Proto-Mundurukú and the Diachronic Phonology of Mundurukú |
|

14h00-15h30 |
|
ISH-Ennat Leger |
This talk addresses the research project «The Diachronic Phonology of Mundurukú», which aims at reconstructing the history of the Mundurukú language family, by comparing Mundurukú and Kuruaya, as well as examining the changes in the sound system of Mundurukú over a period of time. Mundurukú is one of the 10 families of the Tupí linguistic stock that consists of two languages: Mundurukú and Kuruaya (Rodrigues 1970). The Mundurukú population totals approximately 13,000 people; from these, 8,845 Mundurukú live on indigenous reserves lands, mostly in the federal states of Pará and Amazonas, North region of Brazil. Mundurukú is very much alive in Pará, whereas in Amazonas there are only five elderly speakers; yet, efforts have been made recently to revive the language with help from Pará speakers. The sister language Kuruaya, formerly spoken along the Upper Xingu river, is now extinct.
Preliminary historical changes were pointed out by Picanço (2005, 2008, 2010). These works discuss specific changes in the consonant inventory, nasal harmony and phonation types. By the research proposed here, we intend not only to deepen our understanding of the issues studied previously, but also to extend the analysis to the entire phonemic inventory (vowels and consonants), the tonal system, other phonological and morphophonological phenomena (e.g., lenition of initial consonants), and to the reconstruction of the maximum number of lexical items. A considerable amount of comparative data on these languages has been considered, including recordings from the last three Kuruaya speakers, and from one of the last Mundurukú speakers of Amazonas, in addition to wordlists from earlier works (e.g. Nimuendajú, 1930; Snethlage, 1910).

L’aphasie est un trouble acquis du langage survenant suite à une lésion cérébrale, dont
l’anomie, ou manque du mot, est le symptôme le plus fréquent et persistant. L’anomie peut
affecter toutes les catégories grammaticales. Les recherches ont longtemps ciblé la
récupération des noms, alors que les thérapies concernant la récupération des verbes restent
rares. Pourtant, les verbes jouent un rôle essentiel dans la production d’énoncés. Les données
de la littérature ont montré que la production de verbes d’action activait des aires semblables
à celles activées lors de la réalisation de cette même action. Pour bénéficier de ce lien existant
entre action et langage, nous avons développé une thérapie combinant trois stratégies
sensorimotrices en vue de faciliter la récupération de la capacité à nommer des verbes
d’action chez des personnes aphasiques chroniques avec anomie des verbes modérée à
sévère.
La première partie de l’exposé présentera les principes de cette thérapie. La seconde partie
ciblera les résultats comportementaux obtenus auprès d’un groupe de personnes atteintes
d’aphasie chronique, ainsi que les corrélats neurofonctionnels obtenus en IRM fonctionnelle.

Séminaire DTT - Conférence de Maurice Pico (Universiteit Leiden)
The feedback between syntax and functions of determiners in Yokot'an |
|
|
14h-16h |
|
ISH - Salle Berty Albrecht |
The purpose of this talk is to discuss my ongoing research of the NP in Yokot'an (a Mayan language of the Cholan branch spoken in Mexico), situating the grammaticalization of the article ni within the wider context of NP syntactic structure.
It has been proposed that definite articles in the Cholan branch have raised through syntactic reanalysis of clefted (complex) clauses into dislocated (simplex) clauses (Becquey 2014, building on Mora-Marin 2009). This involves an implicit adjustment of the NP syntactic integrity whereby a non-verbal clefted predication is now reinterpreted as a single “articled” NP constituent preceded by a demonstrative-like focus marker. This interaction between information structure, clausal structure and NP structure leads to the following questions. What should count as an article? And what is the mutual feedback between function and the syntactic distribution of nominal determiners?
Following ideas by Himmelman (1997) on the link between article grammaticalization and the emergence of the syntactic structure in NPs, I wish to explore the relation between the syntactic structure of the NP in Yokot'an and the functionality of deictic enclitics, demonstratives and the definite article.
