Abstract | The purpose of this paper is to reconstruct the Pre-Proto-Ainu and the Proto-Ainu personal affix systems on the basis of the modem dialects and the Middle Ainu materials available and then to examine ...the historical changes of the Ainu personal affix systems. We speculate from the reconstructions that Pre-Proto-Ainu had only a category of the covert person, namely the inseparable 1st & 2nd person, and of the subject and object case affixes of that person, though there was not any morphologically distinct form of the 1st and 2nd person, and that Proto-Ainu developed a new morphologically separate category of 1st and 2nd person and the indefinite person, and personal affixal dichotomies between transitive and intransitive, between subjective and objective cases in the 1st person, between singular and plural only in the 1st person, between inclusive and exclusive only in the 1st person. The category of the indefinite person developed within Pre-Proto-Ainu from the appearance of the category of the 1st and 2nd person and of the singular and plural, though there may have been some influence from contacts of Pre-Proto-Ainu with such Paleo-Asiatic languages as Yukagir, Koryak, Chukchi, and Nivkh.show more |
