Verbal paradigms in Gorwaa: phonological analysis in service of a unified account

Domaine:

Hôte:avatar
Gorwaa verbs are traditionally described as falling into one of six inflectional paradigms. This talk provides a phonological analysis and proposes a process of sonorisation/desonorisation to reduce the number of inflectional paradigms. Note: This talk has not gone through a process of peer review, and findings should therefore be treated as preliminary and subject to change. Acknowledgement and citation: Harvey, Andrew. 2020.
