A Grammar Of Kagayanen PDF Download

With this issue, the scope of this series is enlarged to include cultural as well as linguistic studies. Articles published in the series are based primarily on field work in Philippine cultural communities but occasionally studies are included on one of the major languages or languages spoken outside the Philippines. The present volume comprises three data-rich studies on Kagayanen by Carol Pebley and two Kagayanen texts. One text was collected and translated by Louise MacGregor and the other by Carol Jean Pebley. The interlinear gloss is supplied by Carol Jean Pebley. The texts illustrate the other three papers and provide checking some of the claims of the author. The sketch of the Kagayanen clause structures provides background information for the other two articles; it is not intended to be a complete grammar sketch. The section on noun phrases in "Kagayanen enclitic demonstratives" also provides background. That article and "Participant reference in Kagayanen" illustrate the importance of discourse studies for understanding the structure and function of clauses and phrases. Throughout the book, personal names in the examples from bibliographical texts have been changed. 13 references. (Author/KFT)
