	mar. 16/03/2021	Placeholders in Komnzo and Bine: a corpus view
	10h-12h
	en ligne
Conférence de : Christian Döhler (ZAS Berlin) dans le cadre DILIS : Atelier Morphosyntaxe
Link to the slides Link to the videoconference room The presentation provides a description of the origin, form, and the various functions the placeholder bäne in Komnzo, a language of Southern New Guinea. I will take an approach in terms of recognitional deixis for the analysis of this element. I include some comments on the placeholder nake in another language of the area, namely Bine. Moreover, I show that certain usages of light verbs, like `do' and `make', can also be analysed as recognitional deixis. The analysis and argumentation is based on the Komnzo and Bine text corpora, which comprise 12 hours and 8 hours of spoken language.
