Abstract

Abstract:Languages of the Uto-Aztecan family are notable for typically having multiple ways to indicate predicative possession, as well as for having a variety of mechanisms for deriving verbs from nouns (i.e., creating denominal verbs). Five morphemes can be reconstructed for Proto—Uto-Aztecan that gave rise to specific denominal verb-creating affixes (most usually, suffixes) that mark predicative possession across the family. The reconstructed suffixes are *-ka 'have (alienable)', *-pV 'have (inalienable)', *-ɨ, a postposition (most likely a locative), *-tu 'active possession' ('get', 'acquire'), and *-wa, a marker of attributive possession ('possessed thing').

乌托-阿兹特克语中占有的派生动词:重构与变化之路

摘要:乌托-阿兹特克语系的语言以具有多种表示谓语占有的方式以及从名词派生动词的多种机制(即创造名动词)而闻名。原始乌托-阿兹特克语可以重建五个语素，它们产生了特定的名词性动词词缀(通常是后缀)，标志着整个家族的谓语占有。重组后的后缀是*-ka“have(让与)”，*- pv“have(不可让与)”，*-tu“主动占有”(“得到”，“获得”)，*-wa，定语占有的标记(“占有的东西”)。

期刊介绍： Anthropological Linguistics, a quarterly journal founded in 1959, provides a forum for the full range of scholarly study of the languages and cultures of the peoples of the world, especially the native peoples of the Americas. Embracing the field of language and culture broadly defined, the editors welcome articles and research reports addressing cultural, historical, and philological aspects of linguistic study, including analyses of texts and discourse; studies of semantic systems and cultural classifications; onomastic studies; ethnohistorical papers that draw significantly on linguistic data; studies of linguistic prehistory and genetic classification.
