  • Languages and Peoples of the Eastern Himalayan Region (LPEHR)
    Languages and Peoples of the Eastern Himalayan Region (LPEHR) Deictic motion in Hakhun Tangsa Krishna Boro Gauhati University ABSTRACT This paper provides a detailed description of how deictic motion events are encoded in a Tangsa variety called Hakhun, spoken in Arunachal Pradesh and Assam in India, and in Sagaing Region in Myanmar. Deictic motion events in Hakhun are encoded by a set of two motion verbs, their serial or versatile verb counterparts, and a set of two ventive particles. Impersonal deictic motion events are encoded by the motion verbs alone, which orient the motion with reference to a center of interest. Motion events with an SAP figure or ground are simultaneously encoded by the motion verbs and ventive particles. These motion events evoke two frames of reference: a home base and the speech-act location. The motion verbs anchor the motion with reference to the home base of the figure, and the ventives (or their absence) anchor the motion with reference to the location of the speaker, the addressee, or the speech-act. When the motion verbs are concatenated with other verbs, they specify motion associated with the action denoted by the other verb(s).

  • The Loss of Proto-Tibeto-Burman Final Velars in Standard Jinghpaw
    Journal of the Southeast Asian Linguistics Society JSEALS Vol. 11,1 (2018): 1-12 ISSN: 1836-6821, DOI: http://hdl.handle.net/10524/52417 University of Hawaiʼi Press THE LOSS OF PROTO-TIBETO-BURMAN FINAL VELARS IN STANDARD JINGHPAW Keita Kurabe ILCAA, Tokyo University of Foreign Studies [email protected] Abstract The aim of this paper is two-fold: to show that the standard dialect of Jinghpaw has irregularly lost several final velars of Proto-Tibeto-Burman based on comparative evidence; and to attempt to show that the lost velars are reconstructable for an earlier stage based on both Standard Jinghpaw-internal and external evidence. Standard Jinghpaw has played an important role in Tibeto-Burman historical-comparative linguistics due to its phonological conservativeness. The loss of final velars is one notable exception, and recognizing this phenomenon enables us to identify and establish more cognate sets between Jinghpaw and closely related languages that provide a basis for a more robust reconstruction of proto-languages. The irregular loss of proto- final velars also provides some implications for the internal classification of Jinghpaw. Keywords: historical-comparative linguistics, sound change, velar deletion, Jinghpaw ISO 639-3 codes: kac, sgp, ckh, zkd 1 Introduction Jinghpaw (Jingpho) is a Tibeto-Burman language spoken in northern Burma and adjacent areas of China and India. It has played an important role in the reconstruction of Proto-Tibeto-Burman (PTB) due to its phonological conservativeness (Benedict 1972, Matisoff 2003, among others).1 The standard dialect of the language (SJ), spoken in the southern part of the distribution of the language, is one of the most well- described and documented dialects of the language.

  • History of the Scientific Study of the Tibeto-Burman Languages of North-East India
    Indian Journal of History of Science, 52.4 (2017) 420-444 DOI: 10.16943/ijhs/2017/v52i4/49265 History of the Scientific Study of the Tibeto-Burman Languages of North-East India Satarupa Dattamajumdar* (Received 25 April 2017; revised 19 October 2017) Abstract Linguistics or in other words the scientific study of languages in India is a traditional exercise which is about three thousand years old and occupied a central position of the scientific tradition from the very beginning. The tradition of the scientific study of the languages of the Indo-Aryan language family which are mainly spoken in India’s North and North-Western part was brought to light with the emergence of the genealogical study of languages by Sir William Jones in the 18th c. But the linguistic study of the Tibeto-Burman languages spoken in North-Eastern part of India is of a much later origin. According to the 2011 census there are 45486784 people inhabiting in the states of North-East India. They are essentially the speakers of the Tibeto-Burman group of languages along with the Austro-Asiatic and Indo-Aryan groups of languages. Though 1% of the total population of India is the speaker of the Tibeto-Burman group of languages (2001 census) the study of the language and society of this group of people has become essential from the point of view of the socio-political development of the country. But a composite historical account of the scientific enquiries of the Tibeto-Burman group of languages, a prerequisite criterion for the development of the region is yet to be attempted.

  • Case Marker in Bodo, Dimasa, Kok-Borok, Rabha, Tiwa and Mising
    Case marker in Bodo, Dimasa, Kok-Borok, Rabha, Tiwa and Mising Pratima Brahma, Ph.D. Research Scholar ==================================================================== Language in India www.languageinindia.com ISSN 1930-2940 Vol. 13:10 October 2013 ==================================================================== Abstract Case is a grammatical category, which is used to show the relationship among different words used in a sentence. In most branches of Tibeto-Burman language group, case is postposition. These postpositions take nouns structurally to form phrases; therefore they are called postpositional phrases. Postpositional phrases are made up of a postposition followed by a noun phrase. Though postpositions are syntactically bound elements, when they occur with nouns and pronouns, they constitute phrase instead of words. Bodo, Dimasa, Kok Borok, Rabha, Tiwa and Mising are the Tibeto-Burman language origin. The present paper investigates the case markers in Bodo, Dimasa, Kok Borok, Rabha, Tiwa and Mising. Case is realized in the form of prepositions, in these languages. 1.0. Introduction North-East region of India is called museum of culture, language, tribe and tribes, herbal medicine, animals, birds, etc. It is bounded by the political boundary of China in the North, Bhutan in the West, Bangladesh in the East and Burma (Myanmar) in the South. North-East India is comprised of eight sister states and they are Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim and Tripura. Among these states, as per land area, Assam is the biggest state of this region consisting of Brahmaputra Valley and Barak Valley. In North-East India, though languages belonging to different language families are found, most of the languages belong to Indo-Aryan and Tibeto-Burman family of languages.

  • A Brief History of Linguistic Science with Special Reference to the Bodo, Garo and Kokborok Languages of North-East India
    Indian Journal of History of Science, 54.1 (2019) 69-89 DOI: 10.16943/ijhs/2019/v54i1/49598 A Brief History of Linguistic Science with special reference to the Bodo, Garo and Kokborok Languages of North-East India Satarupa Dattamajumdar* (Received 06 July 2018; revised 18 February 2019) Abstract The scientific enquiry of language in India is an ancient exercise which started with the interpretation and standardization of the correct recitation and pronunciation of the Vedic texts. It can be traced back to ‘Prātiśākhyas’ (600–500 BCE) and later to Pāini’s work ‘Aādhyāyī’, a text on Sanskrit Grammar belonging to the 5th century BCE. Further, the scientific study of the languages of the Indo-Aryan family spoken in north and north-western part of India was brought to light in the genealogical study of languages by Sir William Jones with his famous deliberation on ‘comparative philology’ in 1786. But the history of the science of language/s or in other words ‘linguistic historiography’ started drawing attention only in the twentieth century when history of science emerged as a separate organized field of study. The present paper traces the history and development of linguistic science in the Indian context with a focus on Tibeto-Burman languages like Bodo, Garo and Kokborok spoken in north-eastern region of India. Key words: Colonial, Conscious, Genetic, Grammar, Identity, Morpho-syntactic, Philosophy, Phonetic, Sign, Social, Struggle, Supra-segmental, Voice, Zero. 1. THE STATE OF THE ART Western sciences aspired to the ideal of mathematics as embodied in Euclid’s Elements. “The only subject of study in the history of science is Homo sapiens… and it is the Homo He also points out that the concept of zero in sapiens in a social context that is the sole object the linguistic tradition is a discovery of many of the historian’s study of science.
