Resúmenes / Resumos / Abstracts

On Mẽbengokre futures: temporal and modal dimensions Ana Arregui (University of Ottawa), María Luisa Rivero (University of Ottawa), Andrés Pablo Salanova (University of Ottawa) 1. Introduction. This paper investigates the relation between temporal, modal and aspectual dimensions in Mẽbengokre. As illustrated by (1), temporal, modal and aspectual notions are expressed in Mẽbengokre by optional left-peripheral particles in two distinct positions (a), (b), or by post-verbal elements (c). The first of these positions, in particular, encodes a temporal contrast between a non-future nẽ and a future dja, as exemplified in (2) (These sentences are not neutral in information structure terms. The phrase to the left of the temporal particle receives a contrastive focus interpretation that we ignore here for expository purposes.) 2. The puzzle. This temporal contrast is both robust and pervasive in the language, and yet it is clear that temporality is only one part of the meaning of the future dja. In examples that receive a reading temporally oriented towards the speech time, dja can give rise to an inferential/epistemic interpretation (illustrated by (3) with an adverbial example: (3) reports an inference regarding the proposition that Kajtire has already arrived to his house at the speech time). The interpretation of dja depends on aspectual categories in a manner that likely mirrors the interaction between nonfuture nẽ and the aspectual class of the main predicate. With nẽ, stative predicates tend to be interpreted as present in the absence of other aspectual marks, whereas dynamic predicates are interpreted as past in similar conditions; with the future dja, stative predicates favor the modal interpretation, whereas dynamic predicates favor a temporal interpretation (in the absence of explicit aspectual marking). The modal flavor attributed to dja is in line with proposals for two closely related languages in which the contrast between 'future' and 'past' has been characterized in terms of mood (realis vs. irrealis) (Oliveira 2005 on Apinayé, Nonato 2013 on Kĩsêdjê). The epistemic modal reading of 'future' morphology is also found in unrelated languages (e.g. Spanish, cf. (4)), but is not universal (e.g. is absent in Navajo, cf. (5)). 3. Proposal. We explore a proposal that characterizes dja as a modal marker without temporal orientation and propose that the temporal anchoring of the eventuality depends on other elements in the clause (e.g. aspectual markers, adverbs). This is in line with recent proposals that have claimed that 'future' morphology lacks a temporal interpretation (e.g. Matthewson 2012 for Gitksan, Broekhuis and Verkuyl 2014 for German and Dutch, Giannakidou and Mari 2017 on Greek and Italian, Kush 2015 on Hindi). The inferential reading of dja is, in this account, dealt with modally in terms of quantification over circumstances compatible with the knowledge/evidence available to the speaker. The temporal reading is treated in terms of quantification over possibilities that match actuality in the past, but may differ in the future (e.g. Condoravdi 2001, Kaufmann 2005). 4. Interaction with evidential we. Interactions with other evidentials show that dja in examples like (3) is indeed functioning as an evidential/epistemic marker. Take, for instance, the hearsay evidential we, used in all statements based on second-hand information. Though it is possible to have both dja and we in the same sentence, the former will only get its non- evidential future interpretation in those cases. As illustrated by (6), it is impossible to combine conjectural evidentiality with inferential or hearsay evidentiality in a single clause. 5. Summary. This talk characterizes the epistemic meaning of dja and explores its functioning within the evidential and temporal system of Mẽbengokre. The Mẽbengokre pattern constitutes one instance of a cross-linguistically common pattern of organization of evidential distinctions into a morphologically nonhomogeneous paradigm, namely one where inferentials differ from other evidentials and pattern with tense. We explore the consequences of our analysis of Mẽbengokre for understanding evidentials in other languages exhibiting this pattern. (a) (b) (c) (1) Karinhô nẽ ba arỳm akôr onhỹ.

Towards an explanation of postverbal negative ma in the languages of the Andean foothills

Johan van der Auwera & Olga Krasnoukhova (University of Antwerp)

It has been observed that the morpheme ma is widely used for negation in South and (Payne 1990:77, Campbell 2012:299, Aikhenvald 2012:71). Michael (2014) offers an in-depth account on the role of ma in the family. Nevertheless many questions remain open. Based on a large-scale comparative study on negative ma, this paper makes the following contribution: The occurrence of ma in standard negation is (unexpectedly) sporadic in the Eastern part of , but is strongly present in the Western part. There, the syntactic position of ma shows a pattern which needs to be accounted for. A preverbal use of ma is dominant in Quechuan and Arawak languages (as well as further north in Mayan), and this accords well with the universal preference for preverbal negation (e.g. Dahl 1979, Dryer 1988, 2013). But in languages spoken in the Andean foothills, negative ma tends to be postverbal (e.g. Awa Pit, Panoan, Tacanan, Western Tucanoan).This use, in turn, reflects the strong (but unexplained) preference of South American languages for postverbal negation - independently of the negator they use (van der Auwera & Vossen 2016: 193; Vossen 2016: 318-321; Muysken et al. 2014: 306). Closer inspection of postverbal ma suggests three processes. First, for Tacanan and Panoan, postverbal ma can be argued to derive from postpositions (similar but not identical to Michael’s 2014 scenario for Arawak). Second, for Western Tucanoan, postverbal ma suggests an areal effect. And third, for the languages with verb-embracing double negation (postverbal ma plus another preverbal negator), such as Araona and Tacana (Pitman 1980: 25, Ottaviano & Ottaviano 1967: 150, Guillaume 2016), and Panoan Matís (Ferreira 2001: 73-75), all evidence points to a Jespersen Cycle ‘in reverse’ (van der Auwera & Vossen 2016: 208; Vossen 2016: passim). In this scenario, the original negator is postverbal and the strengthening happens in the preverbal domain. A challenging case is Maropa, which deviates from the other Tacanan languages by having a preverbal negative ma (Guillaume 2009: 40, 2012: 216). Two hypotheses are discussed: (i) preverbal ma results from a Jespersen Cycle in reverse with ma V ma doubling, (ii) preverbal ma is influenced by contact with a preverbal ma language (Quechua or Spanish).

Doctoral dissertation, University of Antwerp. Reanalyzing aspectual inflection in Panará verbs

Bernat Bardagil-Mas (University of Groningen / UC Berkeley)

Introduction is talk discusses verbal inflection in Panará, a Northern Jê language spoken in central Brazil. Previous work on the language (Dourado , ) concluded that verbal roots presented an inflection system whereby bare roots alternated with an affix, -ri/ -ti. In this approach, that Dourado puts forward as an initial hypothesis, the bare root of the verb would encode imper- fective aspect, while the suffix would encode perfective (Dourado : ). e novel data discussed in this talk strongly suggest that there is no aspect inflection whatsoever in Panará. Instead, Panará verbs have a three-way inflection: (a) matrix non-future, (b) future, (c) dependent.

Verbal forms As can be seen in the available data (), the identification of the suffixed verb form as an exponent of perfective tense is not consistent with the interpretation provided in translations or glosses. As an exponent of perfectivity, Panará verbal inflection appears to be highly idiosyncratic. e actual role played by TAM inflectional categories in Panará has a direct relevance for the myrphosyntactic system of Panará. In Jê languages generally, the case marking alignment is accus- ative in clauses with a short form of the verb, and ergative case alignment is present exclusively in nominal environments (Salanova ), marked with a long form of the verb. Dependent clauses obligatorily take a long-form verb, and consequently the case marking alignment is ergative (). However, unlike what reportedly happens in every other Jê language, the case marking of ar- guments in Panará in dependent clauses is identical to that of main clauses (). e absence of a morpologically active aspect category in Panará is therefore a crucial issue to understand both clause type and case marking in the language.

Panará verbal inflection As mentioned, Panará verbs have a two-way inflectional opposition: matrix vs. dependent () and future vs. non-future (). Not all verbs present all three forms, but in those that do their distribution is systematic. Some verbs have a longer form that is obligatory in future contexts, while the shorter form is restricted to non-future contexts. e actual shape of the non-future and future verb forms appears to be rather sui generis: there is non-future sânpun and future sânpuri “see”, but we get an invariable pĩri “kill.” e consistent generalization is that the future form is the non-future form as theme plus some extra material, either a coda or a syllable. It is argued that rather than aspect, the TAM category that is active in Panará is tense, with the future/non-future opposition. Finally, the hypothesis is explored that Panará verb forms expone a distinction between paratactic constructions (a) and hypotactic constructions (b).

() a. [ ] [ -ri] b. [ [ -ra]]

Conclusion Rather than reflecting a paradigmatic opposition based on aspectual exponence, Panará verbal inflection is beer analyzed as exponing a partially overlapping exponence of clause type and tense. Evidence from case marking, TAM morphology and clause structure also support the hypo- thesis that all Panará clauses are finite. Examples

Victoria Beiras del Carril, Paola Cúneo & María del Rosario Haddad (Universidad de Buenos Aires)

El presente trabajo se centra en el “rap originario” como práctica comunicativa, artístico-musical y cultural entre los jóvenes qom (o toba, Guaycurú, Gran Chaco) que viven en contextos urbanos en Buenos Aires (). En un escenario de marcado desplazamiento de la lengua indígena y aun cuando muchos jóvenes adquirieron el español como primera lengua, observamos que el rap contribuye a (re)crear usos de la lengua vernácula y a (re)definir identidades étnicas.

En base al trabajo etnográfico y al análisis de un corpus de canciones y de material audiovisual (cf. Haddad 2013), nos proponemos estudiar los aspectos lingüísticos, poéticos y musicales así como la función social de este género que – ejecutado de manera bilingüe– permea elementos propios del grupo social qom a la vez que comparte rasgos del movimiento del hip hop. El trabajo se propone por lo tanto contribuir al estudio del arte verbal qom en nuevos contextos situados de uso.

Desde la perspectiva de la ejecución (performance) (Bauman 1975), se atenderá al uso de recursos específicos, entre los cuales el cambio de código, la rima y el juego verbal bilingüe poseen un rol relevante. La yuxtaposición de ambas lenguas funciona tanto con fines poéticos así como ideológicos e identitarios, en tanto habilita y tensa las convenciones gramaticales y fonológicas (Sherzer 2002). En este sentido, observaremos que el rap condensa el repertorio lingüístico en lengua vernácula de esta generación y que permite repensar la noción de competencia comunicativa entre estos jóvenes qom.

A su vez, desde el punto de vista musical, se observarán aspectos como el ritmo, la melodía y los modos de cantar/rapear, en diálogo con la incorporación de elementos culturales indígenas como el nvique (instrumento musical monocorde perteneciente al patrimonio musical qom). Por lo tanto, entendemos el rap qom como práctica social creativa que genera y transforma identidades y relaciones sociales, que indexicaliza –a través del cambio de código o de la incorporación del nvique– formas particulares y dinámicas de autoadscripción étnica y que contribuye a la recreación de usos de la lengua qom.

En contraste con una retórica que acentúa las tendencias de pérdida de la lengua vernácula en contextos migratorios, adoptamos una mirada positiva sobre el contacto lingüístico y hacemos hincapié en los efectos de continuidad y en la negociación activa de los hablantes –en particular los jóvenes– como agentes en la persistencia de las lenguas amenazadas.

The nine tonemes of Ticuna, an Amazonian oddity ! Denis Bertet (Université Lumière-Lyon 2, DDL research center)

Ticuna is a spoken by an approximate 50,000 ethnic in Western Amazonia, across the borders of , Colombia and Brazil. The language’s unusually rich toneme inventory, consisting of 10 contrastive units in stressed syllables and 5 in unstressed syllables, makes it exceptional from both a typological and an areal point of view. Except for epenthetic syllables, each and every Ticuna syllable is lexically attached one toneme – which in specific morphosyntactic contexts may automatically alternate with some other toneme. No complex sandhi-like realization rules apply: each toneme, whether lexical or morphosyntactically conditioned, is always realized as its corresponding tone in the syllable it belongs to. A relatively straightforward phonological analysis of firsthand data from the San Martín de Amacayacu (SMA; Colombia) variety collected in 2015-2017 yields the following toneme inventory:

Toneme inventory in stressed syllables in unstressed syllables 36 pitch 5 pitch 52 — 4 — 34 — 3 — 43 — 1 — 33 — creaky phonation1 31 — 22 — 21 — terminal creaky voice phonation1 initial creaky voice —

TABLE 1 | SMA Ticuna toneme inventory (N.B.: 6 = highest F0; 1 = lowest F0) A comparably rich analysis probably holds for other Ticuna varieties, among others Caballococha and Cushillococha (Peru) Ticuna (Anderson, 1959, 1962; Skilton, pers. com.). In today’s SMA Ticuna at the very least, there seems to be no way to account for minimal pairs (such as those presented in APPENDIX, TABLE 2) with a more economic toneme inventory (such as Montes, 1995’s pioneering three-toneme analysis based on SMA Ticuna data collected from 1984 onwards). A tenfold tonological contrast in segmentally –or at least structurally– identical syllables is typologically uncommon. A number of East and South (famously Cantonese) are sometimes said to feature an inventory of 9 or more “tonemes”. In these languages however, all “tonemes” are usually not compatible with the same syllabic structure, so that strictly speaking no 9- or-more-fold tonological contrast may ever obtain (on Cantonese, see Bauer & Benedict, 1997). Kam, a Tai-Kadai language, and possibly some Hmongic languages, are the sole probable exceptions I have been able to find to this scheme so far (Tang, 2008:87; Yang & Edmondson, 2008:514). On the other hand, depending on how they are analyzed, a number of languages from a few subgroups of the Oto- Manguean family can be described as allowing such manyfold tonological contrasts in structurally identical syllables (such as Palantla Chinantec and Xochistlahuaca Amuzgo; see Merrifield & Edmondson, 1999, Bauernschmidt, 1965:473-474). Typological parallels between the phonology of Ticuna and that of some Oto-Manguean languages are indeed striking. But even more noticeable than Ticuna tonology’s typological oddity is its areal situation. Though not in the rest of South America, tones are a common feature in the Western Amazon (Hyman, 2010), which makes Ticuna being tonal little surprising. However, no South American language has been described to date as having more than “two contrastive tone heights” (Hyman, 2010). Thus Ticuna, by contrasting up to 10 tonemes in the same environment, is not only different, but highly different from all other as far as its tonology is concerned. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1 Creaky-voiced “tonemes”, although they have a phonation trait as their major distinctive feature, pattern phonologically with the other tonemes into a single contrasting phonational-tonological paradigm, phonetically heterogeneous but functionally homogeneous. This is why I call them tonemes, which is what I call the units they immediately contrast with. ! ! APPENDIX ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

! The development of tense remoteness in Aikanã grammar

Joshua Birchall (Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi, Belém), Hein van der Voort (Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi, Belém)

This presentation discusses the tense system of the isolate Aikanã language of the Brazilian state of Rondônia. The Aikanã language is highly agglutinating and displays a wide variety of suffixes related to the marking of tense, mood, modality and aspect, which has been partially described by Vasconcelos (2002) and van der Voort (2013, 2014, 2016). We draw on an extensive corpus of transcribed Aikanã narratives and conversations to show how the tense system interacts with other grammatical categories such as aspect, mood and person marking. The primary future/non-future split in the tense system of Aikanã includes a grammaticalized remoteness distinction only in the future, which goes against the typological universal proposed in Dahl (1984) that languages have more remoteness distinctions in the past than in the future. Aikanã future constructions make an anomalous impression, since they at times show a mismatch between the person value of the argument and the value that is indexed, as in example (2), or are inflected twice for person, with the first inflection being in the first person, as in (3). The only way to explain these phenomen a is through a quotative reading, which appears toa belso at play in the expression of tense and mood in various languages of the region since a diachronic pathway between reported speech and future marking is also attested in the nearby Chapacuran languages (Everett 2008, Birchall to appear). We argue here that the future remoteness distinction may have arisen through the reanalysis of an originally hortative/optative mood marker -re as an imminent future marker in a direct speech quotation construction, which explains certain person marking phenomena in the language, such as the unexpected use of first person subject inflection in (2) and (3). Besides the immediate future tense marker -re, there are modality suffixes that may have arisen in the same way, such as the desiderative -mãiryu in (5). Even though they require a direct speech construction, neither -re nor -mãiryu were ever attested as predicate final mood markers like the declarative -ẽ, interrogative -i or imperative -ʔẽ. A similar situation is encountered in the neighboring isolate language Kwaza, where desiderative and purposive modalities require a direct speech construction, as if they once were real mood markers (van der Voort 2004). We will show through text frequency and internal reconstruction that the double person inflected future construction in Aikanã originated through reanalysis of a hortative/optative mood as imminent future (involving -re). The construction was then extended analogically into the remote future domain (involving -ta), where it still shows variability in its requirement of the double person inflection. Probably, -ta was originally the sole future tense morpheme in Aikanã. This study contributes to the description of an aspect of Aikanã grammar that has so far not been accounted for in previous work. Müller (2016) shows tense remoteness to be especially prevalent in western Amazonia and the Andean foothills, and as such, this study helps to describe not only another case of this phenomenon in the region, but also outlines a historical scenario for how the typologically rare future remoteness distinction developed in Aikanã grammar.

Josefina Bittar (University of New Mexico)

According to Bybee, Perkins, and Pagliuca (1994), verbs that express mental or physical ability grammaticalize into abilitative, root possibility, and permission morphemes. An example of this grammaticalization process is the verb can, which meant ‘know’ in earlier English (Bybee 1988:255). In its grammaticalization process, can underwent the following stages: First, it implied (1) “mental enabling conditions in the agent”; then, its meaning extended to (2) “enabling conditions in the agent” and, finally, it indicated (3) “enabling conditions” (Bybee 1988:255). Grammaticalization processes like these also involve morphosyntactic and phonological changes, like loss of inflections and phonological reduction (Croft 2003:253). In this paper, I explore the grammaticalization process of ‘know’ in seven of the forty-eight Tupi- Guarani languages, and I propose a grammaticalization ranking based on semantic, phonological, and morphological evidence. The explored languages are Kamayura, Paraguayan Guarani, Tapiete, Kukama, Tapirape, Asurini and Guaja. The selection was based on data availability, and equal representation of languages per subgroup, according to Cabral and Rodrigues’s (2001) classification.

Semantically, Tupi-Guarani languages have grammaticalized the verb ‘know’ to encode agent- oriented modality. On one hand, five of these languages —Paraguayan Guarani, Tapirape, Kamayura, Kukama and Tapieté— have reached the second stage proposed by Bybee (1988): abilitative modality. However, two of them —Kukama and Tapieté— also show stage (1), mental ability, uses of the verb ‘know’. On the other hand, Asurini and Guaja, have not yet reached stage (2) and only use ‘know’ to denote mental ability (stage (1)).

Phonologically, ‘know’ is more grammaticalized in Paraguayan Guarani and Tapirape than in other languages, mainly because these languages have made the once ‘full’ verb a suffix. Next in the grammaticalization ranking is Guaja: this language alternates suffixation and periphrasis to encode ability. Kamayura and Asurini, Kukama and Tapiete only use periphrasis to encode ability, which places them lower in the grammaticalization ranking.

Morphosyntactically, ‘know’ has lost its inflections in four of the seven languages: Paraguayan Guarani, Tapirape, Guaja, and Tapiete, showing a high degree of grammaticalization. Kamayura and Asurini abilitative ‘know’ indexes the subject, but the main verb in the construction does not take inflections. In Kukama, no verb indexes the subject, thus, it cannot be said that there was a special loss of inflection for ‘know’.

Even though more diachronic data is needed to study grammaticalization processes in Tupi- Guarani languages, exploring synchronic data among languages of the same family can shed light on the different stages of the emergence of their grammar. In the case of the grammaticalization of ‘know’ in Tupi-Guarani languages, synchronic evidence shows that Paraguayan Guarani and Tapirape are further ahead in the process, when considering all the domains (semantic, phonological, and morphosyntactical), followed by Guaja, and then by Kamayura, Asurini, Kokama-Kokamilla, and Tapiete.

Tinigua es una lengua asilada cuyos hablantes alguna vez habitaron la franja inter andes-amazonas, hacia el centro-sur de Colombia. Hoy, con un último hablante, Tinigua es una lengua en un crítico estado de vulnerabilidad. En la literatura disponible, la lengua, y las prácticas culturales de este grupo, han recibido muy poca documentación y mínima descripcion.́

Desde finales del año 2016 hemos empezado un proyecto de documentación y descripción de la lengua Tinigua, y una documentación de las prácticas culturales y las estructuras sociales de este grupo étnico, a través del trabajo con su último hablante, Sixto Muñoz, y conversaciones con otros individuos de la región que tuvieron relaciones con los miembros de este grupo que se fue diezmando en los últimos 60 años.

