Venezuela is home to 10 of these Cariban languages: Japreria, Kapón (Akawayo), Kari’ña, Makushi, Mapoyo, Eñe’pa (Panare), Pemón (Arekuna, Kamarakoto, Taurepan), Yawarana, Ye’kwana/De’kwana and Yukpa. The Cariban languages of Venezuela are among the least described and (not coincidentally) most resistant to sub-classification within the family. Despite the lack of reliable published lexical data, Gildea (2003) proposed that a genetic unit called the Venezuelan Branch, containing 10 languages, could be identified on the basis of three phonological innovations, one lexical innovation, and seven grammatical innovations that were shared to varying degrees by only these languages, all spoken currently or historically in Venezuela. Many of these features were not attested in multiple languages, but we cannot know if some of the languages actually lack these features or if they have the features, as long as they have not been described in the necessary detail. </WRAP> <WRAP half column justify> Mattéi-Muller (2002, 2003) responded immediately, testing Gildea’s proposal against additional data from unpublished field work she had done with several of these languages. She contributed some revisions to the hypothesis, adding two more languages to the core group of the branch and arguing for the exclusion of Ye’kwana, leaving nine languages inside the branch. Since that time, further testing of the hypothesis has only been carried out for Ye’kwana, for which Cáceres (2011) found that, instead of sharing just one just one of the 11 pertinent criteria for classification in the Venezuelan Branch, Ye'kwana shares five. These findings shake up the picture regarding the Venezuelan Branch, illustrating the importance of direct descriptive work on the remaining Cariban languages of Venezuela, and hence, the importance of gathering a collaborative group of linguists who are currently working on descriptive projects. </WRAP> </WRAP> \\ \\ ====== Programme ====== We take two days for each participant to give a talk (in Spanish preferably but French, Portuguese or English work too), on some aspect of lexicon or morphosyntax in the language(s) they work on. For the remaining three days, we will conduct a series of comparative Cariban workshops (in Spanish), focusing first on lexicon, then morphosyntax, and then on the Toolbox program, which makes it easier to analyze (i.e. gloss and tag) and find language examples. \\ \\ ==== Accueil ==== \\ ^ Jour ^ Horaires ^ Description ^ Intervenants ^ ^ Lundi 11 | 9:00-9:30 | Présentation des objectifs de la conférence | Spike Gildea & Natalia Cáceres | ^ Lundi 11 | 9:30-10:30 | Présentation des intervenants | | ---- ==== Session comparative Caribe ==== \\ ^ Jour ^ Horaires ^ Description ^ Intervenants ^ ^ Lundi 11 | 11:00-11:45 | [[comparative:currentPerspectives-Gildea|15 years later: Current Perspectives on the Venezuelan Branch Hypothesis]] | Spike Gildea | ^ Lundi 11 | 11:45-12:30 | [[comparative:clasificacioncaribe-meira|Una primera clasificación filogenética de la familia caribe]] | Sérgio Meira | ^ Lundi 11 | 14:00-14:45 | [[comparative:mapoyo-granadillo|¿Puede considerarse el mapoyo como parte de la rama Venezolana de lenguas Caribes y del macro-grupo tamanaku-panare-pemong?]] | Tania Granadillo | ^ Lundi 11 | 14:45-15:30 | [[comparative:pemon-alvarez|El pemón y la rama venezolana de lenguas caribes]] | José Álvarez | ^ Lundi 11 | 16:00-16:45 | La pluralidad en Panare | Marie-Claude Mattéi Muller | ^ Lundi 11 | 16:45-17:30 | [[comparative:yabarana-gonzalezandgranadillo|Nuevos datos sobre la lengua yabarana]] | Jeyni González & Tania Granadillo | ^ Mardi 12 | 9:00-9:45 | [[comparative:prefijoy-oquendo|El prefijo *y- en el proto-caribe y su cambio de acuerdo a la categoría en el lexicon]] | Luis Oquendo | ^ Mardi 12 | 9:45-10:30 | [[comparative:nominalizadortjapo-caceres|Construcciones basadas en el nominalizador absolutivo *tjapô]] | Natalia Cáceres | ---- ==== Session sur la documentation et la revitalisation ==== \\ ^ Jour ^ Horaires ^ Description ^ Intervenants ^ ^ Mardi 12 | 11:00-11:45 | [[documentation:kamarakotoDocumentation-FugaruAndFigueroa|Kamarakoto Documentation Project]] | Ioana Fugaru & Ramón Rodríguez Figueroa | ^ Mardi 12 | 11:45-12:30 | [[documentation:sequentialtoconcurrentdocumentation-sapien|From sequential to concurrent: reframing documentation and revitalization]] | Racquel Sapien | ^ Mardi 12 | 14:00-14:45 | [[documentation:revitalizacionmapoyo-medina|Proyectos de revitalización de la lengua mapoyo]] | Francia Medina | ^ Mardi 12 | 14:45-15:30 | [[documentation:revitalizacionwayuunaiki-villamizarandoquendo|Revitalización lingüística, estudio de caso, La Ranchería (lengua wayuunaiki)]] | Thania Villamizar & Luis Oquendo | ^ Mardi 12 | 16:00-16:45 | [[documentation:chaima-granadilloandgonzalez|La lengua chaima: viejos datos, nuevas perspectivas]] | Tania Granadillo & Jeyni González | ^ Mardi 12 | 16:45-18:00 | Table ronde : synthèse et discussion avec l'équipe de travail sur LED du laboratoire DDL | | ---- ==== Session de travail ==== \\ ^ Jour ^ Horaires ^ Description ^ ^ Mercredi 13 | 9:00-12:00 | [[workshop:partsofspeech|Parts of Speech]] | ^ Mercredi 13 | 13:00-15:00 | [[workshop:verbclassesandvalence|Verb classes / Valence]] | ^ Mercredi 13 | 15:30-17:30 | [[workshop:nonverbalpredication|Nonverbal Predication]] | ^ Jeudi 14 | 9:00-12:00 | [[workshop:mainclausetam|Main Clause TAM]] | ^ Jeudi 14 | 14:00-17:30 | [[workshop:computationaltools|Computational tools clinic: on transcribing and glossing a Cariban language and the importance of tagging for constructions]] | ^ Vendredi 15 | 9:00-12:30 | [[workshop:text2lexicon-caceres|From texts to lexicon: Comparative data in RefLex]] | ^ Vendredi 15 | 14:00-15:30 | [[workshop:venezuelanbranchhypothesis|Testing the Venezuelan branch hypothesis: what's missing?]] | ^ Vendredi 15 | 16:00-17:30 | [[workshop:planingcaribanconference|Planning a Cariban conference and future of the comparative database]] | \\ \\ \\
