Languages of Sulawesi This volume presents texts from eight of the languages spoken by minority groups of South and Central Sulawesi; Balantak, Ledo, Da'a, Uma, Rampi represent the Central Sulawesi stock, while Seko, Duri and Konjo represent the South Sulawesi stock. Balantak belongs to the Saluan subfamily, and is not closely related to the other languages in this volume. Da'a and Ledo are dialects of the large Kaili language in Central Sulawesi. Uma is closely related to the Kaili language. Rampi, which shares some similarities with Uma, also belongs to the Kaili-Pamona language family. Seko seems to be quite distinct from other languages in the area but is officially grouped with the Torajan languages. Duri belongs to the large language family called northern south Sulawesi. While closely related to the Toraja sub-family, it is a member of the Massenrempulu subfamily. Konjo is officially considered a dialect of the large Makasar language. The following map gives the approximate location of these eight languages (page 6). No matter how distinct these languages are, they demonstrate numerous similarities; the data in this volume should be useful for comparative studies. At the same time some of the more closely related languages, such as Da'a and Uma have quite different syntactic structures, showing the divergence which is possible over time or the influences from other languages of the area. 2. Notes on the Texts This volume has been prepared by linguists in Sulawesi working in cooperation with UNHAS-SIL. The volume is presented with the hope that both linguists working with Austronesian languages and anthropologists will find the data valuable. The texts have been selected as those that give some insight into the respective cultures so that students of anthropology may use the texts as a basis for further research. The texts have been given in interlinear format so that linguists can benefit from the morphological analysis. Free translations in both English and Indonesian facilitate the use of these texts by both Indonesian and western linguists. A great deal of effort was put into making the abbreviations used in the morpheme glosses as self-consistent as possible, so that comparative studies can be done more readily. Even so, there are different glosses for some morphemes which appear to actually have the same function in different languages. This is inevitable given the range of analysis and contact with the languages. While a few of the languages represented have been carefully analyzed over a long period of time, others have only had a cursory analysis, resulting in less differentiation or clarification of some of the more obtuse morphemes. Although the abbreviations 2 SULAWESI LANGUAGE TEXTS are all defined in a following list (pages 3-5), some of the terms will not be immediately clear because they represent functions that are not often found in languages of the world. A bibliography is appended so that those interested in further research will be able to read specific articles on a given language. As much .as possible one gloss was given for each unique morpheme; no attempt was made to give a different English meaning if it varied only due to context. The free translation serves to show how a given morpheme (seen as one semantic concept) shows semantic variation in English or Indonesian with different contexts. The free translations neither slavishly follow the original text structure, nor do they represent good discourse style in English or Indonesian. It should be clear that a compromise approach to the free translations was the only option if they were to be at all readable and yet show some structural relation to the original language texts. INTRODUCTION 3 ABBREVIATIONS USED The following list of abbreviations represents notations used to identify affixes or particles in the texts from the eight languages found in this volume.

    Philippine Voice and Split Absolutive Syntax Brodkin

    Philippine Voice and Split Absolutive Syntax Brodkin Philippine Voice and Split Absolutive Syntax Dan Brodkin May 28, 2021 Voice Systems The “Philippine-type” languages of the Philippines, Taiwan, and Indonesia show voice systems. • They have an ‘Agent Voice’ construction, where the external argument is absolutive. av;ext • This contrasts with a ‘Patient Voice’ construction, where the internal argument is. pv; int In many languages, voice also interacts with Ā-extraction and the definiteness of the int. (1) South Sulawesi: the Voice System1 a. Mam-baca=a’ buku. b. U-baca=i iting buku. av-read=1abs book 1eRg-read=3abs that book ‘I’m reading a book.’ ‘I read that book.’ Mandar Across these languages, the absolutive argument (“pivot”) shows systematic hierarchical privilege. This pattern has led to near-consensus that this argument sits above all others in theclause. Guilfoyle et al. 1992; Aldridge 2004; Rackowski & Richards 2005; Hsieh 2020 The Proposal Nevertheless, there is little agreement over the position of the absolutive and the nature of its movement. In today’s talk, I argue for a “High-Licensing” analysis: (Guilfoyle et al., 1992; Brodkin & Royer, 2021) § ¤ 0 ¦The absolutive argument undergoes a-movement to spec,tp as a result of licensing byt . ¥ This view allows these languages to be understood through the lens of “High-Absolutive” syntax. The Licensing Prediction The central insight of this model is that the absolutive argument cannot be licensed belowt0. This logic leads to a systematic prediction about any language which shows this syntax: § ¤ 0 ¦When t is unavailable, such a language must resort to a special strategy to license arguments.

