The Complexities of Morphology
This volume explores the multiple aspects of morphological complexity, offering typological, acquisitional, sociolinguistic, and diachronic perspectives. The analyses are based on rich empirical data from a wide range of languages, as well as experimental data from artificial language learning.
Linguistic Morphology in the Mind and Brain
Linguistic Morphology is a unique collection of cutting-edge research in the psycholinguistics of morphology, offering a comprehensive overview of this interdisciplinary field. This book brings together world-leading experts from linguisics, experimental psychology and cognitive neuroscience to examine morphology research from different disciplines. It provides an overview of how the brain deals with complex words; examining how they are easier to read, how they affect our brain dynamics and eye movements, how they mould the acquisition of language and literacy, and how they inform computational models of the linguistic brain. Chapters discuss topics ranging from subconscious visual identification to the high-level processing of sentences, how children make their first steps with complex words through to how proficient adults make lexical identification in less than 40 milliseconds. As a state-of-the-art resource in morphology research, this book will be highly relevant reading for students and researchers of linguistics, psychology and cognitive neuroscience. It will also act as a one-stop shop for experts in the field.
Morphotactics
Drawing on rich data sets, this guide to morphotactics reveals the principles by which a word form's parts are arranged.
A grammar of Choguita Rarámuri: In collaboration with Luz Elena León Ramírez, Sebastián Fuentes Holguín, Bertha Fuentes Loya and other Choguita Rarámuri language experts
This book provides the first comprehensive grammatical description of Choguita Rarámuri, a Uto-Aztecan language spoken in the Sierra Tarahumara, a mountainous range in the northern Mexican state of Chihuahua belonging to the Sierra Madre Occidental. A documentary corpus developed between 2003 and 2018 with Choguita Rarámuri language experts informs the analysis and is the source of the examples presented in this grammar. The documentary corpus, which consists of over 200 hours of recordings of elicited data, narratives, conversations, interviews, and other speech genres, is available in two archival collections housed at the Endangered Languages Archive and at UC Berkeley’s Survey of Cal...
Comparative and Dialectal Approaches to Analogy
This volume brings together specialists in inflectional morphology, historical linguistics, and dialectology to explore the processes, directionality, models, and targets of morphological analogy. The chapters draw on atlas data and historical sources, as well as experimental and computational methods, and present case studies from a range of Romance and Germanic languages. Existing work on inferential relationships, predictability, and complexity has investigated what information speakers can access with respect to the shape of inflectional forms; the studies presented here examine how speakers make use of that information and shed light on the properties and contours of inflectional struct...
Some Descendants of Michael Peters
Family history and genealogical information about the descendants of Michael Peters who was born 26 November 1717 in Germany and immigrated to America sometime prior to the year 1758. His two known children (Michael Jr. and Stephen) were both born in Virginia. Michael Jr. (born ca. 1757) married Hannah Dillman ca. 1777. Stephen Peters (born 12 June 1748) married Molly Dillman ca. 1773. Descendants of Michael Peters Jr. and Stephen Peters lived in Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Tennessee, Missouri, Kansas, Texas, California, Washington and elsewhere.
Some Descendants of John Green (1636-1691) and Ruth Mitchelson (1638-1728) of Cambridge, Massachusetts
"This history was originally initiated as a modest attempt to trace the background of my wife's ancestor, Benjamin Green Sr., who came to Halifax, N.S. in 1749 and was one of the founders of this city. He left many descendants and some of these were of considerable historical interest"--Page 5.
The Open Handbook of Linguistic Data Management
A guide to principles and methods for the management, archiving, sharing, and citing of linguistic research data, especially digital data. "Doing language science" depends on collecting, transcribing, annotating, analyzing, storing, and sharing linguistic research data. This volume offers a guide to linguistic data management, engaging with current trends toward the transformation of linguistics into a more data-driven and reproducible scientific endeavor. It offers both principles and methods, presenting the conceptual foundations of linguistic data management and a series of case studies, each of which demonstrates a concrete application of abstract principles in a current practice. In par...
