This involves Korean, Nanai (Tungusic), Xalxa and Ordos (Mongolian), Japanese, Nivkh, Santali (Munda), and Kammu (Mon-Khmer). I'm slowly finding common general mappings, even though the phonological systems aren't identical. For example, in Korean (using Martin's dictionary), expressives in initial dental stops appears largely to encode the notion of blunt force used to displace or overwhelm defenders of abstract territories, as if an attacker was attempting to become the top dog in a contest. With palatal stop initials, on the other hand, the set largely codes for dependents, followers, and other voluntary hangers-on, who might be hoping to join in a hierarchy led by some other person. I've seen such mappings in other languages areas as well, but they are NOT universal. Anyone here know of any prior work along these lines, looking at these systems as specifying particular configurations within social physics?<div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Jess Tauber</div><div><a href="mailto:tetrahedralpt@gmail.com" target="_blank">tetrahedralpt@gmail.com</a></div></div><div id="gmail-m_3418366781330937635DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2"><br>