Para esta charla tenemos dos propósitos. Por un lado queremos presentar resultados preliminares del análisis lingűístico del sistema de sonidos y algunos aspectos de la morfosintaxis de Tinigua, particularmente señalando aquellas características que parecieran ser maś típicas de las lenguas andinas (por ejemplo, la presencia de sonidos retroflejos, y la casi ausencia de clasificadores nominales), y aquellas que parecieran ser más típicas de lenguas del noroeste amazónico (por ejemplo, sistema de 5 vocales, proclíticos, posesión marcada en el dependiente). Por otro lado, pretendemos explorar aquellas prácticas culturales que nos ayuden a informar sobre un pasado de contacto con otros grupos del piedemonte andino. Específicamente, nos proponemos discutir cuáles son las prácticas particulares que revelan un intenso contacto de Tinigua con grupos andinos (por ejemplo, prácticas rituales), y cuáles revelan relaciones con grupos amazónicos (por ejemplo, otras prácticas culturales como de comida y de celebraciones familiares). Esto último constituye un reto, dadas las dificultades metodológicas que representan el trabajo con un único narrador, quien, por demás, esta ́ al rededor de los 90 años, la escasa literatura de la cuál se dispone, y la trayectoria de vida de este último hablante. Simbolismo sonoro en la lengua y cantar sikuani

Johnatan E. Bonilla (Instituto Caro y Cuervo)

En el léxico de la lengua sikuani se encuentran construcciones nominales y verbales que guardan relación con sonidos de la naturaleza. La relación sonido -unidad léxica no se limita a lo onomatopéyico ya que en la ritualidad, expresada mediante la palabra (liweisi) y el canto (waji), se evidencian conexiones con el candelario ecológico (saber ecosistémico), fórmulas de sanación o protección (saber medicinal-espiritual) o mecanismos de mantenimiento y transmisión de la ley de origen (saber oral). A partir de esto, la presente ponencia expone la manera en que los nombres y acciones de aves, peces y animales terrestres se integran en la lengua y, por lo tanto, en los saberes de la comunidad como representaciones activas del performance cultural y de la identidad del pueblo sikuani. Los materiales de la ponencia hacen parte de la investigación y publicación “De agua, viento y verdor 2. Paisajes sonoros, cantos y relatos indígenas para niños y niñas” realizada en las comunidades Caño Negro de departamento del Guaviare y Corosito y el Olvido en el Meta. A first analysis of Tense-Aspect constructions in Yawarana (Cariban)

Natalia Cáceres Arandia (University of Oregon), Spike Gildea (University of Oregon)

This talk provides a first description of the tense-aspect system of Yawarana (yar), a Cariban language spoken in Amazonas State in . There are wordlists from several early explorers, an undergraduate thesis grammar sketch (Colina Amaro 1991), and a brief sketch of alignment patterns (Mattei Muller 2005), but until now, nothing has been published about the tense-aspect system. In 2015, the local indigenous organization identified 32 remaining speakers, all bilingual in Spanish and all 50 or older (3 since deceased); in our documentation project, we have been able to work with 13 of these. Our data come from analysis of recordings of various genres, including narratives, procedural, and conversations, plus from bilingual elicitation (Spanish-Yawarana). The inflectional morphology of Yawarana is relatively simple in comparison with nearby , with many fewer person prefixes, fewer inflectional suffixes, and no splits in alignment; in compensation, syntactic collocations with auxiliaries, clitics, and particles play a larger role in creating tense-aspect distinctions. Main clause verbs in Yawarana have a single suffix slot for inflectional tense-aspect morphology, the same slot that holds all category-changing derivational morphology. The inventory of inflectional suffixes in this slot includes (apparently) pure tense suffixes, such as -se ‘PAST’ (1), -sarö ‘IMMINENT FUTURE’ (2), and -tojpano ‘FUTURE’ (3), (apparently) pure aspect suffixes, such as -sapö ‘PERFECT’ (4), and -rï ‘IMPERFECTIVE’ (5), plus one suffix, -jpö ‘PERF2/DIST.PAST’ (6) that appears to belong to both semantic categories. All of these suffixes are identical to synchronic nominalizers (-sapö, -rï, -jpö), adverbializers (-se, -sarö), or combinations that include a nominalizer (-tojpano). Additional tense-aspect information may be expressed by adding an inflected form of the copular auxiliary to one of these inflected forms (7) or adding the particle =pano ‘CONCLUSIVE’ (identical to the particle that marks deceased participants) to -se and -sapö (also perhaps the origin of the final two syllables of -tojpano) In addition to providing a first description of the tense-aspect morphology, we will also illustrate problems encountered in determining whether a given form primarily encodes tense or aspect. Crucial to answering this question is an examination of how the meaning of a given tense- aspect suffix combines with the inherent lexical aspect (especially telic vs. states) of different verbs: e.g., a simple past tense suffix may have a perfective reading with telic verbs but an imperfective (gnomic) reading with states, or a simple perfective suffix may have a completive reading with telic verbs, but an inchoative/inceptive reading with atelic verbs. We will show examples where these criteria fail to clarify the semantic values of TA suffixes in Yawarana. Examples

Thiago Costa Chacon (University of Brasilia), Matthew Gordon (University of California, Santa Barbara), Larissa Timo (University of Brasilia)

In this talk we analyze the phonological organization of stress and tone patterns in Kubeo, an Eastern Tukanoan language from Northwest Amazonia. We propose an account where tone and stress are analyzed as distinct word-level prosodic properties in the underlying and surface forms of Kubeo words, but yet show remarkable points of interactions. The way both systems interact is attributed to different phonetic constraints, but ultimately to the role of metrical structure in motivating tone and stress patterns. Kubeo has lexically contrastive stress interacting with contrastive tones (H vs. HL). The primary stressed syllable usually falls on the second syllable of the word, but some lexical items have stress on the first syllable. Primary stress is manifested primarily by duration and vowel quality and through its role as the docking site for the H tone in the word. Tone spreading occurs up to one foot to the right of the primary stress location (cf. patterns in (1)). A closer look at the domain of tone spreading reveals the colon, a constituent consisting canonically of two feet, as the relevant structure to account for surface tone patterns. We propose that underlying tones are linked to foot heads within the leftmost colon of a word; any intervening syllable between two feet heads will present transition tone melodies: rising if the first and second foot heads are linked to an H tone, and falling if the first foot head is associated to an H tone and the second foot head is linked to an L tone (cf. examples in (2)). To the right of the colon, syllables have no underlying tones and may present L or H tone depending on factors of secondary stress and sentence prosody. The rhythmic structure in Kubeo word-level prosody can also be observed in the manifestation of secondary stress. Although less consistent than tone spreading, and subject to inter-speaker variation, secondary stress can be observed as an alternating pattern rightwards from the location of the primary stress. In (3) we show that, for the speech of one speaker in our corpus, secondary stress is manifested by longer duration of the syllable in the second foot head of a word. While there is a clear pattern of isomorphism between stress and tone patterns attributed to the role of metrical structure, there is a fundamental difference between both regarding their prosodic domain. First, tone spreading is restricted to two feet, but the rhythmic alternation of secondary stress goes beyond that. Second, while the domain for tone spreading may encompass two roots in a compound, the domain for stress is restricted to a word consisting of a single root. Yet, different kinds of bound morphemes have distinct properties regarding their behavior according to stress or tone phenomena. In addition, we also explore how the patterns of tone and stress conspire to enhance some key acoustic properties of each system (e.g. H tone unstressed syllables are relatively longer than L tone unstressed syllables).

Cláudio André Couto (UNICAMP; NEI-UFPE)

Este é um trabalho descritivo sobre o aspecto habitual e o aspecto prospectivo na língua Saynáwa (“Brazilian Yaminawa” em Fleck 2013), e a relação desses aspectos com o tempo e a negação. O Saynáwa integra a família Pano (Couto 2010, 2015) e é falado por 7 índios Saynáwa/Jamináwa, que vivem no sudoeste da Amazônia, no Brasil (município de Cruzeiro do Sul, estado do ). A pesquisa partiu de dados próprios, coletados em 8 meses de pesquisa de campo, e teve por marco teórico o funcionalismo, em uma perspectiva tipológica (Comrie 1976, 1985, Bybee et al 1994, Miestamo 2005), bem como se alicerçou nos estudos em semântica linguística de Frawley (1992). No Saynáwa, aspecto é uma categoria flexional do verbo. Aspecto é aqui compreendido como as diferentes formas de se ver a constituição temporal interna de uma situação (Comrie 1976: 3). Através do aspecto habitual, a situação é vista como característica de um extenso período de tempo. Já através do aspecto prospectivo, a situação é percebida como iminente, destacando-se a fase que precede a situação, quando as condições necessárias para sua ocorrência já são perceptíveis (Comrie 1976, Frawley 1992, Bybee et al 1994). O que há em comum entre o aspecto habitual e o prospectivo no Saynáwa, é que ambos apresentam mais de uma marca morfológica a depender do tempo (Comrie 1985) e da negação (Frawley 1992), e em ambos os casos não se tratam de morfemas portmanteau. O aspecto habitual é marcado pelos sufixos -pau, que delimita o habitual passado (ex. 1); -mis, o habitual não-passado (exs. 2-3); e -s, o habitual não-passado negativo (ex. 4). O aspecto prospectivo é marcado pelos sufixos -këa, que delimita o prospectivo passado (ex. 5); -tis, o prospectivo não-passado (ex. 6); e -ri, o prospectivo negativo (ex. 7). Tanto os morfemas de aspecto habitual, quanto os de prospectivo, não têm como sentido primário a localização no tempo, eles apenas concordam com a marca temporal, distinguindo-se em passado vs. não-passado. Os morfemas aspectuais habitual e prospectivo também não têm como sentido primário a negação, mas aqui há uma distinção entre eles. Sobre o aspecto habitual, os morfemas de aspecto habitual não- passado (-mis, -s) concordam com o escopo da negação (Frawley 1992), empregando-se -mis quando a negação for do predicado verbal (ex. 3), e -s quando a negação for do aspecto habitual não-passado (ex. 4). Ressalte-se que o morfema -mis também ocorre em afirmações (ex. 2). Sobre o aspecto prospectivo, há uma assimetria na marcação da categoria gramatical na negação (Miestamo 2005), pois os morfemas identificados na afirmação (-këa ex. 5; -tis ex. 6) não são os mesmos da negação (-ri ex. 7), e a concordância tempo passado (-këa) vs. não-passado (-tis), marcada na afirmação, é neutralizada na negação (-ri). Destaca-se também que o sentido “ainda não” (ex. 7) decorre da interação entre o morfema de aspecto prospectivo negativo -ri e a negação do predicado verbal (Frawley 1992). Esta descrição é relevante porque não é comum entre as línguas naturais a existência de morfemas gramaticais que delimitem o aspecto habitual no tempo passado e no não-passado (Bybee et al 1994), bem como, salvo engano, não se tem notícia de uma língua Pano que apresente mais de um morfema de aspecto prospectivo. Já a análise sobre o sentido “ainda não” (Frawley 1992), insere-se na discussão sobre a existência de um tempo (Comrie 1985) ou de um aspecto (perfeito) “ainda não” (Heine 1993), discussão esta que se restringiu às línguas Bantu.

The emergence of aspectual system from grammaticalization of nouns – a case study on Nheengatú

Aline da Cruz (Universidade Federal de Goias)

Languages of the Tupi-Guarani branch of the Tupian family are often used in the literature to exemplify the possibility of nouns to be combined with nominal aspect (more traditionally analyzed as ‘nominal tense’, cf. Tonhauser 2007 for a discussion on the competing analyses). Evidence from Tupinambá (Rodrigues 2010; Cruz 2016, Meira p.c.) and from Nheengatú (Cruz 2016) indicate that aspectual nominal marks originally were nouns, roughly translated as *kue ‘run-down version (of an entity)’ and *rã ‘prospective version (of an entity)’ in Proto-Tupi-Guarani (PTG). These nouns have been grammaticalized in the different languages of the family as nominal suffixes with aspectual functions (cf., for instance, Nordlinger e Sadler (2008) on Guarani), however it was kept as nouns in Tupinambá. In this paper, we focus on the development of the forms kuera, from PTG *kue, and rama, from PTG *rã, in Nheengatú, the language that descends from Tupinambá and has largely been used as língua geral since the 17th century. In Nheengatú, it is still possible to find spontaneous utterances in which the word kuera, , the cognate of the so-called nominal past in other Tupi- Guarani languages, occurs as a free word, with syntactical proprieties of nouns, as illustrated in (1). The use of kuera as a noun is a conservative feature of Nheengatú, since in Tupinambá its cognate, pwer ~ kwer, was also a noun. In the majority of its occurrences, the noun kuera occurs in genitive constructions to indicate that an entity has lost its main properties, as illustrated in (2) and (3). Besides its use as a noun, the word kuera has been grammaticalized as a particle whose function is to express perfect aspect, which “signals that the situation occurs prior to reference time and is relevant to the situation at the reference time” (Bybee, Perkins e Pagliuca 1994, 51). As a perfect marker, kuera can be combined with nominal predicates, such as in (3), and with verbal predicates, such as in (4). Note that in example (3), kuera can be interpreted both as a noun and as an aspectual marker. This ambiguity is an indication on how the grammaticalization process from a noun to an aspectual marker took place. On contrast, the form rã, the cognate of the so-called nominal future in other Tupi-Guarani languages, has been grammaticalized as a subordinator, with a prospective aspectual connotation. As illustrated in (5) and (6), rã can be combined with both nominal and verbal predicates, respectively. Combined with yepe ‘frustrative’, rã is used to indicate counterfactual, as in (7). The analysis of the grammaticalization of the forms kuera and rã in Nheengatú give us an opportunity to investigate the emergence of aspectual distinctions on both nominal and verbal predicates.

Christiane Cunha de Oliveira (Universidade Federal de Goiás, Núcleo de Tipologia Linguística/CNPq), Flávia de Castro Alves (Universidade de Brasília, Núcleo de Tipologia Linguística/CNPq)

Languages from the Northern branch of the Jê family share a construction involving the light verb o/to in combination with position or movement verbs, the inventory of which may vary in size, depending on the language. In all, mostly SOV, languages, o/to displays the same distributional pattern: it follows a nominal and precedes a verb. This paper will focus on the verbal construction characterized by the structure [N o/to V], where N is a non-finite predicate and V is a verb of movement or position. Such construction describes an event that happens as the participant is actually in movement or in a certain position (1.a, 2.b), but it may also encode the imperfective aspect (2.a, 3). Castro Alves (2015) analyses the structure [to V] as consisting of auxiliary verbs, whereas Oliveira (2005) suggests an analysis in terms of verb serialization. For the purposes of this discussion, we shall call this a multiverb construction, since it involves at least three verbs at a time. The goal of this investigation is, first, to describe the functionality and semantics of this construction in two Northern Jê languages: Canela and Apinaje. These neighboring languages are located at the upper course of the Tocantins river, in Brazil; the former is spoken in southern Maranhão State, and the latter in northern Tocantins State. In order to delimit the range of data to be compared, the grammatical properties of each language are considered. Both Apinaje and Canela display ergativity, but in different ways: while ergativity in Canela is governed by distinctions of Tense (1), in Apinaje, it is limited to the context of subordination (2.a). In both languages, the morpheme o/to is identified as the verb ‘do’ and as the morphological causative marker, as well as the instrumental postposition (4). Apinaje allows for a larger inventory of movement and position verbs to be combined with o than Canela, which appears to favor the occurrence of mõ ‘go’ at a higher frequency rate than any other movement or position verb, yielding the [N to mõ] construction, which encodes progressive aspect. In Apinaje, the wider variety of verbs to occur in multiverb aspectual constructions has to do with the semantics of the non-finite verb (5). The second goal of this discussion is to ponder whether this structure is best analyzed in terms of main verb-auxiliary verb or as a case of serialization – or even if one analysis could account for the data of both languages at all. Finally, we aim at identifying the criteria – shared and specific – offered by the grammar of these languages for distinguishing between the various contexts of use, and thus comprehend the grammaticalization path that leads from the expression of adverbial to aspectual information.

LA EXPRESIÓN DE LAS CATEGORÍAS DE ASPECTO Y TIEMPO EN NASA YUWE Esteban Díaz Montenegro (Laboratoire Dynamique du Langage – DDL, Université Lumière Lyon II; GELPS, Universidad del Cauca, Colombia) La expresión de las categorías de aspecto y tiempo en nasa yuwe (antes páez, ISO: pbb, lengua no clasificada del suroccidente de Colombia) implica una compleja interacción entre la alternancia de raíces verbales (perfectivas versus imperfectivas) (Bickel & Nichols, 2007, pág. 183), sufijos de aspecto gramatical, clíticos de pasado (remoto/reciente) y clíticos/sufijos de sujeto.

En una cláusula simple, en los verbos clase I (VI), la raíz toma la forma extendida para IPFV, mientras que la no extendida para PFV. En los verbos clase II (VII), se usa la forma no extendida para IPFV, mientras que la extendida para PFV (ver ejemplos 1 y 2). En nasa yuwe se distingue además, en 3SG/PL, entre estados (EST) y situaciones dinámicas (DIN). Esta distinción - común en lenguas con sistemas de tiempo, aspecto y modo (c.f. (Dahl, 1985) (Timberlake, 2007)) - se expresa a través de las marcas de sujeto así: -aˀ ‘3SG.REAL.EST’, -ta ‘3PL.REAL.EST’, =k(u) ‘3SG.REAL.DIN’ y =tʲ(i) ‘3PL.REAL.DIN’ (ver ejemplos 1 y 2).

Adicionalmente, dos distinciones de aspecto gramatical son morfológicamente marcadas por sufijos: -ʦ ‘PROGRESIVO’ y -jaˀp ‘PROSPECTIVO’. Los morfemas de PROG y PROS son selectivos respecto a la raíz a la que se sufijan (IPFV ‰ PROG y PFV ‰ PROS) y a las marcas de sujeto que toman (EST para PROG como para PROS). No obstante, estas selecciones no parecen ser semánticamente motivadas, sino más bien sintácticamente fijas (ver ejemplos 3, 4 y 5). Por otro lado, las marcas de pasado remoto (=ku) y reciente (=ki), son clíticos que pueden no estar unidos a la raíz del verbo principal de la cláusula (ver ejemplos 6 y 8). Estos clíticos no son selectivos respecto al tipo de raíz que pueden tomar pero sí lo son respecto las marcas de sujeto (sólo DIN). Estas selecciones, de nuevo, parecen no ser semánticamente motivadas (ver ejemplos 6, 7 y 8). El sistema resultante de todos estos procesos involucra: diferentes tipos morfológicos (alternancia de raíces, sufijos, clíticos) y diferentes niveles de condicionamiento (escogencia de raíces y de sufijos/clíticos). Así, la expresión del tiempo y el aspecto se realiza a través de un complejo sistema en el cual los valores semánticos de cada construcción dependen tanto del valor de cada morfema como de sus restricciones sintácticas (ver TABLA 1). En esta charla, ilustraré los condicionamientos específicos de los elementos de cada una de las construcciones, los procesos morfofonológicos que sufren y propondré, para cada caso, hipótesis acerca de su origen diacrónico. Esta investigación está basada en datos de primera mano principalmente de habla espontánea recogidos entre los años 2012 y 2017 con hablantes bilingües nasa yuwe/castellano.

3 La conjuración de la Madre: Traducción y géneros verbales en murui-muina (uitoto)

Juan Alvaro Echeverri (Universidad Nacional de Colombia Sede Amazonia) Anastasia Candre fue una escritora, pintora y bailarina ocaina-murui de la Amazonia colombiana que falleció en 2014. Esta ponencia aborda la traducción de un texto inédito suyo en el dialecto mɨnɨka (mini1256, hto) de la lengua murui-muina (uitoto, huitoto, witoto), que consideramos como una de sus obras poéticas mejor logradas. Sin embargo, etiquetar este texto como un “poema” es inexacto. El texto de Anastasia pertenece al género verbal jɨɨra (conjuración), es decir, se trata de un texto performativo. El texto en lengua mɨnɨka que Anastasia dejó estaba bastante bien trabajado, pero su propia versión en español estaba todavía en proceso, dado que se trata de un texto de difícil traducción. En esta ponencia presentamos el texto uitoto, la traducción de Anastasia y ensayamos una traducción alternativa como una manea de acercarnos al sentido de esta pieza. Sin embargo, para apreciarlo cabalmente es necesario ubicarlo en el contexto de la trayectoria personal y artística de Anastasia y de su relación con sus padres, con los alimentos y plantas cultivadas y su investigación sobre el ritual de frutas. En la primera parte de la ponencia hacemos un breve resumen de la trayectoria personal de Anastasia, su relación con los alimentos y su trabajo sobre el ritual de frutas y la génesis de este texto; y en la segunda presentamos el texto y su traducción y discutimos algunos asuntos lingüísticos, sociolingüísticos culturales involucrados en su traducción.

Patience Epps (University of Texas at Austin)

Tone is widely relevant in northwest Amazonian languages, suggesting an areal component in its emergence. However, our understanding of tonal systems in these languages is both synchronically and diachronically limited. This paper considers the status of tone in the Naduhupan language family and the puzzle it presents for reconstruction. The Naduhupan family consists of four languages, of which the most likely subgrouping is represented in Fig. 1 (Epps & Bolaños 2017; Martins 2005). As represented in Table 1, Nadëb has contrastive length; Dâw has both contrastive tone and marginally contrastive length (with a rising and falling contour contrast on long vowels and atonal short vowels); and Hup and Yuhup have contrastive tone, which patterns in almost mirror-image fashion in the two languages. Regular correspondences exist among these values in the respective languages. At the same time, preliminary fieldwork on Nadëb suggests that non-contrastive pitch contours are realized on long vowels in this language, while a marginal, non-contrastive lengthening corresponds to contour tones in Hup and Yuhup. The question of whether tone or length should be reconstructed to Proto-Nadahup presents a set of challenges: First, since Hup, Yuhup, and Dâw probably form a subgroup, the family has only two primary branches, one of which prioritizes tone, the other length. Second, Hup and Yuhup are in contact with East Tukanoan languages, which have contrastive tone but no vowel length; Nadëb is in contact with , which tend to have contrastive vowel length but no tone; Dâw has had contact with both. Finally, typological studies of tone and vowel length indicate that while these two features are widely associated, change from one to the other can go either way, with no particular directional preference (Gordon 2001; Lehnert-LeHouillier 2013). While prior proposals have argued that tone should be reconstructed to Proto- Naduhup (Martins 2005; Barboza 2016), a new look at the phonetic correlates of tone and length in these languages suggests that it is actually length that was contrastive in the protolanguage. As I argue here, long vowels would have taken on a non-contrastive rising and falling contour, depending on coda voicing, as currently attested in Nadëb. Dâw then phonologized this tonal contrast on long vowels, while maintaining an atonal value associated with short vowels. Hup and Yuhup lost contrastive length and phonologized a contour tone on all erstwhile long vowels, with Hup selecting the rising value and Yuhup the falling one; the former short values then became high and rising, respectively, and the resulting contours were marginally lengthened. The length > tone change in these languages was probably motivated by contact with the tonal Tukanoan languages of the Vaupés, but Nadëb may also have been influenced by the presence of phonemic length in neighboring Arawakan languages. The reconstruction of Naduhupan tone is important both for our understanding of the processes of language contact and change that have gone on in this region, and for a broader typology of tonogenesis.

Patience Epps (University of Texas at Austin), Pedro Lolli (Universidade de São Paulo), Danilo Paiva Ramos (Universidade Federal de Bahia)

The role of discourse as a vehicle for language contact is clearly evident in Amazonia (Beier et al. 2002), and perhaps particularly so in the northwest Amazonian Vaupés region, where closely similar songs, stories, and other discourse forms are shared among many different language groups. Shamanic incantation appears to be heavily involved in this discursive circulation, no doubt facilitated by the social importance of shamans and other ritual specialists (Hugh-Jones 1996, Epps 2016). Although this genre is still vastly under-documented and poorly understood, the limited material that exists on incantation among Tukanoan (Reichel-Dolmatoff 1976, Buchillet 1992), Arawakan (Hill 1993), and Naduhupan (Lolli 2010, Ramos 2013, Ramos & Epps forthcoming) groups suggests that close parallels of poetic and thematic structure exist across the region. A closer investigation of these parallels promises intriguing insights into the dynamics of multilingual and multicultural interaction and influence over time, particularly in relation to ritual practice. In this paper, we compare parallel incantations documented among the Hup and Yuhup peoples of the Rio Tiquié that relate to childbirth (exemplified by the Hup fragment in Fig 1). We offer a textual analysis of two comparable incantation texts in these languages, and identify the major stylistic and thematic features that characterize them. Our analysis explores questions of structure, with reference to the major sections and subsections demarcated by parallelism in the texts; stylistic reliance on particular grammatical resources, such as verbs and affixes that encode movement and index the shaman’s metaphysical travels; and the central role of metaphor in detailing the shaman’s actions, as seen in the invocation of mammals with large pelvic bones to assist in childbirth (Fig. 1). We also consider questions of delivery and performance, including intonation, melodic and rhythmic properties, intensity, and timbre. While our primary focus is the comparison of Hup and Yuhup incantation from the perspective of these two texts, we also contextualize them in the existing documentation of incantation in northwest Amazonia more widely. A particular point of comparison is offered by Hill’s (1993) in-depth analysis of childbirth incantation among the Arawakan Wakuenai of southern Venezuela, which he describes as a musically grounded process of ‘heaping up the names’ and ‘searching for the names’ of spiritually relevant entities (i.e. involving their listing and verbal manipulation). Though very limited, the existing literature on Tukanoan incantation and some brief recorded texts from a Dâw rememberer (Epps fieldnotes) offer additional perspectives on incantation within the wider region.

