Abstract: | In the "pronominalized" languages of Nepal and the rGyalrongic languages of western China verb agreement is part of the verb word. In languages of the far eastern Himalayas and North East India, agreement and tense/aspect occur in a separate word. This correlates with prosodic structure: trochaic in Kiranti and Central Himalayan versus iambic in the NEI languages. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Nepalese Linguistics, v.29, p. 36-41 | Publisher: | Linguistic Society of Nepal | Place of Publication: | Nepal | ISSN: | 0259-1006 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 200499 Linguistics not elsewhere classified | Fields of Research (FoR) 2020: | 470499 Linguistics not elsewhere classified | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 950399 Heritage not elsewhere classified | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2020: | 130401 Assessment of heritage value | Peer Reviewed: | Yes | HERDC Category Description: | C1 Refereed Article in a Scholarly Journal |
