[Lingtyp] Remind-Me particles across languages

Dear Jeanne,

What an interesting question, I am glad someone is looking into this.

In Chini (Lower Sepik-Ramu, Papua New Guinea), there are a few things to
note. (1) The adverb nuvkunI 'again' is used (using I for barred i here,
IPA symbols dont show up on the listserv). There is also a grammaticalized
form of this word, nI,  a clitic that attaches to the verb complex. It is
not to my knowledge used in this type of situation. (2) Depending on what
is meant, the irrealis plural form of the question word for 'what' mikngi
(as opposed to the more common paucal form, mIyi) may be used together with
nuvkunI in this circumstance, for ex in the following sentence, here a
reminder question the speaker was posing to herself. (mikngi more or less
translates as 'what out of all possibilities'.)

ku nuvkunI agIyikI mikngi achina?
ku nuvkunI agI-yi=kI m-i-kngi achi-n-a?
1SG.NOM again go.upriver-R.PC=CNT.R DIST-IRR-PL\what do.IRR-NMLZ.IRR.PFV-Q.R
'What was it I was going to go upriver (and) do again?'

Note the remind-me usage of nuvkunI isn't found in verbless clauses. In the
example you give, when asking for a reminder of someone's name (something
which a fieldworker necessarily asks a lot..) you say simply "What (lit.
where) is her/his name ("again")? nggI yigI ma? [3SG.POSS name where]

Cheers
Joseph
