conto sia dei risultati raggiunti
dalle trattazioni "classiche" della linguistica indeuropea sia delle
riflessione e delle proposte delle moderne scuole di linguistica.

Introduzione alla linguistica greca
MORENO MORANI, Universit` degli Studi di Genova

L'Introduzione alla linguistica greca intende offrire una breve guida
per lo studio della lingua greca in una prospettiva di linguistica
storica. La lingua greca presenta due singolari caratteristiche: la
durata della sua attestazione (tre millenni e mezzo di storia) e la
presenza di numerose variet` dialettali. Tenendo conto di questa
premessa, il volume fornisce una panoramica generale delle problematiche
fonda-mentali attinenti alla formazione e allo sviluppo storico della
lingua, a partire dalla documentazione micenea: la lingua greca h
esaminata nel quadro della famiglia linguistica indeuropea, e vengono
analizzati, alla luce delle principali teorie proposte dagli studiosi, i
rapporti tra la lingua greca e l'indeuropeo ricostruito, le relazioni
con le altre lingue indeuropee, la presenza di elementi non indeuropei
nel greco. Per il secondo aspetto, si presentano le principali questioni
relative alla classificazione dei dialetti greci, dei quali si fornisce
anche una sommaria descrizione.
Per quanto l'interesse fondamentale della trattazione riguardi il greco
antico nelle sue principali manifestazioni letterarie, lo sviluppo della
lingua h seguito dalla documentazione micenea fino al periodo bizantino
e moderno. Il manuale h destinato agli studenti universitari e agli
insegnanti di lingue e letterature classiche, e contiene quelle nozioni
fondamentali di grammatica comparata e di storia della lingua che lo
possono rendere utile per un primo orientamento in problematiche
complesse che formano oggetto di discussioni complesse e talvolta
secolari.

Dependency reversal in noun-attributive constructions: towards a
typology

ANDREJ L. MALCHUKOV
Russian Academy of Sciences

This study is conceived as a contribution to a tyoplogy of attributive
contructions, focussing on constructions exhibiting splits of head
proporties. The term "dependency reversal in noun-attributive
constructions" (DNRA) is used to refer to possessive-like attributive
constructions (of the type (that) idiot of a doctor), with the attribute
surfacing as the formal head and the semantic head surfacing as the
formal possessor. The body of the study presents a discussion of DNRA
contructions as attested in six individual languages:
Even (resp. Other Tungusic languages), Aleut, Hausa, Gude, Chinook and
Latin. The variation of the DNRA patterns, in particular along the
parameter of the attribute's upgrading/recategorization, is further
considered.
Following the lines of structure-based typologies, an upward taxonomy of
DNRA structures is presented to include other cases of constructions
involving the attribute's upgrading and the head (-to-possessor)
demotion. In search of DNRA related patterns the discussion is extended
to internal relative clauses and constructions with "dominant
attributes". Finally factors favouring the rise of DNRA structures are
tentatively considered: apart from diachronic factors,
underdifferentiation of lexical categories as well as pragmatic salience
of the attribute are shown to contribute to DNRA processes.

Typology of Imperative Constructions

VICTOR S. XRAKOVSKIJ (ED.)
Russian Academy of Sciences,
Institute of Linguistic Research, Saint-Petersburg

