Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A STUDY OF THE CUOSUO LANGUAGE provides linguists with valuable data conducive to interlingual comparisons and particularly, to the study of Generative Linguistics that aims to discover Universal Grammar and Language Faculty of human beings. Meanwhile it offers the target readers a glimpse of research done by Chinese linguists in the field of ethnic minority languages and, therefore, does good to linguistic exchanges between China and other countries. The Cuosuo Language is a newly discovered cross-border language yet seriously endangered one spoken by a small community of 549 speakers (2014) who call themselves “Cuosuo”. Making a life by doing farming work with slash-and-burn, this group migrated to and fro a few years back in the tropical jungle areas close to the China-Laos borderline. The Cuosuo people in China live collectively in Mangang Village, Mengla County, Yunnan Province while those in Laos live in Bannanli and Banshalue villages in Wude County, Phongsaly Province. In China they were regarded as “an unidentified minzu subgroup” before 2004 when they were allowed to join either the Hani or Bulang due to linguistic and cultural similarities they share with these two officially identified groups.

Download or read book A STUDY OF THE HLERSU LANGUAGE written by BAI Bibo and published by American Academic Press. This book was released on 2022-12-14 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A STUDY OF THE HLERSU LANGUAGE makes an ontological study of Hlersu, focusing on its phonology, lexicology, and syntax with a brief introduction to the history and customs of the people. This book, as the first monograph that manages an exhaustive record and thorough analysis of the Daxishan vernacular, does something pioneering to expand the research limits of Yiish languages that stand as the bulk in the Tibetan-Burmese Family among the Sino-Tibetan Phylum. This book provides linguists with valuable data conducive to interlingual comparisons and particularly, to the study of Generative Linguistics that aims to discover Universal Grammar and Language Faculty. It also presents the readers with a glimpse of research proceedings done by Chinese linguists in the field of ethnic minority languages and, therefore, does good for exchanges of linguistic research between China and other countries. The Hlersu people, as a significant branch of the Yi ethnic minority, choose to live in alpine districts at elevations more 2,000 meters in Yunnan Province, primarily in the middle counties such as Xinping, Yuanjiang, E’shan, Shuangbai, and Shiping. Its population witnesses an increase to 15,737, according to a 2010 investigation by Professor Xu Xianming, the second author of the original Chinese work.

Book Synopsis The Expression of Possession by : William B. McGregor
Download or read book The Expression of Possession written by William B. McGregor and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2010-01-13 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of nine original articles deals with the expression of possession at various levels of grammar, morphological, phrasal, and syntactic, and from a typologically diverse range of languages (including Germanic, Oceanic, Meso-American, and Australian Aboriginal). There are two main aims. The first is to reveal something of the range of constructions employed cross-linguistically in the expression of possession, and second, to present an understanding of the possessive relation itself as a cognitive and linguistic phenomenon. A guiding principle in the selection of contributors has been to invite linguists whose research, while not necessarily directly dealing with possession, touches on it, and indicates that they are likely to provide fresh perspectives on this well-trodden field. Key features: William McGregor is a well known expert in this fíeld of research Possession is a paradigm for studies on typology, ethnology etc., because a multitude of linguistic and cultural varieties are reflected in this field new series textbook
