Metatypia

Metatypia est talis mutatio morphosyntactica et semantica, quae per contactum socialem locutorum multilinguium efficiatur. Nomen metatypiae (metatypy) a linguista Malcolm D. Ross factum est, qui terminum hac definitione describit (1999:7.1):

[Metatypia est] mutatio generis morphosyntactici et organizationis grammaticae [et exemplarium semanticorum] quae lingua ob bilingualismum eius loquentium in alia lingua patitur. Haec mutatio interpretatione grammatica perducitur; hoc est constructionalem imitari significationem ex lingua mutata ac novas novare structuras, materiam hereditate exceptam ad eas exprimendas adhibens. Comitans huius redintegrationis constructionum grammaticarum res saepe est redintegratio vel creatio paradigmatum functorum grammaticorum. . . . Usitate, lingua quae metatypiam patitur (lingua immutata) identitatem suorum loquentium exprimit, cum lingua quae exemplar metatypicum praebet sit lingua inter communia. Loquentes linguae immutatae commune constituunt tam strictum ut ei suam identitatem separatam et suam linguam ut signum illius identitatis bene sentiunt, sed nonnulli tantum loquentes bilingues lingua inter communia tam late utuntur ut eis magis commoda est quam lingua commune significanti.^[1]

Ross (2002) has mutationes metatypicas cognoscit:

"reorganizatio exemplarium semanticorum linguae et modorum rerum dictarum"
"restructuratio^? syntaxis, i.e. exemplaris in quibus morphemata concatenantur ad formandas
- (i) sententias et clausas,
- (ii) phrases, et
- (iii) vocabula."

Ross praeterea cognoscit denuo constitionem semanticam ante restructurationem^? syntacticam fieri. Mutationes syntacticae hoc ordine fiunt: (i) sententia/clausa, (ii) phrasis, (iii) verbum. Hic sunt nonnullae linguae quae metatypiam passae sunt:

Lingua mutata	Linguae inter communitates
Takia (Oceanica)	Waskia (Transnovaguineanae)
Anêm (Papuana Orientalis)	Lusi (Oceanica)
Arvanitica (Albaniana, Indoeuropaea)	Graeca (Indoeuropaea)
Mixe Vasconica	Gasconica (Italica)
Phan Rang Cham (linguae Malaico-Polynesicae)	Vietnamiensis (lingua Vietica)
Asia Minor Graeca (Indoeuropaea)	Turkica (Turcica)
Ilwana (Benue–Congo)	Orma (Cushitica)
Kupwar Kannada (Dravidiana)	Kupwar Marathi (Indoiraniana)
Tariana (Maipureana)	linguae Tucanoana
Kupwar Urdu (Indoiraniana)	Kupwar Marathi (Indoiraniana)

Exemplum: Takia Papuanizata et Waskia[recensere | fontem recensere]

Exemplum a Ross datum (1999) est papuanizatio linguae Takiae (rami occidentalis familiae Oceanicae) ob momentum ex vicina lingua Waskia (familiae Madang, phyli Transnovaguinei). Hic, in notione Rossiana, Takia est "lingua modificata"; Waskia, "lingua inter communia." Waskia, autem, non videtur a Takia magnopere mota esse. Ambae linguae in usu in Lingua Karkar sunt. Effectu mutationis metatypicae Takia usitate Waska ad verbum convertit, ut hic:

Locutio Latine conversa:	'homo me ferit'
Takia:	tamol	an	ŋai	i-fun-ag=da
	vir	DET	ego	is-ferire-ego=IMP
Waskia:	kadi	mu	aga	umo-so
	vir	DET	ego	ferire-PRAES.is

Hoc par structurarum syntacticarum et semanticarum huic conversioni ad verbum facultatem facit. Inter mutationes grammaticas quas Takia patitur sunt:

Mutatio metatypicica	Oceanica Occidentalis Nova		Takia Papuanizata
ordo verborum:	SVO	→	SOV
non deicticus determinator:	nomen capitale antecedit	→	caput sequitur
nomen attributivum:	caput antecedit	→	caput sequitur
coniuncta phrasis nominis:	Phrasis Nominis + Coniunctio + Phrasis Nominis	→	Phrasis Nominia + Phrasis Nominis + Postpositio
adpositio:	praepositio	→	postpositio

Mutationes diffusionales in Takia solum per metatypiam sunt; quod significat Takiam suam phonologiam non mutavisse et paene nulla verba a Waskia mutuata habere.

Notae[recensere | fontem recensere]

↑ Anglice: "[Metatypy is a] change in morphosyntactic type and grammatical organisation [and also semantic patterns] which a language undergoes as a result of its speakers' bilingualism in another language. This change is driven by grammatical calquing, i.e. the copying of constructional meanings from the modified language and the innovation of new structures using inherited material to express them. A concomitant of this reorganisation of grammatical constructions is often the reorganisation or creation of paradigms of grammatical functors. . . . Usually, the language undergoing metatypy (the modified language) is emblematic of its speakers’ identity, whilst the language which provides the metatypic model is an inter-community language. Speakers of the modified language form a sufficiently tightknit community to be well aware of their separate identity and of their language as a marker of that identity, but some bilingual speakers, at least, use the inter-community language so extensively that they are more at home in it than in the emblematic language of the community."
