{"pk":35026,"title":"Agreement in Thadou","subtitle":null,"abstract":"This paper has discussed the agreement system of Thadou in intransitive, transitive and ditransitive clauses. The 1st person agreement clitic \nng \n(ŋ) occurs post-verbally in intransitives clauses. A transitive verb in Thadou has the same agreement system in affirmative and negative paradigms and may agree with both its A and P or only its A for person and may agree with its A and its P for number. Ditransitive verbs in Thadou occur with both \nhi\n and declarative clause ending in \ne\n. The difference between a ditransitive verb in \nhi\n clause and \ne\n clause is that in the case of \nhi\n clause the verb occurs in stem 2 form, while the in case of the \ne\n clause, the verb occurs in stem 1 form.  The \nhi\n constructions in Thadou are bi-clausal in structure. That is, they are composed of a subordinate clause followed by the main clause. A ditransitive verb in Thadou agrees with its A for person in the embedded clause and with its T in the main clause and may agree with either the A or T for number.","language":"en","license":null,"keywords":[{"word":"agreement"},{"word":"Thadou"},{"word":"Tibeto-Burman"}],"section":"Articles","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4f3049pf","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Pauthang","middle_name":"","last_name":"Haokip","name_suffix":"","institution":"JNU New Delhi","department":"None"}],"date_submitted":"2019-03-21T17:51:45Z","date_accepted":"2019-03-21T17:51:45Z","date_published":"2019-07-01T07:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/himalayanlinguistics/article/35026/galley/26113/download/"}]}
