SIL makes diligent efforts to identify and acknowledge sources and to obtain appropriate permissions wherever possible, acting in good faith and on the best information available at the time of publication. Abstract This research was started in November 2003, initially among the Monpa varieties of Western Arunachal Pradesh, India, and was later expanded to Sherdukpen, Chug, Lish, Bugun and Miji because of their geographical proximity. The fieldwork continued until August 2004 with some gaps in between. The researchers were Binny Abraham, Kara Sako, Isapdaile Zeliang and Elina Kinny. The languages studied in this report, all belonging to the Tibeto-Burman family, have the following ISO codes:1 Tawang Monpa [twm], Tshangla (Dirang) [tsj], Kalaktang Monpa [kkf], Sartang (But Monpa) [onp], Sherdukpen [sdp], Hruso (Aka) [hru], (Aka) Koro [jkr], Chug [cvg], Lish [lsh], Bugun [bgg], and Miji [sjl].

  • The Western Kho-Bwa Languages Form a Small, Coherent Sub-Group of Linguistic Varieties Belonging to the Tibeto-Burman Language Family
    This is the version of the article/chapter accepted for publication in Die Sprache, 52 (2). pp. 141-176, published by Harrassowitz. Accepted version downloaded from SOAS Research Online: http://eprints.soas.ac.uk/34574 THE DUHUMBI PERSPECTIVE ON PROTO-WESTERN KHO-BWA RHYMES ABSTRACT The Western Kho-Bwa languages form a small, coherent sub-group of linguistic varieties belonging to the Tibeto-Burman language family. They are spoken in West Kameng district of the state of Arunachal Pradesh in Northeast India. The total Western Kho-Bwa speaker population is less than 6,000 and all varieties are endangered. This paper presents almost 100 sound correspondences, mainly between the two Western Kho- Bwa varieties Duhumbi and Khoitam, with additional evidence from other Western Kho-Bwa varieties and other Tibeto-Burman languages whenever deemed illustrative. On basis of these sound correspondences, I propose 256 Western Kho-Bwa proto-forms in this paper. The more remarkable feature about the Western Kho-Bwa reconstructions is the degree to which rhymes can actually be reconstructed, which can be largely attributed to the conservative preservation of plosive, nasal, approximant and fricative rhymes in Duhumbi and Khispi and the highly divergent vocal cognates of these rhymes in the Sartang and Sherdukpen varieties. 1. INTRODUCTION This paper presents a concise overview of the main sound correspondences that have been identified for the Western Kho-Bwa rhymes. The Kho-Bwa languages. In 1952, Stonor, basing himself on local sources, reported that two languages spoken by the small communities in the Eastern Himalayas known as ‘Sulung’ and ‘Khowa’ are mutually intelligible.

  • Prediction Experiment for Missing Words in Kho-Bwa Language Data
    Preregistered with the Open Science Framework: https://osf.io/evcbp/ Cite as: Bodt, Hill and List (2018): Prediction experiment for missing words in Kho-Bwa language data. Open Science Framework Preregistration. October, 5, https://osf.io/evcbp/. Prediction experiment for missing words in Western Kho- Bwa language data Timotheus A. Bodt, Nathan W. Hill, and Johann-Mattis List October, 2018 Introduction This is an experiment on the prediction of words that have thus far not been recorded in field work. The basic idea is that, given an existing dataset of cognate words, we can use the correspondence pattern detection algorithm by List (2018) to infer (or “predict”, or “retrodict”) those words in any given doculect that do not yet have a recorded reflex in a given cognate set. During his initial field work on the Western Kho-Bwa languages, Tim Bodt was not able to record a value for every concept for each of the eight varieties yet. Hence, we can now use the existing dataset to predict how potential cognates would have sounded. When Tim Bodt goes back to the field in November, he will try to elicit those missing words. This will give an idea as to how well the prediction algorithm works, but also how well prediction works in historical linguistics in general. Installing and running the code To install the source code of this package, you need lingpy, sinopy, and lingrex, three Python libraries. You can install them with help of PIP, provided you have a fresh Python3 installation on your computer: $ pip install -r pip-requirements.txt To run the code, simply type: $ python predict.py The output will be written to the file predictions.tsv.

  • The Sounds of Tawrã (Digaru-Mishmi), a Tibeto-Burman
    The sounds of Tawrã (Digaru-Mishmi), a Tibeto-Burman language Jonathan P. Evans and Johakso Manyu Institute of Linguistics, Academia Sinica The present study is a phonological analysis of the segments and tones of the Tawrã language (ISO 69-3: mhu; Glottolog: Diga1241), a Sino-Tibetan language spoken in Arunachal Pradesh, India, and in Tibet, China. This paper, the first collaboration between a Tawrã-speaking non-linguist and a non-Tawrã-speak- ing linguist, attempts to clear up some confusion in the existing literature. For example, previous studies did not note that stop codas /-p, -k/ are in free vari- ation with glides [-w, -j, ɰ], and that the morpheme, rather than the syllable, is the tone-bearing unit. Acoustic analyses provide justification for the phonemic representation of the vowels and the tones. Finally, the paper is designed to in- troduce Tawrã speakers to the recently standardized (2020) orthography, and to show how the letters and letter combinations function together as a system. Keywords: Taraon, Digaru, Mishmi, phonology, tone, Arunachal Pradesh 1. Introduction Tawrã (ISO 69-3: mhu; Glottolog: Diga 1241) is a Sino-Tibetan language spoken in Arunachal Pradesh, India, as well as in Tibet, China, and possibly in Kachin State, Burma (Figure 1). The language name Tawrã (also spelled Taraon (Luce 1944; Sastry 1984a, 1984b; Pulu 1991; Chakravarty 1963)) is the preferred autonym (Matisoff 1996). Non-Tawrã speakers often use the term Digaru/Digaro (Needham 1978, Konow 1902, Benedict 1972), a name coming from that of the Digaru River. This river roughly forms the western extent of the area traditionally inhabited by the Tawrã speaking population, and probably constituted the location of contact with the people of the plains, who then extended the name of the river to identify the people they met there (Chakravarty 1963: ii).
