| summary | This presentation focuses on possession marking in Piaroa (Jodï-Sáliban, Colombia and Venezuela, ISO 639-3: pid). Based on first-hand fieldwork data and building on previous descriptions, I show that Piaroa has both inalienable and alienable possession and that for a subset of nouns, possession marking is accomplished via possessive classifiers, that originated in lexical items. This presentation not only contributes to the description of Piaroa, an underdocumented and underdescribed Amazonian language, but also to our understanding of possessive classifier systems and their genesis. |
