Abstract:
In attempting to understand the history of the morphology of a language or group of languages, we occasionally face a problem of isomorphy, where two or more semantic categories evince the same formal marking. We then must decide which use of that particular form of marking is the oldest, and also determine the possible source and path of development of the marking. In languages with written documents of great time depth this is often not a problem, but in unwritten languages it can be quite difficult. This paper discusses two tools that can be used for this purpose: the concepts of markedness and prototypes. Markedness can tell us which use of the morphological form is cross-linguistically common, while prototype theory can tell us which semantic categories (or members within a semantic category) An earlier version of this paper was presented (with the title “Patterns of isomorphy in the case marking systems of Tibeto-Burman languages”) at the 27th International
