  • Reconciling Comparative and Internal Reconstruction: The Case of Old Japanese /ti, ri, ni/

  • J. Marshall Unger
  • Journal:
    Language / Volume 76 / Issue 3 / September 2000
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    19 February 2026, pp. 655-681

  • Some Korean-Japanese comparisons involving Japanese coronals complicate the internal reconstruction of pre-Old Japanese. Post-OJ verb forms that end uniformly in, for example, ki have distinct OJ final syllables (ki ≠ kwi) according to the form or paradigm of the verb. This is not true for OJ syllables like ti, but scholars have assumed that pre-OJ *ti ≠ *twi, etc., were distributed in corresponding verb forms in the same way as OJ ki ≠ kwi, etc. Whitman, however, has introduced K-J etymologies requiring that pre-OJ *ti > si, *ri and *ni > i, and hence that all OJ ti < *twi, etc. These conflicting results can be resolved if other pre-OJ sound changes supported by Korean etymologies are properly integrated into the internal reconstruction of Japanese verb paradigms.

  • Tongan determiners and semantic composition

  • Randall Hendrick
  • Journal:
    Language / Volume 81 / Issue 4 / December 2005
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    19 February 2026, pp. 907-926

  • This article describes the syntactic distribution and semantic interpretation of determiners in Tongan (Polynesian). This determiner system is unusual because it contains, in addition to the familiar definite and indefinite, a third contrasting morpheme, labeled ‘semi-definite’ in traditional descriptions. A description of the behavior of these three determiners is offered that makes use of some conceptual tools provided by recent crosslinguistic work in formal semantics.

  • Stems and paradigms

  • James P. Blevins
  • Journal:
    Language / Volume 79 / Issue 4 / December 2003
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    19 February 2026, pp. 737-767

  • This article presents an analysis of the conjugational systems of West Germanic that highlights the central role of two basic stem types and suggests some consequences for the description of inflectional systems in general. The analyses distinguish morphomic stems, which underlie morphosyntactically distinct word forms, from inflectional stems, which realize tense and mood features and provide the input to regular agreement rules. It is argued that the recognition of these stem types simplifies the description of West Germanic conjugations, supports a general realization-based approach, and suggests a reinterpretation of current realizational models.