The present volume has been prepared by the Language Typology Workshop
of the Russian Academy of Sciences Institute of Linguistic Research.
        The book continues the earlier studies of the Workshop
addressing
grammatical categories of the verb linked to the semantic and syntactic
structure of the sentence: (ed. A.A. Kholodovich) Typology of Causative
Constructions, Nauka: Leningrad, 1969; (ed. A.A. Kholodovich) Typology
of Passive Constructions, Nauka: Leningrad, 1974; (ed. V.P. Nedjalkov)
Typology of Resultative Constructions, Amsterdam, 1988; (ed. V.S.
Xrakovskij) Typology of Iterative Constructions, LINCOM EUROPA, Munchen,
1997; etc.
        The monograph focuses on imperative sentences and verb forms
used in
them. The main objective of this work is, by proceeding from the
universal  definition of the imperative concept, to describe the
imperative sentences from the angle of language typology.
        The volume consists of three parts. Part 1 contains two
chapters:
Chapter 1, outlining the theoretical concept of the research, and
Chapter 2, presenting a questionnaire on imperative sentences and
imperative verb forms. Part 2 contains 23 chapters on imperative
sentences in structurally different languages: Aleut, Armenian, Bamana,
Cambodian, English, Eskimo, Ewe, French, German, Gypsy, Hausa,  Hebrew,
Indonesian, Japanese, Kerek, Klamath, Maori, Mongol, Nivkh, Tagalog,
Turkic languages, Vietnamese, and Javanese. These 23 chapters are
grouped into five sections in consistence with five types of languages
that are  singled out basing on two major attributes: (i) presence or
absence of a specific imperative person/number paradigm, and (ii)
homogeneity or non-homogeneity of the forms in the imperative paradigm.
Part 3 provides an alternative interpretation of the imperative paradigm
that differs from the theory developed in the preceding chapters both in
its general approach and in specific aspects of analysis.

Genesis of the
Slovak Literary Language

KONSTANTIN VASILIEVICH LIFANOV
Lomonosov State University of Moscow

Contrary to Slovak historical linguistics, the Slovak Literary Language
did not arise in the 18th century as a result of Anton Bernolak's
codification of the West Slovak dialect. It developed gradually, over a
much longer period of time from the Old Czech Literary Language, which
was adopted by the Slovaks as their own written medium as early as by
the end of the 14th century. As a result of its interaction with mainly
the West Slovak dialect, its specific Slovak version arose in the 15th
century. By the 1630s, this written standard acquired the features of an
original literary language, separate from the literary language based on
the Prague standard.
However, since the first decades of the 17th century, a further
development of this written standard was complicated by the
Counter-Reformation. The use of the literary language followed different
paths among the Lutherans and among the Catholics. The Old Slovak
Literary Language attained a high degree of development among the
Catholics. Rich and varied spiritual literature was written in this
language, including a translation of the Bible in 1750, high-quality
secular baroque poetry, etc. In the 1780s, this standard was codified by
Bernolak.
Diglossia emerged among the Lutherans. They used both the Czech Literary
Language and the Old Slovak Literary Language. However, they did not
perceive the latter one as a literary norm and considered it acceptable
only in the "low" kinds of literature -- e.g., in popular poetry -- and
in administrative and legal documents. This diglossia was not abolished
until the 1820s, which opened the way for Ludovit Stur's codification of
the Modern Slovak Literary Language based on the Central Slovak folklore
koine.

Variacisn actual y evolucisn historica:
los cliticos le/s, la/s, lo/s

FLORA KLEIN-ANDREU, State University of New York at Stony Brook

Se reabre la investigacisn de un tema conocido--la variacisn en el uso
de los clmticos espaqoles le/s la/s y lo/s--para esclarecer tanto su
situacisn actual como su evolucisn histsrica.  En relacisn con este tema
se plantean las preguntas siguientes:
?Cual es la relacisn actual entre distintas variedades geograficas y
distintas variedades sociales?
?Csmo se puede entender esta relacisn, como producto    histsrico?

La investigacisn se basa en aproximada-mente 150 horas de conversacisn,
grabada en distintas zonas geograficas histsricamente castellanas o
relacionadas con Castilla.  En cada una de ellas se distingue tambiin el
habla de distintos grupos:  Se recogen y analizan muestras de hablantes
de vida relativamente limitada a la zona (generalmente rurales),
comparandolas con muestras de la misma zona, pero de hablantes de ambito
mas extendido y mayor nivel educativo (generalmente profesionales
urbanos).  Esto permite identificar, en cada zona, un uso relativamente
"mas autsctono", distinguiindolo del que puede responder a normas mas
generalizadas, y determinar (1) en qui sentidos y medida difieren entre
sm, y tambiin (2) csmo difiere cada uno del uso de hablantes de niveles
analogos, pero de zonas geograficas diferentes.

