Abstract:
Abstract This paper finds origins for the three Kra-Dai tones in the segmental endings of Proto-Southern Austronesian, the parent language of Kra-Dai and Malayo-Polynesian. The Kra-Dai A category originates in sonorant endings (vowels, semi-vowels, nasals, liquids) and in Proto-Austronesian *-H2, reconstructed by Tsuchida (1976); the B category in *-R and in *-X, a hitherto not reconstructed ending reflected as -h in Amis and in the Bisayan language Aklanon; the C category, in Proto-Austronesian *-H1, reconstructed by Tsuchida. The tonal outcomes of *-s and *-S are described. Kra-Dai sonorant

Abstract:
After reviewing recent evidence from related disciplines arguing for an origin of the Austronesian peoples in northeastern China, this paper discusses the Proto-Austronesian and Old Chinese names of the millets, Setaria italica and Panicum miliaceum. Partly based on linguistic data collected in Taiwan by the authors, proposed Proto-Austronesian cognate sets for millet terms are re-evaluated and the Proto-Austronesian sets are identified. The reasons for the earlier confusion among Old Chinese terms for the millets are explained: the Austronesian term for Panicum miliaceum and one of the Chines

Abstract This article revisits the traditional comparisons for K(r)adai and Austronesian ‘hand’, ‘eye’, and ‘bird’. In the case of ‘hand’ it attempts to improve the comparison by offering an unorthodox solution for Proto-K(r)adai reconstruction that, in my opinion, should be *lima, virtually identical to proto-Austronesian. It also provides additional evidence for reconstructing ‘eye’ and ‘bird’ as disyllabic words in K(r)adai, showing that these two were also very close to (with minor differences) to proto-Austronesian. Although these facts alone cannot be used as ultimate proof of K(r)adai a

Abstract:
Austronesian languages are one of the largest language groups in terms of the number of speakers and also its spread area around the world. The Austronesian languages are assumed to be branched, developed and spread extensively as a result of migration from Taiwan to the south, including the Nusantara archipelago. This literature-based paper attempted to examine the spread and development of the Austronesian languages family as well as the problems in reconstructing the Austronesian languages in the Nusantara archipelago. This writing examined the process and form of words’ reconstruction prob

Changes in meaning or semantic changes are the area of diachronic linguistics. The Acehnese language is a derivative of the Proto-Austronesian (PAN) language that has had changes in the meaning of its lexicon that have become the object of this interesting study. It is aimed at explaining examples of changes in meaning in the Acehnese etynom based on four basic types of changes of meaning categorized according to Crowley and Bowern (2010). The data was taken from the English Finder list of Reconstruction in Austronesian Languages reconstructed (Wurm & Wilson, 1975). The selected data from

The use of this language in the three districts of Nias certainly has a kinship relationship either of similar or different.

I adopt the comparative method to compare negative morphemes in Formosan languages and reconstruct Proto-Austronesian negators based on different subgrouping assumptions. A typology of negation in nearly all extant Formosan languages is provided, including Mayrinax (C’uli’) Atayal, Truku Seediq, Tfuya Tsou, Mantauran Rukai, Isbukun Bunun, Northern Paiwan, Nanwang Puyuma, Thao, Sa

Abstract:
Historical linguistics is a key witness in reconstructing the prehistory of Oceania. The extraordinary number of Papuan (non-Austronesian) language families in Near Oceania is consistent with archaeological evidence that this region was settled over 40,000 years ago. One family, Trans New Guinea, is exceptional in its wide distribution, suggesting that its expansion was underpinned by technological advances. Most Austronesian languages of Oceania fall into a single branch of the family, Oceanic, indicating that they stem from a bottleneck in the Austronesian expansion into the southwest Pacifi

Abstract:
In syntactically ergative languages, generally only the nominal with nominative (absolutive) case can undergo A’-extraction operations. Drawing evidence from Austronesian languages, this paper argues that this restriction is a consequence of the nature of nominative case valuation, which forces this feature to be retained on the phase head C rather than being inherited by T. Consequently, only the DP needing to value nominative case can move to [Spec, CP]. This paper also explores the diachronic origin of the extraction restriction in Austronesian languages and proposes that it must be reconstructed to Proto-Austronesian (PAn). But because PAn was an accusative language, objects could not be extracted directly in transitive root clauses, since the subject always valued nominative case in root clauses. Rather, the clause had to be nominalized and genitive case assigned to the subject in order to make [Spec, CP] available as a landing site for another argument.
