Abstract

Der vorliegende Band realisiert Teile einer kritischen Edition von Humboldts dreibändigem Opus magnum et postum »Ueber die Kawi-Sprache auf der Insel Java, nebst einer Einleitung über die Verschiedenheit des menschlichen Sprachbaues und ihren Einfluß auf die geistige Entwickelung des Menschengeschlechts«, das Untersuchungen zum Kawi und zum malayischen Sprachstamm enthält. Insbesondere werden dort die Sprachen Javanisch, Malaiisch, Tagalog, Madagassisch, Tongaisch, Tahitisch sowie Maori behandelt und durch Vergleich sowie Typologie deren Einheit in der austronesischen Sprachfamilie nachgewiesen. Die Edition der Vorstudien zeigt Humboldts Weg zu den Südseesprachen sowie zu den Sprachen Südostasiens; sie deutet seine Arbeitsweise, weist Probleme der Edition auf, verweist auf die Quellen und blickt auf die »Verfertigung« philosophischer Gedanken bei der Analyse spezifischer grammatischer Phänomene.

Abstract

The Solomon Islands has a rich linguistic heritage of over 60 languages, many of which have not been described in detail. This first dictionary of Owa, a South East Solomonic Language, contains over 3900 entries, which are typically illustrated with examples of natural language. An overview of the phonology, morphology, and syntax is supplemented by notes on discourse features.

Abstract

Serial verbs and complex predicates have a long history of research, yet there is comparatively little documentation on Oceanic languages. This volume presents new data for further typological studies. While previous research on serial verbs in Oceanic languages was mostly devoted to "core" serial constructions (with non-contiguous sV(o)sV(o) nuclei), this volume contributes a more detailed investigation of the "nuclear" type of complex predicates involving contiguous sVV(o) nuclei. Complex predicates of the form VV may correspond to two different syntactic structures, either co-ranking or hierarchized (head-modifier). Though the VV pattern does evidence a tendency towards structural compression, often entailing the fusion of the argument structures of two or more nuclei, yet it cannot be reduced to cases of co-lexicalization, compounding or grammaticalization. The data also show the "nuclear" type to be compatible with all types of basic word orders (VSO, VOS, SVO, SOV), with no evidence that this results from any word order change. This challenges the claim that "nuclear" serialization correlates with verb-final order, and "core" serialization with verb-medial order.
