A note on PST-level morphosyntax
The development in recent years of Tibeto-Burman (TB) morphosyntax as a rich field of analysis naturally leads to the question of possible assignment of any given feature to the earlier Prato-Sino-Tibetan (PST) level. Three kinds of situation arise in this connection: (I) A and B are alternatives an...

The development in recent years of Tibeto-Burman (TB) morphosyntax as a rich field of analysis naturally leads to the question of possible assignment of any given feature to the earlier Prato-Sino-Tibetan (PST) level. Three kinds of situation arise in this connection: (I) A and B are alternatives and a choice is to be made between them: (2) the feature appears only in Tibeto-Karen or Sinitic (Chinese, Bal) and a choice is to be made between positing absence or retention/loss; (3) the feature appears to be represented In both divisions of the stock and accordingly is to be set up at the PST level. |
