  • Native American Languages, Indigenous Languages of the Native Peoples of North, Middle, and South America
    Native American Languages, indigenous languages of the native peoples of North, Middle, and South America. The precise number of languages originally spoken cannot be known, since many disappeared before they were documented. In North America, around 300 distinct, mutually unintelligible languages were spoken when Europeans arrived. Of those, 187 survive today, but few will continue far into the 21st century, since children are no longer learning the vast majority of these. In Middle America (Mexico and Central America) about 300 languages have been identified, of which about 140 are still spoken. South American languages have been the least studied. Around 1500 languages are known to have been spoken, but only about 350 are still in use. These, too are disappearing rapidly. Classification A major task facing scholars of Native American languages is their classification into language families. (A language family consists of all languages that have evolved from a single ancestral language, as English, German, French, Russian, Greek, Armenian, Hindi, and others have all evolved from Proto-Indo-European.) Because of the vast number of languages spoken in the Americas, and the gaps in our information about many of them, the task of classifying these languages is a challenging one. In 1891, Major John Wesley Powell proposed that the languages of North America constituted 58 independent families, mainly on the basis of superficial vocabulary resemblances. At the same time Daniel Brinton posited 80 families for South America. These two schemes form the basis of subsequent classifications. In 1929 Edward Sapir tentatively proposed grouping these families into superstocks, 6 in North America and 15 in Middle America.

  • 33 Contact and North American Languages
    9781405175807_4_033 1/15/10 5:37 PM Page 673 33 Contact and North American Languages MARIANNE MITHUN Languages indigenous to the Americas offer some good opportunities for inves- tigating effects of contact in shaping grammar. Well over 2000 languages are known to have been spoken at the time of first contacts with Europeans. They are not a monolithic group: they fall into nearly 200 distinct genetic units. Yet against this backdrop of genetic diversity, waves of typological similarities suggest pervasive, longstanding multilingualism. Of particular interest are similarities of a type that might seem unborrowable, patterns of abstract structure without shared substance. The Americas do show the kinds of contact effects common elsewhere in the world. There are some strong linguistic areas, on the Northwest Coast, in California, in the Southeast, and in the Pueblo Southwest of North America; in Mesoamerica; and in Amazonia in South America (Bright 1973; Sherzer 1973; Haas 1976; Campbell, Kaufman, & Stark 1986; Thompson & Kinkade 1990; Silverstein 1996; Campbell 1997; Mithun 1999; Beck 2000; Aikhenvald 2002; Jany 2007). Numerous additional linguistic areas and subareas of varying sizes and strengths have also been identified. In some cases all domains of language have been affected by contact. In some, effects are primarily lexical. But in many, there is surprisingly little shared vocabulary in contrast with pervasive structural parallelism. The focus here will be on some especially deeply entrenched structures. It has often been noted that morphological structure is highly resistant to the influence of contact. Morphological similarities have even been proposed as better indicators of deep genetic relationship than the traditional comparative method.

  • Lessons from the Pacific Northwest University of British Arizona State
    PERSPECTIVES How to investigate linguistic diversity: Lessons from the Pacific Northwest HENRY DAVIS CARRIE GILLON LISA MATTHEWSON University of British Arizona State University University of British Columbia Columbia On the basis of five case studies from languages of the American Pacific Northwest, we argue that, at least in the areas of syntax and semantics, a scientific approach to the study of linguistic di - versity must be empirically grounded in theoretically informed, hypothesis-driven fieldwork on in - dividual languages. This runs counter to recent high-profile claims that large-scale typology based on the sampling of descriptive grammars yields superior results. We show that only a hypothesis- driven approach makes falsifiable predictions, and only a methodology that yields negative as well as positive evidence can effectively test those predictions. Targeted elicitation is particularly im - portant for languages with a small number of speakers, where statistical analysis of large-scale cor - pora is impossible. Given that a large proportion of the world’s linguistic diversity is found in such languages, we conclude that formal, hypothesis-driven fieldwork constitutes the best way rapidly and efficiently to document the world’s remaining syntactic and semantic diversity.* Keywords : fieldwork, methodology, syntax, semantics, Salish, Wakashan, Tsimshianic 1. Introduction . At least half of the world’s nearly 7,000 languages will no longer be spoken by the end of this century (Harrison 2007, among many others). This immi - nent large-scale language extinction has alarming consequences for the investigation of linguistic diversity. If we wish to understand the scope and limits of crosslinguistic vari - ation, it is imperative that in the near future we gather as much information about endan - gered languages as we can, in a form that allows systematic and accurate crosslinguistic comparison.

