  • Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics &A
    Online Appendix for Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue (2014) Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics & Change Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue The following document lists the languages of the world and their as- signment to the macro-areas described in the main body of the paper as well as the WALS macro-area for languages featured in the WALS 2005 edi- tion. 7160 languages are included, which represent all languages for which we had coordinates available1. Every language is given with its ISO-639-3 code (if it has one) for proper identification. The mapping between WALS languages and ISO-codes was done by using the mapping downloadable from the 2011 online WALS edition2 (because a number of errors in the mapping were corrected for the 2011 edition). 38 WALS languages are not given an ISO-code in the 2011 mapping, 36 of these have been assigned their appropri- ate iso-code based on the sources the WALS lists for the respective language. This was not possible for Tasmanian (WALS-code: tsm) because the WALS mixes data from very different Tasmanian languages and for Kualan (WALS- code: kua) because no source is given. 17 WALS-languages were assigned ISO-codes which have subsequently been retired { these have been assigned their appropriate updated ISO-code. In many cases, a WALS-language is mapped to several ISO-codes. As this has no bearing for the assignment to macro-areas, multiple mappings have been retained. 1There are another couple of hundred languages which are attested but for which our database currently lacks coordinates.

  • A Study of Inpui Adjective
    EUROPEAN ACADEMIC RESEARCH Vol. II, Issue 11/ February 2015 Impact Factor: 3.1 (UIF) ISSN 2286-4822 DRJI Value: 5.9 (B+) www.euacademic.org A Study of Inpui Adjective WAIKHOM PINKY DEVI Resource Person NTS, Central Institute of Indian Languages (CIIL) Abstract The present paper is an attempt to describe the formation and role of adjectives in ‘Inpui’, an endangered and undocumented language of Manipur. The language belongs to the Naga-Bodo sub group of Kabui section of Tibeto-Burman family (cf: Grierson, LSI Volume III, part II). Inpui is an SOV language. Inpui adjectives are derived through the affixation of the attributive derivational prefix -kə to the verbal noun. For example, the adjective ‘kəsinnu’ ‘small’ is derived from the stative verb ‘sin’ ‘be small’ as in ‘kəsinnu naupəŋ’ ‘small boy’ where naupəŋ is ‘boy’. In this language the position of adjectives and nouns are interchangeable i.e. adjectives may appear before or after the nouns they modify as in ‘kəsinnu naupəŋ’ ‘small boy’ or ‘naupəŋ kəsinnu’ ‘small boy’. Five types of adjective will be discussed in this paper viz. Adjective denoting quality (‘kəsanu nausen’ ‘good child’), Adjective denoting quantity (‘bu kəsem’ ‘some rice’); Adjective denoting numerals (‘dip kəni’ ‘two books’), Adjective denoting demonstrative (‘həgə təlathu’ ‘this shirt’) and Adjective of comparison (‘kə-bum-dom-nu ben’ ‘blacker pot’). The paper will also throw a light on the area of prototypical adjectives (size, colour, auditory qualities, shape, taste and tactile) and less prototypical adjectives (evaluative, transitory states and states of living). Adjectives reduplication will also be discussed at the end of the paper.

    Essays on Social Norms and Status of Women in Northeastern India Dissertation zur Erlangung des wirtschafts- und sozialwissenschaftlichen Doktorgrades Doctor rerum politicarum der Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg vorgelegt von Sumantra Pal Heidelberg Juli 2020 To her. Acknowledgements In the first place, I thank the person who motivated me to change my research interest from empirical finance to development economics, Arnab Basu. Without meeting him, I might have never decided to start a PhD in development economics and consequently would have never had the chance to thank my supervisor Stefan Klonner. Special thanks to Radu Carciumaru for facilitating my admission process and pre-departure supports from the New Delhi office of the South Asia Institute. I would like to thank my supervisor Stefan Klonner for the continuous support and constant valuable advices. I deeply appreciate the intensive promotion that his PhD can- didates receive from him. Having had the chance and receiving the financial support to participate and present at workshops and conferences along with the possibility to meet an incredible number of brilliant people is something very special. Beyond academic guid- ance, he generously helped me beyond academic matters. I am also grateful to Christiane Schwieren for valuable advice. In particular, I am happy for having shared all the good and challenging moments of the PhD together with Kafeel Sarwar, my office mate, from the first day on. He made my first few days in Heidelberg much smoother than expected, including receiving me when I reached the alien city late in the evening. He has remained my ‘man friday’ throughout the marathon.

  • Indian Tribal Ornaments; a Hidden Treasure
    IOSR Journal of Environmental Science, Toxicology and Food Technology (IOSR-JESTFT) e-ISSN: 2319-2402,p- ISSN: 2319-2399.Volume 10, Issue 3 Ver. II (Mar. 2016), PP 01-16 www.iosrjournals.org Indian Tribal Ornaments; a Hidden Treasure Dr. Jyoti Dwivedi Department of Environmental Biology A.P.S. University Rewa (M.P.) 486001India Abstract: In early India, people handcrafted jewellery out of natural materials found in abundance all over the country. Seeds, feathers, leaves, berries, fruits, flowers, animal bones, claws and teeth; everything from nature was affectionately gathered and artistically transformed into fine body jewellery. Even today such jewellery is used by the different tribal societies in India. It appears that both men and women of that time wore jewellery made of gold, silver, copper, ivory and precious and semi-precious stones.Jewelry made by India's tribes is attractive in its rustic and earthy way. Using materials available in the local area, it is crafted with the help of primitive tools. The appeal of tribal jewelry lies in its chunky, unrefined appearance. Tribal Jewelry is made by indigenous tribal artisans using local materials to create objects of adornment that contain significant cultural meaning for the wearer. Keywords: Tribal ornaments, Tribal culture, Tribal population , Adornment, Amulets, Practical and Functional uses. I. Introduction Tribal Jewelry is primarily intended to be worn as a form of beautiful adornment also acknowledged as a repository for wealth since antiquity. The tribal people are a heritage to the Indian land. Each tribe has kept its unique style of jewelry intact even now. The original format of jewelry design has been preserved by ethnic tribal.