  • Some Preliminary Observations on Prosody and Information Structure in Austronesian Languages of Indonesia and East Timor Nikolaus P

    Some Preliminary Observations on Prosody and Information Structure in Austronesian Languages of Indonesia and East Timor Nikolaus P

    Chapter 11 Some preliminary observations on prosody and information structure in Austronesian languages of Indonesia and East Timor Nikolaus P. Himmelmann Universität zu Köln This chapter provides a brief overview of what is known about prosody and information structure in the Austronesian languages of Indonesia and East Timor. It emphasizes the fact that the prosodic systems found in these languages appear to differ substantially from the better known systems found in languages such as English and German and finds thattodate there is little evidence that prosody plays a major role in conveying information-structural distinctions. Of major import in this regard appears to be the fact that many Austronesian languages in the area appear to lack lexical stress as well as lexical tone. Consequently, intonational phrases lack (postlexical) pitch accents, the tonal inventory being restricted to a smallish number of edge tone combinations on the intonational phrase level plus a single boundary tone on the level of intermediate phrases. The chapter concludes with a brief discussion of a major exception to these generalisations, i.e. the group of (Austronesian) West New Guinea languages that show a bewildering variety of tonal and stress-related distinctions. 1 Introduction Apart from some varieties of Malay, the prosodic systems found in Indonesian and East Timorese languages have not been investigated in detail to date. Still, from what is known from Malayic varieties1 and the few studies on other languages that have been published (in particular, Stoel 2006 on Javanese and Himmelmann 2010 on Waima’a) it seems likely that prosodic prominence does not have a major role to play in marking information- structural categories.
  • South Sulawesi Pronominal Clitics: Form, Function and Position

    South Sulawesi Pronominal Clitics: Form, Function and Position

    Studies in Philippine Languages and Cultures Volume 17 (2008), 13–65 South Sulawesi pronominal clitics: form, function and position Daniel Kaufman Cornell University The present article ofers the most comprehensive overview to date of pronominal clitic syntax in the South Sulawesi (SSul) family (Malayo- Polynesian, Austronesian). The fundamental aspects of SSul morphosyntax are explained with special attention given to case and agreement phenomena. The SSul system is then compared to Philippine-type languages, which are known to be more morphosyntactically conservative, and thus may represent the type of system from which Proto-SSul descended. A full array of syntactic environments are investigated in relation to clitic placement and the results are summarized in the conclusion. The positioning properties of the set A pronouns are of particular interest in that they are similar to Philippine clitics in being second-position elements but dissimilar to them in respecting the contiguity of a potentially large verbal constituent, often resulting in placement several words away from the left edge of their domain. Finally, notes on the form of modern SSul pronoun sets and the reconstruction of Proto-SSul pronouns are presented in the appendix. 1. Background The languages of the South Sulawesi (henceforth SSul) family are spoken on the southwestern peninsula of Sulawesi. Selayar island marks the southern boundary of the SSul area, while the northern boundary is marked by Mamuju on Sulawesi’s west coast, the Sa’dan area further inland, and the environs of Luwuk on the northeastern edge. Outside of Sulawesi, the Tamanic languages of western Kalimantan have been identiied 1 as outliers of the SSul family.

The first trip was made by Tom Laskowske and Kari Valkama September 19 - October 2 to kecamatan Kalumpang and from there up the coast to kota kecamatan Pasangkayu. The second trip was made by Don Barr and Kari Valkama October 18 - 25 to kecamatan Pasangkayu. The third trip was made by Kare Str;mme and Kari Valkama November 6 - 14 to kecamatan Budong-Budong, Kalukku, Mamuju and Tapalang. (The author acknowledges valuable input from survey partner Thomas V. Laskowske to this report, especially in the determination of similarity sets and matrix relations. Maps la and 2a were drawn by Kare J. Str~mme.) The goal of the survey was to complete earlier UNHAS-SIL surveys in the area, i.e. the initial survey by Grimes and Grimes in January 1983, thus bringing the general survey of the whole area to completion. In other words our purpose was to investigate the linguistic situation in kabupaten Mamuju in order to establish language boundaries by comparing lexical similarity between wordlists taken in the area concerned.

ISBN 979-8132-85-8 FOREWORD Earlier issues of Workpapers in Indonesian Languages and Cultures that focused on Sulawesi have dealt with survey results (see volumes 5 and 11). This is the first to be exclusively devoted to the results of phonological analysis in Sulawesi, following the pattern set by the volumes dealing with phonologies of Maluku and Irian Jaya languages. The phonologies of five languages are presented, three of which belong to the lesser known languages of the South Sulawesi group. PUS (Pitu Ulunna Salu) is described by Philip Campbell, Mamasa by DaVId Matti, and Aralle- Tabulahan by Robin McKenzie. Although the phonology of Mamasa appears to be very similar to that of Sa'dan Toraja, the other two languages show remarkable divergences, such as the presence of a sixth vowel, constraints on final nasals (only m in PUS) and the development of geminate consonants intohp,ht, etc.
