78-550: Is a member of the Western branch of the Nyulnyulan language family . According to R. M. W. Dixon (2002), Bardi was mutually intelligible with the following dialects : Jawi , Nyulnyul , Jabirr-Jabirr , Ngumbarl , and Nimanburru . Ethnologue (206) treats all but Ngumbarl as distinct languages, and this view is supported by those linguists who have worked on the languages, including Claire Bowern and William McGregor. It
104-446: Is also the view of Bardi speakers. There is considerable documentation of the Bardi language, but most of it is unpublished. The earliest work on the language, though now lost, dates from the 1880s. The earliest surviving records are from the start of the 20th century. Gerhardt Laves spent some time on Sunday Island in the late 1920s and recorded textual materials totalling over 1000 pages, and steady documentation has progressed since
130-417: Is by far the least common vowel in the language and bears little functional load. Bardi's syllabic template is (C)V(L)(C) . Bardi does not allow consonant clusters in the onset, except in borrowed words. A cluster of two consonants is allowed in the coda. That said, "within a syllable coda, the only possibility is /l/, /ɻ/ , or /r/ followed by a nasal which is homorganic with the following stop." Stress
156-789: Is demarcative in Bardi. Primary stress in Bardi is always assigned to the first syllable, and all Bardi words receive this stress. In fact, primary stress even falls on the initial syllable of borrowed words that placed the stress elsewhere in their language of origin. Stress alone never distinguishes between minimal pairs in Bardi. Bardi is highly affixal , containing both derivational and inflectional affixation. There are four major word classes in Bardi: nominals, verb roots, preverbs, and particles. These classes are defined according to their abilities to combine with other words and to inflect. Regarding their positioning across these two (i.e., distributional and inflectional) measures, "[a]ll four of

234-405: Is distinct from the morpho-phonological processes involving lenition that occur in the morphological system, such as in allomorphs of the locative case ( -goon ~ -yoon ~ -oon ). Bardi has an unusual vowel inventory. It is a seven vowel system, with long and short peripheral (/i/, /a/, and /u/) vowels and /o/, which is short. Short vowels are used much more frequently than long vowels, excepting /o/,

#1732765254397312-489: The 21st century, but efforts are being made to teach the Bardi language and culture at at least one school. Before European settlement at the end of the 19th century, the population size is estimated to have been ~1500 people, with essentially the entire community speaking Bardi. Since then, the ethnic population has increased in number (now contains about 2000 people), but is essentially monolingual in English today (with only

364-445: The absolutive case are unmarked. When the applicative construction promotes them to the object of the verb, instrumental nouns can receive case agreement on the verb, thus satisfying the primary condition of a core case. In these instances, the instrumental case marker ( -nga or -na ) denotes that the noun is the instrument or the means by which an action was carried out. Instruments are always inanimate; if animate, they would be given
390-467: The cardinal vowel. Finally, /o/ is most often realised as [ɔ]. While otherwise quite similar to that of languages in the more well-known Pama-Nyungan family , the orthography of Bardi is exceptional in its transcribing of both high-back vowels as 'oo' rather than 'u'. This convention is typical of other Kimberly languages, such as Gooniyandi and Miriwoong . While one might suspect that this orthographic depth could lead to communication difficulties, /uː/
416-411: The ergative (or comitative) case instead. Bardi also uses local case markers to indicate spatial relations involving location, motion, and direction. The suffixes used to denote these local cases are listed in the table below. Verbal morphology in Bardi is "quasi-agglutinative," in that much of the morphology is able to be divided into segments. It is also entirely inflectional , with the exception of
442-413: The ergative case when they are the subject of a transitive verb. Ergative subjects do not need to be animate or personal; for example, gaara meaning 'the sea,' can receive the ergative case marker nim and thus become gaaranim . Nouns in Bardi take the absolutive case when they appear as the subject of an intransitive verb or the object (direct or indirect) of a transitive verb. Nouns receiving
468-490: The late 1960s. In 2012, an extensive reference grammar was written by Claire Bowern and published by De Gruyter Mouton . Bardi contains 17 phonemes in its consonant inventory, across five places of articulation and five manners of articulation . There are no fricatives or voicing distinctions among Bardi consonants. The plosives are voiceless word-initially and -finally, and usually voiced elsewhere. Intervocalically, plosives are often weakly lenited to approximants. This
494-411: The least common vowel quality in Bardi. As expected for languages with rather few vowel qualities, allophonic variation is extensive, though long vowels have a more stable realization. /a/ is probably the most variable vowel, ranging from [æ] to [ɒ], from entirely front to back. /aː/ is more consistently realised as [ɑː]. /i/, /u/, /uː/ are usually a more lower [ɪ] and [ʊ~o(ː)], with /iː/ being closer to
520-503: The north' Nouns in Bardi also often inflect for case. Case marking is phrasal, as it always occurs on the initial element of the noun phrase. There is no additional way in which case is represented in the phrase (Bardi is unusual in this respect). Core cases are those able to trigger agreement marking on the verb; thus, core case markers indicate argument relations within a clause. In Bardi there are three core cases: ergative , absolutive , and instrumental . Nouns in Bardi are marked by
546-712: The noun jawal , meaning ‘story.’ Despite its frequency of use, -iidi is not productive and can only be applied to certain nouns (though there does not appear any systematicity governing which nouns do and do not permit its application). In addition to -iidi , there are about 20 other nominal derivational morphemes in Bardi. Several are displayed in the table below. ool-al water- INDF ool-al water-INDF 'watery stuff, icemelt' nyoongoorl-jin old person- GROUP nyoongoorl-jin {old person}- GROUP 'old people' iil-arda dog- PRIV iil-arda dog-PRIV 'without dogs' ardi-ngarra north- WARDS ardi-ngarra north- WARDS 'to

598-399: The primary word classes can be distinguished on distributional criteria and three of the four can be distinguished on inflectional criteria as well." Nouns can only take a single derivational suffix as Bardi does not allow for multiple derivation. Little of Bardi's derivational morphology is productive or involves a change in word class . The most common derivational morpheme in Bardi is
