Description
Summary:In this paper we describe what corresponds in Xikrín to dependent or subordinate completive clauses in other world languages, focusing on the investigation of its nature ”“ verbal or nominal ”“, as well as on the factors motivating them. We start with a brief introduction about strategies displayed by natural languages to express subordinate clauses, which is followed by a description of the corresponding structures found in Xikrín.
