چکیده
This study uses phylogenetic methods adopted from computational biology in order to reconstruct features of Proto-Indo-European morphosyntax. We estimate the probability presence typological on assumption that these change according a stochastic process governed by evolutionary transition rates between them. compare probabilities previous reconstructions morphosyntax, which use either comparative-historical method or implicational typology. find our reconstruction yields strong support for canonical model (synthetic, nominative-accusative, headfinal) protolanguage and low any alternative model. Observing dynamics data set, we conclude morphological have slower change, whereas syntactic traits faster. Additionally, more frequent, unmarked grammatical hierarchies when compared less marked ones, indicates universal patterns economy frequency impact language within family

متن کاملReconstructing the history of marriage strategies in Indo-European-speaking societies: monogamy and polygyny.
Explanations for the emergence of monogamous marriage have focused on the cross-cultural distribution of marriage strategies, thus failing to account for their history. In this paper I reconstruct the pattern of change in marriage strategies in the history of societies speaking Indo-European languages, using cross-cultural data in the systematic and explicitly historical framework afforded by t...
