| Title: | The Laryngeal Gesture in Austronesian Languages: A Terminological Quibble | Authors: | Donohue, M. | Issue Date: | 2003 | Citation: | Donohue, M. (2003). The Laryngeal Gesture in Austronesian Languages: A Terminological Quibble. Oceanic Linguistics 42 (1) : 213-217. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | Hajek & Bowden (Oceanic Linguistics 41:222-224) report on the unusual ejective series in Waimoa, an Austronesian language of East Timor. I argue that, while phonetically odd, it is not a phonological oddity to find ejectives in an Austronesian language, especially not one in the Timor region. A possible historical pathway for the genesis of the ejectives is proposed, & some questions are raised about the acoustic nature of ejectives & about their phonological representation. | Source Title: | Oceanic Linguistics | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/130238 | ISSN: | 00298115 |
