Direct copying of inflectional paradigms: Evidence from Lamunkhin Even
International audience Language contact studies have shown that, cross-linguistically, the transfer of morphology from one language to another, where it is then used with inherited roots, is relatively rare (Grant 2012, Matras 2015); copying of verbal inflectional morphology is particularly infreque...

International audience Language contact studies have shown that, cross-linguistically, the transfer of morphology from one language to another, where it is then used with inherited roots, is relatively rare (Grant 2012, Matras 2015); copying of verbal inflectional morphology is particularly infrequent (Seifart 2017).