Natalia Eraso Keller (Investigadora independiente)

La lengua tanimuka (tucano oriental) es hablada por unas 500 personas de los grupos tanimuka y letuama que habitan entre los ríos Mirití y Apaporis en la Amazonía colombiana. Es una lengua tonal, con dos tonos alto (A) y bajo (B). El patrón tonal de los verbos es bisilábico. Aunque la lengua no admite palabras monosílabas, fenómeno corriente en las demás lenguas de la misma familia tucano oriental (Stenzel 2007:363), existen raíces verbales monosilábicas. La aparición de una silaba epentética -ri, permite tener bases bisilábicas con raíces monosilábicas1. Esta presentación propone una descripción detallada de la aplicación de los patrones tonales bisilábicos en las raíces monosilábicas. Este fenómeno se expone en la gramática de Strom, pero está bajo estudio (1992:15)2. Para reconocer si un verbo es de base monosílaba se tienen los siguientes elementos: -la aparición de la silaba epentética –ri- -una diferente manifestación de la nasalidad -una diferente realización del imperativo

En relación a las bases verbales, estas asocian una melodía tonal distintiva, cuyos patrones tonales son (AB) alto-bajo (AA) alto-alto y (BA) bajo-alto, como puede observarse con el siguiente par mínimo:

1) a. AB ~háà-ɾíká [hã́ã̀-ɾíká] ‘mambear’ b. AA ~háá-ɾíká [hã́ã́-ɾíká] ‘matar’ c. BA ~hàá-ɾíká [hã̀ã́-ɾíká] ‘empacar’

Los tres morfemas verbales son idénticos en cuanto a su forma segmental, pero asocian cada uno una melodía tonal distinta. Estas melodías tonales aparecen también en bases monosílabas a las cuales se afija –ri-, como se ilustra a continuación:

2) a. AB ~hí-ɾì-ɾíká ‘pelear’ b. AA ~hí-ɾí-ɾíká ‘morir, secarse’ c. BA bà-ɾí-ɾíká ‘nadar’

La hipótesis que se plantea es que la base verbal (C)V + ri, forma una estructura que puede asociar las mismas melodías tonales que se encuentran en las bases bisilábicas; la función de -ri- es servir de soporte tonal para recibir el segundo tono (o tono flotante) de la melodía (Eraso 2015). Como puede observarse en el cuadro (1), las tres melodías AB, AA y BA se despliegan tanto en las bases bisílabas, ilustradas en el ejemplo (1) como en las bases monosílabas (C)V + ri, ilustradas en el ejemplo (2).

1 Esta silaba aparece sufijada tanto a raíces verbales monosilábicas como a ciertos morfemas monosílabos, pero en esta presentación nos enfocamos solamente en los verbos. 2“The rules for assigning stress in the verb phrase are still under study. Part of the pattern involves the epenthetic syllable –ri which can be stressed or unstressed and is epenthesized in order to conform to one or more rules of the stressed pattern”(Strom 1992:15). Melodía A. Base verbal B. Base verbal C. Base verbal tonal bisílaba monosílaba + ri monosílaba+-ju a -~háà-ɾíká -~hí-ɾì-ɾíká -~hí-ɟù

BA B A A B A A B A Cuadro N°1 asociación de la melodía tonal a bases verbales bisilábicas y monosilábicas

La asociación del tono a una sílaba epentética o a otra sílaba, tiene un condicionamiento. Las raíces verbales sufijan morfemas temporo-aspectuales, de tono fijo o átonos. La aparición de la epéntesis depende de la posibilidad de propagación o de bloqueo del tono. Si los morfemas tienen un tono fijo, caso de –rika (ejs.1, 2), estos bloquean la propagación tonal, y aparece la sílaba epentética para recibir el tono flotante (2 a-c). No se necesita de epéntesis cuando se sufijan a la raíz verbal morfemas átonos, caso de -ɟu glosado como ‘presente’ (4 a-c), pues la melodía puede propagarse sobre este morfema; el tono flotante se asocia a la sílaba átona.

Stephanie Farmer, Ellis Davenport, Connor Miller, Caroline Norfleet, Marisa Peredo, Carolyn Siegman, Giancarlo Sierra (all Macalester College) A Proposal for Proto-Tukanoan Stress

Reconstructions of Proto-Tukanoan (Waltz and Wheeler (1970), Malone (1986), Chacon (2014)) have not thoroughly addressed prosodic phenomena. We seek to fill this gap by providing a preliminary account of Proto-Tukanoan lexical stress. We focus on Proto-Tukanoan roots of the shape (C)VCV, which we argue were lexically specified for either initial or final stress. Our claim stems from the fact that modern tone patterns in Maihɨɨ ki, a Western Tukanoan (WT) language, correspond neatly with the distribution of medial consonant voicing contrasts in certain Eastern Tukanoan (ET) languages, suggesting that the phenomenon that conditioned both was present in their common ancestor, Proto-Tukanoan. Maihɨɨɨ ki contrasts three tone patterns on roots: LL, HH, and HL. LL tone is found on roots that are reconstructed to contain /ʔ / in Proto-Tukanoan (Wheeler 1992). HH tone corresponds with the presence of voiceless medial consonants in all other Tukanoan languages, and HL tone corresponds with the presence of voiced medial consonants in Desano and Siriano. In Chacon’s reconstruction of Proto-Tukanoan consonants (2014), differences in the voicing status of medial consonant reflexes in Desano and Siriano are attributed to different consonant series: plain voiceless (*p, *t, *k, *s) and geminate (*tt, *kk). We find, however, that these series do not line up with the Maihɨɨ ki tone data, as shown in Table (1) below. We propose instead to collapse the geminate and plain voiceless consonant series, attributing the differences in their reflexes to stress. More specifically, we propose that Maihɨɨ ki HL tone is a reflex of Proto-Tukanoan initial stress, and that medial consonants lenited at the onsets of unstressed syllables in Desano and Siriano.

*k ~hiko ~pigu ~pigu ‘tail’ *ˈCVkV Table 1: Correspondence of Maihɨɨ ki tone patterns with Eastern Tukanoan medial segment voicing.

We corroborate our account of Proto-Tukanoan stress with evidence from the distribution of laryngealization in the language family, arguing that /ʔ / arose in ET (but not WT) roots in the context of a stressed syllable beginning with a consonant from Chacon’s proposed laryngealized series (2014). We also examine evidence of a stress-based nominalization process, for instance in the words for ‘excrement’ and ‘defecate’ (Siona ɨ ta, ~gɨ da; Tuyuka kɨ ta, k ɨ na; gɨ da, gɨ na). Finally, we propose that Western Tukanoan pluractionality alternations (e.g. Maihɨɨ ki nágù‘step once’ vs. nàgù ‘step multiple times’) show remnants of a productive stress-based morphophonological process. These phenomena are not explained by current segmental reconstructions of Proto-Tukanoan. In addition to providing novel insights on the correspondence between WT tone patterns and ET segments, our account has important implications for the study of the diachrony and co- evolution of tone and stress systems, especially as regards the role of glottal features that may be secondary articulations of stress.

Thomas Daniel Finbow (Universidade de São Paulo)

This paper addresses the changes in the marking strategies for future time and/or prospective aspect in the Nheengatu of the Rio Negro, the principal surviving variety of the Língua Geral Amazônica. Almost all major nineteenth-century and early twentieth-century descriptions of Nheengatu, e.g., Hartt (1872), Magalhães (1876), Sympson (1876), Tastevin (1910), Stradelli (1926), agree that a so-called “future” reference is indicated by the particle written curi ~ cury ~ kuri. Modern descriptions, e.g., Cruz (2011), Navarro (2011), Floyd (2005), Taylor (1985, 1995, 2007), Casanovas (2000), Grenand & Ferreira (1989), reiterate this use of kuri. Kuri is, however, no longer the primary future/prospective marker in Rio Negro Nheengatu. By far the commonest manner to indicate a prospective or intentional future action in Nheengatu nowadays is with the verb su “go”, employed as an auxiliary, a practice not noted by Moore, Fagundes & Pires (1994) or Rodrigues & Cabral (2011) but discussed synchronically in detail in Cruz (2011). We argue on the basis of an extensive investigation of historical sources and recent fieldwork that the expansion in the use of su as a prospective-future auxiliary is a relatively recent phenomenon, since although su appears often in verb sequences in older texts, the future/prospective meaning is extremely uncommon, even in material from the first half of the twentieth century, p. ex., Rodrigues (1890), Aguiar (1898), Costa (1909), Amorim (1926), Michaele (1951).

La historia compartida andina y amazónica del kichwa hablado en Ecuador

Simeon Floyd (Universidad San Francisco de Quito), Georgia Ennis (University of Michigan)

La mayoría de investigaciones sobre las lenguas Quechuas del Ecuador, conocidas localmente como ‘kichwa’, refleja la posición que la explicación más probable para la existencia de kichwa en la zona amazónica es la difusión desde los Andes durante los periodos incas y coloniales (e.g. Adelaar y Muysken 2004:12-13). Sin embargo, también existen argumentos persistentes que dicen que habría otro origen independiente o anterior (e.g. Stark 1985). Esta presentación considera estas dos propuestas en base de la evidencia existente para demonstrar que el escenario más factible es difusión desde los Andes, en base de una serie de cambios morfológicos en común, específicamente en los sistemas de cambio de referencia, aspecto verbal, y evidencialidad, entre otras áreas (por ejemplo, cambios fonológicos compartidos). Como kichwa serrano y amazónico comparten todos estas innovaciones, un argumento para innovaciones independientes no es sostenible, señalando un probable origen común, como muchos han sugerido. Después de demonstrar este punto, la presentación considerará los posibles escenarios históricos que corresponderían a los datos lingüísticos, en los cuales poblaciones de familias lingüísticas amazónicas como záparo y chicham se adoptarían un kichwa producto de una historia de consolidación lingüística compartida entre la sierra y el oriente.

When Kuikuro women sing Tolo: Poetry in a network of verbal arts between the worlds of humans and hyper-beings

Bruna Franchetto (Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro)

Among the Kuikuro, one of the indigenous groups included in the regional multilingual system known as “Upper Xingu’, in the Amazonian Southern periphery, Tolo is feast, dances and songs, performed exclusively by women. It is an Amerindian musical-vocal art whose characteristics reverberate in many indigenous Amazonian traditions. Tolo songs form a ritual and musical complex in contrast/complementarity with that of the flutes kagutu, a male domain and banned from women, as well as with songs from other 'rituals-festivals' (Jamugikumalu or Itão Kuẽgü, Hyper-Women, and Kuambü) and with the chanted speech of the Hagaka cursings. Tolo are short sung poems, where in place of the name of an itseke ('hyper-being'), called or named by the kagutu flute, is sung the name of a human lover/beloved. They are narrative brushstrokes of events, feelings and passions that permeate the daily life of women (and men). Tolo are, thus, profane musical versions of the kagutu instrumental pieces. In this presentation, the following aspects will be focused on: (i) the inter-semiotic 'translation' between kagutu and tolo; (ii) the parallelistic and recursive structure of the tolo songs; (iii) the 'twisted words' in metaphors and ironies (the multiple meanings of an antinomic and indirect saying to someone); (iii) the process of transcription and translation (challenges and impasses), illustrated by examples from a vast and internally complex repertoire of nearly 400 songs documented since 1981. Tense, aspect, and modality interaction in Mekens

Ana Vilacy Galucio (Museu Paraense Emilio Goeldi/MCTIC)

Verb morphology in is generally associated with person and number marking, valence changing, and aspectual coding (Rodrigues & Cabral, 2012). That is, also, the overall case in Mekens, a language of the Tupari branch of the family, in which verbs show a relatively rich morphology. Verbs and positional auxiliaries are the two lexical categories that inflect for tense and aspect, but only a few tense and aspectual notions are expressed by means of verbal affixes. These are the past suffix /-t/, the remote past suffix /-iat/, and the repetitive suffixe /-ra/, as shown in examples 1-3. Auxiliaries are among the major word classes of Tupian languages, however, the properties and definitions that fall within that category vary significantly from language to language. For instance, Mekens positional auxiliaries have a specific connection with aspectual distinctions in the language that is unusual in the Tupian family: positional auxiliaries are the main operators used to express the progressive and durative aspects in present and past tense clauses, respectively (cf examples 4-5). Besides those few tense and aspect suffixes and the interaction of the positional auxiliary and progressive aspect, the major load of tense, aspect and modal (TAM) distinctions in Mekens is primarily accomplished through the rich system of post-verbal particles found in the language. The category of particles is a closed class of free forms associated with the coding of several grammatical functions, and is one of the nine word classes formally distinguished in Mekens, alongside nouns, verbs, adjectives, pronouns, demonstratives, auxiliaries, postpositions, and adverbs. Galucio (2001) gave a partial list of almost 30 particles subcategorized in five major groups according to their function. The larger group is the one associated with TAM distinctions, and can be divided into two broad subgroups: (epistemic and event) modality, and temporal and aspectual distinctions. This set of particles occurs after the verb, and are part of the verb phrase (cf. examples 6-9). The particles associated with tense are mutually exclusive, as expected, given their semantic scope, but tense and aspect particles may co-occur. In this paper, I will portray the major TAM distinctions coded in main clause in the Mekens language, with special focus to the interaction found among these three notions, such as the connection of modal interpretation to the aspectual and temporal operators.

Spike Gildea (University of Oregon)

Most surveys of which sources give rise to which Tense-Aspect distinctions (e.g. Bybee et al 1994; Heine & Kuteva 2002) list lexical verbs that become grammatical tense, e.g. ‘come’ > ‘NEAR PAST’, ‘go’ > ‘FUTURE’, ‘finish’ > ‘PERFECTIVE’, ‘sit/lie’ > ‘DURATIVE’, etc. However, neither source gives a single example in which a nominalizer is the direct source of any innovative tense or aspect distinction.1 In Amazonia, there are multiple examples of nominalizations that directly become markers of aspect and/or tense on main clause verbs, with no main clause verb (except sometimes a copula) whose lexical value gives rise to a tense-aspect auxiliary. This presentation surveys which kinds of tense-aspect values come from which kinds of nominalizations. Most of the clear reconstructions of these changes are in the Cariban family, for which Gildea (1998, 2012) has reconstructed much of the main clause verbal morphology of modern languages. Innovative T-A distinctions that come from nominalizations are attested (so far) in Akawaio, , Bakairi, Cariña, Ikpéng, Katxuyana, Kuikuro, Makushi, Panare, Pemón, Yawarana, and Ye’kwana. The number in the first column represents the number of languages in which the innovation is attested. 12 *-rɨ ‘ACTION.NZR’ à UNIVERSAL/GENERAL > IMPERFECTIVE > PRESENT > FUTURE 6 *-tɨpɨrɨ ‘PAST.ACTION.NZR’ à PERFECT > PERFECTIVE > PAST 6 *-tjapə ‘ABS.NZR’ à PERFECT / PASSIVE 2 *-topo-pe ‘CIRC.NZR-PRP à PURPOSE > FUTURE 1 *-ne(mï) ‘A.NZR’ à HABITUAL > FUTURE

In 12 Cariban languages, the action nominalizer becomes timeless, then imperfective, present and future. There are no other language families with similar changes. In 6 Cariban languages, the past action nominalizer becomes a perfective, then a past tense; in the Gê language family, the NONFINITE (long) form of the verb has become a perfect in Mebẽgokré (Salanova 2007) and a simple past in Canela (Castro Alves 2004, 2010). In 6 Cariban languages, the absolutive nominalizer becomes a resultative perfect, then an anterior tense; in isolate Trumai (Guirardello 1999), the absolutive nominalizer becomes a focus construction (which does not gain a tense-aspect value). In 2 Cariban languages, the purpose nominalizer becomes future. In 1 Cariban language, the agent nominalizer becomes a habitual, then a future; in Panoan language Matses (Fleck 2003), the agent nominalizer becomes habitual.

While not 100% consistent, the consistency of mapping from particular type of nominalization to specific tense-aspect suffix appears to have a semantic explanation: A nominalizations are about potential or habitual agents, so become habitual or future. P nominalizations (included in absolutive) are about patients (who are already affected by an event), so naturally lead to resultative and then perfect. Action nominalizations are about events in the abstract, hence without a well-defined temporal profile; they become imperfective, which also have a poorly defined temporal profile.

Expresión del aspecto a través de postura asociada y movimiento asociado en namtrik (familia barbacoa suroccidente colombiano)

Geny Gonzales Castaño (Laboratoire Dynamique du Langage – DDL, Université Lumière Lyon II; GELPS, Universidad del Cauca, Colombia)

En la variante de namtrik hablada en Totoró (ISO gum: dialecto Guambiano, ttk: dialecto Totoró) los predicados simples no presentan morfología aspectual y su interpretación depende del modo de acción del verbo, actividades son interpretadas como pasado perfectivo (1) y verbos de estado como presente simple (2). Otro tipo de categorías aspectuales son expresadas a través de predicados complejos, formados por uno o más verbos no finitos (VNF) y un verbo finito auxiliar (VF) [(Vnf)VnfVF]. Los VNF reciben los morfemas de prospectivo -tr PROS, los nominalizadores verbales -ik NMZ.SG y -elɨ NMZ.PL o el morfema de aspecto durativo (-ap/-ip/-ɨp) (3-8). La tabla 1 muestra las posibles estructuras morfológicas de los VNF. Los verbos auxiliares (ver tabla 2) contribuyen también con información aspectual al predicado. Aunque la estructura de los predicados complejos ha sido tratada en namtrik (Triviño 1994; Vásquez 1994; Pabón 1989) su sistema aspectual aún no ha sido descrito. El propósito de esta presentación es describir el aspecto en namtrik a partir de las posibilidades combinatorias del sistema, entre VNF y auxiliares, y sus correlatos semánticos, basándose en datos nuevos de primera mano.

También observamos el uso de predicados con movimiento asociado (MA) (Guillaume 2017) para expresar diferentes tipos de aspecto por ejemplo habitual (5) o prospectivo (6). Además de los predicados formados por dos verbos, el sistema del namtrik hace uso de una gran variedad de construcciones formadas por más de dos verbos (7,8) con diferentes configuraciones morfológicas, las cuales no han sido abordadas en estudios precedentes.

Sound-symbolism in narratives: On ideophones and other expressive strategies in Amazonian Kichwa

Karolina Grzech (SOAS, University of London), Nilo Andy, Jacobo Chimbo & Wilma Aguinda

Ideophones are ‘marked words that depict sensory imagery’ (Dingemanse 2011), which stand out from other words in a given language on the basis of their phonological and morphosyntactic properties, as well as the kind of meaning they convey. These depictive, or ‘mimetic’ words are relatively common cross-linguistically (cf. Voeltz & Kilian-Hatz 2001; Dingemanse & Akita 2017), as well as in Amazonian languages (Reiter 2012), including Pastaza Kichwa (Nuckolls 1996). This talk focuses on ideophones and other means of expressing sound-symbolism attested in Tena Kichwa, a dialect of Amazonian Kichwa spoken in the Napo province of Ecuador, and closely related to Pastaza. An example of a Tena Kichwa ideophone in use is given in (1):

(1) Mashti machete, ichilla machete-wa, tias tias tias tias what.is.it machete small machete-INSTR IDEO IDEO IDEO IDEO ‘Whatsitsname….machete, [you have to form the recipient] with little machete tias tias tias tias… (with a series of short, fast blows). KICHB02DIC2011CESARTAPUY 0039

Tena Kichwa ideophones most often describe manner, sound, type of action, direction, speed or characteristics of movement. They ‘stand out’ both prosodically and syntactically from their linguistic context, and co-occur with and other strategies used for ‘mimetic’ purposes, such as special phonation (breathy/creaky voice) or vowel lengthening. These means are used frequently in Kichwa oral narratives, especially those involving dynamic events.

Our discussion of the role ideophones play in oral narrative will be based on a ca. 20h corpus of naturalistic spoken Tena Kichwa, transcribed and translated into Spanish by Kichwa native speakers. The presentation will consist of two parts. In the first one, we will give a brief introduction into the Tena Kichwa documentation project carried out between 2013 and 2017. In particular, we will discuss the considerations behind the creation of the documentary, audio-visual corpus on which we base our analysis of ideophones, and the community involvement in its creation. Following on from that, we will discuss the meanings of some of the most strongly conventionalised sound-symbolic expressions in Tena Kichwa, with special focus on the kind of ‘sensory imagery’ (cf. Nuckolls 1996) these expressions bring into narratives.

As shown in (1), the ideophone tias expresses a complex idea of ‘cutting something with quick, strong blows of a machete’. Since the action that tias refers to is repetitive, the ideophone is reduplicated to reflect its rhythm. Similarly complex images are evoked by other Kichwa ideophones. Situating our analysis within the existing literature of Kichwa narratives (e.g. Uzendoski & Calapucha-Tapuy 2014), we will discuss examples of usage from mythical and personal narratives, and show how they combine with other expressive strategies, and how they incite the hearers to interpret the storyline in a particular way, desired by the speaker.

Poetics meets software: issues with machine translation of Napo Runa wedding songs

Karolina Grzech (SOAS, University of London), Anne Schwarz (Independent)

The Napo Runa are an ethnic group that inhabits Lowland Ecuadorian Amazon along the banks of the Napo River. They speak various dialects of Amazonian Kichwa, which are mutually intelligible, but differ substantially from Highland Ecuadorian Kichwa, mostly on the basis of their lexicon and phonology. The Napo Runa have a rich tradition of verbal art (cf. e.g. Uzendoski & Calapucha-Tapuy 2014), which includes unique styles of storytelling and a wide variety of ceremonial songs performed at different occasions. The speaking styles employed by the Napo Runa in storytelling and singing can differ substantially from the everyday use of language.

In this talk, we explore the stylistic differences between everyday use of language and ritual speech and the issues they raise for translation, in particular for machine-mediated translation. The point of departure for our discussion are Napo Runa wedding songs. They are traditionally performed by a virsaru - singer and drummer who improvises the song, and is accompanied by a violinist (for more details on the symbolism of Napo Runa weddings, see Uzendoski 2005: ch. 3). The wedding songs have a characteristic rhythm, in which each verse consists of 3 units of 4 syllables and a final 3-syllable unit. In this genre, both the and the pragmatically-motivated morphological marking are conditioned by the rhythm. A preliminary study based on a 13h corpus of Kichwa discourse has shown that the enclitic =ga, associated with topicality/presupposed information (cf. Grzech 2016a), occurs on verbal hosts (particularly on 1SG) much more frequently in wedding songs than in other genres. Moreover, in wedding songs =ga is much more prone to occur several times within the same clause than it is in any other genre, and it also co-occurs with epistemic authority enclitics =mi/=ma, in a combination judged as ungrammatical in any other context. The emphatic enclitic =ri also patterns differently in wedding songs. It is more frequent there than in everyday discourse, and these songs are the only genre in which it was attested on adverbial hosts (Grzech 2016b: ch. 3). The use of both these enclitics in a wedding song is exemplified in (1) below.

This talk focuses on the issues that the unusual word order and clitic distribution in wedding songs causes for their translation into Spanish. We focus in particular on machine translation, relating our experience of creating a parallel corpus of Amazonian Kichwa and Spanish with the use of SDL Trados Studio software. The software detects strings of words which have previously been translated and automatically offers their translation into the target language - in this case, Spanish. Weddings songs are a good source material for machine translation, as they offer a lot of repetitions and frequent collocations. On the other hand, the more liberal use of discourse enclitics in this genre, as well as a specific rhythm, poses a challenge to the researchers overseeing the translation process. The use of enclitics has implication for the information structure within the text, so decisions need to be made as to how - and whether - these alterations are to be reflected in translation. The same applies to the rhythm, as the researcher needs to decide whether it is more important to reflect the stylistic features of this specific genre, or whether to focus chiefly on reflecting its meaning. We discuss and justify the choices we’ve made in both these respects.