  • Language Contact and the Dynamics of Language: Theory and Implications 10-13 May 2007 Leipzig
    Paper for the Symposium Language Contact and the Dynamics of Language: Theory and Implications 10-13 May 2007 Leipzig Rethinking structural diffusion Peter Bakker First draft. Very preliminary version. Please do not quote. May 2007. Abstract Certain types of syntactic and morphological features can be diffused, as in convergence and metatypy, where languages take over such properties from neighboring languages. In my paper I would like to explore the idea that typological similarities in the realm of morphology can be used for establishing historical, perhaps even genetic, connections between language families with complex morphological systems. I will exemplify this with North America, in particular the possible connections between the language families of the Northwest coast/ Plateau and those of the eastern part of the Americas. I will argue on the basis on typological similarities, that (ancestor languages of ) some families (notably Algonquian) spoken today east of the continental divide, were once spoken west of the continental divide. This will lead to a more theoretical discussion about diffusion: is it really possible that more abstract morphological features such as morpheme ordering can be diffused? As this appears to be virtually undocumented, we have to be very skeptical about such diffusion. This means that mere morphological similarities between morphologically complex languages should be taken as evidence for inheritance rather than the result of contact. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 0. Preface Not too long ago, many colleagues in linguistics were skeptical that many were actually due to contact. Now that language contact research has become much more mainstream and central than when I started to work in that field, it is time to take the opposite position.

  • Morphological Complexity and Language Contact in Languages Indigenous to North America Marianne Mithun University of California, Santa Barbara
    Morphological Complexity and Language Contact in Languages Indigenous to North America Marianne Mithun University of California, Santa Barbara It has long been noticed that morphological complexity is not distributed evenly across the world. There are also well-known geographical pockets of morphological elaboration in areas of Northern Australia, Papua New Guinea, Siberia, and the Caucasus. During the 19th century, Duponceau (1819), Brinton (1886), and Hewitt (1893) pointed to the special complexity of languages of the Americas. But the idea that complex morphological structure should show areal distributions seems counterintuitive: traditional scales of borrowability have typically begun with vocabulary, then moved through phonetics and phonology, and on to syntax, with morphology at the end or not mentioned at all. Such scales would seem to be in line with what we know about domains of structure: morphological structure is distinguished from syntax by its routinization: most of it is below the level of consciousness. Bilinguals should be less likely to transfer individual morphemes or morphological patterns from one of their languages to the other than to transfer whole words or word orders. One factor underlying the distributions of complexity might be the social circumstances under which the languages are used and transmitted, as proposed by Dahl (2004, to appear) and (Trudgill 2011, to appear). In small, closed communities, where speakers interact with a constant group of native interlocutors who share a common set of presuppositions about the world, culture, and interests, certain expressions are likely to occur more frequently in speech than in larger, more diffuse communities. The frequency can lead to routinization of the recurring sequences and the development of complex morphological structures, with large inventories of lexicalized expressions.

  • Paper Algonquian, Wiyot, and Yurok: Proving a Distant Genetic Relationship
    Algonquian-Ritwan, (Kutenai) and Salish: Proving a distant genetic relationship * Peter Bakker Aarhus University A connection between Algonquian and Salishan was first suggested almost a century ago, and several Americanists have mentioned it or briefly discussed it (Boas, Haas, Sapir, ).i, ;, Swadesh, Thompson, Denny). However, nobody has tried to provide proof for the matter beyond a few suggestive lexical correspondences (Haas, Denny) and typological similarities (Sapir). In my paper I follow the method used by Goddard (1975) and focus on morphology to try and prove a genetic relationship between the two families. The morphological organization of the Salishan and Algonquian verbs are highly similar. Moreover, some of the pertinent grammatical morphemes also show striking formal similarities. In addition, a number of shared quirks between Salishan and Algonquian point to a genetic connection. There is archaeological evidence linking both Algonquian and Ritwan languages with the Columbia Plateau, where Salishan languages dominate, suggesting a shared history of the three groupings in the Columbia River area. Introduction The title of this paper is a clear allusion to Ives Goddard's famous 1975 paper Algonquian, Wiyot, and Yurok: Proving a distant genetic relationship. The genetic relationship between Algonquian and the two Californian languages (together the Ritwan family) was controversial, but is now generally accepted, and Ritwan and Algonquian families are now conceived of as members of the Algic stock. I use, to the extent that this is possible, the same method as Goddard used for Algic. Whereas Goddard compared Proto-Algonquian (hereafter P A) * I am not a Salishanist, neither do I have knowledge of Proto-Algonquian This is a preliminary paper and I hope to receive feedback.

Languages and Dialects in Straits Salishan Section I discusses the history of the terminological confusion. Section 2 discusses the level of mutual intelligibility between Klallam and Northern Straits. Section 3 summarizes the lexical Timothy Montier differences among the dialects, while sections 4 and 5 discuss the phonological and grammatical differences. Section 6 describes the problem of the four recorded varieties of Samish. Section 7 University of North Texas briefly discusses dialect differences within Saanich and within Klallam. Section 8, points out some other complicating factors in sorting out the varieties including generational differences, male/female differences, and the new, revitalized varieties of the Straits languages and dialects.