Este procedimiento lleva a distinguir sistemas funcionales diferentes
que determinan el uso relativamente "mas autsctono" de distintas zonas
geograficas, y a proponer, como hipstesis contrastable con la
documentacisn histsrica, una secuencia de reinterpretaciones que los
conectarma temporalmente.  Tambiin permite entender el sentido de las
normas de preferencia en cuanto al uso de estas formas, tanto explmcitas
(prescriptivas) como facticas (inducibles del uso de aceptacisn mas
general), y las distintas observaciones tradicionales sobre este tema,
aclarando aparentes contradicciones.

Person prominence and relation prominence

On the typology of syntactic relations with special reference to Yucatec
Maya

Christian Lehmann, Yong-Min Shin,  & Elisabeth Verhoeven


Two types of syntactic structures are postulated, one of person
prominence, which is present in Standard Average European (SAE)
languages, following Benjamin L. Whorf's term, and one of relation
prominence, which is present in Yucatec Maya. The diverse structural
manifestations of the two types and their implications for the
organization of grammar are explored within eight mostly unrelated
languages, English, German, Korean, Lezgian, Maori, Samoan, Tamil, and
Yucatec Maya. The syntactic organization in different grammatical areas,
namely modal and phase operator constructions, possessive constructions,
experiential constructions, and benefactive constructions, is
investigated and the languages are arranged on a continuum of person and
relation prominence.

The study is intended for typologists, descriptive linguists and
mayanists, but may as well be of interest to philologists of any of the
other languages.

Christian Lehmann is professor for general and comparative linguistics
at the University of Erfurt. He mainly attends to the study of language
typology and the description of Yucatec Maya. Yong-Min Shin is writing
his dissertation thesis on 'Possessive and participant relations in
German and Korean' at the University of Bielefeld. Elisabeth Verhoeven
is writing her thesis on 'Experiencer constructions in Yucatec Maya' at
the same University.

A Conceptual Analysis of Tongan Spatial Nouns:
>From  Grammar to Mind

GIOVANNI BENNARDO
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

In Churchward (1953) a set of Tongan nouns are labeled 'local', that is
"construed as if it were the proper name of a place" (p. 88). Some of
these nouns reappear under another label, that is, 'preposed' nouns (p.
214-16) and they are defined as nouns that can be "placed immediately
before another noun instead of being connected with it by means of a
preposition" (p.214). This peculiarity was exploited by Broschart (1993)
to argue for a subset of these nouns to be considered as classifiers. In
this work the author tries to clarify the border of this fuzzy subset of
Tongan nouns differently addressed by Churchward and Broschard.

The analysis of this newly defined subset of Tongan nouns, 'spatial'
nouns, is conceptual, that is, based on a set of primitive (and possibly
universal) spatial concepts suggested by Lehman & Bennardo (1992) and
Bennardo (1993, 1996). The conceptual apparatus is the result of
extensive analyses conducted on both English and Tongan spatial
prepositions. Further analyses regarded representations of spatial
relationships in other languages like Burmese, Thai and Italian.

Following Lucy's suggestion, grammatical features of the Tongan language
represent the path along which the conceptual analysis moves. In fact,
five structural contexts in which the 'spatial' nouns appear represent
the starting point of the analysis. The analysis will weave through the
grammatical and conceptual levels and will end up in sorting the nouns
into three separate groups according to a combination of their
conceptual content and grammatical possibilities. Finally, the results
of this analysis call for an interesting modification of the conceptual
apparatus.

Comparative Morphology of Standard and Egyptian Arabic
Hassan A. H. Gadalla, Assiut University

The major concern of this book is the comparison of the morphological
aspects of Standard Arabic (SA) and Egyptian Arabic (EA). It is divided
into five chapters. Chapter One provides a phonological outline of SA
and EA. It also analyses morphological basics and the morphosyntactic
preliminaries of the two varieties. Chapter Two is devoted to the
morphology of triradical and quadriradical verbs. In addition, the
inflection of verbs for aspect/mood and voice and a treatment of verbal
affixes and verb derivation are provided.
Chapter Three deals with the morphology of primary and deverbal nouns.
Moreover, the divergence between definite and indefinite nouns and the
inflection of nouns for case, gender and number are explained. The
formation of the diminutive is also illustrated. Chapter Four handles
the morphology of adjectival stems. Then, the difference between
definite and indefinite adjectives and the inflection of adjectives for
case, gender, number and degree are analyzed. Furthermore, participial
forms and relational adjectives are discussed. Chapter Five is related
to the morphology of closed-list classes, including pronouns,
prepositions, adverbs, as well as interrogative and responsive
particles. Finally, negative and possessive particles are exhibited.

