Abstract:
Le verbe kinyarwanda se constitue sur la racine et se dote des morphemes de la personne et du temps comme prefixes, du morpheme de l'aspect comme desinence verbale et eventuellement de suffixes de la diathese entre la racine et la desinence aspectuelle. La representation du temps s'analyse sur deux niveaux: la visee hypothetique permet la representation du present et du futur (a l'infinitif, au subjonctif et au potentiel), tandis que celle thetique, permet a l'indicatif une representation actualisee du temps dans toutes ses epoques (passe, present, futur) grace notamment a l'acquisition de la

Abstract:
Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2014.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The decision to investigate the lexicographic representation of Kinyarwanda phrasemes has been motivated by two problems. Firstly, the compilers of Kinyarwanda general dictionaries do not take cognisance of the wide-ranging nature of Kinyarwanda phrasemes. As a result, the confusion of different types of phrasemes entails inadequate treatment of phraseology in Kinyarwanda dictionaries. Furthermore, some types of phrasemes are mistakenly left out or under-represented in Kinyarwanda dictionaries due to the fact that the multifac

Abstract:
Cette thèse a pour objectif l'étude sociolinguistique d'un contact mettant en jeu deux langues africaines, le Kinyarwanda et le Giciga. En effet, si au Rwanda en général (ch. 1) la situation sociolinguistique se caractérise, de manière plus manifeste, par la concurrence entre le Kinyarwanda, langue nationale et officielle, et le Français, langue officielle également, dans la région du Ndorwa, qui a sa propre histoire et des problèmes qui lui sont spécifiques (ch. 2), la concurrence entre le Kinyarwanda et le Francais est éclipsée par une concurrence quotidienne beaucoup plus serrée entre le Ki

Toute la population du Rwanda parle une même langue, le kinyarwanda, à la fois langue nationale et officielle.

L’heure n’est pas encore au chaos, mais l’adoption du trilinguisme officielle en 1996 [(kinyarwanda-français-anglais) impose, plus que par le passé, la définition d’une politique de gestion de la situation sociolinguistique du Rwanda, notamment par la détermination claire, par une

Kinyarwanda, like many other languages in contact, has adapted foreign words to meet the needs of its daily life vocabulary and activity. In addition to the lexical need filling, Kinyarwanda borrowed foreign words not only out of need for foreign words but also for prestige. This thesis is based on two hypotheses: Kinyarwanda has borrowed foreign words out of need in various areas; loanwords have been allocated to Kinyarwanda noun class system. This work has discussed and analysed how French and English loanwords have been allocated to key areas of influence and the nominal class system of K

Abstract:
"A syntactic Analysis of Kinyarwanda applicatives" is a study of the syntax of Kinyarwanda which focuses on applicatives. Applicatives are constructions in which the object of a preposition becomes the direct object of the verb through a grammatical function changing process. In such constructions, the verb bears a morpheme referred to as the applicative morpheme which turns an intransitive verb into a transitive verb and a transitive verb into a ditransitive verb. The derived object may perform various thematic functions, including those of instrument, beneficiary, goal, manner, reason, purpo

In the Bantu language Kinyarwanda, the morpheme –ish can be used to mark both causation and the instrumental applicative.

This thesis provides an analysis of Possessor Raising (PR) in a minimalist framework. I examine four languages that exhibit PR, namely Japanese, Korean, Kinyarwanda, and Swahili. I propose that cross-linguistic variation of PR in these languages is captured by the single notion of Multiple Feature-Checking (MFC). In addition to cross-linguistic variation of surface syntax of PR, this thesis also examines a universal feature of PR, namely the relational noun restriction. PR raises an interesting problem with the mapping relation between an argument DP and its grammatical function (GF). A
