One important aspect of story telling is the way characters are introduced and then moved through the story. Telling a story to a naïve listener places varied demands on a speaker. As the story plot develops, the speaker must set and re-set these parameters for referring to characters, as well as the temporal and spatial parameters of the story. To these cognitive and linguistic tasks is the added social and pragmatic task of monitoring the knowledge and attention states of their listener. The speaker must ensure that the listener can identify the characters, and so must anticipate their listener’s knowledge and on-going mental image of the story. How speakers do this depends on cultural conventions and on the resources of the language(s) they speak. For the child speaker the development narrative competence involves an integration, on-line, of a number of skills, some of which are not fully established until the later childhood years.

  • 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:

  • Executive Summary
    Executive Summary This page has been left blank intentionally EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction Tellus Holdings Ltd (Tellus) propose to construct and operate an underground rock salt mine and complementary storage, recovery and permanent isolation facility (herein referred to as the ‘Chandler Facility’). A rail siding and temporary storage and transfer facility (herein referred to as the ‘Apirnta Facility’) is also proposed. A private haul road linking the two facilities (herein referred to as the ‘Chandler Haul Road’) would be constructed. A private access road (herein referred to as ‘Henbury Access Road’), would be constructed to link the Apirnta Facility with the Stuart Highway. Collectively, the two proposed facilities, the haul and access roads, are referred to as ‘the Proposal’. If approved, the Chandler Facility and the majority of the Chandler Haul Road would be located within a pastoral lease (Maryvale Station). The proposed site approximately 120 kilometres south of Alice Springs and about 25 kilometres by road from the community of Titjikala in the Northern Territory (NT) (refer to Figure ES-1). The Apirnta Facility, Henbury Access Road and a portion of the Chandler Haul Road would be located to the west of the proposed Chandler Facility, also on a pastoral lease (the Henbury Station). Figure ES-1 Location of the Proposal This Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) has been prepared by Tellus to support key approvals under the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act), the NT Mining Management Act (MM Act), the NT Environmental Assessment Act (EA Act) and the NT Waste Management Pollution Control Act (WMPC Act) for the construction, operation, and closure and rehabilitation of the Proposal.

  • Noun Phrase Constituency in Australian Languages: a Typological Study
    Linguistic Typology 2016; 20(1): 25–80 Dana Louagie and Jean-Christophe Verstraete Noun phrase constituency in Australian languages: A typological study DOI 10.1515/lingty-2016-0002 Received July 14, 2015; revised December 17, 2015 Abstract: This article examines whether Australian languages generally lack clear noun phrase structures, as has sometimes been argued in the literature. We break up the notion of NP constituency into a set of concrete typological parameters, and analyse these across a sample of 100 languages, representing a significant portion of diversity on the Australian continent. We show that there is little evidence to support general ideas about the absence of NP structures, and we argue that it makes more sense to typologize languages on the basis of where and how they allow “classic” NP construal, and how this fits into the broader range of construals in the nominal domain. Keywords: Australian languages, constituency, discontinuous constituents, non- configurationality, noun phrase, phrase-marking, phrasehood, syntax, word- marking, word order 1 Introduction It has often been argued that Australian languages show unusual syntactic flexibility in the nominal domain, and may even lack clear noun phrase struc- tures altogether – e. g., in Blake (1983), Heath (1986), Harvey (2001: 112), Evans (2003a: 227–233), Campbell (2006: 57); see also McGregor (1997: 84), Cutfield (2011: 46–50), Nordlinger (2014: 237–241) for overviews and more general dis- cussion of claims to this effect. This idea is based mainly on features
