[Lingtyp] (A)symmetry of linguistic convergence in different domains

[Adam James Ross Tallman]

Hey Ian!

Another famous example is the Vaupes region of Brazil/Venezula.*
Roughly, *there
is a type of institutionalized multilingualism in the area, but there are
taboos on lexical borrowing for some groups. On the other hand, there is
well documented convergence in certain structural domains.

Sasha Aikhenvald wrote a whole book
<https://books.google.de/books/about/Language_Contact_in_Amazonia.html?id=zrUe5BBAIJQC&redir_esc=y>
about it ...  and Pattie Epps has also written substantially
<https://minio.la.utexas.edu/colaweb-prod/person_files/0/70/EppsCV.pdf> on
the topic.

best,

Adam
