SUMMARY:Victoria Chen - Coastal Formosan\, Nuclear Austronesian\, and beyond: How do Formosan languages Inform Theories of Austronesian Expansion?
DESCRIPTION:Topics:\n\n\nLanguage and Linguistics\, Taiwan Studies\n\n\n\n\nRegister now\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Indigenous languages of Taiwan feature two patterns of morphological discrepancy. First\, only some possess a symmetrical morphological paradigm associated with a phenomenon known as ‘noun-verb homophony’. Second\, only a handful of the languages allow the Proto-Austronesian stative affix ma- to be used in a transitive clause. This talk addresses how these two foci of variation inform our understanding of the Austronesian diaspora and further explains how new comparative data on these phenomena offers a simpler answer to two ongoing debates in the field. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue
