‘Give’ Constructions in the Papuan Languages of Timor-Alor-Pantar
This paper describes three-participant 'give' constructions in ten Papuan languages of the Timor-Alor-Pantar (TAP) family. Generally lacking a class of simple ditransitive root verbs, TAP languages express 'give' events by means of biclausal constructions ('take X then give Y'), serial verb constructions ('take X give Y'), or particle-verb constructions originating in serial verb constructions....
متن کاملTowards Nominal Formal Languages
We introduce formal languages over infinite alphabets where words may contain binders. We define the notions of nominal language, nominal monoid, and nominal regular expressions. Moreover, we extend history-dependent automata (HD-automata) by adding stack, and study the recognisability of nominal languages.
متن کاملNominal Classification Gunter Senft
The problem of "classification" is a general problem of life. That classification abilities are necessary for the survival of every organism is an important insight of biology. Human beings classify consciously, unconsciously, and even subconsciously in all situations. When we confront a scientific problem, we try to solve it by first classifying the various parts of the problem. Therefore, the...
متن کاملOn Nominal Regular Languages with Binders
We investigate regular languages on infinite alphabets where words may contain binders on names. To this end, classical regular expressions and automata are extended with binders. We prove the equivalence between finite automata on binders and regular expressions with binders and investigate closure properties and complementation of regular languages with binders.