Kaleidoscope of negation marking in the languages of the Eastern foothills: Towards some patterns and their explanations

Olga Krasnoukhova & Johan van der Auwera (University of Antwerp)

In research on negation, the eastern part of South America, which roughly corresponds to the Andean sphere, stands outs for a number of reasons. We know from large typological studies that the South American continent as such can be regarded as a macro-area with a predominance of postverbal single negation strategy (Dryer 2013, Vossen 2016). Not only the strong tendency for postverbal negation that is prominent here, but also the morphologically bound nature of negation markers: predominantly suffixing as opposed to negation by free elements. It is not unlikely that structural characteristics of a verbal predicate (i.e. mainly agglutinative and, on average, highly synthetic, with a strong tendency towards suffixation and prefixation only marginally - cf. Doris Payne 1990: 214-215, inter alia) play a role in developing and maintaining such a pattern. While postverbal single negation strategy is found in related and unrelated languages all across South America (Vossen 2016: 266), the eastern part of the continent is an area where languages with the preverbal strategy, as well as the double negation strategy, are concentrated (see also Vossen 2016: 261). There is little doubt that the double-marking Quechuan and Aymaran languages, spoken in this area, are responsible for this overall effect; however, many languages from smaller language families found in the Andean foothills similarly have the preverbal and the double marking strategy (e.g. Zaparoan, Candoshi-Shapra, Peba-Yagua, Muniche, to mention just a few). Curiously, some related languages (for example, the Zaparoan languages Iquito, Arabella and Zaparo- Abishira, and the Cahuapanan languages Jebero and Shawi) do not share the form of the negation markers within their respective family, nor do they share a negation pattern. This may be indicative of developments, either diachronic or contact-related, which are more recent, and pertain to individual languages rather than to a family. On the other hand, we have cases like the Chicham family, with its two postverbal negative markers -tsu and -tʃa/sh/cha shared across the family (see Overall 2007: 324, 481 for Aguaruna, Fast & Fast 1981:23, 68, 93 for Ashuar-Shiwiar, Peña 2015:637 for Huambisa, and Saad 2014:94-95 for Shuar). In all the , these negative markers occur close to the verb root and are followed by other verbal morphology; thus suggesting that they are well-integrated in the verbal complex and constitute older structures. However, these negative markers are very similar to the ones in Ecuadorian and Amazonian Quechua varieties suggesting that these may be borrowings (Saad 2014:95-96, referring to Floyd p.c. and Adelaar with Muysken 2004: 443). Interestingly, in this case we only have the forms and not the pattern that has been borrowed, since the negative markers in the Quechua varieties occur on the verb-periphery (see Pineda- Bernuy 2014), rather than close to the verb root. Another example is Urarina (isolate), which marks standard verbal negation by means of suffixes (-ene/-a/-e/-i, cf. Olawsky 2006: 484). However, Urarina has two constructions for emphatic negation, which involve an additional negative element placed in front of the verb. One of these negative emphasizers is the form kwatia, related to the prohibitive marker kwa (Olawsky 2006: 556, 559). First, the form kwa and kwatia are intriguingly similar to preverbal standard negation element taykwa and the prohibitive –akwa in the Zaparoan Zaparo-Abishira (data from Peeke 1962: 130, 213 and Moya 2007: 198, 174). Second, the emergence of the preverbal negative strategy (currently used for emphasis) in the first place could have been prompted by languages in the area with a preverbal negation (for example, Zaparoan, or to the neighboring Kokama-Kokamilla (Tupí- Guarani). This paper pinpoints a number of such cases and offers a discussion of possible developments taking place in the languages of the area in focus.

Magdalena Lemus Serrano (Université Lyon 2/CNRS)

The goal of this paper is to offer a detailed account of verbal prosody in Yukuna (North- Amazonian Arawak). Arawak languages show a great diversity with regards to their prosodic systems (Wetzels and Meira 2010). Languages from the North-Amazonian branch are often described as having a “pitch-accent” system (Aikhenvald 2003), namely, a system in which “…pitch is the primary correlate of prominence and there are significant constraints on the pitch patterns for words...” (Bybee, Chakraborti, and Scheibman 1998, 277). This description also applies to Yukuna. However, previous studies (Schauer and Schauer 1972; Lemus Serrano 2016) had failed to grasp the role of pitch in the prosody of the language, and proposed an analysis in terms of a stress system. Robayo (2016) was the first to point out the tonal aspects of the language, but his study was based on a small fraction of the paradigm of verbal roots. This paper aims at providing an in-depth description of the word-level prosody of the language, on the basis of a first-hand corpus of approximately 60 paradigms of verbal roots, each including about 30 different forms. Each target word was recorded three times, in non-final position within a frame sentence. The recordings were made with one female speaker, using a Zoom H4N and a Shure Beta 53 Omnidirectional Condenser Headworn Microphone.

The major findings revealed by this data are that: a. Surface tonal patterns are made up of four different tones: L, M, H, HL (falling); b. There is at least one H peak within the word (*#LL#), each peak possibly containing several adjacent H moras; c. L tone is not obligatory, as there can be words with only H (#HH#); d. Once the pitch drops, it can rise again, but always below the height of the preceding H peak (Figure 1); e. The position of H peaks is largely unpredictable and variable, as a single verbal root can display several surface tonal patterns throughout its paradigm (Table 1); f. According to the tonal variations they display, roots can be grouped together in five distinct lexical classes; and lastly, g. The surface realization of most affixes depends on the lexical class of the root they attach to. Each claim will be illustrated with support from both sound files and spectrograms.

After describing the detail of the surface tonal patterns attested, we will conclude by discussing the possible analyses of Yukuna’s underlying prosodic system, and by comparing the features of this system to the tonal and the stress prototypes, following Hyman (2009). In doing so, this paper will contribute to the general knowledge on the typology of word- prosodic systems in the Arawak family, and more generally, in Amazonian languages.

Berlin: Walter de Gruyter. A categorização das referências na língua Guajá e na “língua” dos Karawara Marina Magalhães (Universidade de Brasília), Uirá Garcia (Universidade Federal de São Paulo)

A categorização consiste em um processo de cognição por meio do qual é possível apreender e conhecer tanto o universo físico exterior como o universo psicológico interior do ser humano, ao passo em que permite que o organismo reduza a variação ilimitada que existe no mundo a proporções neurologicamente controláveis. A categorização linguística, então, pode ser entendida como “o modo em que a matéria-prima ontológica torna-se matéria simbólica. E nesse processo, cada língua e cada cultura vai deixar a marca de sua visão de mundo” (Regúnaga 2012:13). Os Awa Guajá, povo indígena que vive no noroeste do estado do Maranhão, afirmam que os karawara, um certo tipo de humanos que habita outra dimensão (iwa “céu”: o mundo para onde vão os que já morreram), têm outra língua (amõa i’ihã “a língua/fala é outra”). Segundo os Awa Guajá, conforme relata Garcia (2011), uma das diferenças entre os karawara e os awa é o fato de os primeiros falarem uma língua diferente. Por exemplo, enquanto a palavra para "humanos" na língua Guajá é awa, na língua celeste é karawara. De acordo com os Awa Guajá, a tradução para karawara é simplesmente “humano”, porém em outra língua, uma língua falada pelos awa que estão no céu, e lá, no falar deles, sua autodenominação é karawara. A língua dos karawara, uma vez operada pelos humanos, é um meio de cura de doentes, além de ser ela que conecta os diferentes mundos, universos diferenciados muito enfatizados pela cosmologia Awa Guajá. Garcia (op.cit.) resume o falar dos karawara como a linguagem do xamanismo, pensando-o como um conjunto de procedimentos de cura e conexões de mundos sensíveis: vivos e mortos, céu e terra. Por meio da análise dos cantos dos karawara é possível afirmar que a “outra língua” da qual falam os Awa Guajá trata-se de uma variante do Guajá, que se diferencia por conter itens lexicais diferentes das variantes presentes na fala corrente das aldeias. Os morfemas gramaticais e a ordem de palavras se mantêm as mesmas nas duas variantes. Há, no entanto, o uso de morfemas lexicais distintos (ao invés de wari para ‘guariba’, usa-se tawamỹ; ao invés de ’u para ‘comer’, usa-se me’e, por exemplo) na denominação das referências e eventos/ações. Além disso, a denominação para ‘mata’, na fala dos karawara é um Sintagma Nominal (SN) complexo que descreve o referente literalmente como ‘a primeira folha de árvore’.Outros itens lexicais da variante Awa Guajá também são substituídos na fala dos Karawara por expressões desse tipo: PORTUGUÊS GUAJÁ KARAWARA anta tapi’ira ma’amija ramãj onça pintada jawaruhua ma'amija rawỹ pini ̃ papa-mel hajrara ma’amija rawỹ rawarara tamanduá tamanawã ma’amija rawỹ rawarara Assim, a denominação para ‘anta’ é tapi’ira em guajá, mas ma’amija ramãj em karawara, um SN complexo que significa “caça grande”. A denominação para ‘onça’ é jawaruhua em guajá, mas ma’amija rawỹ pini ̃ em karawara, um outro SN complexo que significa “caça com aparência de pintada”. Considerando-se que as diferentes línguas fazem a distinção e codificação da realidade com base em suas unidades lexicais, sua organização sintática e suas categorias gramaticais e, ainda, considerando, de acordo com Bybee e Moder (1983: 267), que falantes de uma língua natural formam categorizações de objetos linguísticos da mesma maneira em que eles formam categorizações de objetos culturais e naturais, entendemos ser possível que diferentes variantes de uma língua retratem a categorização das referências de maneira distinta. Um exemplo dessa diferente classificação do universo entre as duas variantes é a denominação dos animais “tamanduá” como tamanawã e “papa- mel” como hajrara em guajá, mas apenas por meio do SN ma’amija rawỹ rawarara, na variante dos karawara, indicando a ausência de distinção entre esses dois referentes nessa última variante. Desta maneira, pretendemos apresentar, nesta comunicação, uma análise da diferença entre as variantes guajá e karawara, enfocando a categorização das referências e a distinta classificação do mundo associada a cada uma delas, além de explicar a correlação entre esses mundos por meio da cosmologia do canto.

Cristina Messineo (Universidad de Buenos Aires y CONICET)

El trabajo analiza dos géneros del arte verbal toba (qom): el consejo (nqataGak) y la rogativa (natamnaGak), con especial foco los recursos lingüísticos que expresan emoción (Besnier, 1990 y 1995). El nqataGak es la principal herramienta verbal de socialización niños y jóvenes, a la vez que se utiliza como método de persuasión política y religiosa en contextos de contacto (Messineo, 2009 y 2014; Dante y Cúneo, 2017). El natamnaGak es un tipo de discurso ritual circunscripto a las actividades de subsistencia y a la curación chamánica (Messineo, 2014; Cúneo y Messineo, 2015) y suele intercalarse, en su versión recontextualizada, en las prédicas cristianas actuales (Dante y Cúneo, 2017). Ambos géneros se caracterizan por su estilo afectivo y por su relevancia en la expresión y la construcción de relaciones sociales y significados culturales en la medida en que reflejan y constituyen relaciones asimétricas entre el ejecutante y el receptor o audiencia. Mientras que el consejo es un discurso de autoridad pronunciado por un emisor de mayor rango generacional o social, la rogativa es un discurso de humildad, en el que el emisor se somete a la voluntad del receptor (una entidad no humana), en una actitud de imploración y humildad. En ambos casos, la clave (Hymes, 1972) es íntima y afectiva. En el marco de los estudios sobre etnopoética y performance (Briggs, 1988, Bauman y Briggs, 1990, entre otros), el trabajo presta especial atención a los recursos lingüísticos y poéticos que expresan emoción en los géneros seleccionados. Se trata de recursos propios de estilos altamente implicativos (high –involment style en términos de Chafe, 1985), y en los que la emoción1 juega un rol crucial en tanto permite movilizar a la audiencia/ destinatario para cambiar un estado de cosas. En el nivel del léxico, los términos de parentesco, los pronombres personales, y las formas diminutivas de los demostrativos son algunos de los recursos utilizados. En el nivel sintáctico, las oraciones fragmentadas, la estructuras paratácticas, las oraciones condicionales y la negación “suave” constituyen estrategias propias de los géneros estudiados. Por último, la prosodia y el paralelismo se asocian también al estilo afectivo del consejo y de la rogativa qom. Las características mencionadas, a la vez que funcionan como claves de ejecución (Bauman, 1975), dan cuenta de la función del arte verbal en la construcción y reproducción de las relaciones sociales y del rol de los mayores en la transmisión y continuidad de la lengua y la cultura qom. El trabajo se propone contribuir al estudio del arte verbal de los pueblos indígenas del Gran Chaco mediante una aproximación que integre los rasgos lingüísticos con la dimensión etnográfica de fenómeno estudiado. Asimismo pretende ser un aporte a la etnografía chaqueña, en especial, al estudio de las emociones como parte de la concepción qom de persona (Cf. Tola, 2012).

1 Desde esta perspectiva, la emoción no se concibe como un fenómeno individual, sino como un proceso cultural e interpersonal; el significado emocional es predominantemente cultural y variable (Wierzbicka, 1986; Lutz , 1988) REFERENCIAS

Hacia una teoría de direccionales como aspectos espaciales

Lev Michael (University of California, Berkeley)

El objetivo de esta charla es argumentar que los direccionales y los morfemas de movimiento asociado (associated motion) en algunos idiomas pueden considerarse los análogos espaciotemporales de las categorías aspectuales. Basándome en datos del idioma matsigenka, un idioma arawak de la Amazonía peruana, demuestro que la semántica de los sufijos direccionales en este idioma requiere referencia a dos nociones espaciotemporales: 1) la geometría de la trayectoria de moción (path geometry) y 2) el punto de vista sobre la trayectoria de moción (path viewpoint), y la relación topológica entre ellos. Muestro que estas nociones son análogas a las nociones puramente temporales de tiempo de situación (situation time; TSit), tiempo de tópico (topic time; TT) y las relaciones topológicas entre ellas (aspecto), como se emplearon en la teoría de Klein (1994) de tiempo y aspecto.

Matsigenka tiene once sufijos direccionales verbales y cinco sufijos de movimiento asociados. Los sufijos direccionales proporcionan información sobre las trayectorias de moción vinculados con los verbos de movimiento a que se sufijan, mientras que los sufijos de movimiento asociado proporcionan información sobre las trayectorias vinculados a los eventos de moción asociados a los verbos (sea de moción o no) a que se sufijan. Además, varios de los sufijos 'direccionales' son lábiles, en el sentido de que funcionan como sufijos de movimiento asociado cuando se adjuntan a verbos que no son de movimiento.

En la semántica aspectual kleiniana los aspectos expresan relaciones topológicas de anterioridad, superposición, contención o posterioridad entre: 1) el tiempo del tópico (TT), o sea, el intervalo de tiempo para el cual se afirma una proposición o está 'a la vista', y 2) el tiempo de situación (TSit), o sea, la totalidad temporal de la proposición. De manera correspondiente, los direccionales del matsigenka distinguen entre: 1) la totalidad del evento de movimiento, identificado con la geometría de la trayectoria expresada por un direccional; y 2) la punta de vista sobre la trayectoria, que corresponde a la parte de la trayectoria en que se afirma el predicado de movimiento o está 'a la vista'. La totalidad de la trayectoria es análoga a SitT y la parte de la ruta que está 'a la vista' es análogo a TT. Diferentes direccionales presuponen diferentes geometrías de las trayectorias y diferentes puntos de vista sobre las trayectorias, e indican diferentes relaciones topológicas entre estos dos elementos. Estas relaciones son analogías espaciotemporales a las relaciones aspectuales.

Este marco permite la representación de geometrías de trayectorias complejas, y la identificación precisa de la porción de estas trayectorias para que se afirma el predicado de movimiento. Discuto las técnicas de elicitación para identificar las geometrías de las trayectorias, y para identificar los puntos de vista de las trayectorias expresadas por las direccionales. Muestro que diferentes direccionales pueden tener la misma geometría de trayectoria, difiriendo solo en el punto de vista sobre la trayectoria. Tense and Aspect in Gavião of Rondônia

Denny Moore (Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi, Belém)

Time, aspect, modality, and evidentiality are especially interesting in the Gavião language because of its unusual typological properties, especially its basic clause structure, which has implications for TAME marking. A non-copular clause in Gavião (both matrix and embedded) contains a subject immediately followed by an auxiliary stem, which is then followed by any number of verb phrases or embedded clauses, which can be scrambled in any order (Moore 1984). One of these can be fronted under certain conditions. In these sentences the only finite element is the auxiliary; the verbs are unmarked for TAME categories, in contrast to almost all the indigenous languages of South America (Mueller 2013). Instead, there is a complex system of auxiliaries which mark tense, aspect, mood, direction of motion, and sentence functional type (assertative, imperative, desiderative, etc.) Other modal and temporal indicators occur as sentential particles. There are 15 known elements, almost all particles, which can occur in the first and second positions at the beginning of the sentence. These include modals (e.g. uncertainty, nonassertion) and relative time (e.g. ‘already’). Of the 30 known particles which can occur at the end of the sentence, the first position contains particles of time (e.g. future, recent past) and time- of-evidence (e.g. recent evidence). The second position contains modal particles (e.g. intention, opinion). Eleven sentence functional types are distinguished: assertative, nonassertative, imperative, prohibitive, exhortative, ‘let’, preventative, desiderative, simulfactive, postfactive, and nominal. These sentence functional types contrast in numerous ways: (1) occurrence of auxiliary roots; (2) cooccurrence of auxiliary stem features, such as tense and aspect; (3) cooccurrence of sentence particles with each other and with auxiliary stems; and (4) potential sentence-initial occurrence of auxiliary prefixes (which governs possible fronting). These sentence functional types could be considered modality, but they mostly correspond to speech acts. Copula clauses and auxiliaries can never be imperative, prohibitive, exhortative, or simulfactive and are unmarked for tense, aspect and direction of motion. The assertative, nonsubjective noncopula auxiliary stems show only a contrast between past tense máà and non-past mága, which appear to be relatively recent. However, the rest of the noncopula auxiliary stems contain one or more of three roots: //sá//, //yá//, and //Ø//. Interestingly, these roots do not have fixed tense and aspect. Rather, each sentence functional type determines how many contrasting roots there are and these assume the tense and aspect contrasts that occur there. A clue to the basic difference in aspect between //sá//, //yá// and //Ø// when there are three contrasts is given in the imperatives, of which there are three. The first of these indicates a general command, with no specific point of inception. The second indicates an action to be taken at an indefinite time. The third indicates an action to be taken at a definite time, either immediately or at some understood time. This same aspectual difference, of definite or indefinite time of inception or completion, appears in the past tense of nonassertative auxiliary stems, in which //yá// and //Ø// divide the tense. All three contrasts occur in prohibitives, whose auxiliary stems must be in sentence-initial position, and in nominal auxiliaries and clauses, which are obligatorily nominalized and embedded. Desiderative clauses and auxiliaries show two contrasts, between //sá// and //yá//. Simulfactive clauses have only the auxiliary root //sá//, with the suffix -àt. Clauses of the type ‘let’ have only //yá// and a suffix -àt. Postfactives have only //yá// with a suffix -bóy. Moore, Denny. 1984. Syntax of the language of the Gavião Indians of Rondônia, Brazil.

Aspecto gramatical e suas implicações para marcação pessoal no verbo e alinhamento em Mundurukú (Tupí) Dioney Moreira Gomes (Universidade de Brasília) Esta comunicação pretende apresentar o aspecto verbal em Mundurukú (Tupí). A interdependência entre aspecto, marcação pessoal e alinhamento também será abordada. A sufixação e a reduplicação são as formas gramaticais de expressão do aspecto (GOMES, 2006). Nas formas verbais, o aspecto imperfectivo (IPRF) é expresso pelo sufixo {-m}. O perfectivo (PRF) caracteriza-se, principalmente, pela ausência sistemática desse sufixo e pela presença obrigatória de marcadores proclíticos de sujeito, que não ocorrem no aspecto imperfectivo. São exemplos de perfectivo (1a) e (1b). Neles, ocorrem obrigatoriamente os marcadores de sujeito epe '23' e o' '3'. Já os exemplos (2a-b) mostram que não ocorre marcador clítico de sujeito se o aspecto for imperfectivo. Com ou sem reduplicação da forma verbal, o que caracteriza a imperfectividade é a presença do morfema {-m}. O aspecto imperfectivo, traduzido em português pelo presente contínuo (2b) ou pelo futuro (2a), informa sobre o processo interno do evento, especificamente sobre a sua não-finalização, a sua não-conclusão, tenha ele começado ou não. O morfema {-m} de imperfectividade funde-se com as consoantes finais /k/, /t/ e /p/, resultando em [g], [dn], [bm], representadas na escrita por "g", "n" e "m", respectivamente. Os marcadores clíticos de sujeito são restritos ao aspecto perfectivo, como nos exemplos (2a-b). Já os marcadores de objeto ocorrem tanto com o aspecto perfectivo quanto com o imperfectivo. Enquanto os verbos intransitivos processuais só têm indexação de marca pessoal clítica no aspecto perfectivo, os intransitivos estativos sempre exigem, independentemente do aspecto, a presença dos marcadores pessoais. Uma consequência dessa diferença é a presença obrigatória de pronomes livres com processuais no aspecto imperfectivo, enquanto com estativos o pronome livre apenas ocorre como forma de realçar o participante, uma vez que este é plenamente identificado pelo marcador clítico no verbo. A marcação clítica dessas duas subclasses de verbos em confronto com a marcação clítica dos argumentos dos verbos transitivos mostra dois tipos de alinhamento: um entre sujeito de intransitivos processuais e sujeito de transitivos; e outro entre sujeito de intransitivos estativos e objeto de transitivos. Outra maneira de expressar aspecto em Mundurukú é a reduplicação (GOMES, 2007). A principal e mais frequente função da reduplicação em verbos é indicar a duração de um evento. Sob esse rótulo, agrupamos as noções de progressão e iteração nos termos de Cusic (1981) e Rose (2005). A reduplicação mostra, por exemplo, que um mesmo evento está em processamento e se estende ao longo de um mesmo recorte temporal, sendo, portanto, progressivo, contínuo (exemplos 3a-c). Em outros casos mais evidentes, a reduplicação traz a ideia de que uma ação se repete, não necessariamente em um mesmo evento, mas em momentos distintos, codificando a noção de iteratividade (exemplos 4a-b). Por fim, pretendemos apresentar também quatro outros sufixos verbais que possivelmente expressam aspecto. Vamos reuni-los em dois grupos, a saber: a) {-isu}'recente, recém': esse morfema informa que uma ação acabou de ocorrer (exemplo 5) e b) {-uk} 'habitual' (exemplo 6), {-xi} 'excessivo' (exemplo 7) e {-bu/-pu} 'exclusivo, limitado a' (exemplo 8). Esses três últimos morfemas imprimem ao predicado uma leitura menos finita, uma vez que não podem ocorrer os marcadores clíticos de pessoa, típicos de aspecto perfectivo, nem o sufixo de imperfectividade {-m}.

Pieter Muysken, Radboud University, Nijmegen

Quechua language varieties spread northward into parts of Ecuador, Colombia, and northern Peru and were adopted as a native language by speakers of earlier Pacific, Highland, and Amazonian languages in a process of . This process started in the fifteenth century with the Inca state and is still going on in some regions in the Pie de Monte, where speakers of smaller languages are acquiring Quechua as a second and their ultimately primary language. Thus Quechuan varieties have played and still play a key role in the Pie de Monte multilingual ecologies. The Quechua varieties that spread northward have undergone numerous changes, as is typical in such a situation of non-demic expansion. These changes fall under a number of headings: *Koineization and disappearance of original distinctions present in the contributing Quechua varieties from south and central Peru; *Morphological regularization and paradigm simplification, presumably as the result of second language learning; *Autonomous developments and compensatory strategies to recuperate morphosyntactic and semantic distinctions lost in the simplification process; *Influence from the substrate languages While all four developments are of great interest and crucial to our understanding of the diversification in the Quechua language family, this paper focuses on the substrate languages. It critically reviews the possible influence of these languages on Quechua varieties. The cases discussed include but are not limited to: 1. The possible introduction of diminutive or pejorative suffixes and of the potential marker –ntra into Inga from Kamentsa’. 2. The possible introduction of switch reference in the purposive nominalizations of northern highland Ecuadorian Quichua as a compensatory strategy from earlier Barbacoan (as argued for by Bruil 2008). 3. The development of a desiderative involving the verb ‘say’ in southern highland Ecuadorian Quichua, possibly from earlier Chicham. 4. The development of a intentional marker involving the verb ‘do’ in lowland Ecuadorian, possibly under the influence of Waorani. 5. The reinterpretation and reduction of the Quechua copula ka- as a clitic under the possible influence of Chicham. 6. The creation of a negative existential verb illa-, possibly modeled on Chicham. These and a few other possible changes will be reviewed from the perspective of the work on substrates in creole studies, taking into account the Founder Principle (e.g. Chicham before Barbacoan), the Cafeteria Principle (where when what feature), possible alternative explanations, and multiple reinforcement of substrates (e.g. Chicham + Barbacoan). I will also consider the question of whether these substrate influences have influenced all of Northern Quechua or just a subset.

