ven. 03/02/2017 Atelier Morphosyntaxe -- Imperatives & commands -- Introduction (1) by Marine Vuillermet & Nina Dobrushina
14h
ISH, Ennat Léger

Our theme, imperatives and commands, targets the study of “those situations in which the speaker wishes a state of affair (SoA) to (not) become true and conveys an appeal to the addressee(s) (or a third person) to help make this SoA (not) true” (adapted from Mauri & Sanso’s 2011:3491). Such situations are very instrumental in regulating joint activities and are highly frequent in discourse (see e.g. Xrakovskij & Birjulin 2001:4; Mauri & Sansò 2011:3489), and are accordingly associated to several interesting research questions. During the seminar, we would like to address the following ones:

  1. their tendency to heterogeneity in their morphological encoding(s) – languages vary from having or just a single dedicated imperative marker (2nd person) to one for each traditional grammatical persons (i.e. 6 forms as in Hungarian) (van der Auwera, Dobrushina & Goussev 2003; Jarry & Kissine 2016);
  2. the semantics associated to the numerous strategies available – e.g. the semantic (and morphological) impact of the grammatical person of the potential performer, or the restriction in verb types available to a specific encoding, or the existence of alternative indirect (but often highly conventionalized) directive expressions in reaction to the pragmatic specificity of this face threatening device;
  3. their origins (again, frequently influenced by the grammatical person as shown by (Mauri & Sansò 2011)).
We will also consider peripheral types of directive situations, especially the apprehensives and the optatives, which, respectively, primarily encode the speaker’s judgement of possible undesirability and the speaker’s wishes.

jeu. 09/02/2017 Atelier HELAN2: Sergio Meira "The origin of ‘relational prefixes’ in the Tupi-Guarani Language Family"
14h00-15h30
ISH, Ennat Leger

In the literature on Tupi-Guarani languages (a sub-branch of the Tupian family, one of the largest linguistic groupings in South America), a certain phenomenon has received a lot of attention from descriptive linguists: the so-called "relational prefixes", which act as linking elements between a head and a modifier (e.g., possessor-possessum, object-verb, argument-postposition). They have been typically treated as independent morphemes that mark the existence of a dependency relation between these elements. In this talk, the result of current diachronic research on these elements is described, leading up to the conclusion that, originally, they were not independent elements, but merely the result of sandhi rules applying to a certain initial segment, here reconstruct as *T. This new protosegment, together with the aforementioned sandhi rules, explains not only the "relational prefixes", but also a number of other strange alternations at morpheme boundaries in other areas of the grammar of Tupi-Guaranian languages, thus providing independent support for this hypothesis. At the end, the possibility of "morphologization" of sandhi rules (i.e., the pros and cons of a morpheme analysis for the "relational prefixes") in the present day languages will also be discussed.

This second introduction session focuses on the peripheral types of directive situations, especially the apprehensives (by M. Vuillermet) and the optatives (by N. Dobrushina), which, respectively, primarily encode the speaker’s judgement of possible undesirability and the speaker’s wishes.

10h00-12h00
ISH - André Frossard


ven. 17/02/2017 Atelier typologie sémantique -- The apprehensional domain, an introduction -- by Marine Vuillermet
14h
Salle Berty Albrecht (100 A), 16 avenue Berthelot (1er étage)

The goal of this seminar is to collaboratively elaborate a kit of experimental stimuli in the framework of semantic typology. While the general description of a language requires to be based on a balanced corpora (e.g. Himmelmann 1998), the semantic exploration of the language can undoubtedly be facilitated by experimental stimuli, especially non-linguistic ones (Lüpke 2009; Majid 2012; Ponsonnet 2014). Such stimuli not only help to seize semantic specificities in a language, but also allow to investigate variation within a community and may facilitate crosslinguistic comparison.

The specific domain to be considered in this seminar is the “apprehensional domain” or the grammatical expression of fear, defined as a judgement of undesirable possibility (Vuillermet Submitted). Apprehensional morphology is so far little known in the literature (see for e.g. Plank’s 2013 call), probably for some of the following reasons: heterogeneous terminology, infrequency in corpora and (consequently) short accounts (if any) in grammatical descriptions. However, a preliminary crosslinguistic investigation shows that such morphemes are present in a number of languages, especially in the Amazonian and Australian areas.

The collaborative reflection on an adequate stimuli will not only benefit from the various fieldwork experience of the DDL field linguists, but also from its psycholinguists. The seminar will be organized as follows:

  • 1st session (17/02): Introduction of the apprehensional domain and the parameters to be considered
  • 2nd session (10/03): Presentation of experimental stimuli in Psycholinguistics by N. Bedouin and Broad typology of materials used in field linguistics (by M. Vuillermet)
  • 3rd session (31/03): Participative session on the participants’ own experience with stimuli and associated discussion
  • 4th session (21/04): Brainstorming on possible stimuli targeting the apprehensional domain.

ven. 03/03/2017 Séminaire DTT - Conférence Natalia Eraso (Bibliothèque Publique et Universitaire de Neuchatel)
14h-16h
ISH, Salle Ennat Léger

Marcadores de movimiento asociado-direccionales en tanimuka (tucano, Colombia)

Esta investigación se focaliza en la presentación de un paradigma de tres sufijos, tradicionalmente denominados ‘marcadores direccionales’, que van sufijados a una base verbal. Los tres morfemas son: -ra’á- ‘venir hacia acá’, -wa’- ‘ir hacia allá’ y -ta- ‘ir hacia arriba/hacia abajo’. Dos de estos tres sufijos reúnen diversas funciones: -ra’á- ‘venir hacia acá’ y -wa’- ‘ir hacia allá’ codifican, no solo un desplazamiento deíctico, sino una relación temporal -posterior o simultanea- al evento descrito por el verbo principal al cual van sufijados y parecen también expresar una noción modal o aspectual. Se consideran entonces, de manera especial, como marcadores de movimiento asociado. El ‘movimiento asociado’ (asociated motion) es un término utilizado para hacer referencia a una categoría de afijos verbales que se han encontrado documentados en varias lenguas indígenas de Australia y Suraméricana. Este tipo de estrategia, sin embargo, no es corriente en las lenguas de la familia tucano, lo que remite de nuevo a una característica particular del tanimuka, a saber, ser una lengua atípica, dentro del seno de las lenguas de la familia tucano oriental.
