This work presents newly-discovered data involving differential marking in the Bantu language Kinande (JD42), which affects three classes: (i) goals and sources; (ii) predicative possession; (iii) external possession.

This paper seeks to clarify the role of affectedness for the marking of direct objects through an analysis of a corpus of Lycopolitan Coptic texts (4th to 5th centuries AD). Whereas previ- ous research has shown the importance of definiteness for the use of the dir

From suffix to prefix to interposition via Differential Object Marking in Egyptian-Coptic

This article argues that Differential Argument Indexing (DOI) and Differential Argument Marking (DOM) constructions in Coptic (Afroasiatic, Egypt) are reanalyzed, resulting in a set of verbs with interposed P-indexes within bipartite stems (DeLancey 1996; Nichols 2