Bruil, Martine. 2008. Innovations in the Ecuadorian Converb Systems: Grammatical change in language contact situations. MA thesis, Leiden University. Temporal categories in Yaminawa morphology

Kelsey C. Neely (University of California, Berkeley) Yaminawa (ISO 639-3: yaa) has an elaborate set of morphological resources for expressing temporal categories including aspect, temporal remoteness, and the time of day during which an event takes/took place, regardless of temporal remoteness. While some of these morphemes have only temporal semantics, others, such as the switch-reference enclitics, encode both temporal relations and other categories. This talk presents a broad overview of these morphological resources in Yaminawa and then provides a closer look at how temporal remoteness and aspect are employed in natural speech, including conversation. One of the most striking features of Panoan languages are the number of temporal remoteness distinctions they make (see Fleck 2001, 2007 on Matsés, and Tallman and Stout 2018 on Chácobo). The Yaminawa Temporal Distance Markers (following the terminology of Tallman and Stout 2018) distinguish six degrees of remoteness in the past and at least three degrees of remoteness in the future. The inventory of these verbal suffixes is given in Table 1. The morphosyntax of these TDMs is unlike that of either Matsés (which combines evidential categories with tense and allows multiple tense markers on a single predicate) or Chácobo (in which TDMs always co-occur with a true tense marker). In Yaminawa, TDMs do not have an evidential component, they do not require any additional morphology to make a root finite, and they are in complementary distribution with the aspectual and modal suffixes. In practice, Yaminawa speakers use TDMs to establish topic time, then either aspect or modal suffixes are used. Yaminawa does not have tense as an obligatorily realized morphological category. The two most frequent aspects in Yaminawa are the perfective -a and the imperfective -i. In the absence of context from the prior use of a TDM, the perfective has a default interpretation of having occurred earlier on the same day as the utterance time, and the imperfective has either a present or near-future interpretation available. In natural speech with temporal context, the imperfective is frequently used in the past, but the perfective does not occur in speech about the future. Yaminawa speakers sometimes report degree of certainty as a component of meaning of future TDMs, with the imperfective being the most certain and the remote future TDM -daka being the most uncertain. However, the remote future TDM -daka can also be used for events about which speakers have high certainty (such as the bicentennial celebration of Peruvian independence in 2021), showing that the semantics of these morphemes is indeed grounded in temporal distance. Additionally, some modal morphemes, such as the hortative -n , have future semantics in Yaminawa. Another temporal category of typological interest are what I call the Circadian Temporal Markers, which indicate the time of day that an event took place, regardless of the topic time. These include -shid 'at night', -waid 'during the day'/'all day', and -(y)uku 'early in the morning'. These are optional and must be followed by a TRM, aspect, or modal to form a grammatical word. I consider these suffixes 'adverbial' in nature, as they do not have any morphosyntactic or semantic co-occurence restrictions with other temporal morphology, they merely specify time of day. Temporal sequence is also a key component of the switch reference system in Yaminawa, with separate sets of markers being used for prior versus simultaneous events. There are also a small number of enclitics that block switch reference and encode only temporal sequence, such as =ta 'immediately prior event' and =xaki 'lapse of time between events'. In most cases, TRMs and aspect are blocked by these enclitics, and many clauses may be chained, with only a single matrix verb inflected for temporal remoteness or aspect. Table 1: Temporal Distance Markers in Yaminawa Past Future -wa 'last night' -waidaka 'tomorrow, a couple of days from now' (high certainty) -waiyabea 'yesterday, a couple -nũpukui 'weeks or months of days ago' from now' (uncertainty) -ita 'a few days to a few -daka 'years from now' weeks ago' (high uncertainy) -yabea 'a few months ago' -ti 'several months to a year ago' -di 'over a year ago', 'years ago'

Andrey Nikulin (Universidade de Brasília)

Although contrastive stress has been reported for Chiquitano (Macro-Jê family), the particularities of its assignment have remained largely overlooked in the literature (Galeote Tormo 1993:34; Santana 2012:188–191). Krüsi & Krüsi (1978:87) and Sans (2010:110, 2013:11–12) recognize that the stress assignment in Chiquitano is sensitive to the morphological structure of the word and that the regularities that characterize it are more complex for verbs than for nouns. I offer a description of the stress in Migueleño Chiquitano (MCh), an underdescribed moribund variety of Chiquitano spoken in the municipality of San Miguel de Velasco. The data used in the study come from the author’s fieldwork carried out in the community of San Juan de Lomerío. I claim that the position of the word-level stress (whose primary acoustic correlate is an increase in F0) is determined by the accentual properties of the last morpheme within the word, which may activate one of the stress patterns available in MCh: penult, antepenult or word-final. Penult stress is required by most suffixes, including /-xɨ ~ -xi ~ -se/ ‘NRFR.POSS.SG’, /-ka/ ‘PL’, /-ma/ ‘DIM’, /-ka/ ‘SAP.SBJ’, /-ɲɨ/ ‘1SG.OBJ’, /-ta/ ‘3SG.OBJ’, and many roots, such as /-aʔi-/ ‘mouth’, /-ɨkɨki-/ ‘fingernail’, /-tɨ-/ ‘neck’. Antepenult stress pattern is activated by /-Co ~ -Ca/ ‘3.SBJ’ and roots such as /-pope-/ ‘foot’, /-tʃaʔanɨ-/ ‘head/hair’, /oxiɲa/ ‘good’. Word-final stress is infrequent; it is associated with non-nominal morphemes, such as /puɾusuβi/ ‘white’. Mobile accent paradigms illustrate the different accentual properties of the suffixes: /ix-a-patá-ka/ [ɕapaˈtakḁ] ‘I chew’ vs. /β-a-páta-ɾa/ [βaˈpataɾa] ‘she/he chews’, /ix-a-iŋkí-ka/ [ɕai̯ ŋʲˈkʲikʲḁ] ‘I ask’ vs. /m-á-iŋki-jo/ [ˈmai̯ ŋʲkʲijo̥ ] ‘she/he asks’, /i-popé-se/ [coˈpes] ‘her/his foot’ vs. /á-pope/ [ˈapope] ‘thy foot’, etc. If multiple suffixes co-occur, only the rightmost one is relevant for the stress assignment, as shown by /i-i-tasu-ɾó-ɲɨ/ [casuˈɾoɲɨ] ‘she/he calls me’ (cf. /β-a-pátʃe-ɾo/ [βaˈpatʃeɾo̥ ] ‘she/he searches’). I also examine the apheresis of word-initial /i-/. I argue that the process is regular if at least two syllables separate /i-/ from the stressed syllable (/ix-a-tuβaxí-ka/ [ɕatuβaˈxi-kʲḁ] ‘I grind’, /iɲ-i-onokó-ta/ [ɲonoˈkotḁ] ‘I burn it’, /ixanaká-xɨ/ [ɕanaˈkax] ‘root’, /ipakaʔá-xɨ/ [caka̰ ˈax] ‘liver’), common in antepretonic syllables (/ikɨmɨ́-xɨ/ [kʲɨˈmɨ-x] ‘worm’, /ixoú-xɨ/ [ɕoˈu-x] ‘snake’, /ix-a-nó-ka/ [ɕaˈnokḁ] ‘I sleep’, /ix-ɨkɨ́ki/ [ɕɨˈkɨkʲi̥ ] ‘my fingernail’, but /iJ-i-kokó-ta/ [ikʲoˈkotḁ] ‘I obey’) and exceedingly rare in pretonic syllables (/ix-a-á-ka/ [iˈɕakḁ] ‘I eat’, /iJ- tʃá-ka/ [iˈtʃakḁ] ‘I drink’, /iJ-kípoɾɨ/ [iˈkʲicoɾɨ̥ ] ‘my belly’, but /ix-ótu/ [ˈɕotu̥ ] ‘my.♀ tongue’, /iɲ-ótu/ [ˈɲotu̥ ] ‘my.♂ tongue’).

Arts of Love, Sadness, and Empathy in Amazonian Ecuador

Janis Nuckolls (Brigham Young University) & Tod Swanson (Arizona State University)

Our paper identifies an affective stance which we call llakichina ‘(literally) to cause love, sadness, or empathy’. We argue for the role of llakichina in four genres of verbal art that are practiced widely by speakers of two closely related varieties of Amazonian Quichua associated with the Pastaza and Napo headwaters. These two dialects, PQ (Pastaza Quichua) and NQ (Upper Napo Quichua) are classified as Eastern variants of Quechua IIB. Yet, because of years of contact with speakers of unrelated lowland languages such as Chicham and Zaparoan, Amazonian Quichua people have developed verbal art that shares many features and aesthetic values found in these languages. Llakichina is an affective stance that articulates the personal emotions of a speaker who performatively expresses empathy with a nonhuman form of nature. Such performative empathy is evident in varieties of songs, narratives, humorous conversations, and in discourse directed to plants and animals. It is identifiable through formal features of Quichua grammar as well as through performative devices such as figurative language, ideophonic depictions, gesture, intonational foregrounding, and poetic structures of lines. Empathy-inducing songs sung by Quichua women share properties of Chicham anent (cf Taylor 1983, Brown 1986, Harrison 1989.) They are secretive magical songs designed to affect people or animals through their allusive imagery, and are often thematically concerned with a desire to resolve sadness, loneliness, or longing. For example, women often invent and sing songs to birds who are performatively directed by the singer to return to their nests, the way the singer might want her lover to return to her. Narratives of various types create an empathetic frame through grammatical and discourse features which emphasize perspective: the evidential specification of perspectives as ‘self’ -mi, ‘other’ -shi, or ‘unknown -cha’; the careful and elaborate comparisons between human and nonhuman life; the use of speech reports that serve to move the action of a story, while articulating the perspectives of different entities; and performative depictions of sensory and emotional experiences by means of ideophones. Humorous discourse is another genre that depends on analogies intended to foster empathy. For example, a stereotypical form of laughter associated with women, especially with a group of sisters, may be represented with the ideophone hu hu hu huy, and is associated with female bonding. This laughter ideophone is said to be the human version of what russet-backed oropendolas (Psarocolius angustifrons) do when they are said to ‘say’ their own ideophone ku ku pak-chu. This species of bird in particular, is said to embody conviviality and empathy because it builds multiple nests in the same tree, which suggests an ideal of sociability that is achieved when sisters live harmoniously with their homes side by side. Features of empathy may also be found in discourse directed to plants. This is most evident when people express identity relations between themselves and a particular plant for the purpose of harnessing that plant’s medicinal or aesthetic power. There is, for example, a wild variety of genipa americana which is an important resource for beauty, used to make hair grow longer thicker and blacker, and is also used to paint designs on the face and body. It is not enough, however, to simply apply this substance to one’s body. A woman has to join her heart and emotions to the ‘woman’ who is said to be the spirit of the genipa tree, and assert in discourse form, that she ‘is’ this tree, and has the same qualities and abilities as the tree, which is so attractive that it is able to draw a variety of pollinators to itself. The contribution of this paper, then, is that it deepens our knowledge of Amazonian cultural poetics beyond what has thus far been reported in anthropological and linguistic literature on Lowland Amazonian peoples (Overing and Passes 2000.)

Zachary O'Hagan (University of California, Berkeley)

This presentation explores the semantics and pragmatics of the verbal suffix -(a)k in Caquinte (Castillo Ram´ırez 2017; Swift 1988), a Kampa Arawak (Mihas 2017) language of southeastern Peru, based on original fieldwork. Building on the description of cognate suffixes in related lan- guages — as a marker of ‘perfect’ (Payne 1981) or ‘perfective’ aspect (Michael (2008:255-256), Mihas (2015:214-216), Snell (2011:855)) —, I analyze -(a)k as a marker of specificity in the domain of eventualities. As in the nominal domain, in which definites express that a speaker assumes an addressee to have a particular referent in mind and specifics express that a speaker has a particular referent in mind (independent of the mental state of an addressee), specificity in the verbal domain expresses that a speaker has a particular eventuality in mind. In Caquinte, verbs that lack -(a)k (‘bare verbs’) behave similarly to bare nouns in languages that permit them. They are often interpreted as generic (1), or also as progressive (2). (1) Ishekata kepatsi... i- sheka -a kepatsi 3m.s- eat -r:mid dirt He eats dirt... (2) Irogenti najakatsinotiri nochaajanikirite. irogenti no- ajak -tsino -i -ri no- chaajanikiri -te cop:3f 1s- wash -body -r:act -3m.o 1p- child.m -poss I am washing my children. Verbs exhibiting -(a)k are often interpreted as culminated within a topic time (Klein 1994). (3) ...osheki oshinetaka amashaitake. osheki o- shine -ak -a Ø- amashai -ak -i much 3f.s- be.happy -sp -r:mid 3f.s- sing -sp -r:act ...she was very happy and sang [i.e., at my wedding]. However, bare verbs may also be interpreted as culminated (4). (4) Ari ipitsokashitana ikantana... ari i- pitsok -ashi -a -na i- kan -a -na pro 3m.s- turn.around -a:purp -r:mid -1o 3m.s- say -r:mid -1o Then he turned around and said to me... I demonstrate that -(a)k fails tests used to diagnose sorts of viewpoint aspect, contrast it with the referential properties of nouns and nominalized verbs, and review temporal relations and modality in the language generally. Caquinte emerges as a language in which there are few grammaticized categories that order eventualities along a temporal trajectory. Rather, even- tualities are conceptualized in terms of their realization, in the form of reality status (Michael 2014), and their specificity, but only secondarily in terms of strictly temporal relations, in the form of imperfective aspect encoded via suffixal person markers on intransitive verbs (O’Hagan 2015), which alternate with prefixal markers, a sort of fluid intransitivity that is compatible with -(a)k. I show that certain morphosyntactic configurations are underspecified for speci- ficity and aspect, while others encode certain of these values. The result is an analysis in which referential properties in the nominal domain begin to resemble apparently temporal properties in the verbal domain, especially in terms of discreteness. Lastly, this discreteness yields prag- matic effects, whereby specific verbs are conceptualized as part of the main line that may move a narrative forward (Anderson 1991; Payne and Ballena D´avila1983; Payne and Payne 2005).

Sanderson Castro Soares de Oliveira (Universidade Federal do Amazonas, Campus Manaus), Pilar Valenzuela Bismarck (Chapman University)

The Panoan family comprises ca. 32 languages from Peru, Brazil, and Bolivia. Panoan languages grammatically distinguish various degrees of temporal distance from the deictic center; i.e., they possess metrical tense (Chung & Timberlake 1985) or degrees of remoteness distinctions (Comrie 1985, Dahl 1985). This presentation analyzes the complex tense systems found in Panoan, concentrating on morphologically expressed categories. In so doing, it seeks to expand our knowledge of languages with metrical tense and test hypotheses (in Comrie 1985, Dahl 1985, Bybee et alia 1994, Botne 2012) regarding the internal organization of the systems, the ways tense interacts with other grammatical categories, and the possible sources of tense markers. Although metrical tense systems are attested in approximately 25% of the world’s languages (Dahl 2008, Botne 2012:536), those with four or more degress of remoteness are unusual (Comrie 1985:87; Frawley 1992:363). For example, of 222 languages examined in Dahl & Velupillai’s (2011) study on past tense, only 2 have such prolific systems: Chakobo and Yagua; the former belongs to the Panoan family. Discussing the Panoan tense systems is particularly relevant, considering this family is one of the larger clusters of elaborated systems of remoteness distinctions in the world, outside Niger-Congo languages (Dahl, p. c., March 2013). Despite this, Panoan languages are largely absent from older and recent treatments of metrical tense. (Most) Panoan tense systems are asymmetrical, with more distinctions in the past than the future. The further an interval lies from the present, the less precise its cut-off point, and the more extense the temporal space it covers (Frawley 1992). As expected, tense interacts with aspect-modality (in Shipibo-Konibo, -rabɨ marks distant past and imperfective aspect whereas -ʝantan marks distant past and perfective (Valenzuela 2003)) and evidentiality (in Matses, all past tense markers simultaneously code evidentiality (Fleck 2007)). However, tense also interacts with number (in Kashinawa, plural marking is achieved through suffixation of -kan in the immediate past, but -bu in other past tenses), person (in Amawaka, the immediate past marker is -xo when the subject is 3rd person, but -ki with 1st/2nd person subjects), and negation (in Matís, a negated verb cannot take past tense marking directly, but requires an auxiliary to which the past suffix attaches. Also, different negation markers are used with past vs. non-past tenses (Ferreira 2005:147-148)). We adopt a diachronic approach in accounting for some of these interactions. Comparative analysis indicates that Proto-Panoan might have exhibited degrees of temporal remoteness. However, even closely related languages may differ significantly in the categories they encode and/or their formal expression. On the other hand, there is evidence suggesting the borrowing of markers. While some tense morphemes clearly originate from temporal adverbs and adverb-like verbal suffixes, others may have arisen through the grammaticalization of motion verbs and associated-motion verbal suffixes (cf. Bybee et alia 1994). In some instances, the marking of tense diachronically involves nominalized constructions. Finally, markers denoting temporally non-adjacent regions may share the same gram (cf. Botne 2012). (500 words)

EL TEJIDO COMO ESTRUCTURA NARRATIVA DEL RELATO INDÌGENA DEL WAYUUNAIKI

Luis Oquendo (Universidad de Zulia) Los modelos semióticos de análisis sobre las literaturas indígenas conciben al héroe del relato indígena al igual que el héroe decadente de la literatura occidental. Su intención es elaborar una tipología del héroe y metanarraciones. A partir de la siguiente pregunta: ¿Cómo se representa el tejido como estructura narrativa en el relato indígena del wayuunaiki, específicamente en el relato wayuu (Achi’ki) de Jusayù (1986), desde la lectura intercultural en oposición a la lectura del paradigma de la lectura occidental sobre los relatos indígenas? Sigo la metodología expuesta por Oquendo (1987, 1996) quien propuso una lectura intercultural diferencialista de la literatura wayuu concibiendo el relato en wayuunaiki como una “una red de tejido” en oposición a los modelos europocéntricos. Analizaré, Achi’ki relatos guajiros de Miguel Ángel Jusayú. Este texto está formado por veinte y cinco relatos, escrito en wayuunaiki, y luego traducidos al español por el mismo autor. Hay en estos relatos una lectura bicultural del mundo wayuu acompañado de una escritura intercultural del relato, wayuunaiki- español. El wayuu considera el tejido como la unidad donde se fragua la belleza y esta se manifiesta en la figura y en los motivos contrastantes los cuales suelen ser los colores primarios. En este sentido, el tejido como unidad textual-discursiva constituye una red, -kusuu y esta se representa en una red semántica a través de las fraseologías que elaboran el texto del discurso. La red del tejido -kusuu es el texto en –sí, y está estructurada por los siguientes elementos: cordel o cuerdas- shipoo, nudo del tejido- süshoo, hoyos o vacíos del tejido- ishi. Cada uno de estos elementos que dibujan el discursear del relato está enlazados en una relación de contrarios y diferencias. Los nudos de los tejidos - süshoo aparecen a inicio del relato y al final relato. Estos – süshoo, al introductio del relato, exponen una frase diferente al final relato. En los veinticinco relatos de Achi’ki (relatos guajiros) se observan veinte y tres relatos que finalizan con la frase Aját’ta müsü’jaa (Y se acabó esto; Acaba así el relato…) y dos con las frases: Étápaa nia’túnkatatahin…( Y lo encontraron…), Müsü’juku’waipa…(Así fue antiguamente). Los hoyos o vacíos – ishi cuyos referentes son los deiticos y los puntos cardinales: Pala’müin (hacia el norte), u’chumüin (hacia el sur) – wüipumüin (hacia el este), -wopu’müin (hacia el oeste), surgen después de la interjección: Jeh (Pues bien) “… frecuentemente empleada en las narraciones cuando se hace una pausa para ponderar y seguir adelante” Jusayú y Olza (1988:110). Otro constituyente del –kusuu es el tiempo del relato en wayuunaiki que actúa como las vueltas que se le dan al cordel- shipaa del kusuu para templarlo. El tiempo es la “tensión” del relato. El tiempo en el relato wayuunaiki no sólo viene dado por la forma verbal, la cual suele exponerse en pretérito perfecto a través del sufijo-pa que se le añade al inminente y el pretérito imperfecto, estos son los tiempos verbales prominentes en los relatos; aunque en wayuunaiki hay otras marcas enunciativas que indican o señalan la medida del tiempo y es utilizada en el relato. La mayor unidad de tiempo es el año representado a través del lexema juya’ (año y lluvia). El mes a través del lexema kashi’ (luna) wané müinrrapa kai’( apenas transcurrido un día), alikairrua kai’(las tardes). Kai’(día) al cual se le antepone algunas nominalizaciones para señalar distintas etapas del día como:1 Estas nominalizaciones, frases interjeccionales,2-y las formas interrogativas,3 van a ser las figuras retóricas dominantes en el tejido del relato junto a la metáfora y la metonimia. Existe una simetría en las frases referidas del kusuu del relato como los objetos tejidos. 1- yale’tapa kai’ (cuando el sol está levantado), kaléu kai’ (a mediodía) ewéta kai’ (salida del sol). 2- ¡Jáikaliaasa¡(Caramba), Áituayáshirra main taya’la (¡Pobre de mí¡) 3- ¿Kasa’che érra maka’ aka’ tü jamü’kalü?, (¿A qué se parecerá el hambre?)¿ Je’ rráirrüin main juya’ ala’takalü jüchirrüa tia? (¿Quién sabe cuántos años han transcurrido?)

