Detail Argument encoding and voice in Kadorih of Central Kalimantan   Oleh:  Kazuya, Inagaki Jenis: Article from Books Dalam koleksi: NUSA: Linguistics Studies of Language in and around Indonesia Volume 54: Voice Variation in Austronesian Languages of Indonesia, page 47-65. Fulltext: INAGAKI Kazuya.pdf (314.31KB) Isi artikel In this paper, I examine argument encoding and voice in Kadorih on the basis of text frequency. Kadorih, formerly known as ‘Ot Danum’ and ‘Dohoi’, is an Austronesian language spoken in the upriver region of Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. I conclude that: (i) N- is the actor voice prefix; (ii) -Vn- is the undergoer voice infix; (iii) the two voices are similar in terms of subject ellipsis and their sensitivity to person hierarchy; (iv) they differ from each other in the way they encode pronominal and indefinite arguments (with undergoer voice having special constructions and several functions in discourse); (v) voice affixes are distinct from valency changing affixes in terms of frequency and paraphrasability.
