• W2801036719 abstract "Author(s): Stark, Tammy Elizabeth | Advisor(s): Michael, Lev D; Mikkelsen, Line HL | Abstract: This dissertation examines morphosyntactic variation and change in the modern CaribbeanNorthern Arawak (CNA) languages in the domains of argument-marking and alignment.CNA is the northernmost group of the Arawak language family, whose members are spokenprimarily in South America. The modern CNA languages include Garifuna, Lokono, A~nun,and Wayuu, spoken on the Caribbean coasts of Central and South America. Members of thesubgroup that are currently not spoken include Shebayo, Island Carib, and Taino.Chapter 1 of this work introduces the CNA languages and provides background informationabout current language vitality and documentation status for each CNA language. In thischapter, I also discuss internal subgrouping for the branch, incorporating the results of alexical phylogenetic study I carried out for the CNA languages. I then compare the results toearlier classications of the language family and show that my novel subgrouping proposal iswell supported. Subsequently, I examine comparative morphological evidence for subgroupingand nd it to be compatible with the structure I propose. The chapter concludes with adescription of argument marking and active-stative alignment in the CNA languages.Chapter 2 examines a process of alignment change attested in the CNA languages that hasbeen facilitated by the reanalysis of a suxal subject nominalizer employed in relative clausesas agreement morphology encoding a syntactic subject. Properties of the modern subjectconstruction are related to properties of nominalizations cross-linguistically. Nominalizedverbs in predicate position in non-verbal predicate constructions are proposed as a bridgingconstruction in this reanalysis, and a suxal paradigm involved in encoding objects andstative subjects is shown to have provided an analogical template for the reanalysis of thenominalizer as agreement morphology for at least Garifuna. Finally, I demonstrate thatthe sole CNA language that does not exhibit the suxal subject agreement construction,Lokono, exhibits properties that rule out the diachronic pathway I propose for the otherCNA languages | only those CNA languages that lack a copula and exhibit verb initialitydeveloped the suxal person marking morphology examined here.Chapter 3 investigates a shift in lexical category from adposition to auxiliary in two NorthernCaribbean Arawak languages, Wayuu and Garifuna. While the emergent auxiliaries bearstriking similarities in terms of distribution and argument marking | both occur post-verballyand carry prexal and suxal verbal agreement morphology | I argue that the innovation isnot joint, but independent. I draw on comparative evidence from the adpositional systemsof the other modern CNA languages to support my proposal. While Garifuna and Wayuushare a similar typological prole, comparative morphological evidence, along with extantknowledge of relatedness for the family, generally, suggests they do not form a subgroupindependent of the other Caribbean Northern Arawak languages, providing support for ananalysis where each language independently innovated its auxiliary system. As in the case ofthe development of suxal person morphology, properties of proto-CNA appear to have madesuch a development available. The change from adposition to auxiliary is typologically rare,and has not been previously described or analyzed in the literature on grammaticalization. Iargue here that insubordination and analogy are the formal mechanisms that allowed for thischange in the CNA languages.Chapter 4 concludes and discusses avenues for future comparative morphosyntactic researchinvolving the CNA languages." @default.