Mythology, Missionaries, and the languages of the Marañón River Basin Simon Overall (Otago University / James Cook University) The western margin of the Amazon basin near the modern-day border between Ecuador and Peru is linguistically diverse, but the indigenous cultures of the area also show notable similarities, due to a long history of contact and mutual influence. The aim of this talk is to enquire into the nature and time depth of contact, taking as a starting point observations made by Beier et al. (2002) and Epps (2015) regarding the importance of discourse practices to an understanding of linguistic contact in the Amazonian context. This adds not only to the research on contact phenomena but can also shed light on as yet unresolved questions regarding possible deep genetic relations among the languages spoken in this area. The geographical area of the Marañon valley and its tributaries, including the Santiago, Morona, and Pastaza Rivers on the left bank and the Cahuapanas and Nieva on the right bank, is home to speakers of Chicham (formerly Jivaroan) languages, the isolate Kandozi- Chapra (also known as Candoshi), and Pastaza Kichwa (Quechuan). Another isolate, Urarina, is spoken to the East and was historically in contact with Kandozi-Chapra and Achuar (Chicham). The Kawapanan language Shawi is spoken on the right bank tributaries of the Marañón. Of these, only Kichwa has linguistic relatives outside of the area, and its relatively recent presence is the result of Andean colonisation and also language shift among originally Chicham speaking populations under the influence of early missionary activity which used Quechua as a . Colonial records attest to other languages that were lost during the era of missions and the rubber boom, especially in the Marañón valley to the west of the modern Chicham speaking area (Adelaar & Muysken 2004: 405). Various hypotheses have been advanced over the years assigning subsets of these languages to proposed genetic groupings but with little supporting evidence. Some conspicuous shared etyma and grammatical patterns, however, require explanation (Wise 2011). Recent research on an important discourse genre of “magic” songs shows that these are described for the Chicham-speaking groups (Overall, forthcoming), Kandozi-Chapra (Surrallés 2009), Urarina (Walker 2013), and are similar to the chants (icaros) used by Kichwa shamans (Brabec 2002). The magic songs often share mythological motifs with traditional stories, some of which share themes across Chicham, Kandozi-Chapra, Urarina, Shawi, and even Arawak. The tradition of oblique reference via metaphor and allusion, and the importance of animal imagery in these discourse genres, is consistent with Epps’ (2015) observation that flora and fauna terminology is disproportionately represented (relative to other parts of the world) in Amazonian loanword repertoires – a phenomenon that Epps also explicitly links to shamanic discourse. With respect to the time depth of contact, there is evidence for missionary influence in mythological themes, and the reducciones of the Maynas mission, as well as SIL/ILV activity, have clearly played an important role in bringing peoples together. The song tradition is closely related to ayahuasca shamanism, which itself may be largely a product of postcolonial social upheaval (Gow 1994). Identifying contact effects that are due to colonising and mission activity is an important first step towards identifying evidence for precolonial contact; and this in turn is a step towards disentangling contact from genetic sources of similarities among languages. This paper presents examples of shared motifs in oral traditions, and evidence for possible colonial influence on them, and then presents some examples of shared lexical and grammatical material. It concludes with an attempt to establish criteria that allow relative dating of the contact phenomena identified. References Adelaar, Willem and Pieter Muysken. 2004. The Languages of the Andes.

Martha Pabon (Universidad de los Andes)

En esta ponencia trataré la relación entre subordinación y nominalización en la variante dialectal de Totoró del idioma namt̮ik. La lengua namt̮ik que incluye la variante dialectal de Guambia ha sido clasificada como perteneciente a la familia lingüística Barbacoa, que abarca un número de lenguas del suroccidente colombiano y noroeste ecuatoriano. Constenla (1991) plantea la configuración del grupo Barbacoa en dos subgrupos: (1) Barbacoa septentrional (suroeste colombiano) compuesto por las lenguas guambiano, totoró y awa-pit; y (2) Barbacoa meridional (noroeste ecuatoriano) con las lenguas cayapa y tsafiki.

La nominalización como estrategia de nominalización es un tema incluido en la agenda de investigación regional andina y suramericana. Van Gijn, Haude y Muysken (van Gijn et al. 2014: 274) plantean que las cláusulas nominalizadas subordinadas son extremadamente comunes en las lenguas suramericanas y que han sido mencionadas repetidamente como un rasgo areal y regional para zonas geográficas de diferentes extensiones. Ellos ponen citan a Dixon y Aikhenvald (1999: 9) quienes dicen que en Amazonas las cláusulas subordinadas típicamente incluyen verbos nominalizados con el tipo de nominalización marcado en el verbo. Mencionan a Crevels y Van der Voort (2008) quienes ven “la subordinación a través de la nominalización” como un rasgo areal en lenguas de Bolivia y Brasil. Van Gijn, Haude y Muysken subrayan que las cláusulas subordinadas también son comunes en el área lingüística andina. Como lo han mostrado Torero (Torero 2002) y Adelaar y Muysken (Adelaar & Muysken, 2004) las lenguas mapudungune, el quechua y el aymara tienen algunos tipos de cláusulas nominalizadas. Daré un ejemplo para ilustrar el papel de la nominalización en la subordinación. En (1), la cláusula principal contiene el verbo “morir”, la cláusula subordinada contiene el verbo “nacer”. El núcleo de la cláusula subordinada es “árbol” que está ubicado en primera posición y está modificado por el verbo “nacer” que porta -wa ‘participio pasado’. Este participio funciona como nominalizador y subordinador de la cláusula.

Ian Packer (UNICAMP)

Nesta comunicação pretendo apresentar alguns dados de minha pesquisa de doutorado sobre os cantos e artes verbais dos índios Krahô – povo indígena falante de uma língua da família Jê, que vive no norte do estado do Tocantins, no Brasil Central – tomando como objeto de análise um exemplar em particular, o Kàjre jarkwa, ou Cantos-fala do Machado. O Kàjre jarkwa é um dos gêneros mais valorizados pelos Krahô e não é por eles percebido e classificado nem como canto (increr), nem tampouco como mito (harẽn xà), mas como um fenômeno intermediário entre esses dois polos: “Nossas grandes palavras” (mẽ icakôc cati). Exemplo, portanto, de fala e/ou mito cantado, ele reelabora, por meio de estruturas melódicas, rítmicas e métricas singulares, temas de uma narrativa mítica em que Hartãt, herói Krahô, guia os índios em uma longa viagem por uma terra desconhecida até o Pé-do-Céu, árvore que dá sustentação à cúpula celeste e que é um “mitema” bastante difundido entre na mitologia ameríndia sul-americana. Ao longo dessa viagem, os Krahô adquiriram não apenas um objeto cerimonial importante, o Machado, como a própria capacidade de ouvir, compreender e traduzir os cantos de todos os seres do mundo, com os quais passaram então a compor sua complexa vida ritual e seus inúmeros gêneros verbo-musicais. O Kàjre jarkwa é executado por dois experientes cantores que, solitários no pátio da aldeia por toda uma noite, alternam-se na “narração” de diferentes passagens dessa viagem: os lugares por onde passaram, os seres que encontraram, os perigos que correram, etc. Ao longo de sua performance, contudo, fazem constantes referências ao próprio ato de narrar/cantar em que estão implicados, criando condições assim pra expressarem no canto também sua situação particular de cantores, assim como episódios de sua própria biografia. Em minha comunicação pretendo analisar algumas das características verbais que, sobretudo no que se refere à reorganização de referências temporais e espaciais, são determinantes pra diferenciação operada pelo Kàjre jarkwa em relação à forma e epistemologia do mito e, consequentemente, pra que seja possível a atualização do passado mítico pelos cantores. The metrical structure of Jivaroan Nampet ‘Drinking songs’

Jaime Peña (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú & Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas) This work presents a first detailed account of the metrical structure of Jivaroan nampet ‘drinking songs’, with special focus on songs from Wampis and Awajun. More particularly, the purpose of this paper is to explore the idea that poetry is an extension and application of everyday language structure (Friedrich 1986) through the study of Jivaroan nampet. It is shown that nampet songs can be considered formally as involving the interaction between general grammar principles of everyday language and particular principles that are not present in everyday language. More interestingly, since many nampet songs are composed for the particular performance, the individual patterns concerning their well-formedness depend on the creativity of the performer rather than on pre-established or learned poetic rules. Jivaroan (or Chicham) languages share at least four traditional song genres: anen ‘magical song’, nampet ‘drinking song’, ujaj ‘war/tsantsa* song’ and shamanic chant (not referred to by any special term). Although Anen have received fairly good attention in the anthropological literature, the other Jivaroan poetic genres have not been deeply studied. Nampet songs are not fixed thematically nor rhythmically, they can be learned but are usually just composed at the moment of performance; in fact, within Jivaroan tradition, nampet is the most versatile genre in terms of rhythm, creativity and thematic variety. The present analysis shows that rhythm for a nampet is set with a line that is made up of pure vocable words (words without any referential content) that vary according to the gender (male/female) of the performer. Usually (but not obligatorily), this is the first line of the song. The combination of vocables sets the metrics and the melody of the song, which is then followed through the end, though subtle variations are permitted. The most basic organization of the nampet is based on syntactic parallelism between couplets. As many other languages, Wampis and Awajun allow for ‘special’ syntactic, lexical and prosodic structures in their poetic traditions. A prime example of this is the treatment of prosody in songs. Vowel-elision in Awajun and Wampis generally obey quite complex and strict rules partially based on a iambic rhythm (Payne 1990, Peña 2015). Thus, when singing, the performer must be aware of both the general stress rules and the song’s own poetic rules. Whenever a song meter may be broken due to vowel elision by general stress rules, the application of such rules is canceled and overruled by the song’s made up poetic structure. That means that quite frequently, general stress rules do not apply or apply only partially in songs. There a number of strategies to keep the poetic structure of the nampet, such as cancelling vowel-elision, vowel-lengthening and use of contentless made-up syllables (vocable suffixes). The poetic structure is based on the mora. Working parallel with the poetic structure is the nampet song’s musical rhythm, based on a binary beat. This study fits within the general study of verbal art (Sherzer 1983), more particularly, it is based on ethnopoetic frameworks in the vein of Hymes (1981) and Bright (1990), among others; and it also pays attention to the theory of metrical stress and prosodic typology (Hayes 1995, Hyman 2007). Data for this paper comes from 18 nampet songs, of different female and male singers. These songs were gathered during fieldwork and also include songs recorded by Wampis and Awajun speakers themselves. The songs belong to a subset of around 4 hours of Wampis and Awajun songs of different genres, in turn a subset of a general text databases involving different registers and text types.

Walkiria Neiva Praça (Universidade de Brasília/UnB)

Além da noção de tempo poder ser expressa por meio de expressões adverbiais tais como ãxe’i ‘ontem’, karẽ, ‘hoje’ em Apyãwa, língua da família Tupí-Guaraní, subgrupo IV (Rodrigues & Cabral, 2002), há apenas duas partículas específicas para exprimir a dêixis temporal, a saber: ra’ẽ ‘passado’ e ne ‘futuro’, (como ilustrado nos exemplos (1) e (2) respectivamente). Diferentemente de outras línguas, segundo Praça (2013), o tempo não é uma categoria gramatical do verbo em Apyãwa. O verbo recebe marcação de pessoa e de alguns tipos de aspecto, mas não de tempo (exemplo (3)). No mais, a marcação de tempo está imbricada com a modalidade epistémica. Isto é, o tempo é secundário e dependente do comprometimento do falante em relação ao que é dito. A fonte de informação em Apyãwa é expressa por um conjunto de partículas de segunda posição que indica o posicionamento do falante perante o conteúdo informacional e, concomitantemente, situa o que está dito no tempo. Ou seja, localiza eventos/ estados temporais em relação anterior ou posterior ao momento da enunciação, situando o evento/estado em um tempo passado ou futuro. Assim, o tempo expresso desempenha um papel de pano de fundo na modalização. O espaço temporal referente ao passado são o passado recente, médio e remoto atestados e não atestados, além da partícula ra’ẽ ‘passado’. A ausência de partículas modalizadoras ou de expressões adverbiais temporais em um enunciado indica que o evento/estado ocorreu em um espaço temporal próximo ao momento da enunciação e por isso não se necessita de referência (exemplo (4). Há dois tipos de futuro, um futuro iminente, partícula ekwe (exemplo (5)), que indica que o falante tem um elevado grau de certeza da efetivação do evento/estado em um futuro imediato, e outro que não vincula confiabilidade da informação, partícula final de sentença, ne ‘futuro’. Por sua vez, a categoria de aspecto é expressa de diferentes maneiras em Apyãwa. No que tange ao verbo, essa categoria pode ser expressa por meio de reduplicação ou por sufixação. A reduplicação expressa basicamente o aspecto inceptivo- durativo e o de intensificação. Os aspectos iminentivo e completivo são expressos por sufixação. Para mais, o aspecto também pode ser marcado por partículas tais como: ranõ ‘iterativo’, we ‘perfeito’. A noção de aspecto cursivo é expressa, em Apyãwa, pelos verbos intransitivos ka ‘estar’, kow ‘estar.dual, kwãw ‘estar.plural’ e pelos verbos posicionais xow ‘estar.deitado/estático’ e ’ỹj ‘estar.sentado/ estático’, pa’ym ‘estar.em.pé/estático’ sufixados pelo subordinador -wo, que além de indicar uma tipo de dependência com a oração matriz, necessariamente exprime correferência entre os sujeitos da oração matriz e da dependente (exemplo (6)). Este trabalho tem por objetivo descrever como a noção de tempo e a categoria de aspecto são expressas na língua Apyãwa, tradicionalmente conhecida por Tapirapé. Língua falada por aproximadamente mil pessoas que residem em duas áreas indígenas no nordeste do -Brasil. Pelo que já se conhece desta língua, verificou-se que a marcação da modalidade epistémica que abarca a noção de tempo, bem como do aspecto têm por escopo todo predicado. O modelo teórico-metodológico que será utilizado neste trabalho é o da Tipologia Funcional. A opção por este modelo justifica-se por ser o modelo que mais bem compreende as línguas naturais como dinâmicas e passíveis de mudanças. Exemplos

Aspectos formais e narrativos da mitologia Apyãwa

Walkiria Neiva Praça (Universidade de Brasília/UnB), Aline da Cruz (Universidade Federal de Goiás - UFG)

Este trabalho tem por objetivo apresentar um estudo preliminar da estrutura dos textos mitológicos do povo Apyãwa, tradicionalmente conhecidos por Tapirapé. Para tanto, analisou-se tanto os aspectos formais quanto os aspectos narrativos, de um conjunto de narrativas míticas, recolhidas entre os falantes desde 1997. Os Apyãwa residem, atualmente, em duas áreas indígenas no nordeste do Mato Grosso, Brasil. Trata-se de um povo Tupí-Guaraní rodeados por grupos Jê. Linguística e socioculturamente apresentam evidências desse contato. Além dos rituais, nos quais há danças, cantos (kã’o) e toda musicalidade, como por exemplo impostação de vozes femininas e gritos ritualísticos, possuem uma mitologia rica e diversificada, que traduz uma compreensão de mundo e de suas origens. Embora a maioria dos adultos conheçam os mitos, estes somente são narrados por anciãos com notoriedade em toda sua sociedade, isto é, além de hierarquia sociocultural esses anciãos são possuidores de grande sabedoria. Vale dizer que os narradores dispostos de sua tecnologia da oralidade, discorrem o texto com vividez e destreza, compondo um quadro descritivo do evento narrado. A narrativa não apresenta preâmbulos introdutórios, uma vez que os ouvintes já têm internalizados seu contexto sociocultural e histórico. Observa- se, por exemplo, que muitos trechos, resgatam a vida cotidiana dos Apyãwa. Por ser internalizada pela maioria dos membros da comunidade, os participantes podem ser inseridos na narrativa in media res, ou seja, as narrativas muitas vezes iniciam-se em pontos cruciais, sem necessidade de explicar todo o contexto – distinguindo-se, por exemplo, da tradução dessas narrativas que precisam recorrer a digressões explicativas para que os ouvintes consigam entender o conteúdo. No que concerne aos aspectos linguísticos, observa-se que os textos são narrados em terceira pessoa e com alguns diálogos diretos. A presença de ideofones é outra característica importante, uma vez que ajudam a compor a sonoplastia, dando dinamicidade ao quadro eventivo. Observa-se ainda que nas narrativas míticas raramente utiliza-se elementos da complexa dêixis da língua Apyãwa. Por outro lado, a utilização das partículas de segunda posição ro’õ e raka’e (como ilustrado em (1)) é uma das características mais marcantes das narrativas míticas. Segundo Praça (2007), são partículas modais que expressam confiabilidade de informação e fonte de informação respectivamente. Raka’e expressa a não-atestação do evento/ estado pelo falante e indica ‘passado remoto’ (exemplo (2)), ao passo que ro’õ e expressa que o conteúdo da informação não é assumido pelo falante e o exonera de qualquer responsabilidade sobre o que foi dito (exemplo (3)). Trata-se de uma partícula muito produtiva nas interações diárias, bem como nos textos míticos. Mesmo parecendo paradoxal que o narrador se exima do conteúdo transmitido, a análise a ser apresentada aponta o oposto, e indica a necessidade do pesquisador em conhecer tanto o plano discursivo quanto o narrativo, bem como a contexto sociocultural no qual está se trabalhando.

Multimodal discourse in a multilingual setting: Conclusions drawn from the interplay of language, gesture and ideophones in the Upper Xingu culture area Sabine Reiter (Universidade Federal do Pará/ DAAD) Verbal arts in Amazonian oral discourse are not fully described without taking into account performative features, such as ideophones, gestures and a specific prosody, that co-occur and interact with language. The observation that ideophones play an important role in oral discourse goes as far back as to Koch-Grünberg (1916) who documented them in his transcriptions of Taulipang and Arekuna narratives; and even earlier Steinen (1894), when reporting on his journey to the headwaters of the , described the use of gestures and ideophones not only in the verbal interaction of the indigenous peoples with outsiders like himself, but also among themselves. Steinen (1894: 71/72) observed that the gestures used during oral performances were identical in the different ethnic and linguistic communities he visited and were sufficiently iconic to permit a basic understanding even to someone who did not have any knowledge of the language. In the multilingual environment of the Upper Xingu even then there was a language policy that kept the languages strictly apart, entitling a person to use only the language(s) of his parents and of the community he was born into. Since the different linguistic groups form a culture area, sharing a common pool of rituals and traditional narratives, one may conclude that gestures then served as a “neutral” means of communication across languages, where nowadays this function has been mostly taken over by Portuguese. Ideophones and gestures most frequently occur at decisive moments in narrative discourse to capture the attention of the audience. Furthermore, they may serve as a memorizing aid for professional storytellers who use them more frequently than other speakers, notably in mythological narratives that can have a duration of up to several hours. They are often uttered simultaneously, depicting different aspects of an event referred to by speech and adding to its overall meaning. Like language, they can also be used with increasing levels of abstraction when repeatedly picturing the same event in a narrative. Where Steinen in the late 19th century observed that ideophones varied from community to community in the Upper Xingu, comparative data from the early 2000s suggest that these elements are on their way to conventionalize throughout the culture area. This is surprising in view of the fact that Upper Xinguan people to date adhere to their language policy, not showing any code-mixing with other languages of the area in their individual speech, even though most of them are bilinguals to some extent. However, ideophones, defined as “marked words that depict sensory perceptions” (Dingemanse 2011: 25), differ from other words in a language not only in terms of their marked properties on different levels of linguistic description, but also with respect to their synchronic and diachronic behaviour. There is cross-linguistic evidence that ideophones are uttered less consciously, and thus may be kept where a speaker has switched to a different language (cf. Mithun´s 1982 observation on in contact with English, or Reiter 2012 on the pair Awetí - Kamaiurá). This suggests that ideophones are the lexical items that first cross language-boundaries in this culture area, and thus would also give further support to the results of the analysis presented by Chang & Michael (2014), according to which the languages of the Upper Xingu are in a process of convergence with regard to their phonological structure. Awetí audio and video data as well as data drawn from the literature on other Upper Xinguan languages will be presented in this talk in order to illustrate observations and support hypotheses outlined here.

An evaluation of discourse organization theory in Pastaza Kichwa switch-reference Alexander Rice – University of Alberta Switch-reference (SR) is defined by Haiman and Munro 1983 as an inflectional category of the verb that indicates whether or not its subject is identical with the subject of some other verb. This verbal cross-referencing rule is a typical feature of many South American languages (van Gijn 2012). In SR is typically manifested as one of two suffixes on non-finite verbs in adverbial clauses. When the subject of an adverbial clause is identical to the subject of its superordinate clause, the verb of the adverbial clause receives a suffix that is glossed as same-subject (SS). When the subject of the adverbial clause is different than that of the superordinate clause it receives a different-subject (DS) suffix (shown in examples 1 and 2 on the next page). SR in Pastaza Kichwa (PK) has not yet been examined and this research approaches it through the lens of previous research on SR in other Quechuan languages. Quechuan researchers such as Stewart 1988 and Dreidemie 2007 encountered counterexamples to the verbal cross-referencing rule (example 3). In examining SR in Conchucos Quechua, Stewart 1988 proposes that SR is ultimately motivated by discourse- semantic restraints. The key issue is not verbal cross-referencing in the syntax but participant reference in the discourse. Therefore apparent counterexamples to the syntactic rules of SR in Quechua follow a higher rule of discourse organization. Stewart posits that the SS marker indicates the central participant or topic in the discourse and the DS marker an attention drawing device signaling non-focal participants, actions or states of affairs which are peripheral to the main topic of discourse. Thus the ‘main character’ of a narrative will be consistently marked in adverbial clauses as SS while minor characters will be consistently marked as DS. Stewart also asserts that this accounts for the fact that SS markers occur much more frequently than the DS marker as most narratives tend to follow a single main character. Using Stewart’s theory of discourse organization to examine SR in PK. I undertook an in context review of five PK narrative texts. I identified all occurrences of SR markers and their respective subjects. Subjects were classified in accordance with Stewart’s discourse organization rule as either focal or non-focal participants. While quantitative data supports the prevalence of the SS marker over the DS marker in PK, I argue with examples of the SR markers in context that Stewart’s rule of discourse organization is not applicable to PK. Subjects classed as either focal or non-focal participants are not consistently suffixed by either marker. Furthermore the notion of focal vs. non-focal participants appears to be too arbitrary to consistently class subjects as one or the other. Example 1: PK same subject SR adverbial clause

(Dreidemie; van Gijn; Stewart; Haiman and Munro) Functionality as a determinant of the lexical outcomes of language contact: a study of fire fans in northeastern Amazonia and Andean lowlands

Konrad Rybka (University of California, Berkeley)

In South America, despite demonstrable grammatical convergence that defines several linguistic areas, lexical borrowing is infrequent (e.g. 1-7). This raises the question what factors moderate the rate of lexical borrowing and how the paucity of lexical borrowing is compensated by other processes (e.g. lexical innovation and semantic extension) when cultures come in contact. A particularly felicitous domain to investigate these questions is the vocabulary of man-made objects: a comparative study of the actual artifacts can determine in which cases they were borrowed, providing a benchmark against which the linguistic consequences and their determinants can be gauged. According to one hypothesis, names of cultural artifacts are likely to be borrowed when a novel use for an object is introduced (8). Such claims, however, based on identified lexical borrowings only, obscure cases where objects are borrowed without their names. By mapping the borrowing of the objects against their names, this paper investigates the role functionality plays in regulating the lexical outcomes of language contact more broadly. The second goal of this paper is to develop methods for the areal study of linguistic and cultural change. Language contact is studied at regional and continent levels while ethnographic work typically focuses on a single group. The methodological contribution of this work is to couple continent-wide linguistic comparison to continent-wide study of material culture and show that it is possible to uncover important large-scale cultural and linguistic processes, as well as reveal numerous smaller-scale processes of cultural contact from which areal patterns arise. To assess the role functionality plays in determining the outcomes of language contact and to show the importance of coupling language contact studies with comparative ethnographic research, this paper focuses on fire fans—tools for fanning cooking fires—and their names in northeastern Amazonia and Andean lowlands. Having analyzed over a 1000 museum objects and numerous ethnographic studies, I mapped the fans made by various indigenous groups against their names using QGIS. The results show that fans are borrowed both when they have new functions and when they do not. The linguistic results differ accordingly. When borrowed fans do not have new functions, the usual linguistic result is the semantic extension of the name for the antecedent model to the inclusion of the borrowed one. By contrast, when the borrowed fans have new functions, the typical linguistic repercussion is lexical borrowing. Particularly interesting are the fans plaited from Astrocaryum palms that typically have additional uses related to bitter manioc processing (Figure 1). As fans with new functions, the models were borrowed by numerous bitter manioc horticulturalists in northeastern Amazonia, triggering lexical borrowing, forming complex Wanderwörter chains (Table 1). However, linguistic and ethnographic evidence shows that the same fans were transplanted by the Proto-Omagua-Kukama from the mouth of the Amazon to the Andean lowlands, an area characterized by the dispersal of feather fans (Figure 2). Here, Astrocaryum fans were borrowed by groups that do not rely on bitter manioc. For these groups, the fans did not have new functions; as a result, the borrowing of the fans triggered semantic extension instead (Table 2). In sum, the results speak to the importance of linking linguistic forms to their real-life referents and their users when analyzing patterns of language change as well as to the great impact that the domestication of bitter manioc has had on the material culture and languages of indigenous peoples in South America.

