Laki Verbal Inflection

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Human languages more or less deviate from canonical patterns in mapping form and content. All sorts of noncanonical properties are of great significance when it comes to capture generalizations and patterns in description of world languages. Here I discuss some aspects of the inflectional morphology in verbal paradigms of Laki, classified as a Northwestern Iranian language. The realization of person and number properties via a polyfunctional system constitutes a significant portion of Laki inflectional morphology as a noncanonical representation of form/content mapping. Its person and number system embodies an inventory of clitics and suffixes, which encode distinct but related content depending on the context in which they appear. This work, being concerned with mechanisms involved in Laki verbal inflectional system, tries to give an overview of its morphotactic patterning.

Autorenporträt

Currently, I am doing my first year of PhD in linguistics at University of Toronto. I¿ve been mostly working on inflectional morphology, and its interface with phonology, and syntax. Investigating affix ordering, agreement, defaults, how and where they are overridden, are a few of my many interests in inflectional morphology.
