Item A Morphological Analysis of the Konso Verb with Emphasis on the Inflection of the Verb /(2014-05-16) Aylate, GalloThis linguistic project focuses on a Morphological Analysis of the Konso verb within the tense system of the language. The project has eight chapters which deal with particular topics. The first chapter deals with general introduction about the people, the syntactic typology of the language, and the scope of the research. Chapter two focuses on an over view of the verb system of the language. Chapter three gives a brief introduction on the relationship between the tense and aspect of the language. Chapter four begins the analysis of the inflection of the verb in context of the past tense. Chapter five continues to deal with the analysis verb in the context of the present tense. Chapter six continues with the analysis of how the verbs are inflected in the future tense. In chapter seven, we briefly see how the verbs are inflected in relative clauses. In doing this analysis, tables are used to summarize the discussions. Of course, some examples are given to see the functions of tenses in the language. Finally, chapter eight summarizes what has been discussed so far.Item Moro Verb Morphology(2014-05-16) Barnard, Timothy DavidThis paper describes and analyses many features of both the inflectional and the derivational verb morphology of Moro, a Kordofanian language spoken in the Nuba Mountains of central Sudan.
