<p>Dear all, </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Nearly two years ago, several of you responded to a query on this list regarding pain interjections. </p>
<p>With the help of Christophe Coupé, Kasia Pisanski, François Pellegrino and Aitana Garcia Arasco, we took this further and identified puzzling <a href="https://pubs.aip.org/asa/jasa/article/156/5/3118/3319867/Vowel-signatures-in-emotional-interjections-and" class="OWAAutoLink">form-meaning
correlations in pain interjections</a>. </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I am very grateful for all your contributions, which confirmed my inclination to investigate the matter.</p>

<p>Today, I am considering a different question, namely which emotions languages tend to describe as nouns (rather than words from other classes). </p>
<p>In <a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/07268602.2024.2329890" class="OWAAutoLink">
Australian languages this is reasonably easy to investigate</a>, due to a relative scarcity of abstract nouns. </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>In order to put the Australian distribution into typological perspective, I am now looking for other languages with small numbers of nouns/abstract nouns/emotion nouns. </p>
