Abstract:

Abstract This article examines the language legislation of the United States territory of Guam as stated in the Organic Act of Guam (1950) and its legal statutes. The article seeks to offer suggestions about how the quality of this language legislation might be improved. As in a few states in the United States (i.e., Hawaii, Louisiana, and New Mexico), Guam established linguistic laws with provisions that protect the language rights of Chamorro speakers, the native population of Guam, especially in the areas of education and language standardization. In spite of the impressive array of languag

Pp. xii + 423.Sandra Chung's leading contribution to the development of generative analyses of the morphosyntax of Austronesian languages is widely known. This book is the culmination of some two decades of research on Chamorro and is also, as the title suggests, an attempt to embed that body of research within a particular theory of agreement – one which has an explicitly syntactic flavour and which emphasizes the separation of morphology and syntax. Quite apart from the treatment of agr

Abstract:

This article draws attention to three general problems in existing theories and models of contact-induced language change: the problem of autonomous types of change, that of autonomous contact languages, and that of the metaphors used in contact linguistic terminology. Parting from a discussion of these problems and two case studies of contact varieties that heavily challenge existing models of contact-induced change (Chamorro and Zamboangueño-Chabacano), I provide a new and comprehensive model based on the conception of contact-induced change as a continuous space, in which interrelated and i

Abstract:

Abstract It is argued that the traditional belief that the formal expression of the dual in Chamorro is restricted to intransitivity / low transitivity is inadequate since it precludes the possibility of accounting constructions in which the dual is also expressed in combination with transitive verbs. In the empirical part of the study, evidence of the recurrent violations of the intransitivity-based restrictions is discussed. It is shown that the dual is not excluded from transitive predicates. The dual is also firmly established in the realm of transitivity albeit only in the third person. I

Abstract:

Research on sluicing has not yet reached consensus on whether the identity condition on this ellipsis construction is syntactic or semantic. Evidence from Chamorro and English is presented that over and above semantic identity, sluicing requires limited syntactic identity. The limited syntactic identity condition involves argument structure on the one hand and abstract Case on the other. This approach is shown to account for a range of novel and familiar sluicing patterns in the two languages. It also provides new evidence for the idea that the Chamorro antipassive is an implicit argument cons

Abstract:

Abstract Chamorro illustrates how Special Onymic Grammar can be shaped in a given language. It is shown that the rules that determine the morphosyntactic behaviour of common nouns cannot be generalized over onyms. Anthroponyms and toponyms differ markedly from common nouns within the NP and beyond. In addition, there are also structural differences that separate anthroponyms from toponyms so that it makes sense to speak of Special Anthroponymic Grammar as opposed to Special Toponymic Grammar. These differences come to the fore in the domain of pre-nominal markers, the formal distinction of cas

Abstract:

Globalization asserts increasing pressure on marginalized cultures and languages. While faced with the pragmatic, often economic, need to communicate via global languages such as English and Chinese, communities of non-dominant language users struggle to maintain or reestablish their own cultural and linguistic practices. This thesis considers three areas of theory to further inquiry into how revitalization contexts may operate within an increasingly borderless world. The specific focus is the CHamoru/Chamorro revitalization context on Guåhan /Guam. First, readers enter the discussion th

Abstract:

Abstract This chapter is about Chamorro, a non-Oceanic Malayo-Polynesian outlier language spoken on the Mariana Islands in the western Pacific. Unlike the languages of the Oceanic subgroup to which all but two languages in the Pacific belong, Chamorro is lexically, phonologically and morphologically quite conservative. Unusual features include possessive classifiers and grammatical voice selection based on a person-animacy hierarchy. Its subgrouping among the Malayo-Polynesian languages is still debated. It is generally agreed that it is not closely related to the languages of the Philippines,

This chapter first provides an overview as to the history and factors that have contributed to a marked decrease in the number of Chamorro language speakers in Guam. Although recent efforts by the Government of Guam as well as community groups have sought to reverse this decrease, there continues to be a decline in the number of Chamorro speakers, especially amongst the youngest generations. In a contemporary context, the chapter will focus on the acquisition, maintenance, and the attitudes toward the Chamorro language among the young generation in Guam.

Abstract This chapter situates the Malayo-Polynesian (MP) languages within the wider Austronesian language family and their development from Proto-Malayo-Polynesian (PMP). It focuses on the historical development and interrelatedness of the MP languages of Asia and Madagascar as well as two languages spoken in Micronesia, Chamorro, and Palauan. A history of scholarship on MP subgrouping is given, along with more recent developments which are beginning to reshape standard models of MP subgrouping. It also discusses the reconstruction of PMP, the hypothetical common ancestor language from which

Abstract:

Abstract This chapter discusses some of the circumstances and opportunities that arise when doing language processing experiments in the field. We focus on how resource and cultural challenges can shape the design of experiments. Because of the diversity of small-language communities, we avoid generalizing very broadly and instead draw principally on our own experiences working with the Chamorro community in the Northern Marianas Islands.