A Grammar of Mandarin Chinese

HUA LIN
University of Victoria

Mandarin Chinese is the official language in China, Taiwan and
Singapore, and the language with the largest number of native speakers.
In recent years, Mandarin usage has spread even further: it is now
taught in most schools in Hong Kong, and with the influx of immigrants
to the West from China and Taiwan, many parts of the world including
Canada, the United States, Australia, and Europe have seen a steady
increase in the number of speakers.  Mandarin is not a homogeneous
language; any grammar that tries to describe it needs to select one
region as its focus. In this book, the focus will be on Mandarin as is
spoken in its motherland of Northern China, especially the Chinese
capital of Beijing.

The book will begin by an introduction to the geographic
characteristics, dialects and historical development of the language.
This will be followed by Mandarin phonetics and phonology. Topics
covered include the syllable, tones, the consonants, the vowels, the
glides and, more importantly, how these interact to create the sound
structure of the language. A description of the morphology will follow,
addressing special features of the language in terms of compounding,
reduplication, word stress, and disyllabicity.  The remainder of the
book will be devoted to Mandarin syntax. It will first outline the major
parts of speech and the major types of phrases; then it will focus on
some salient syntactic features, including the topic-comment structure,
the serial-verb construction, and the de construction. The book will end
with two sample texts, each accompanied by interlinear translation and
free translation.

Hello Listmembers:

Could any of you please recommend to me the best introductory text you know
of on the Chinese Language (Mandarin or maybe Cantonese)?  Ideally, the text
would focus in good part on Chinese logography, the psychology of reading
the characters, and other considerations of their writing system.

Thank you for your time,

 In the framework of a research programme grant for three researchers,titled 'the Diachrony of Complex Predicates in West-Germanic', one four-year paid position is available for research leading to a doctoral thesis.
 The research programme as a whole is directed by professors Geert Booij (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam) and Ans van Kemenade (University of Nijmegen), and funded to a large extent by the Netherlands Organization for Scientific

Research, NWO. The aim of the programme is to come to an extensive, indepth, theoretically inspired and corpus-based study of the historical development of separable complex verbs in the West-Germanic languages. The programme comprises a postdoctoral project on Gothic and Old High German with Dr. Bettelou Los as the researcher; a PhD project on the history of Dutch with Corrien Blom as the researcher; and a PhD project on the history of English, for which we now seek a candidate. This project concentrates on (Middle) English, and will be conducted at the University of Nijmegen under the direction of prof. Ans van Kemenade.

 Requirements: the succesful candidate should have affinity with a theoretical approach as well as with detailed data research in computerized corpora. The institutional embedding of the project will ensure some further training in both of these aspects. We seek a candidate with undergraduate training in English, with a specialism in language/(historical) linguistics. For further information, contact a.v.kemenade at let.kun.nl. The post is tenable from 1 June 2001 or as soon as possible thereafter.

----------------------------Original message----------------------------
A colleague who is not on the list asked me to forward the following query.

In the western USA, it is not uncommon to hear the phrase "on accident," as
in:

     I took his book on accident. I thought it was mine.

This form seems to replace the phrase "by accident" by analogy to the phrase
"on purpose." Preliminary research indicates the following results.

A. No speakers over the age of 34 report using "on accident." Many of these
speakers regard the form as uneducated and non-standard.

B. Most speakers below the age of 34 use "on accident" and consider "by
accident" formal or old-fashioned.

C. A few speakers from the central US (notably Kansas and Missouri) use both
"on accident" and "by accident." For these speakers, "on accident" is
considered "more accidental."

