1 Washo Possession: A Phonology/Morphology Problem Christina Michelle Weaver Created: 10 June 2009 Last Modified: 15 January 2010 Introduction Washo is a moribund language isolate spoken near Lake Tahoe along the California-Nevada border, as shown in figure 1. Figure 1: Washo Map Many thanks to William Jacobsen and Alan Yu for their fieldwork data, which I based this problem on. 1

2 Phoneme Inventory Washo s phoneme inventory is analyzed by Jacobsen (1964, 1996), and updated by Yu (to appear), as in the charts below. Consonants Bilabial Dental Post-alveolar Palato-alveolar Velar Glottal nasal m n ŋ ŋ m plosive p b t d dz k g P ejective p t ts k fricative s S h approximants û w ì l j j Vowels Problem Front Unrounded Central Unrounded Back Rounded High i i: 1 1: u u: Mid e e: o o: Low a a: 1 Paradigms Examine the possessive constructions below. The capitalized abbreviations in glosses are taken from the Leipzig glossing rules. Your task is to do the following three things: 1. List the underlying forms of all morphemes, along with their meanings. 2. Give phonological rules that explain any alternations. 3. Explain the process by which basic possessive constructions are formed in Washo. Relax: Stress will not affect your analysis. 2

4 2 Possessive Phrases Examine the data below and explain how possessive phrases are formed in Washo. Add new morphemes and rules to the lists you have started. t é:liwhu t áŋal diŋá:m dak ómol t ánu degúšup t éliwhu deb 1k 1 dapmó?mo? daŋá:m 3 Sentences Involving Possessors the man s house my son s ball a person s pet the man s grandmother s sister the woman s son Examine the data below and explain how sentences involving possessors are formed in Washo.

5 5 Putting Your Analysis to the Test Now that you have made a list of morphemes and a list of phonological rules to explain their alternations, and you have also explored the way in which Washo creates possessives in various environments, summarize and extend your analysis by doing the following: 1. Generalize what you have discovered in the sections above to explain how possessives are formed in Washo in all environments. 2. How would you say the following in Washo? Give derivations for each. a. the woman s mouth b. my grandmother s sister s son c. the man s pet s ball d. my son s winter clothes e. the man 1 sees his 1 belt References Jacobsen, William H., Jr A Grammar of the Washo Language.
