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.

ven. 10/03/2017 Atelier typologie sémantique -- Quels stimuli expérimentaux pour quels objectifs et quels résultats? Avec N. Bedoin et M. Vuillermet
15h
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 Accepted). 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. 17/03/2017 Atelier Morphosyntaxe -- Imperatives & commands
Geny Gonzales (DDL) on Nam Trik (Barbacoan, Colombia)
Noé Gasparini (DDL) on Siriono (Tupi-Guarani, Bolivia)
14h-16h
ISH, Ennat Léger

Imperatives on Nam Trik (Barbacoan, Colombia)
The aim of this talk is to present some data about the imperatives in Nam Trik, a Barbacoan language spoken in the Colombian Andes. Nam Trik has specialized morphology for a second person imperative, with two forms, one for singular ‘IMP.SG’ and one for plural -ai ‘IMP.PL’, and a polite imperative with only one form for singular and plural -tro. This language also has a specialized construction for first person plural imperatives and another construction for imperative third person marked with the permissive morpheme -pash.

Directives in Siriono
The analysis of imperative in Siriono started in Berkeley in 2015 and was driven by the Speech act theory. Exploring how manipulative speech-acts are expressed grammatically in this Tupi-Guarani language led me to consider one canonical imperative and subcategories. A set of clitics are included in the study, some as directive force modifiers, others as the expression of a desire, a function often considered as part of the directive field but a separate domain in Siriono.

mar. 21/03/2017 "The many dimensions of the worldwide diversity of languages: teachings from fieldwork and laboratory approaches"

"Les multiples dimensions de la diversité des langues du monde : exemples d’approches de terrain et de laboratoire"
18h30 – 20h
Résidence du Collegium - bat. D6, campus ENS Descartes

Colette Grinevald, DDL, UMR 5596, CNRS-Université Lumière Lyon 2

Julien Meyer, CNRS Researcher, Laboratoire Grenoble Images Parole Signal Automatique (GIPSA) UMR 5216, CNRS-Université Grenoble Alpes

Human languages are among the finest and the most complex inventions of human intelligence. They inform us about our history, our fascinating cognitive capacities and the way we adapt to our social and environmental surroundings. This talk will highlight the many dimensions of the worldwide diversity of human languages with examples taken from both fieldwork and laboratory analyses of the two authors. It will follow their work around the world, making stops in several places of Europe, Oregon, Alaska, Central America, the Amazon, South East Asia and Africa. It will also consider the diversity and resemblances of languages of different modalities, such as the visually iconic sign languages and Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic script, and will include innovative research on whistled and drummed forms of speech still used by some local populations living in dense forests and cliffy mountains for long distance communication.

Les langues font partie des inventions les plus fines et complexes de l’intelligence humaine. Elles nous renseignent sur notre histoire, sur nos capacités cognitives étonnantes et sur la manière dont nous nous adaptons à notre contexte social et environnemental. Cette conférence mettra en évidence les différentes dimensions de la diversité des langues du monde. Elle suivra le travail des deux orateurs autour du monde, en faisant des étapes en Europe, Oregon, Alaska, Amérique centrale, Amazonie, Asie du Sud-Est et Afrique. Elle détaillera également la diversité et les ressemblances des langues dans différentes modalités, comme les langues des signes et les hiéroglyphes égyptiens visuellement iconiques, ou même des recherches innovantes sur les formes sifflées et tambourinées de la parole qui sont encore utilisées de nos jours par des populations locales vivant dans des forêts denses ou des montagnes escarpées pour se parler à longue distance.

ven. 24/03/2017 Atelier Morphosyntaxe -- Imperatives & commands Magdalena Lemus: Imperatives in Yukuna (Arawak)
14h-16h
ISH, Ennat Léger

This talk will present the encoding of imperatives in Yukuna, a North Amazonian Arawak language of Colombia. Yukuna has a sentential imperative, with no overt morphological marking, used with second person singular and plural. In contrast to this, Yukuna has a dedicated verbal suffix for third person imperatives -ré, and a prohibitive -niña. The main morphosyntactic properties of these constructions will be discussed, as well as their specific semantics. Finally, other strategies used in the expression of directives will be addressed, notably the case of suffix -chí, often associated with first person directives.

