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...
The Semantics of Clause Linking
This book is a cross-linguistic examination of the different grammatical means languages employ to represent a general set of semantic relations between clauses. The investigations focus on ways of combining clauses other than through relative and complement clause constructions. These span a number of types of semantic linking. Three, for example, describe varieties of consequence - cause, result, and purpose - which may be illustrated in English by, respectively: Because John has been studying German for years, he speaks it well; John has been studying German for years, thus he speaks it well; and John has been studying German for years, in order that he should speak it well. Syntactic des...
Language Isolates I: Aikanã to Kandozi-Shapra
This handbook provides the first broadly comprehensive, typologically-informed descriptive overview of the languages of Greater Amazonia. Organized by genealogical units, the chapters provide empirically rich descriptions of the phonology and grammar of all Amazonian families and isolates for which data and descriptions exist. Volume 1 focuses on the many isolates of the region – those languages for which no extant sisters can be identified.
Diccionario Iquito – castellano
Este diccionario documenta el léxico del iquito, una lengua indígena del norte de la Amazonía peruana. El iquito es un miembro de la familia lingüística záparo, cuyos otros miembros incluyen el andoa, al arabela, y el sápara (también conocido como záparo). El iquito se hablaba antiguamente en una extensa región entre los ríos Tigre y Napo, en el que ahora es el departamento de Loreto, Perú, pero en la actualidad solo lo habla un número reducido de ancianos de comunidades del río Pintuyacu y sus cercanías, cuatro de los cuales. Jaime Pacaya Inuma, Ema Llona Yareja, Hermenegildo Díaz Cuyasa y Ligia Inuma Inuma, contribuyeron al amplio conocimiento lingüístico, cultural e histórico que se documenta en este diccionario. Este volumen sirve de registro exhaustivo del léxico iquito, así como una descripción de los aspectos de la cultura iquito que son relevantes para comprender los usos y los significados de las palabras que han sido documentadas. Se ofrecen numerosos ejemplos del uso de estas palabras, junto con la descripción de sus propiedades gramaticales. También se ofrece un glosario de términos clave del castellano loretano que aparecen en las definiciones.

Standard Negation
This book is the first cross-linguistic study of clausal negation based on an extensive and systematic language sample. Methodological issues, especially sampling, are discussed at length. Standard negation – the basic structural means languages have for negating declarative verbal main clauses – is typologized from a new perspective, paying attention to structural differences between affirmatives and negatives. In symmetric negation affirmative and negative structures show no differences except for the presence of the negative marker(s), whereas in asymmetric negation there are further structural differences, i.e. asymmetries. A distinction is made between constructional and paradigmati...
