  • Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics &A
    Online Appendix for Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue (2014) Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics & Change Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue The following document lists the languages of the world and their as- signment to the macro-areas described in the main body of the paper as well as the WALS macro-area for languages featured in the WALS 2005 edi- tion. 7160 languages are included, which represent all languages for which we had coordinates available1. Every language is given with its ISO-639-3 code (if it has one) for proper identification. The mapping between WALS languages and ISO-codes was done by using the mapping downloadable from the 2011 online WALS edition2 (because a number of errors in the mapping were corrected for the 2011 edition). 38 WALS languages are not given an ISO-code in the 2011 mapping, 36 of these have been assigned their appropri- ate iso-code based on the sources the WALS lists for the respective language. This was not possible for Tasmanian (WALS-code: tsm) because the WALS mixes data from very different Tasmanian languages and for Kualan (WALS- code: kua) because no source is given. 17 WALS-languages were assigned ISO-codes which have subsequently been retired { these have been assigned their appropriate updated ISO-code. In many cases, a WALS-language is mapped to several ISO-codes. As this has no bearing for the assignment to macro-areas, multiple mappings have been retained. 1There are another couple of hundred languages which are attested but for which our database currently lacks coordinates.

  • The Malayic-Speaking Orang Laut Dialects and Directions for Research
    KARLWacana ANDERBECK Vol. 14 No., The 2 Malayic-speaking(October 2012): 265–312Orang Laut 265 The Malayic-speaking Orang Laut Dialects and directions for research KARL ANDERBECK Abstract Southeast Asia is home to many distinct groups of sea nomads, some of which are known collectively as Orang (Suku) Laut. Those located between Sumatra and the Malay Peninsula are all Malayic-speaking. Information about their speech is paltry and scattered; while starting points are provided in publications such as Skeat and Blagden (1906), Kähler (1946a, b, 1960), Sopher (1977: 178–180), Kadir et al. (1986), Stokhof (1987), and Collins (1988, 1995), a comprehensive account and description of Malayic Sea Tribe lects has not been provided to date. This study brings together disparate sources, including a bit of original research, to sketch a unified linguistic picture and point the way for further investigation. While much is still unknown, this paper demonstrates relationships within and between individual Sea Tribe varieties and neighbouring canonical Malay lects. It is proposed that Sea Tribe lects can be assigned to four groupings: Kedah, Riau Islands, Duano, and Sekak. Keywords Malay, Malayic, Orang Laut, Suku Laut, Sea Tribes, sea nomads, dialectology, historical linguistics, language vitality, endangerment, Skeat and Blagden, Holle. 1 Introduction Sometime in the tenth century AD, a pair of ships follows the monsoons to the southeast coast of Sumatra. Their desire: to trade for its famed aromatic resins and gold. Threading their way through the numerous straits, the ships’ path is a dangerous one, filled with rocky shoals and lurking raiders. Only one vessel reaches its destination.

  • On the Perception of Prosodic Prominences and Boundaries in Papuan Malay
    Chapter 13 On the perception of prosodic prominences and boundaries in Papuan Malay Sonja Riesberg Universität zu Köln & Centre of Excellence for the Dynamics of Language, The Australian National University Janina Kalbertodt Universität zu Köln Stefan Baumann Universität zu Köln Nikolaus P. Himmelmann Universität zu Köln This paper reports the results of two perception experiments on the prosody ofPapuan Malay. We investigated how native Papuan Malay listeners perceive prosodic prominences on the one hand, and boundaries on the other, following the Rapid Prosody Transcription method as sketched in Cole & Shattuck-Hufnagel (2016). Inter-rater agreement between the participants was shown to be much lower for prosodic prominences than for boundaries. Importantly, however, the acoustic cues for prominences and boundaries largely overlap. Hence, one could claim that inasmuch as prominence is perceived at all in Papuan Malay, it is perceived at boundaries, making it doubtful whether prosodic prominence can be usefully distinguished from boundary marking in this language. Our results thus essentially confirm the results found for Standard Indonesian by Goedemans & van Zanten (2007) and vari- ous claims regarding the production of other local varieties of Malay; namely, that Malayic varieties appear to lack stress (i.e. lexical stress as well as post-lexical pitch accents).

Historically, the tamadun of Jambi Malay has been established by Islam and Malay customs have become an important structure of Malay and sovereignty in Jambi. Jambi Malay region that was observed from ethnic grouping, namely social groups that were closely related to Jambi Sultan have twelve groups including Jebus, Pemayung, MaroSebo, Awin, Petajin, Suku Tujuh Koto, Mentong, Panagan, Serdadu, Kebalen, Aur Hitam and central Pinokowan. Jambi Malay area is defined as the area (which practices proper behavior, speaks Malay and they are Muslim). Jambi Malay Community has a character with a philosophy of life, based on: Holding on the Islamic faith as a principle of viewpoint; respecting the leader; greatly guarding traditional customs including prohibited abstinence and customs; giving priority to the elderly; prioritizing family ties and friendship relations; a person who does not return the respect given will be looked down upon; manners; urbane; deliberation/consensus; and work together. Malay society generally has a way of life or custom that is characterized by high civilization values. These characteristics of high civilization are the main foundation for the Jambi Malay community to continue their existence as a society that continues to perpetuate their identity until now. Keywords: Tamadun Of Melay, Jambi Region, National Character Malay race lived in Southeast Asia and around.

  • What Is Riau Indonesian?
    What Is Riau Indonesian? David Gil Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, Leipzig 1 ABSTRACT This paper addresses the question: What is Riau Indonesian? Previous studies of Riau Indonesian have attracted a variety of criticisms suggesting that, in some sense or another, it is not a "real" or "proper" language. This paper takes up and dismisses 12 specific claims regarding the nature of Riau Indonesian, including, among others, that it is a corrupt, broken, imperfect language variety, a language variety without native speakers, an artefact of code switching, or a creole. Examination of Riau Indonesian in sociolinguistic space, in relationship to its substrate and superstrate languages, and in geographical space, in relationship to neighboring varieties of colloquial Indonesian, suggests that there is nothing particularly exceptional about it, and that it is a run-of-the- mill language just like numerous others. In conclusion, it is suggested that other major world languages may also possess a range of language varieties, similar in their broad sociolinguistic profiles to Riau Indonesian, but which in some cases may not yet have been adequately recognized or described. 2 1. IN SEARCH OF A NAME, IN SEARCH OF AN IDENTITY Languages and dialects do not present themselves to us with ready-made names, well- established identities, and their own individual profiles plus three-letter codes in the latest edition of Ethnologue. Often, several distinct languages or dialects share a single name; conversely, a single language or dialect may be known by several different names, or, alternatively, may not have any name of its own. Linguists try to clear up the mess, by engaging in careful descriptions, both of linguistic structure (lexicon, phonology, morphology, syntax, and so forth) and of the sociological and geographical landscape in which such structure is embedded.