Language and Literacy Skills in Emerging Bilinguals with Typical and Less Typical Development

by Professor Esther Geva (Department of Applied Psychology and Human Development, The Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE), University of Toronto)

ABSTRACT
With the high number of immigrants and refugees to Europe, North America and the Australian continent, most of whom are second language (L2) learners, it is important to understand what are the language and literacy needs of culturally and linguistically diverse children and adolescents - those who are typically developing, those whose education has been disrupted, and those who may have a learning disability (LD).
Much of my research on L2 reading development has been guided by general questions such as: What does typical development of language and literacy skills in L2 look like? Do L2 learners catch up with their monolingual peers? Are models of reading based on monolingual readers applicable where L2 students are concerned? What aspects of reading are related to language proficiency in the L2 and what aspects are not? How do reading and language skills in the native language relate to L2 reading skills? Is it possible to identify reading disabilities or language impairment in L2 learners even when they are not fluent in the L2? In my presentation I will address these fundamental questions and illustrate some general trends on the basis of research conducted in my lab. Depending on interest and time constraints I will discuss the implications of this research for practice, professional training, and policy.

mar. 28/03/2017 Journée d'études Typologie des langues du Caucase
9h-17h
ISH - salle Elise Rivet

Morning session: 9.00 - 12.00

1. An overview of East Caucasian languages and their neighbours: families, contacts, typological profiles (approx. 30 min) Michael Daniel

This is a short survey of the linguistic families endemic to, or represented in, the Caucasus. We will provide a very general introduction to the typological properties of the languages of the Caucasus, focusing on the languages of the East Caucasian language family.

2. Moods in East Caucasian (60 min) Nina Dobrushina
In this lecture, I will present a survey of non-indicative moods in East Caucasian. I will treat expression of inducement to different persons (imperative / hortative / jussive), morphosyntactic structure of volitional clauses, and the meaning of the optative in Daghestanian languages. I will also discuss the domain of irrealis, with a special focus on conditional constructions.

3. Two ditransitive strategies in East Caucasian: Recipient split? (90 mins) Michael Daniel
East Caucasian languages show a typologically rare pattern of discriminating two types of 'give'-situations by alternating inflectional marking on the recipient NP. I will walk the audience through different possible semantic interpretations of the phenomenon, to come up, in the end, with a less obvious - but also more theoretically plausible and promising - interpretation of the contrast, ultimately linking it to the two-layered model of semantic roles and the dual nature of the situations of transfer.

Afternoon session: 13.30 - 17.00

4. Person agreement in Archi, Dargwa and Nakh: gender or what? (90 mins) Michael Daniel

Unlike the widespread gender, person agreement is not typical of East Caucasian languages. Archi, Dargwa and Nakh do person reference by means of gender agreement (person by other means, in terms of Corbett et al's). Unlike other NPs with plural human reference, first and second plural pronouns unexpectedly control non-human plural agreement. After discussing some typologically peculiar morphosyntactic properties of this agreement, I will suggest, as one possibility, a functional explanation of how this pattern may have emerged.

5. Where have all the adjectives ended up: a study in Archi statives (60 mins) Michael Daniel
It is well known from the typology of property words that adjectives is the least stable part-of-speech category, torn between nouns and verbs. The typological profile under which the property words are verbs is sometimes called adjectival-verb languages. In this paper, I argue that merely showing that a property word is a predicate rather than an attribute is not equivalent to arguing that it is, morphosyntactically, a verb. To use Dixon's metaphor (Where have all adjectives gone?) , Archi is an example of a language whose property words certainly went all the way to become predicative items. However, they remained a separate morhosyntactic class and did not (fully) assimilate with verbs.

6. Agreement classes in East Caucasian: the rise and fall of structuralism (60+ mins if we have time) Michael Daniel
If we will survive so far in this long day, I will consider nominal class (gender) systems in several East Caucasian languages. Here, a small set of cognate markers are combined into multiple singular - plural pairs, forming from three to many 'agreement classes'. I will show that following the insightful Zalizniak's structuralist approach in his seminal book on Russian gender does not provide a plausible description of the gender systems in East Caucasian. Instead of ascribing nominal class (gender) to a lexical item on the whole, one should ascribe it separately to its number forms, singular vs. plural. This provides a more semantically transparent and more parsimonious description of at least some of the systems.

ven. 31/03/2017 Atelier typologie sémantique -- Experimental stimuli
Participative session on the participants’ own experience with experimental stimuli and discussion
