A Shona Mbira Performance in Zimbabwe
Heading toward the roundhouse after dark, I heard the powerful sound of people playing hosho (large maraca-like shakers) from some distance down the path. As I entered the dimly lit kitchen hut where the ceremony was being held, I could make out people clapping, singing, talking, and drinking; one frail old woman was dancing by herself in the center of the room. Beneath all of this there was st...
متن کاملDefinite and bare noun contrasts in child Catalan
Thirty-three children aged 3–5 were tested for comprehension of definite and bare noun (BN) contrasts in Catalan, a language with bare nouns in direct object but not in subject position. Catalan objects have the same semantics as in English subjects: BNs map to generic and definites into specific referents. Global semantic parameters cannot explain the contrast in this type of language. The tes...
متن کاملSuperlexical vs. lexical prefixes
This paper is intended to justify the classification of all the Russian prefixes into lexical and superlexical. It gives semantic and syntactic criteria for distinguishing between the two groups, including: the idiosyncratic or spatial lexical meaning versus operator-like function; the (in)ability to measure over objects and events; the (in)ability to stack; the (in)ability of a host verb to fo...
متن کاملPalindromic Prefixes and Diophantine Approximation
This text is devoted to simultaneous approximation to ξ and ξ by rational numbers with the same denominator, where ξ is an irrational non-quadratic real number. We focus on an exponent β0(ξ) that measures the regularity of the sequence of all exceptionally precise such approximants. We prove that β0(ξ) takes the same set of values as a combinatorial quantity that measures the abundance of palin...
متن کاملPalindrome Prefixes and Diophantine Approximation
This text is devoted to simultaneous approximation to ξ and ξ by rational numbers with the same denominator, where ξ is a non-quadratic real number. We focus on an exponent β0(ξ) that measures the quality of such approximations (when they are exceptionally good). We prove that β0(ξ) takes the same set of values as a combinatorial quantity that measures the abundance of palindrome prefixes in an...