Andrés M. Sabogal (Universidad de Nuevo México)

En el Wayúunaiki se maneja un sistema de finitud verbal donde es obligatorio marcar el verbo como activo o estativo, y como real o irreal. El estado y el modo Realis se expresan mediante cero, mientras que el activo y el irreal se marcan explícitamente; mediante prefijos y sufijos temáticos respectivamente. El uso de sufijos de tiempo gramatical es opcional ya que el tiempo se puede inferir por medio de la oposición epistémica: real-irreal. Además de la distinción activo-estativo, todo verbo se debe expresar como simple o múltiple, el último distingue el aspecto iterativo que se asocia a la multiplicidad del sujeto en intransitivas o del objeto en transitivas. En 1b abajo se ejemplifica la forma múltiple en la que la cláusula se entiende como iterativa, e imperfectiva debido a que las cerezas se presentan como genéricas. Atravesando las categorías estativa-activa, el uso del verbo auxiliar maa le añade enfoque a la fase inceptiva de estados y acciones. En 2b se ejemplifica el efecto aspectual del auxiliar. Por último, el uso de los sufijos de género y número lü♀, li ♂, lii “plural” en acciones tienen un efecto que llamo la estativización. Esta operación aspectual se ejemplifica en 3b, donde se demuestra como la dinamicidad del “cazar” se modifica completamente al usar estos sufijos.

Pirahã’s verbal morphology - towards a reassessment Raiane Salles (University of British Columbia) Statement of the problem: Pirahã is a Muran language spoken by less than a thousand speakers who live by the river Maici, in Humaitá, Amazonas, Brazil. Most of its description was done by SIL (Summer Institute of Linguistics) missionaries/linguists, but there is a range of discrepancy among their reports. In this paper, I will focus on TAM verbal affixes in Pirahã. First, I will compare the analyses given by three different authors: D. Everett (1986), K. Everett (1987) and Sheldon (1988). Then, I will present my own fieldwork data, discussing cases where their analyses do not hold, introducing my own analysis. The Pirahã verbal morphology is not very well understood thus far. The three authors aforementioned have different conclusions both about the morpheme break of verb forms, and as to how the verb suffixes should be glossed. But the main difference among their approaches is whether Pirahã should be considered morphologically tenseless, i.e. in Comrie’s (1985) sense, lacking phonologically overt tense morphology. Example (1), glossed and translated by D. Everett (1986), is representative of his tenseless analysis of Pirahã. The multiple verbal morphemes we see would be aspect and mood markers, which can be used with any temporal reference salient in the context. (1) hi xa -oho -ái -p -iig -á -há -taio 3 ? -eat -ATELIC-IPFV-CONT-REMOTE-COMPL.CERT-RESULT 'Therefore, he is eating/he was eating/he will be eating.’ (Everett, 1986) However, not all authors agree that Pirahã is tenseless. Sheldon (1988) and K. Everett (1987) present analyses in which past, present, and future reference are morphologically encoded. Moreover, my fieldwork data reveal that there are some combinations of morphemes that are preferably used depending on the event time. They are -á-há for present, -í-koí for past, and -í-hái for future events. For instance, the two morphemes in (1) -á and -há are most frequently chosen for habitual and present progressive constructions. Also, sentences like (2), with past event time, usually use the morphemes -í and koí. And the -í + -hái combination as in (3) is exclusive to future events. (2) Context: speaker’s mom died a long time ago. ti bai koabáip-í-koí ipóihí 1 parent die-NON.PRES-REAL woman ‘My mom died.’ (Fieldwork, 2016) (3) Context: speaker is announcing to the others that I will make coffee (because I said I would and went towards the house). ʔi kapí kaaip-í-hái 3F coffee make-NON.PRES-IRR ‘She’ll make coffee.’ (Fieldwork, 2017) The facts I briefly mention here point towards the necessity of a new analysis of these verbal suffixes, taking into account the description of the facts as presented in the eighties and new fieldwork data. I will propose a realis vs. irrealis system in Pirahã, which sets apart future and non-future events, as well as a present/non-present split within the tense system. Although not frequently attested cross-linguistically (cf. Comrie, 1985), a present/non-present system seems consistent with the split made by Pirahã adverbials such as ahoahiái ‘yesterday/ tomorrow’. References: Comrie, B. 1985. Tense.

La interacción entre aspecto, modo, evidencialidad y su interpretación temporal en urarina

Gema Silva (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú), Jaime Peña (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú & Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas)

El presente trabajo propone un primer análisis detallado de la interacción entre diferentes dominios modales, evidenciales y aspectuales, y sus posibles interpretaciones temporales en urarina, una lengua aislada del nor-oriente peruano. A diferencia de otras lenguas relativamente cercanas geográficamente ―e.g. Yagua (Payne & Payne 1990), Matsés (Fleck 200), Kukama-Kukamiria (Vallejos 2017), Awajun (Overall 2017), Wampis (Peña 2015) ―, el urarina no presenta marcas formales explícitas para la expresión del tiempo (Olawsky 2006). Sin embargo, el presente análisis revela que diversos matices de temporalidad en pasado y futuro de las cláusulas del urarina se obtienen a partir de la combinación de distintos morfemas, como los de irrealis (-ri), asertividad (=ni), diferentes sufijos aspectuales o los morfemas evidenciales, como el asertivo/información de primera mano (=ni) o el reportativo (=je) (ver algunas de estas combinaciones en (1)– (6)). Si bien el excelente trabajo de Olawsky (2006) da cuenta de algunas de estas estrategias de interpretación temporal, el presente estudio revela que el sistema de anclaje de la temporalidad usado en urarina es todavía más complejo debido a su interacción con bases verbales (stems) derivadas con un grupo de sufijos de naturaleza aspectual y modal. Así, la combinación de elementos de distinta naturaleza morfológica y semántica muestra que el anclaje de la interpretación temporal en urarina involucra resultados semánticos a veces bastante sutiles a partir de la interacción de distintas categorías gramaticales. De hecho, algunos de los fenómenos que se muestran para la interpretación temporal en urarina son esperables de acuerdo con algunos patrones encontrados en la literatura tipológica, tal como la partición entre un mundo real/mundo irreal y el uso del irrealis para el futuro (Velupillai 2016; Givón 2001: 351); sin embargo, otros fenómenos reportados en el presente trabajo, como la relación entre marcas de asertividad, certeza y tiempo (ver (7)) todavía son raros o poco estudiados. El urarina es una lengua aislada en estado vital que cuenta con aproximadamente 5,188 hablantes, que habitan en comunidades ribereñas de los ríos Urituyacu, Chambira, Corrientes, y sus respectivos tributarios, en el departamento de Loreto (Ministerio de Cultura 2016). Las descripciones que se tienen de esta lengua corresponden principalmente a las variedades habladas en el río Chambira ―dialectos occidentales y del alto Chambira― (Olawsky 2006). Por otro lado, nuestro trabajo ofrece datos originales recogidos durante trabajo de campo en comunidades del río Corrientes, que constituyen una variedad diferente y todavía poco estudiada. De este modo, este artículo constituye un aporte a los estudios sobre esta lengua, en particular, y a los estudios de TAME en lenguas amazónicas, en general.

The expression of tense in Tupar´ı, a Tup´ıan language of the Brazilian Amazon Adam Roth Singerman (University of Chicago) This talk analyzes the expression of tense in Tupar´ı, a Tup´ıan language spoken in the Brazilian state of Rondonia.ˆ Previous work on Tupar´ı (Caspar and Rodrigues 1957; Alves 2004) discusses only one tense morpheme, the near past suffix -t, but our own research has determined that the language’s tense system is in fact much more intricate. The data that we will discuss in this talk have been collected by the author as part of an ongoing documentation project, with priority given to examples excerpted from texts and casual conversation. We advance the following claims. First, we argue that tense is an obligatory category in verbal clauses. Seemingly tenseless utterances, such as (1), in fact have a highly restricted temporal interpretation: the event must have taken place just a few minutes before the present. (1) Ow˜ akiret˜ tesot’asa. my.pet 3.die ‘My pet has passed away.’ [the dying of the pet has just taken place] Utterances such as (1) are in paradigmatic contrast with ones that contain overt temporal marking. This marking may take the form of a verbal suffix (example 2) or a second position particle (3). (2) Ow˜ akiret˜ tesot’asa-t.

As far as verbal predicates are concerned, there is strong evidence that tense is present even in superficially unmarked contexts – i.e., tense is an obligatory clausal category in Tupar´ı. Second, Tupar´ı makes a robust series of gradations in the past tense. The forms seen in (1), (2) and (3) belong to a larger set of grammaticized tense markers. This set includes the second position particle kut, which marks events that took place prior to the speaker’s birth (ubiquitous in myths and narratives), as well as a series of auxiliaries which combine with -t, opot˜ and kut to produce intermediate temporal gradations. Crucially, all of this tense marking is independent of evidentiality. Unlike Matses (Fleck 2007) and many other Amazonian languages, the Tupar´ı tense markers only encode information about how far back into the past an event took place; they say nothing about whether the speaker saw the event firsthand, about how the speaker acquired information about the event, and so on. While Tupar´ı does make an obligatory evidential distinction – contrasting witnessed events against non-witnessed ones – this is encoded using morphology that is formally and functionally distinct from tense proper (Author 2018b). In other words, whether the speaker chooses to employ the evidential suffix -pne/-psira˜ (with allomorphy determined via agreement with the number of the subject) is independent of the kind of temporal marking that he or she uses: ancient past kut, distant past opot˜ , near past -t, or superficially unmarked (as in example (1)). The complexity of Tupar´ı tense marking exceeds that found in close relatives such as Mekens (Galucio 2001) or Wayoro (Nogueira 2011). Indeed, we know of no other Tup´ıan languages that exhibit such an elaborate tense system. In future research we will investigate how the Tupar´ı system developed diachronically; this work should complement ongoing efforts to reconstruct the history of the Tupar´ıan branch of Tup´ıan (Moore and Galucio 1994; Galucio and Nogueira 2011).

Antônia Fernanda de Souza Nogueira (Universidade de São Paulo & Universidade Federal do Pará)

Wayoro é uma língua Tupi, da subfamília Tupari (Moore et al., 2008), localizada no estado de Rondônia (Terra Indígena Rio Guaporé, Guajará- Mirim, e Alta Floresta d’Oeste, cerca 250 pessoas). A língua Wayoro tem atualmente apenas três falantes fluentes. Os dados aqui apresentados são oriundos de pesquisa de campo realizada principalmente na Terra Indígena Rio Guaporé entre os anos de 2008 e 2017 (Nogueira, 2011, 2013, 2015). Este trabalho argumenta que a presença de propriedades sentenciais, como as marcas de aspecto, podem ser usadas para distinguir nominalizações de orações subordinadas na língua Wayoro. Os morfemas aspectuais identificados até o momento — presentes também em outras línguas da subfamília Tupari — são: {-kw} para indicar repetição e intensificação (pluracionalidade do evento), como em (1), e {-rara∼-ara} para indicar repetição, como em (2). Tais morfemas aspectuais coocorrem com os morfemas que indicam tempo, como {-t} ’não-futuro’ (cf. exemplo 2), evidenciando que existe na língua distinção formal entre aspecto e tempo (Nogueira, 2017). Rodrigues and Cabral (2012, 556) afirmam que

In modern Tupí languages, nominalizations by means of re- flexes of the PT [Proto-Tupí] suffix **-ap are found in any argu- mental function.

Em Wayoro, os dados sugerem que há dois tipos de construções envolvendo o morfema cognato {-p}. Há uma nominalização lexical que se comporta sintaticamente como um nome, pois pode ser modificada por um adjetivo ou outro nome e não permite o uso de afixos verbais, como os morfemas de aspecto. Por outro lado, há construções com {-p} que permitem diferentes afixos verbais, como a marca de aspecto repetitivo (cf. exemplo (3)) e o morfema {-kw} ’pluracionalidade’. Analisaremos construções desse tipo como orações subordinadas ou encaixadas uma vez que têm propriedades sentenciais. As orações subordinadas são formalmente distintas das sentenças matrizes por não permitirem morfemas de tempo e concordância entre verbo intransitivo e seu argumento. Galucio (2011) captura a diferença de comportamento de construções com o nominalizador {-ap} na língua Mekens (também da subfamília Tupari), propondo a distinção entre nominalização lexical (locativa e instrumental) e nominalização de evento. (1) e=mõ-ato-kw-a-t on 2sg=caus-banhar.se-pl-vt-nfut 1sg Eu banhei você. (Nogueira, 2011, 149) (2) o-ndo-rara-p nã on 1sg-deitar-rep-inf fut 1sg Eu vou deitar de novo. (3) e-ndo-rara-p toa-t on 2sg-deitar-rep-inf ver-nfut 1sg Eu vi você deitar de novo.

Kristine Stenzel (Federal University of Rio de Janeiro), Nicholas Williams (University of Colorado Boulder)

This paper presents preliminary findings related to the organization of social interaction among speakers of Wa’ikhana, a highly endangered East Tukano language of northwestern Amazonia. We focus on a set of highly salient minimal responses in Wa’ikhana conversations (cf. Sorjonen 2001 on joo and niin in Finnish), arguing that each distinctive response type is found in a unique sequential position. While mundane conversation is not typically considered among the more formal categories of verbal art such as narratives, songs, or ritual language, we argue for its inclusion here for two reasons. First, mundane conversation is the most basic form of language use upon which more formal speech genres are based (Levinson 1983; Sidnell 2001). Second, conversation across cultures displays both adherence to universal principles and unique language-specific properties (Dingemanse and Floyd 2014), including in the organization of ways of responding (see Brown 2000 for repetition in Tzeltal). This paper begins to explore this balance with regard to normative ways of responding in several types of informal interaction in Wa’ikhana. We consider video-recorded data and examine responsive actions (cf. Thompson, Fox and Couper-Kuhlen 2015) in the talk of a respected Wa’ikhana teacher and local leader in three types of interaction: (i) an informal interview with his mother on the topic of Wa’ikhana history and migrations; (ii) a spontaneous dyadic discussion with a close friend about issues in the development of the Wa’ikhana dictionary; and (iii) an informal multiparty interaction during a collective breakfast. On initial inspection, these interactions exhibit a number of highly salient minimal response tokens, including repeating part of the prior turn, equivalents of ‘yes’ and ‘uh-huh’, as well as other vocal but non-verbal responses (‘mm’, ‘aa’) with distinct prosodic patterns. Our primary goal is to categorize these various types of minimal responses to better understand how they are distributed and what each one achieves, moreover observing the role of body position and other non-verbal aspects of responsive turns. We use Conversation Analytic methods to categorize these practices with regard to their sequential position and both the action(s) they achieve and the (prior) action(s) to which they are responsive. This initial overview will lay the groundwork for more in depth investigation of individual response types in future studies. We view responding in Wa’ikhana conversation as a special kind of ‘verbal art’, some examples of which, taken from the informal interview, are given below. Based on initial observation each response token appears to accomplish something different. For instance, while the son’s response in (b), ‘uh-huh’ + partial repeat (Ʉ̃, sahaya sañakã) appears to acknowledge (and perhaps) claim understanding of the mother’s informing about her mother’s ‘skirt-wearing’, his response in (d), a minimal interjection (ãaa) seems to register, but not clearly align with or claim understanding of, the mother’s assessment of how her own mother felt about wearing skirts. Finally, in (g), a the son’s partial repeat response (kalipuhtikã) displays understanding and alignment with the mother’s reformulated assessment of her own mother’s feelings in (e)-(f), offered perhaps due to the son’s insufficient response in (d). Our ongoing analysis will work to clarify these functions based on a larger collection of examples drawn from additional naturalistic interactions, furthering our understanding of aspects of Wa’ikhana discourse, and also contributing to discussions of interaction in crosslinguistic perspective. Data excerpt (interlinear information omitted for space considerations), from a sequence in which the mother (M) is talking with her son (S) about the use of clothing imposed by the first priests who arrived in the region: a. (M) yʉ’ʉ pahko mʉnano sahaya sañalikodo ihikẽtidi naha. ‘My late mother (had to) learn to wear a skirt (lit: became a skirt-wearer).’

b. (S) Ʉ̃, sahaya sañakã. ‘Uh-huh, wear a skirt.’ c. (M) a’li bo'do sañano ehedipo’na du'a waduetidi. ‘When they started to wear clothes, they felt uncomfortable.’

d. (S) ãaa... e. (M) yʉ’ʉ, yʉ’ʉ wa'ma nu'miagõ ihigo i’ñetii. ‘When I was a young girl, I saw this myself.’ f. (M) ne to waedaye naha, yo kalipuhtiketidi. ‘(They) didn’t feel well (wearing clothes), were bothered (by the heat).

Jesse Stewart (University of Saskatchewan), Martine Bruil (Universiteit Leiden)

Ecuadorian Siona is a Western Tukanoan language that shows a rather distinct prosodic system from the systems described for other Tukanoan languages. Tukanoan languages, such as Barasana, Tatuyo, Kotiria, Tukano and Máíh� ͂ ki have been described as languages that possess a tonal system (See Gomez-Imbert 1997 and Gomez-Imbert and Kenstowicz 2000 for Barasana and Gomez-Imbert 2004 for Tatuyo and Barasana; Stenzel 2013 for Kotiria; Ramirez 1997: 68– 85 for Tukano; Farmer 2015: 21-24). Other languages such as Kubeo and Koreguaje have been described as languages with both a tone and a stress system (See Wetzels & Meira 2010 citing Chacón 2010 for Kubeo and Gralow 1985 for Koreguaje). Earlier descriptions of varieties closely related to Ecuadorian Siona already provide a distinct picture of their prosodic systems: Colombian Siona and Sekoya possess stress systems according to Wheeler (1987) and Johnson and Levinsohn (1990) respectively. This paper offers a preliminary description of the pitch accent and boundary tone configurations found in Ecuadorian Siona using the autosegmental framework (Pierrehumbert 1980) in a ToBI transcription system (Silverman 1984). We explore general patterns involved in declarative, exclamative, imperative, list, vocative, wh-question, yes/no question, surprisal etc. utterances at the prosodic word, intermediate phrase, and intonational phrase levels. Data was collected in the community of Sototsiaya, Ecuador using loosely structured role-playing events between community members. The information presented in this study will provide a basis for comparison for intonation patterns with other Tukanoan languages using phonetic analysis. Some preliminary findings reveal that both NPAs and PNPAs at the PW level in standard declaratives begin with a flat neutral pitch contour that raises to an H* target near the final syllable . For the overall IP, the pitch contour ends with a L-L% boundary tone. However, unlike declaratives where each prosodic word receives a H*, WH-questions typically only receive a NPA on the question constituent. This focus on the WH-constituent drives the rest of the utterance to become deaccented causing a downward trend in the pitch contour until its conclusion at the IP with a L-L% boundary tone. Single word question utterances (e.g., Where? There? Here? What?) appear to begin with a neutral pitch contour and raise to an H* where the IP also concludes with a H-H% boundary tone. Yes/no questions, only differ slightly from standard declaratives in that a prominent H* NPA (greater increase in f0) is realized on the final syllable of the final word in an utterance before falling to a L-L% boundary tone. Similarly, when there is a change in focus, contrast, or emphasis is placed on a given PW, a more prominent H* NPA is typically assigned. In some of these instances, the rest of the utterance becomes deaccented. List intonation, reflects standard declaratives with a H* target on each item until the final item, which takes a L* PA. Before the list begins, it is common to find a L- ip boundary. Unlike speakers of other Tukanoan languages, there is no evidence in the way of lexical tone; instead, Siona appears to have a small inventory of mostly monotonic pitch accents, which are used to convey focus and differentiating a limited number of phrase types. While results are preliminary, it appears that Siona speakers rely more heavily on lexical choice and morphological marking rather than a complex set of prosodic speech patterns to distinguish one phrase type from another. Whether PAs correlate with stress cues (e.g., increased amplitude & greater vowel length) will also be investigated.

Luciana Raccanello Storto (Universidade de São Paulo)

Karitiana is a Tupian language of the Arikém subfamily spoken in the state of Rondônia, Brazil. In this presentation we analyze a ritual narrative told us in 1992 by Cizino, the last Karitiana shaman: the male initiation ritual, entitled Osiip. The narrative is analyzed structurally and the use of linguistic constructions in verbal art is made explicit. Our goal is to show that Karitiana storytellers make use of various linguistic resources to create meaning in their oral narratives. The ritual narrative was recorded in K7 tapes, transcribed with the help of consultants, translated sentence by sentence in Portuguese by consultants and freely translated by us in Portuguese and English, but remains unpublished until today. The recording session was held in a natural setting, in which the shaman told the ritual to his nuclear family, that is his two wives, their children, and some married sons with their wives and children. The goal of the recording was to teach youngsters about a Karitiana tradition that had already been lost. The male initiation ritual, called Osiip, may be analyzed as divided in 6 parts according to its content: summary, orientation, complication, repeated complication, evaluation, and resolution. In part 1 the storyteller briefly summarizes the content of the ritual narrative, that is, when a male adolescent is about to get married, he invades a wasps’ nest with his own hand, and lets himself be attacked by them. In part 2, the storyteller prepares the scene for the narrative, giving further information about the ritual. He introduces each part of the narrative that is to come, using deontic sentences and 1st person plural to talk about the rules and obligations involved in the male initiation ritual, and simple declarative sentences to anticipate the facts of the complication and resolution. The complication sections are the parts in which the storyteller uses declarative sentences in 1st person singular with a direct evidential to tell his own experience in undergoing the initiation ritual; in the first complication part, his first ritual experience is described, and in the repetition of the complication he describes the other times he went through the ritual. The evaluation part is about the results of the initiation ceremonies; it has an educational goal, and makes sure the listener understands that the adolescent becomes a good hunter and provider for his future wife after he goes through the ritual because the Osiip magic has an effect over the game, that is attracted to the initiated hunter and becomes tame and easy to catch. The resolution is the climax of the narrative, in which Cizino’s father and uncles give him positive sanctions for having passed through the Osiip ritual. Some of the linguistic constructions used by Cizino Karitiana in the male initiation rite are: (1) assertative sentences are used instead or declaratives to delimit content in the narrative (introducing or concluding parts and subparts); (2) topic shift is introduced though subject repetition at the end of the sentence; (3) parallelisms (sentence repetition with a difference in form or meaning) are employed to create artistic effects; (4) copular sentences are used to describe traditional habits or ritual rules, together with deontic mood and passive sentences; (5) the use of direct speech, songs (including metrics), or ideophone phrases to create approximation effects. Semantic and Syntactic Properties of Aspect in Dâw (Nadehup Family)

Luciana Raccanello Storto (Universidade de São Paulo), Karolin Obert (Universidade de São Paulo), Clariana Assis Caldeira (Universidade de São Paulo)

The paper discusses two characteristics of aspectual morphology in Dâw, a language of the Nadehup Family spoken in São Gabriel da Cachoeira, Brazil. One is that the semantic features of directionality and aspect can be encoded simultaneously in a single aspectual head. The other is a comparison between the syntactic behavior of two aspectual heads in Dâw which select verbs of a fixed valency and other aspectual heads which do not do so. Both phenomena may be analyzed in terms of syntactic and semantic features present in the same functional head (portmanteau morphemes). Additionally, we will offer a syntactic analysis of how some complex heads are formed via head movement.

