By in (Linguistics) December 2005 © Gessiane Lobato Picanço, 2005 MUNDURUKÚ: PHONETICS, PHONOLOGY, SYNCHRONY, DIACHRONY by GESSIANE LOBATO PICANÇO B.A. Federal University of Pará, 1999 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Linguistics) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA December 2005 © Gessiane Lobato Picanço, 2005 Abstract This dissertation offers an in-depth investigation of the phonology of Mundurukú, a Tupi language spoken in the Amazonian basin of Brazil, approached from three interrelated perspectives: phonetic, phonological and diachronic. It examines (i) the Mundurukú vowel and consonant inventories, (ii) syllable structure and syllabification, (iii) phonotactic patterns, (iv) nasal harmony, (v) consonant mutation, (vi) tone system and the tone-creaky voice interaction, (vii) reduplication, and (viii) the phonological behavior of various affixes. The phonetic investigation focuses on several acoustic properties of segments (i.e. vowels and consonants), and on phonological contrasts observed in vowels, in particular the oral-nasal and modal-creaky voice oppositions, in addition to tonal distinctions. This is done with a view to determining how and to what extent such phonetic realizations can be imposed on phonological representations. These issues constitute an important part of the study, and are particularly relevant to the discussion about the coarticulatory effects observed in the realization of stops, nasals and laryngeals. The study also offers a formal account of all major phonological processes attested in the language such as syllabification, nasal harmony, consonant mutation, tone, etc. The theoretical model adopted here is Optimality Theory (OT), which defends a representation of the structural design of grammars based upon a ranking of universal constraints. Each chapter contributes to the development of an OT-based grammar of the phonology of Mundurukú by examining new aspects of the language, and by situating them in a large-scale scenario until the OT-grammar is assembled. This result is presented in the last chapter. In search of evidence for the synchronic analysis, and for a better understanding of some uncharacteristic patterns, the study turns to the historical development of the language. Using data from Kuruaya, a sister language to Mundurukú, hypotheses about the stage that preceded both languages, Proto-Mundurukú, are made available. In recovering this stage, and the stage that preceded the modern period, it is possible to recover many of the changes the grammar has undergone and which culminated in the synchronic patterns. Ultimately, this study argues for an approach to synchronic grammars as a composite of universal and language-specific properties, determined by diachronic changes. ii Contents Abstract

Belém, Pará, Brasil IIMax-Planck-Institute for Psycholinguistics. Nijmegen, The Netherlands Abstract: This paper presents a succinct reconstruction of the segmental phonology of Proto-Maweti-Guarani, the hypothetical protolanguage from which modern Mawe, Aweti and the Tupi-Guarani branches of the Tupi linguistic family have evolved. Based on about 300 cognate sets from the authors’ field data (for Mawe and Aweti) and from Mello’s reconstruction (2000) for Proto-Tupi-Guarani (with additional information from other works; and with a few changes concerning certain doubtful features, such as the status of stem-final lenis consonants *r and *ß, and the distinction of *c and *č ), the consonants and vowels of Proto-Maweti-Guarani were reconstructed with the help of the traditional historical-comparative method.

The classification shows greater internal structure than previous ones, but is congruent with them in several ways.1 1 Introduction This paper proposes a new classification of the Tup´ı-Guaran´ı(TG) language family based on the application of computational phylogenetic methods to lexical data from 30 TG languages ∗Affiliations for the authors of this paper are: Chousou-Polydouri, Donnelly, Michael, O'Hagan| University of California, Berkeley; Meira|Museu Paraense Em´ılio Goeldi; Bartolomei, Wauters|Independent Scholar. 1We are indebted to Sebastian Drude, Fran¸coiseRose, Eva-Maria R¨oBler, and Rosa Vallejos, who kindly shared unpublished lexical data from Awet´ı,Emerillon, Ach´e,and Kokama-Kokamilla, respectively.

  • French Creole
    Comparative perspectives on the origins, development and structure of Amazonian (Karipúna) French Creole Jo-Anne S. Ferreira UWI, St. Augustine/SIL International Mervyn C. Alleyne UWI, Mona/UPR, Río Piedras Together known as Kheuól, Karipúna French Creole (KFC) and Galibi-Marwono French Creole (GMFC) are two varieties of Amazonian French Creole (AFC) spoken in the Uaçá area of northern Amapá in Brazil. Th ey are socio-historically and linguistically connected with and considered to be varieties of Guianese French Creole (GFC). Th is paper focuses on the external history of the Brazilian varieties, and compares a selection of linguistic forms across AFC with those of GFC and Antillean varieties, including nasalised vowels, the personal pronouns and the verbal markers. St. Lucian was chosen as representative of the Antillean French creoles of the South-Eastern Caribbean, including Martinique and Trinidad, whose populations have had a history of contact with those of northern Brazil since the sixteenth century. Data have been collected from both fi eld research and archival research into secondary sources. Introduction Th is study focuses on a group of languages/dialects which are spoken in Brazil, French Guiana and the Lesser Antilles, and to a lesser extent on others spoken in other parts of the Americas (as well as in the Indian Ocean). Th is linguistic group is variously referred to as Creole French, French Creole, French-lexicon Creole, French-lexifi er Creole, French Creole languages/dialects, Haitian/Martiniquan/St. Lucian (etc.) Cre- ole, and more recently by the adjective of the name of the country, particularly in the case of the Haiti (cf.

  • On the Geographical Origins and Dispersion of Tupian Languages
    On the geographical origins and dispersion of Tupian Language s Greg Urban University of Pennsylvania Where did the Tupian languages originate? How did they come to occupy the ir historical homelands? José Brochado (1984), filling in a n1ajor lacuna in Lathrap' s ( 1970) scheme, has added a distinctive voice to the long- standing debates surrounding these questions. Iam grateful to Francisco Noelli for bringing him to my attention. As Noelli indicates, Bro chado ' s work provides the foundations for dialog and coope ration between linguistic s, cultural anthropology, and archaeology. It is in the spirit of cooperation and dialogue that I'll make some friendly criticistns of his resea rch , as well as of the linguistic and cultural work pertinent to the question of Tupian origins. My purpo se will be to pinpoint areas for further research that might provide clue s for solv ing the continuing mystery surroundin g the Tupi. I' ll be conce rned prín1arily with two principal hypotheses put forth by Brochado , the first deriving from Donald Lathrap, the second the nove l contribution of Brochado hi1nse]f: GR EG URI3 AN.

Introduction Indigenous languages contribute in an essential way to understand variation in speech production and perception and to identify the constraints that act on natural languages. These constraints play a crucial role to make, to test or to revise hypotheses made in phonology. The paper examines data from Karitana, a Tupi language of Brasil, from Movima, an isolated language from the Bolivian Amazon, and from Rwanda, a Bantu language from Africa. These languages show rather uncommon data. Karitiana has pre and post oralized consonants, e.g.

The former approach is generally restricted to the lexicon. The latter approach focuses mostly on structural characteristics of language. In this paper we present an alternative approach to comparing grammatical systems between languages within a language family, which aims at bringing these two approaches and their results closer to each other. We look at subordination strategies in a sample of Tupian languages, taking constructions as the basic unit of comparison, treating them as form-meaning correspondences.
