Our next meeting will be on November 25 at 10 AM in room 002. Austin will be presenting the paper Jardine et al. 2015. Banyaduq Prestopped Nasals: Synchrony and Diachrony. The paper is attached. A brief description of Austin’s presentation is the following:
Abstract: A salient feature of Borneo’s Land Dayak languages is the presence of prestopped nasals in word-final position: homorganic sequences of an oral stop followed by a nasal closure. I will be discussing Sections 1-4 of Jardine et al. 2015, regarding prestopped nasals in the Land Dayak language Banyaduq and some puzzles they pose. Though the focus of the talk is Banyaduq, I will first motivate the puzzles through a group discussion of prestopped nasal data in the Land Dayak language Simpakng.
