From David.Rood at Colorado.EDU Wed Dec 1 13:11:47 2010 From: David.Rood at Colorado.EDU (ROOD DAVID S) Date: Wed, 1 Dec 2010 06:11:47 -0700 Subject: happy news Message-ID: I am pleased to announce to everyone on this list that Armik Mirzayan just finished his dissertation on Lakota intonation and prosody. It's been a long time in the works, but I am very proud of what he has done. To me the most interesting finding is one that clarifies a long-standing mystery for me. You may know that the question enclitic in Lakota is sentence-final /he/, and that the e-ablaut form of the continuous (is verb-ing) enclitic is also /he/, though that one is underlying /haN/. Speakers always seem to know whether a given sentence is a continuative declarative or a question, even though the enclitics are identical. It turns out that questions have a different intonation pattern at the beginning of the sentence -- a question starts higher and often realizes the highest pitch slightly after the first stressed syllable. I guess I never thought to listen to the beginning of utterance for the clue. Of course there's a lot more, much of which is of interest to phoneticians and intonation specialists rather than just to Siouanists. The work should be available from UMI on whatever schedule they manage. Armik has lost his connection with this list due to some CU email address decision, but I've included his current email in this message if you want to write to him. Best wishes, David David S.

I'm glad to hear that Lakota has a question intonation. I always though it might have. You might be able to solve another mystery for me which is 'is there a difference in intonation between wh- questions and open questions?' i.e. might it help to distinguish 'where are you going? and 'are you going somewhere?', that's presuming that you could use tokhiya ninkta he? for both and that they don't in fact use different words to distinguish the two. In any case it would be interesting to know if they have difference intonations, as they do in English and also Persian, kuja miiri starting with a high tone on kuja 'where' and jaai miiri ending up high on miiri 'you go'. Congratulations again. Yours Bruce PS contributions from other Siouanists welcome. --- On Wed, 1/12/10, ROOD DAVID S wrote: > From: ROOD DAVID S > Subject: happy news > To: siouan at lists.Colorado.EDU > Cc: "Armik Mirzayan" > Date: Wednesday, 1 December, 2010, 13:11 > > I am pleased to announce to everyone on this list that > Armik Mirzayan just finished his dissertation on Lakota > intonation and prosody.

It's been a long time in the works, but I am very proud of what he has done. To me the most interesting finding is one that clarifies a long-standing mystery for me. You may know that the question enclitic in Lakota is sentence-final /he/, and that the e-ablaut form of the continuous (is verb-ing) enclitic is also /he/, though that one is underlying /haN/. Speakers always seem to know whether a given sentence is a continuative declarative or a question, even though the enclitics are identical. It turns out that questions have a different intonation pattern at the beginning of the sentence -- a question starts higher and often realizes the highest pitch slightly after the first stressed syllable. I guess I never thought to listen to the beginning of utterance for the clue. Of course there's a lot more, much of which is of interest to phoneticians and intonation specialists rather than just to Siouanists. The work should be available from UMI on whatever schedule they manage. Armik has lost his connection with this list due to some CU email address decision, but I've included his current email in this message if you want to write to him. Best wishes, David David S.

I'm glad to hear that Lakota has a question intonation. I always though it might have. You might be able to solve another mystery for me which is 'is there a difference in intonation between wh- questions and open questions?' i.e. might it help to distinguish 'where are you going? and 'are you going somewhere?', that's presuming that you could use tokhiya ninkta he? for both and that they don't in fact use different words to distinguish the two. In any case it would be interesting to know if they have difference intonations, as they do in English and also Persian, kuja miiri starting with a high tone on kuja 'where' and jaai miiri ending up high on miiri 'you go'. Congratulations again. Yours Bruce PS contributions from other Siouanists welcome. --- On Wed, 1/12/10, ROOD DAVID S wrote: > From: ROOD DAVID S > Subject: happy news > To: siouan at lists.Colorado.EDU > Cc: "Armik Mirzayan" > Date: Wednesday, 1 December, 2010, 13:11 > > I am pleased to announce to everyone on this list that > Armik Mirzayan just finished his dissertation on Lakota > intonation and prosody.
