Tense and Aspect Markers in Fijian variety of Kubulau
Date:
This was a joint presentation with colleague Shirley Gabber at the 12th Conference on Oceanic Linguistics (COOL). The data used in this talk came out of a remote Field Methods course at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa in the Spring 2021 semester. Drawing on existing linguistic literature on Fijian languages, as well as elicitation sessions with a native Kubulau Fijian speaker, we described tense/aspect markers in Kubulau Fijian compared with those in Standard Fijian. Some materials from the the Field Methods course can be found here.