The two semantic domains of spatial and temporal relations bare similarities, since both represent the duration of a real world eventuality and make use of viewpoint. This explains why many languages with aspectual systems show, for example, an inherent aspectual interpretation in directional morphemes. On the other hand, directional morphemes seem to provide aspectual information in non-motion settings marking aspectual viewpoints (Michael, 2016). In Dâw, something similar can be observed: in multi-verb constructions encoding a motion event, the verb of the second verb slot usually is a directional motion verb denoting the direction of motion indicating at the same time information if the path of motion is bounded or unbounded, as in (1). Here the verb rãm ‘go’ is post-posed to the inherent motion verb ‘ox ‘run’ expressing both ablative reading and telicity. Yet in (2), where rãm follows a transitive verb in a non-motion setting, it seems to function as an aspectual marker indicating perfective aspect.

(1) rid [‘ox rãm] nâax dôo rid 3P run go river port LOC ‘They ran to the port’

(2) tir k惠nh rãm taax-ʉy 3s kill.with.arrow PVE1 tapir-DOM ‘He killed the tapir’

Turning now to syntactic properties of aspectual morphology that selects verbs with a fixed valency, we show in (3) that xâd (durative, that selects intransitive verbs) and dâr (punctual, that selects transitive verbs) have different inflectional properties (imperative and negative suffixes) when compared with other aspectual heads (in (4)):

(3a) Weed-or dep eat-IMP meat ‘Eat meat!’

(3b) Weed dâr-or eat PCT-IMP ‘Eat right away!’ (Carvalho, 2016)

(3c) *weed-or dâr (4a) Tir weed-Rr 惠థ 3SG eat-NEG-PVE2 ‘He did not eat’

(4b) Tir weed 惠థ-Rr 3SG eat PVE2-NEG ‘He did not finish eating’ (Carvalho, 2016)

Storto & Carvalho (2016) have hypothesized that some aspectual heads in Dâw seem to be TAM (Tense, Aspect and Mood) auxiliaries, since they can be suffixed by inflectional morphemes such as negation and imperative. As TAM heads, they project in a tree structure taking verb phrases as their complements.

When inflectional morphemes are suffixed to the aspectual auxiliary, we assume that the verb and the auxiliary may have formed a complex head via head-movement of the verb to the auxiliary position. When the verb is inflected instead, we assume that no movement of the verb to aspect takes place. If this hypothesis is correct, the verb always forms a complex unit with xâd and dâr via head movement.

It is still necessary to explain why this difference occurs. One possibility is that xâd and dâr are closer to the verb than other aspectual heads, perhaps because their semantics is that of lexical aspect, whereas the other aspectual heads appear as TAM auxiliaries together with tense and mood features and encode grammatical aspect.

Temis Tacconi (CONICET/Universidad de Buenos Aires), Cristina Messineo (CONICET/Universidad de Buenos Aires)

Es sabido que las lenguas del Chaco poseen sistemas de demostrativos que combinan deixis espacial con rasgos como visibilidad, tangibilidad, movimiento, posición, entre otros y que dichos sistemas contribuyen al señalamiento pragmático del tiempo, el modo y la evidencialidad, categorías no necesariamente codificadas en el predicado (Vidal y Klein 1998; Messineo, Klein y Carol 2016, entre otros). El maká, junto con el wichí, el chorote y el nivaclé, pertenece a la familia lingüística mataco-mataguaya. Es la lengua hablada por alrededor de 1.500 personas que habitan en comunidades urbanas y semiurbanas próximas a Asunción, Villa Hayes, Encarnación y Ciudad del Este (). Como sucede con otras lenguas chaqueñas, no presenta marcas morfológica de TIEMPO (T) en el verbo, rasgo que permite caracterizarla como una lengua “sin tiempo” [tenseless] (Cfr. Tonhauser 2011, Bittner 2005, Matthewson 2006). Si bien la distinción gramatical entre modo realis e irrealis permite señalar eventos constatados y no constatados (incluidas algunas instancias de futuro), la distinción básica entre presente y pasado no está marcada morfológicamente en el verbo. El maká posee un sistema de seis demostrativos que, además de concordar en género y número con el nombre al que determinan, indican distancia relativa, tangibilidad, visibilidad y accesibilidad epistémica (visto/no visto antes) (Gerzenstein 1995). Dichos significados sirven de base para otros dominios más abstractos, como la evidencialidad y el tiempo. Por lo tanto, la interpretación temporal de la cláusula se infiere a partir de la presencia de los demostrativos en la frase nominal, además de adverbios y otras partículas de tiempo. El presente trabajo se centra en la descripción y el análisis de los distintos matices que el sistema de demostrativos maká ofrece para el señalamiento del tiempo, así como también en el alcance de los mismos: local (sobre el nombre al que determinan), clausal (sobre toda la proposición) o discursivo (anclando el tiempo del relato y estableciendo la figura y el fondo en la narrativa). El análisis permitiría, por un lado, aportar a la discusión sobre tiempo nominal en las lenguas chaqueñas (cfr. Vidal y Gutierrez 2010). A la vez, pretende contribuir al estudio de la multifuncionalidad de los sistemas de demostrativos chaqueños, al extender su análisis a las implicancias pragmático-discursivas de los mismos en el discurso.

Hacia una subárea lingüística intermedia Andes-Amazonia en el piedemonte oriental norperuano y sur-ecuatoriano Pilar M. Valenzuela (Chapman University)

Cada vez más los especialistas en lenguas sudamericanas abandonan la división dicotómica entre “lenguas andinas” y “lenguas amazónicas” o “de las tierras bajas” que predominaba hasta finales del siglo XX. En particular, han surgido en los últimos años estudios que demuestran que las lenguas y culturas de los pueblos que ocupan el espacio intermedio exhiben elementos comunes a ambas zonas (Adelaar con Muysken 2004, Wise 2011, Gijn 2014, Michael et al. 2014, Valenzuela 2015 y de pronta publicación). Es más, estudios recientes plantean una división alternativa entre las lenguas del oeste vs. las lenguas del este del subcontinente sudamericano (Krasnoukhova 2012, van Gijn et al. 2016). El objetivo de este trabajo es identificar rasgos gramaticales y fonológicos compartidos por lenguas del piedemonte oriental nor-peruano y sur-ecuatoriano a fin de reforzar la propuesta de una sub- área lingüística intermedia entre los Andes y la Amazonía de esta parte de Sudamérica (Wise 2011, Valenzuela 2015 y de pronta publicación). Para esto se echa mano del concepto de área de expansión de rasgos (trait-sprawl area) propuesto por Campbell (2017). Este se enfoca en los rasgos mismos aceptando que su distribución en una determinada área geográfica suele ser desordenada y poco uniforme. Las entidades lingüísticas consideradas son arawak pre-andino, pano ucayalino, jíbaro, kawapana, záparo, tukano occidental, peba-yagua, kukama-kukamiria, kandozi, urarina, muniche, cholón, waorani, cofán y quechua. Se mostrará que existe una influencia significativa de las lenguas centro-andinas, especialmente quechua, en los demás idiomas. Luego, se identifica un rasgo ausente en quechua pero compartido por algunas otras lenguas de la zona.

Word-level prosody in Kukama-Kukamiria: The interplay of stress and vowel reduction

Rosa Vallejos (University of New Mexico), Chris Koops (University of New Mexico) In this talk we provide a phonetically grounded, usage-based account of word-level prosody in Kukama-Kukamiria (KK), a language of the Peruvian Amazon. We first examine KK lexical stress and show that in addition to a primary stress on the penultimate syllable (First author, 2016), KK shows a co-existing pattern of secondary stress assignment that lends prominence to the left-most syllable of phonological words. We then turn to unstressed vowels and argue that KK’s pervasive pattern of unstressed vowel reduction and deletion can be insightfully related to its complex stress system. Rather than being conditioned by the segmental context, vowel reduction and deletion happen across-the-board, targeting any vowel that carries neither primary nor secondary stress. KK is a highly endangered language spoken primarily in the region of Loreto in northwestern Peru. It is today spoken only by elders who are bilingual in Spanish and Kukama. Here we analyze spontaneous speech (narratives, instructional discourse, interview speech) from six speakers (3F, 3M) born and raised in rural communities. Between 5 and 15 minutes of speech from each speaker were fully segmented and exhaustively analyzed (average number of words per speaker: 512). Our analysis departs from the observation that, in natural discourse, longer phonological words can be reduced to two syllables, e.g. [kamutúni] > [kandún] ‘tomorrow’ (where place and voicing assimilation are predictable ancillary effects; all intermediate forms of reduction are also found). Note that the surviving vowels are (i) the vowel of the penultimate syllable, which is the site of primary stress, and (ii) the vowel in the initial syllable. This raises the question: Why does the initial vowel survive deletion? To address this question, we first present a phonetic analysis of word-initial syllables that do not bear primary stress, e.g. [ka] in [kamutúni] (1296 tokens), comparing them to stressed and non-initial pre-tonic vowels. We find that vowels in such syllables are often audibly lengthened, a phenomenon that has not previously been documented in detail. In fact, there is a highly significant duration difference relative to non-initial unstressed vowels (initials are 34.5% longer, on average); there is no significant duration difference relative to primary stressed vowels, thus eliminating duration as a cue to primary stress in KK. We analyze the prominence on the initial syllable as a form of secondary stress, given that it is restricted to vowel duration, while pitch remains low and only rises for the syllable carrying primary stress. We propose that this secondary stress makes the vowel in initial syllables immune to reduction and deletion. Next, we turn to the conditions for the deletion of fully unstressed vowels. At the time of writing, our quantitative analysis is restricted to word-final vowels (2368 tokens), whose overall deletion rate is particularly high (36.2%). We find that, unexpectedly, the preceding segmental context of these vowels has no significant influence on their likelihood of deletion. Counter to cross-linguistic tendencies, vowels are no more likely to delete adjacent to voiceless obstruents, including sibilants. Deletion is as likely after sonorants ([ɨmɨn(a)] ‘long time ago’, [kakɨr(ɨ)] ‘to liveʼ) or phonetically voiced stops ([eyunb(u)] ‘with food’). In conclusion, we argue that the two phenomena, stress and vowel reduction/deletion are related. The loci of reduction/deletion can be predicted best from the location of primary and secondary stress. Essentially, all syllables that receive no stress are subject to reduction and deletion. Thus, the KK pattern of unstressed vowel reduction is governed by the vowels’ position in the prosodic structure of the word. Enlhet-Enenlhet Nominal Temporal Reference in an Areal Perspective

Jens E. L. Van Gysel (University of New Mexico)

The South American Chaco, stretching from the south of Brazil over the east of Bolivia and the west of Paraguay into the north of Argentina, has often been described as a culture area (e.g. Miller 1999), and sometimes as a linguistic area (e.g. Aikhenvald 2011). Nevertheless, Campbell (2018: 32) finds that many features argued to be diagnostic of the Chaco as a linguistic area are also found outside it. This begs the question of whether the feature of nominal tense, argued to be present in five different language families spoken in the Chaco, but also widely present in the indigenous languages of South America in general (Campbell 2012: 285), can be used as a diagnostic for a Chaco linguistic area. Within the Chaco region, Matacoan, Guakuruan, Tupí-Guaranían, Zamucoan, and Enlhet-Enenlhet languages have all been argued to show, in some form or other, temporal or aspectual reference as a part of the noun phrase. For Matacoan, for example (see Campbell 2012: 287), Nivaclé has been shown to use demonstratives for temporal reference (example 1), and Wichí makes use of clitics attached to nominals and demonstratives (example 2). For Guaykuruan, Vidal & Gutiérrez (2010) argue that Pilagá demonstratives can also be used for temporal deixis (example 3). Paraguayan Guaraní (Tupí-Guaranían, Nordlinger & Sadler 2004), then, has suffixes expressing temporal relations on the noun (example 4), and Ayoreo (Zamucoan, Bertinetto 2014: 168), even though nominal tense is absent, seems to show a nominal habitual suffix (example 5). For the Enlhet-Enenlhet language Enlhet Norte (Kalisch 2009), lastly, a number of particles have been shown to temporally locate nouns as well as verbs (example 6). The contribution of the present paper will be twofold: on the one hand, descriptive empirical data will be presented on the Sanapaná language (Enlhet-Enenlhet). In this language as well, particles combining with nominal elements can achieve temporal reference, showing that nominal temporal reference is a fairly pervasive feature in the Enlhet-Enenlhet language family. On the other hand, I will investigate whether the feature of nominal tense supports the proposal of a Chaco linguistic area. This will be done, firstly, by examining the form and function of the referenced nominal tense constructions in order to assess whether they are similar enough to have originated through diffusion. Secondly, Kadiwéu and a number of lowland Amazonian Tupí-Guaranían languages – all spoken outside the Chaco but belonging to the aforementioned Chacoan language families – will be examined, looking for similar nominal tense constructions. If the constructions found within the Chaco strongly resemble each other and strongly differ from those found outside the Chaco, nominal tense will be taken as a supporting feature for the Chaco as a linguistic area. If they do not, it will be hypothesised that the widespread presence of nominal temporal constructions in languages of the Chaco is a consequence of the general high frequency of occurrence of this feature in languages of South America.

Nathalie Vlcek (Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro), Bruna Cezario (Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro)

O objetivo geral desta apresentação é descrever e comparar o aspecto dos evidenciais nas lín- guas Wa’ikhana e Tuyuka, duas línguas da família Tukano Oriental (TO) faladas no noroeste ama- zônico brasileiro, áreas transfronteiriças. Essa descrição é feita sob uma perspectiva tipológico- funcional e culmina em três objetivos específicos: (i) refletir sobre as diferentes definições de as- pecto e tempo nos evidenciais das línguas TO; (ii) delinear a diferença do aspecto da cláusula e do aspecto do evidencial nessas duas línguas específicas; e (iii) contribuir para a compreensão geral da noção sintática de aspecto através das especificidades dessas duas línguas minoritárias. Em muitas descrições de línguas TO, usa-se o termo tempo para definir certas características dos evidenciais (Stenzel, 2008:412). No entanto, esse sentido de tempo não se enquadra na defini- ção tradicional do termo, como presente, passado ou futuro em relação a um momento de fala (Gi- vón, 2001:285-6). Tempo nessas descrições esta relacionado aos diferentes tipos de evidenciais nas línguas. Para Barnes (1984), o tempo nas categorias de evidenciais INFERÊNCIA e PRESUMIDO do Tuyuka se refere a “quando o evento ocorreu” e nas categorias visual, não-visual e reportado, a “quando o falante obteve a informação”. Já Gomez-Imbert (1999), Gomez-Imbert & Hugh-Jones (2000), Stenzel (2008, 2013) e Vlcek (2016), entre outros, descrevem essa característica dos evi- denciais nas línguas TO como aspecto e não tempo. Propõem que formas imperfectivas indicam que o falante ainda tem acesso cognitivo/sensorial à fonte de informação na qual aquela declaração se baseia; e as formas perfectivas indicam que o falante não tem mais acesso a essa fonte. De acordo com esses autores, a escolha de aspecto é mais apropriada, pois tempo, se usado nesses casos, preci- sa ser bem definido para não se confundir com a definição tradicional supracitada. Ademais, essa definição de tempo não é a mesma para todos os tipos de evidenciais em uma língua. Em nossa aná- lise, seguiremos as vantagens de uma abordagem que analise estas noções associadas ao evidencial, como aspecto ao invés de tempo. Tomando como exemplo o Wa’ikhana, os dados (1) e (2) mostram a diferença entre o evidencial visual perfectivo e o imperfectivo. Em (1) o falante tem acesso senso- rial visual à fonte de informação da declaração, pois está participando da ação/estado; já em (2) o falante não tem mais acesso visual à evidência daquela afirmação. Não é, portanto, que a noção de tempo da sentença não esteja na cláusula, mas ela é um sentido presumido. O aspecto (perfectivo / imperfectivo), por sua, vez é a noção gramatical informada em alguns morfemas de evidencialida- de. Lembramos da hipótese de que em línguas parentes (como o Kotiria, em Stenzel 2013:244- 312), morfemas sufixais podem se unir ao verbo finito em ‘slots’, sendo um deles reservado para morfemas de modo e aspecto; e outro, de posição final, indicando modalidade da cláusula. Porém, alguns morfemas de modalidade da cláusula, como os evidenciais visuais e não-visuais do Tuyuka, por exemplo, possuem uma noção aspectual, e esta não está relacionada ao evento, e sim à eviden- cialidade (exemplos 3,4). Surge daí a importância de refletir sobre a diferença entre aspecto da cláu- sula e o aspecto do evidencial. Sobre o morfema que marcaria este aspecto da cláusula, em Tuyuka, encontramos o sufixo –a, que, quando explicado pelos consultores, se refere a uma ação com aspec- to ‘perfeito’ ou mais intensa (“fez mesmo”, “acabou de fazer já”). Barnes e Malone (2000:441-442) apontam que este morfema traria uma noção de tempo, sendo usado para indicar passado recente quando colocado antecedendo sufixos evidenciais (5). Este sufixo merece uma investigação mais profunda, visto que parece indicar o aspecto do evento em si já que ocupa o slot de aspecto e modo na língua (ao lado dos sufixos de modalidade) e também uma relação dêitica entre o momento do evento e o da elocução, sendo analisado em Vlcek (2016) como uma marca dêitica de um evento que aconteceu perto do espaço-base (6). Os dados do Tuyuka utilizados são de duas naturezas: (i) dados da bibliografia já existente sobre a língua (Barnes 1984, 2012; Malone 1988; Barnes & Malone 2000) e (ii) dados colhidos em cinco viagens de campo alternadas entre a cidade de São Gabriel da Cachoeira e a comunidade de São Pedro, contando com os colaboradores: IPHAN, ELF, FEL, ISA, ELDP, Museu do Índio e RolexA- wards. Os dados do Wa’ikhana provêm do ACERVO LINGUÍSTICO-CULTURAL DO POVO WA’IKHANA, disponíveis no ELAR (SOAS) e no PRODOCLIN (Museu do Índio). Exemplos e referências bibliográficas:

1 Mantida anotação original 2 PST (passado), REC (recente), EV (evidencial) – Glosas utilizadas pelos autores 3 Glosa para “espaço-base” (Vlcek, 2016) Tono y acento en Kakataibo

Roberto Zariquiey (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú), Lev Michael (University of California, Berkeley) Kakataibo es una lengua pano hablada en el Perú por unas 3,000 personas (aunque la cifra oficial es de 1879). Kakataibo presenta un complejo sistema prosódico a nivel de la palabra que ha sido catalogado de mixto en Zariquiey (2011). Básicamente, los picos tonales encontrados en las palabras kakataibo tienen dos fuentes diferentes: la mayoría de ellos son el resultado de los patrones de prominencia métrica que presenta la lengua y, por lo tanto, pueden ser analizados como acento. Hay, sin embargo, algunos picos tonales que se asocian con los tonos altos léxicos que manifiestan algunos morfemas ligados. Estos tonos altos son independientes de los patrones métricos de la lengua y no pueden ser predecidos bajo ninguna circunstancia a partir de ellos. En ese sentido, es apropiado analizarlos como la manifestación de un rasgo de tono (todavía restringido) en la lengua. Una misma palabra puede presentar a la vez picos tonales asociados al acento y picos tonales asociados al fenómeno de tono, creando interesantes efectos prosódicos.

En esta charla, ofrecemos una discusión de los rasgos de acento y tono en Kakataibo. Sobre el primero, luego de ilustrar las generalidades del sistema (formación de pies trocaicos por defecto y sensibilidad al peso silábico solo en posiciones pares), el énfasis se pondrá en las formas nominales, las mismas que presentan interesantes reglas para determinar el número de dominios prosódicos que requieren un pico tonal identificable como acento. Mientras que las raíces llevan siempre un acento, los morfemas ligados que se le añadan a estas crearán un dominio prosódico independiente si suman en total tres o más sílabas. Es decir, estamos ante una sola palabra en términos gramaticales que se compone de dos dominios fonológicos independientes en términos de asignación de acento (una palabra gramatical - dos palabras fonológicas). Es interesante constatar que algo similar se da al nivel de la frase nominal cuando se combinan dos palabras: si la que está a la derecha tiene tres o más sílabas llevará un acento; si este no es el caso, el único acento en toda la frase será el de la palabra hacia la izquierda. Entonces, en estos casos encontramos dos palabras gramaticales que componen una sola unidad prosodica (dos palabras gramaticales - una palabra fonológica). Este fenómeno no ha sido documentado para ninguna otra lengua pano hasta la fecha.

Con relación al tono en Kakataibo, esta charla presentará la lista de morfemas para los que se puede postular un tono alto léxico y estudiará su presencia en palabras de distintas clases. Se hará evidente que la lista está compuesta exclusivamente de morfemas que aparecen al final de la palabra y se discutirá algunas interacciones entre acento y tono en palabras de distintas clases. Finalmente, se analizará algunos casos de palabras monosilábicas con tonos ascendentes y descendentes en Kakataibo, demostrando que no se trata de tonos propiamente dichos, sino de patrones que pueden explicarse a partir del acento.

Préstamos shipibo-konibo en los cantos tradicionales kakataibo: léxico, morfosintaxis y estrategias de composición Roberto Zariquiey (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú), Alejandro Prieto (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú) Tal como lo señala Frank (1995: 227), las canciones tradicionales pueden considerarse “una de las llaves principales para el entendimiento de la vida y cultura kakataibo”. Tradicionalmente, los kakataibo han usado el arte verbal manifiesto en sus diversos géneros de canciones para varios fines sociales, tales como recordar a sus muertos, narrar episodios autobiográficos, denunciar una ofensa, prepararse para la guerra, ir de caza y arrullar a sus bebés (Winstrand 1975, 1976; Prieto 2015). Aunque la vitalidad de estos cantos se ha debilitado enormemente en los últimos años, las canciones tradicionales tienen una alta valoración social entre los kakataibo, quienes en general manifiestan un fuerte deseo de revitalizar esta práctica. La presente ponencia muestra evidencia léxica y morfosintáctica que sugiere que algunos géneros de canciones tradicionales del pueblo kakataibo tienen una clara impronta shipibo-konibo (en el léxico, la forma de los pronombres y algunos morfemas funcionales). Estos rasgos propiamente lingüísticos se complementan con algunas estrategias de composición (algunas de ellas muy extendidas en el contexto amazónico; ver Beier, Michael y Sherzer 2002). Estas estrategias (paralelismo semántico, líneas quebradas y patrones melódicos) acercan algunos géneros musicales kakataibo a ciertas tradiciones musicales shipibo-konibo. La presencia de esta impronta shipibo-konibo nos invita a proponer un escenario hipotético en el que, en realidad, los kakataibo habrían desarrollado algunas de sus prácticas musicales gracias al estrecho contacto que mantuvieron con el pueblo shipibo-konibo (–de acuerdo a las fuentes– ambos pueblos convivieron por cerca de 40 años; Winstrand 1998, Zariquiey 2011: cap. 1). Más aún, en línea con la noción de área discursiva propuesta por Beier, Michael y Sherzer (2002), la extendida presencia de rasgos shipibo-konibo en las canciones kakataibo nos ayuda a modelar un contexto social concreto para el contacto entre ambas lenguas y contribuye a la comprensión más clara del rol de difusor cultural que parece haber tenido el pueblo shipibo-konibo en la región del Ucayali y sus afluentes.
