<p class="MsoNormal">My student (Alan Ray) is looking for examples of vocative markers (morphological or otherwise) that express a distance distinction. For example, in Wik Mungkan (Pama-Nyungan, Australia), there are three vocative suffixes distinguishing
proximal (-ang), medial (-(e)ey), and distal addressees (-(o)oy):<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">We'd be grateful for any pointers towards similar and/or relevant data from other languages. So far, the only language we are aware of with a clearly morphological/lexical (two-way) distance distinction is Kugu Nganhcara. But Alan has found
differences in stress, length, pitch, volume and/or vowel lengthening or “distortion” correlating with addressee distance in languages such as Arrernte, Kaytetye, Anmatyer, Wirangu, Nyigina, Nunggubuyu and Mangarayi (all from Australia). Alan's work focuses
on Aboriginal languages of Australia, but we would be very interested to see analogous examples from elsewhere.<o:p></o:p></p>
