  • 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.

  • A Study on Rongmei Syllable Structure
    Journal of Literature, Languages and Linguistics www.iiste.org ISSN 2422-8435 An International Peer-reviewed Journal DOI: 10.7176/JLLL Vol.56, 2019 A Study on Rongmei Syllable Structure Debajit Deb Department. of Linguistics, Rabindranath Tagore School of Languages and Cultural Studies, Assam University, Silchar, Assam. India Abstract A syllable is a sound or succession of a sounds uttered within a single breath-impulse. Syllable is a unit of pronunciation consisting of a vowel alone or of a vowel with one or more consonants. Phonologically, the syllable is “a unit containing one and only one vowel either alone or surrounded by consonants in certain arrangements”. (O’Connor 1973). It is generally accepted that nucleus is obligatory in all languages, thus, the same is true in case of Rongmei. Rongmei is one of the schedule tribe of Northeast India, mainly concentrated in Assam (Barak Valley), Manipur and Nagaland. Ethnically, Rongmeis are Mongloids and their language belongs to Kuki-Naga section of the Kamarupan group of the Baric sub-division of Tibeto-Burman family of languages (Matisoff, 2001). The analysis indicates that Rongmei treats both onset and coda as optional. Besides, the clustering phenomenon is absent at both onset position coda position. This paper is an effort to look into the possible syllable structure in Rongmei Naga language spoken in Barak Valley of South Assam. Keywords : Syllable, Syllable Tree, Heavy Syllable, Light Syllable, Syllable Structure, DOI : 10.7176/JLLL/56-07 Publication date :May 31 st 2019 1. Introduction According to Catford (1988), the syllable is defined “as a minimal pulse of initiatory activity bounded by a momentary retardation of the initiator, either self imposed, or more usually, imposed by a consonant type of articulatory stricture”.

The plants and records of uses of such plants in India dates back to the Vedic and Pre-Vedic era and Dr. K. E. Janaki Ammal in 1954 (Ammal 1954) was the first person to initiate such studies in this country. Considerable ethnobotanical works have been done in North-East India specially in Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur and Meghalaya including Jain & Borthakur (1980), Sinha (1986), Dutta Choudhury (1999), Shil (2007), Tiwari et al. (1978), Bhattacharjee et al. (1977), Gogoi et al. (1979), Rao & Jamir (1982), and Nath & Maiti (2003). Dutta Choudhury et al (2008) also recorded substantial amount of information on the medicinal uses of ferns and fern allies of this region.

Botanical Survey of India, Eastern Circle, Regional Centre, Shillong, Meghalaya, India. In the present investigation, literature survey on ethnobotanical plants published by different workers was conducted to records data on ethnobotanical uses of plants by the indigenous Naga tribal community. A total of 37 published papers covering about 13 different tribes of the Naga were investigated. Analysis of the taxonomic diversity recorded a total of 628 species belonging to 398 genera and 146 families. Of this, about 73.88% (464) of the species are used as ethnomedicine, 27.23% (171) as edible plants, 13.69% (86) as edible fruits, 5.73% (36) as dyes, 4.30% (27) as fish poison, 1.60% (10) as fermented food and beverage, 1.75% (11) as fodder and pasture grass and about 7.96% (50) for other uses. Further analysis of the species from different taxonomic groups showed that about 95.06% belongs to angiosperms (78.18% dicots and 16.88% monocots) and the remaining 4.94% are from gymnosperm, pteridophytes and edible mushrooms.

  • Northeast India's Multi-Ethnicities: Dominant Issues and Problems
    International Journal of Humanities & Social Science Studies (IJHSSS) A Peer-Reviewed Bi-monthly Bi-lingual Research Journal ISSN: 2349-6959 (Online), ISSN: 2349-6711 (Print) Volume-III, Issue-II, September 2016, Page No. 275-285 Published by Scholar Publications, Karimganj, Assam, India, 788711 Website: http://www.ijhsss.com Northeast India’s Multi-Ethnicities: Dominant Issues and Problems Neha Jain Lecturer, Karimganj College, Karimganj, Assam India Abstract Northeast India is considered to be one of the most diverse, culturally rich and environmentally rich regions of the country. It is a land where multiple ethnicities reside; every ethnic community has a history and shares a cultural memory. There exist tensions among these communities and the conflict of space and identity is further intensified by immigrant forces and acculturation. The region is diseased with separatist and militant issues worsened by nationalist-nativist conflicts. Often considered far away from the mainland India, the Northeast region faces the dilemma of being ignored and isolated. The paper raises the dominant issues regarding the perception and representation of the multi- ethnicities of northeast and the narrative underlying it. The paper also analyses two case studies which echo the dilemma of the people of the region and attempts to outline dominant perspectives in which Northeast is perceived. Key Words: Northeast, Ethnicity, Identity, Cultural Memory. 1. Introduction: The Northeast India is the eastern most region of the country which comprises of the eight sister states- Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Manipur, Meghalaya, Tripura, Mizoram, Nagaland and the newly recognized northeast state Sikkim. Every state in the northeast India shares international border; Arunachal Pradesh shares border with Bhutan, China and Myanmar; Assam with Bhutan and Bangladesh; Manipur and Nagaland with Myanmar; Meghalaya and Tripura with Bangladesh; Mizoram with Bangladesh and Myanmar; and Sikkim with Bhutan, Nepal and China.