These data are based primarily on speakers from the western US and western
Canada. One respondent from Massachusets and one respondent from New Zealand
fall within the parameters of other respondents.

Have others noticed the use of "on accident" and "by accident"? Could you
please respond with your geographical location and approximate age. Any
related comments or analysis would also be welcome.

I will post a summary to the list if there is sufficient interest.

I have noticed that my son, Marcus Rini, age nine, consistently says "on
accident".  He lives with us in Charlottesville, VA, where he has lived all
his life, though his speech, in general, would not be considered
"Virginian", rather, mid-western (parents from Michigan and Ohio).  In
fact, the only "southern" feature that he has picked up is the local
pronunciation of "aunt", i.e., not homophonous with "ant").

I do believe it is analogical (in the strictest sense, i.e., proportional)
to "on purpose", the phrases being semantic opposites (although the words
purpose and accident are not really antonyms), thus:

purpose : on purpose :: accident : X = (on accident)

He has also similarly created "long-cut", most likely as follows:

short : short-cut :: long : X = (long-cut), meaning "the long way".

Another example of analogy of semantic opposites in this area (provided by
his friend) is the following:

out : sold out :: in : X = ("sold in"), referring to tickets for a movie
that were still available.

I cannot say that I have heard adults in the area use "on accident",
certainly not "sold in", nor "long-cut", but then again I haven't actively
listened for them in adult speech.

I am composing a perhaps premature summary of responses to my query about
the occurrence of the phrase "on accident," as I will be away for several
weeks.

ORIGINAL QUERY:

In the western USA, it is not uncommon to hear the phrase "on accident," as
in:

     I took his book on accident. I thought it was mine.

This form seems to replace the phrase "by accident" by analogy to the phrase
"on purpose."

[some omission]

Have others noticed the use of "on accident" and "by accident"? Could you
please respond with your geographical location and approximate age. Any
related comments or analysis would also be welcome.

END ORIGINAL QUERY

By far, the majority of respondents report _never_ having heard the
expression "on accident." Several reported that the expression seems marked
or "clearly ungrammatical." No respondents from outside of the USA, of any
age, report having heard the expression, and most from the USA report never
having heard it.

Leslie Barratt of Indiana State University adds this interesting
observation:

>I have been collecting data on this for about 3 years and will be writing
it up soon.  I have data from surveys I >did in Georgia, Indiana, Michigan,
and California, all of which point to the same conclusion that 'on' is
replaing >'by', although the exact ages may not be the same in every area.

Britt Mize from UNC has these observations:

>When I was between the ages of 5 and 9 [c. 1978, CDN] and my family
>lived in Freeport, Texas (on the Gulf coast), some of my neighbors and
>playmates were a family with six children, some older and some younger
>than I, all of whom used "on accident" exclusively.  (I mean the kids; I
>don't know about the parents.)  I am very sure of this because we spent
>a lot of time together over a period of several years.

Mize goes on to note that other features of the childrens' dialect seem to
mark them as non-Texan.

Joel Rini, of the University of Virginia, also notes the use by his own
child.

>I have noticed that my son, Marcus Rini, age nine, consistently says "on
>accident".  He lives with us in Charlottesville, VA, where he has lived all
>his life, though his speech, in general, would not be considered
>"Virginian", rather, mid-western (parents from Michigan and Ohio).

[some omission]

>I do believe it is analogical (in the strictest sense, i.e., proportional)
>to "on purpose", the phrases being semantic opposites (although the words
>purpose and accident are not really antonyms), thus:
>
>purpose : on purpose :: accident : X = (on accident)

So it seems that the usage is emerging, at least among younger speakers. I
regret that I can cite no work published on the phenomena, though at least
two scholars seem to be working in that direction.

One more thing strikes me about these responses. A few respondents point out
that the expression does exist in areas where other people claim never to
have heard it. Could it be that this expression is so unmarked as to go
unnoticed by speakers who do not use it? Or could the usage simply be so
localized that it is never used outside of a narrowly defined peer group?
