Abstract:

Akokoid, in this paper, refers to the nine speech forms which are spoken in Akoko North-West Local Government Area of Ondo State in South-Western Nigeria. These speech forms are Arigidi, Erushu, Afa, Oge, Aje, Udo, Oyin, Igashi and Uro. Since the 1970's, scholars have lumped these speech forms together as dialects of the same language without any detailed lexicostatistic investigation. Thus, the major objective of this paper is to determine whether the speech forms are really dialects of the same language through lexicostatistic analysis. Data were collected from 34 informants spread across th

Abstract:

In 1977, Bennett and Sterk published a reclassification of the Niger-Congo languages which has been highly influential. In this paper I try to discover their lexicostatistic method (section 1), then use their published data to do a conventional lexicostatistic subgrouping (section 2), and finally look at their evidence for denying the genetic unity of Narrow Bantu (section 3).

This paper applies statistical techniques for measuring sampling error to lexicostatistics, a field in which error has often been discussed, but only rarely measured. We specifically calculate a margin of error for lexicostatistical comparisons based on Swadesh-type vocabulary lists, and use chi-squared tests to estimate a minimum threshold for when two lexicostatistical measurements will be statistically significantly different from one another. The article includes charts which mathematically unsophisticated scholars can easily use to check margins or error. We use margin of error calculatio

There has been considerable controversy as to when the Apachean Dineh first entered the Greater Southwest. Using a lexicostatistic method, glottochronology, for determining the divergence of Dineh languages, a reassessment of a number of archaeological and anthropological papers, and an appraisal of the genetic affinities among speakers of different language phyla, a good case can be made for a very early entry of the Apachean Dineh into the Greater Southwest. This equates to about A.D. 200 for the Intermontane region of Utah, Idaho, Nevada and parts of California and Arizona and to about A.D.

The findings reveal that 155 out of 200 words (77.5%) are cognates, indicating a strong lexical relationship.

I challenge the recent trend towards honing down Swadesh’s original list to a minimal core.

The results showed that the percentage of kinship in English and German was 20.77% at family level with a separation tim

Abstract:

This article presents the lexicostatistical analysis of Hayu language based on 210 wordlist. There appear different ranges of lexical and phonetic similarities across the five different survey points. Being based on the Mudhajor, the core area of Hayu, exhibits a significant degree of lexical similarity with other points, i.e. Aadmara, Kodre, Wadi and Balingkhola. Such similarity percentages clearly indicate that Hayu spoken in five different points are mutually intelligible to each other. The lexicostatistical data, therefore, show that there is not much lexical variations across the villages

Abstract:

The “language or dialect” problem has remained topical for the Karelian language for a century and a half now. Finnic language specialists from Russia and Finland have not managed to hammer out a common opinion regarding Ludic subdialects: whether they belong to Karelian or form a language of their own. Lately, the long-standing concept of Karelian Proper and Livvi sub-dialects as belonging to the same language has also been questioned. An unresolved issue is the dialectal division of the Karelian language. Seeking to fi nd the lexical criteria for determining the linguistic status of certain

Abstract:

Two computational methods for detecting borrowing among a family of genetically related languages are proposed. One method, based on the detection of branches with negative length in lexicostatistical trees, is shown to work poorly. As we demonstrate, this method is similar to another recently proposed method for detecting borrowing based on skewing in lexicostatistical data. A second method, using character-based classification techniques in common use in the classification of biological taxa, is shown to be more effective. This method allows borrowed characters and the languages among which

This study aims to determine the language kinship in Wooi, Poom, Ansus, and Ambai languages. Data were collected from an interview with the indigenous speakers of Wooi, Poom, Ansus, and Ambai languages. This research employed a historical-comparative linguistics approach, which is the lexicostatistics and glottochronology method. Data were in the form of 200 basic vocabularies and were calculated with lexicostatistics and glottochronology formula. These research findings indicate the 64% language kinship between Wooi and Ansus. That result is the highest percentage of language kinship between

Abstract:

Kakabe, an understudied language in Guinea (Mokole < Western Mande < < Mande < Niger-Congo), is spoken by several ethnic groups, mainly of inferior social status, most of which are bilingual in Pular. There are four dialects of Kakabe: Northern (the Kankalabe area), Central (villages to the north-west, east and southeast of Timbo), Kuru-Maninka and Wure-Kaba Maninka. The Northern and Central dialects are close to each other linguistically, their speakers refer to themselves as “Kakabe”, and these dialects can be regarded as comprising “nuclear Kakabe”; meanwhile, the speakers of Ku

Abstract:

Abstract The Berber languages of North Africa comprise a collection of speech varieties where differences can be found as one moves across a Berber-speaking region, or from oasis to oasis. The varieties have a complex history, with multiple layers of contact, both with non-Berber languages and between Berber languages. These two factors make it difficult to categorise the relationships between Berber varieties, or to use the comparative method to provide a neat history of genetic developments. This paper uses lexicostatistical methods on a large dataset to provide a fine-grained picture of the

Abstract:

The work of historical and comparative linguists has long interested African historians. By classifying languages into families, linguists provide models of their historical development that may point to historical events and processes that occurred among peoples speaking those languages. Once classified, linguists can then reconstruct earlier forms of present languages, thus providing direct evidence of words, their meanings and historical influences in the past. Finally, linguists seek to explain innovations that are revealed in their reconstructions by pointing to a combination of internal
