    Dialectal layers in West Iranian: a Hierarchical Dirichlet Process Approach to Linguistic Relationships Chundra A. Cathcart Department of Comparative Language Science/ Center for the Interdisciplinary Study of Language Evolution University of Zurich December 2019 (revised June 2021) Abstract This paper addresses a series of complex and unresolved issues in the historical phonology of West Iranian languages, (Persian, Kurdish, Balochi, and other languages), which display a high degree of non-Lautgesetzlich behavior. Most of this irregularity is undoubtedly due to language contact; we argue, however, that an oversimplified view of the processes at work has prevailed in the lit- erature on West Iranian dialectology, with specialists assuming that deviations from an expected outcome in a given non-Persian language are due to lexical borrowing from some chronological stage of Persian. It is demonstrated that this qualitative approach yields at times problematic conclusions stemming from the lack of explicit probabilistic inferences regarding the distribution of the data: Persian may not be the sole donor language; additionally, borrowing at the lexical level is not always the mechanism that introduces irregularity. In many cases, the possibility that West Iranian languages show different reflexes in different conditioning environments remains under-explored. We employ a novel Bayesian approach designed to overcome these problems and tease apart the different determinants of irregularity in patterns of West Iranian sound change. Our methodology allows us to provisionally resolve a number of outstanding questions in the lit- erature on West Iranian dialectology concerning the dialectal affiliation of certain sound changes. We outline future directions for work of this sort. arXiv:2001.05297v3 [cs.CL] 26 Jul 2021 1 Introduction Isoglosses based on sound changes differentiating the West Iranian languages, a group comprising Persian, Kurdish, Balochi, and other speech varieties, have long been of interest to linguists.

  • 542-546. Reviewed by Habib Borjian, Columbia
    Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society 20.3, 2010: 542-546. Reviewed by Habib Borjian, Columbia University, New York ETYMOLOGICAL DICTIONARY OF THE IRANIAN VERB. By JOHNNY CHEUNG, (Leiden Indo- European Etymological Dictionary Series, ed. Alexander Lubotsky, 2). pp. xxiv, 600. Leiden and Boston, Brill, 2007. Compilation of this dictionary was carried out within the Indo-European Etymological Dictionary research project at the Department of Comparative Indo-European Linguistics at Leiden University. The project, supervised by Alexander Lubotsky and Robert Beekes, aims to produce an online dictionary containing all words in the Indo-European languages that can be traced back to the proto-language (PIE). Dictionaries on the following branch family of languages have been published to date: Albanian, Anatolian, Armenian, Baltic, Celtic, Germanic, Greek, Indo-Aryan, Iranian, Italic, Slavic, Tocharian. The volume on Iranian under review consists of a dictionary (pp. 1-475), references (476-504), indices (505-588), and an English-Iranian glossary (589- 600). It is the first complete etymological dictionary of Iranian and attempts to give a critical survey of all the verb roots that may have existed in proto-Iranian (PIr.) as deduced from the attested Iranian descendants as well as the Sanskrit and PIE evidence. This is occasionally accompanied by an analysis of the morphology and assessment of pedigree. Notwithstanding those reconstructed PIr. roots which are formed in the Indo-Iranian era or even after the split thereof, many Iranian verbs do show PIE provenance. The dictionary’s lemmata are PIr. roots arranged in Roman alphabetical order. Each root is followed by a gloss, a list of derivatives in the dead and living Iranian languages, the Sanskrit and PIE roots and a selective list of IE cognates, and references.

  • Linguistic Evidence for Cultural Exchange in Prehistoric Western Central Asia
    SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS Number 129 December, 2003 Linguistic Evidence for Cultural Exchange in Prehistoric Western Central Asia by Michael Witzel Victor H. Mair, Editor Sino-Platonic Papers Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia, PA 19104-6305 USA [email protected] www.sino-platonic.org SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS FOUNDED 1986 Editor-in-Chief VICTOR H. MAIR Associate Editors PAULA ROBERTS MARK SWOFFORD ISSN 2157-9679 (print) 2157-9687 (online) SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS is an occasional series dedicated to making available to specialists and the interested public the results of research that, because of its unconventional or controversial nature, might otherwise go unpublished. The editor-in-chief actively encourages younger, not yet well established, scholars and independent authors to submit manuscripts for consideration. Contributions in any of the major scholarly languages of the world, including romanized modern standard Mandarin (MSM) and Japanese, are acceptable. In special circumstances, papers written in one of the Sinitic topolects (fangyan) may be considered for publication. Although the chief focus of Sino-Platonic Papers is on the intercultural relations of China with other peoples, challenging and creative studies on a wide variety of philological subjects will be entertained. This series is not the place for safe, sober, and stodgy presentations. Sino- Platonic Papers prefers lively work that, while taking reasonable risks to advance the field, capitalizes on brilliant new insights into the development of civilization. Submissions are regularly sent out to be refereed, and extensive editorial suggestions for revision may be offered. Sino-Platonic Papers emphasizes substance over form. We do, however, strongly recommend that prospective authors consult our style guidelines at www.sino-platonic.org/stylesheet.doc.

  • Word Accent Systems in the Languages of Asia 2
    1 10. Word accent systems in the languages of Asia 2 3 4 1 2 5 Rene´ Schiering and Harry van der Hulst 6 7 1. Introduction 8 9 10 This chapter surveys accentual systems in the languages of Asia. Our objective has been to provide information on as many languages as we 11 could lay our hands on, given the inevitable limitations on the time for 12 13 this project and on access to sources in this period. This survey, then, does not claim anything near completeness. In a way, it presents an 14 agenda for further studies especially witnessed by the many sections where 15 16 little or no information on accentual systems is presented. We are not 17 defending these limitations by claiming that the basic descriptive work has not been done in all these cases, although for many languages this is 18 19 probably true. We have no doubt, however, that a lot of useful infor- 20 mation on word accent has been gathered and is present in the countless language descriptions that we have been unable to consult. There may 21 22 even be typological surveys that focus on word accent that we have 23 overlooked. With all these limitations and shortcomings, we hope that this chapter still o¤ers a useful inventory which will stimulate further typo- 24 25 logical and theoretical research. 26 In section 2, we outline the contents of this chapter, motivating its organization and introducing the conventions which guide the presenta- 27 28 tion of accentual data. Section 3 explains on which materials this survey 29 is based.

It depends on the articles you have been invited to write and which will be published in its bulletin; on the regularity with whioh subscriptions will be acquitted; on the zeal you will put in carrying out its resolutions and on the control you will exercise over its organs when you prove to be actively interested in its soaring. It is your Society, its aim is to serve you; let us then, in our turn, serve it so that it might fulfil its task and live long and prosper.
