Loanwords Between the Arandic Languages and Their Western Neighbours: Principles of Identification and Phonological Adaptation
Loanwords between the Arandic languages and their western neighbours: Principles of identification and phonological adaptation Harold%Koch% Australian%National%University% [email protected]% This paper 1 summarises the characteristics of loanwords, especially the ways in which they are adapted to the structure of the borrowing language, and surveys the various tests that have been provided in both the general historical linguistics literature and Australianist literature for identifying the fact and direction of borrowing. It then provides a case study of loanwords out of and into the Arandic languages; the other languages involved are especially Warlpiri but to some extent dialects of the Western Desert language. The primary focus is on the phonological adaptation of loanwords between languages whose phonological structure differs especially in the presence vs. absence of initial consonants, in consequence of earlier changes whereby Arandic languages lost all initial consonants. While loanwords out of Arandic add a consonant, it is claimed that loanwords into Arandic include two chronological strata: in one the source consonant was preserved but the other (older) pattern involved truncation of the source consonant. Reasons for this twofold behaviour are presented (in terms of diachronic and contrastive phonology), and the examples of the more radical (older) pattern 1 The title, abstract, and introduction have been altered from the version offered at ALS2013, which was titled ‘How to identify loanwords between Australian languages: -

How Warumungu People Express New Concepts Jane Simpson Tennant
How Warumungu people express new concepts Jane Simpson Tennant Creek 16/10/85 [This paper appeared in a lamentedly defunct journal: Simpson, Jane. 1985. How Warumungu people express new concepts. Language in Central Australia 4:12-25.] I. Introduction Warumungu is a language spoken around Tennant Creek (1). It is spoken at Rockhampton Downs and Alroy Downs in the east, as far north as Elliott, and as far south as Ali Curung. Neighbouring languages include Alyawarra, Kaytej, Jingili, Mudbura, Wakaya, Wampaya, Warlmanpa and Warlpiri. In the past, many of these groups met together for ceremonies and trade. There were also marriages between people of different language groups. People were promised to 'close family' from close countries. Many children would grow up with parents who could speak different languages. This still happens, and therefore many people are multi-lingual - they speak several languages. This often results in multi-lingual conversation. Sometimes one person will carry on their side of the conversation in Warumungu, while the other person talks only in Warlmanpa. Other times a person will use English, Warumungu, Alyawarra, Warlmanpa, and Warlpiri in a conversation, especially if different people take part in it. The close contact between speakers of different languages shows in shared words. For example, many words for family-terms are shared by different languages. As Valda Napururla Shannon points out, Eastern Warlpiri ("wakirti" Warlpiri (1)) shares words with its neighbours, Warumungu and Warlmanpa, while Western Warlpiri shares words with its neighbours. Pintupi, Gurindji, Anmatyerre etc. In Eastern Warlpiri, Warlmanpa and Warumungu the word "kangkuya" is used for 'father's father' (or 'father's father's brother' or 'father's father's sister'). -
Outstations Through Art: Acrylic Painting, Self‑Determination and the History of the Homelands Movement in the Pintupi‑Ngaanyatjarra Lands Peter Thorley1
8 Outstations through art: Acrylic painting, self-determination and the history of the homelands movement in the Pintupi-Ngaanyatjarra Lands Peter Thorley1 Australia in the 1970s saw sweeping changes in Indigenous policy. In its first year of what was to become a famously short term in office, the Whitlam Government began to undertake a range of initiatives to implement its new policy agenda, which became known as ‘self-determination’. The broad aim of the policy was to allow Indigenous Australians to exercise greater choice over their lives. One of the new measures was the decentralisation of government-run settlements in favour of smaller, less aggregated Indigenous-run communities or outstations. Under the previous policy of ‘assimilation’, living arrangements in government settlements in the Northern Territory were strictly managed 1 I would like to acknowledge the people of the communities of Kintore, Kiwirrkura and Warakurna for their assistance and guidance. I am especially grateful to Monica Nangala Robinson and Irene Nangala, with whom I have worked closely over a number of years and who provided insights and helped facilitate consultations. I have particularly enjoyed the camaraderie of my fellow researchers Fred Myers and Pip Deveson since we began working on an edited version of Ian Dunlop’s 1974 Yayayi footage for the National Museum of Australia’s Papunya Painting exhibition in 2007. Staff of Papunya Tula Artists, Warakurna Artists, Warlungurru School and the Western Desert Nganampa Walytja Palyantjaku Tutaku (Purple House) have been welcoming and have given generously of their time and resources. This chapter has benefited from discussion with Bob Edwards, Vivien Johnson and Kate Khan. -

Dreamings and Connections to Country
DREAMINGS AND CONNECTIONS TO COUNTRY AMONG THE NGAANYATJARRA AND PINTUPI OF THE AUSTRALIAN WESTERN DESERT. VOLUME 2: RESTRICTED ACCESS SECTION (This volume contains Appendix 2A, to which access is restricted for cultural reasons) Permission required from author before viewing. David W. Brooks Part of: A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Archaeology and Anthropology at the Australian National University April 2011 RESTRICTED MATERIAL Marlu / Red Kangaroo Dreaming Ngaanyatjarra people say that Marlu is their most important Dreaming. They, and the Pintupi of the northern sector, consider it to be the signature Dreaming of both the Ngaanyatjarra and the Pitjantjatjara (as the Tingarri is the signature Dreaming of the Pintupi). Thus I will be dealing with it at some length here. The Marlu tjukurrpa is integral to the physical initiation (embracing both circumcision and subincision) of boys into manhood. The ceremonies (known as yulpurru) that surround circumcision in particular are, by a whole series of indicators, the most significant on the Ngaanyatjarra calendar. It is at yulpurru time that people gather in large numbers and from many places, more so than for any other ceremonies. The ceremonial ‘man- making’ procedures themselves are basically common to the desert as a whole and have been described a number of times in the literature,1 but some recent developments have occurred in the larger organisational structure. In many instances (though not all) the larger organisational structure involves a lengthy ‘return’ journey by the marlulu (pre-initiate or ‘special boy’), under the care of men in the category of ‘brother-in-law’. -
