“…(Dietrich, 1986, p. 88) The first-person non-singular split verbal morphological pattern of Tapiete differs from the rest of the languages of the family. We hypothesize that this morphological peculiarity of Tapiete could be described as a linguistic instance of the miscegenation process between Chanés and Chacoan groups (Combès, 2008). Although the morphological pattern 'prefix/circumfix' in Tapiete is of the Matacoan model type, the semantics of the first segment of the circumfix is different, i.e.…”

In this paper we suggest that linguistic features can show traces of the frequency and intensity of social interactions between indigenous peoples. We focus on peoples of the alluvial fan of the Pilcomayo River (South American Chaco), and analyze first-person non-singular verbal encoding in their languages. The corpus is composed of (a) data obtained during fieldwork, (b) descriptive grammars, and (c) published reports by missionaries, army officers, and European travelers. Combining environmental and ethnohistorical information, we propose that the first-person non-singular subject verbal indexes split visible in Eastern Toba of the Lower Pilcomayo River, Western Toba from the Upper-Middle Pilcomayo River (Guaicuruan), and Tapiete of the Upper Pilcomayo River area (Tupi-Guaraní) could be an outcome of language-internal resources used by the speakers of these languages to replicate the Matacoan (Maká, Nivaclé, and Wichí) external model.

“…First, we know from ethnohistorical sources that the arrival of Chiriguano, the westernmost Guaranian language, in the Andean foothills region dates to only the 14th or 15th century as a result of an east-to-west expansion (Santos-Granero 2009). Similarly, Tapiete has been argued to emerge as a consequence of 'Guaranization' of non-TG-peoples from the 16 th century on (Combès 2008). Both these observations suggest that the expansion of the Guaranian subgroups was not from the Andean foothills region towards the Paraná-Paraguay River basin, but the reverse, and that this in fact took place relatively recently, with the Paraná-Paraguay River basin being the proto-Guaranian homeland.…”

The question of where Proto-Tupí-Guaraní (PTG) was spoken has been a point of considerable debate. Both northeastern and southwestern Amazonian homelands having been proposed, with evidence from both archaeology and linguistic classification playing key roles in this debate. In this paper we demonstrate that the application of linguistic migration theory to a recent phylogenetic classification of the Tupí-Guaraní family lends strong support to a northeastern Amazonian homeland.

“…El caso del tapiete es interesante en la medida en que se trata de una lengua tupí-guaraní hablada por un pueblo culturalmente chaqueño y en prolongado contacto con otros grupos chaqueños (Combès 2004(Combès , 2008Hirsch 2006;Hirsch, González y Ciccone 2006 (González 2005). Esta situación se diferencia de lo que se observa tanto en avá-guaraní como en guaraní paraguayo, ambas lenguas en las que la oclusiva velar sorda [k] no se palataliza en el mismo contexto (Guasch 1948;Dietrich 1986;Canese 1994) Estos ejemplos reflejan una situación heterogénea que ciertamente distingue el tapiete de las lenguas 'prototípicamente' chaqueñas, pero también de las otras lenguas TG de la región en las que no opera la regla de palatalización que se ilustra en (24).…”

Procesos fonológicos como rasgos areales: el caso de la palatalización en las lenguas chaqueñasABSTRACT: This article examines palatalization in the languages of the Chaco, a geographic and cultural region of South America within which the extended contact among the indigenous population has resulted in the convergence of linguistic structures. Specifically, it examines (i) the segments that trigger palatalization, (ii) the segments targeted by palatalization, (iii) the segments that result from this process, (iv) the (regressive or progressive) direction of the process, and (v) the (lexical-postlexical) level in which it is applied. With these data, we hope to contribute to the postulation of the Chaco as a linguistic area, while contributing to typological and phonological theory, through the description and analysis of sound classes phonologically active in phonological systems of little documented and endangered languages. KEYWORDS: Palatalization; Languages of the Chaco; Phonological typology. RESUMO:Este artículo examina la manifestación de la palatalización en las lenguas del Chaco, región geográfica y cultural de América del Sur en la que el prolongado contacto entre sus hablantes ha resultado en la convergencia de estructuras lingüísticas. Se examinan (i) los segmentos que desencadenan la palatalización, (ii) los segmentos afectados, (iii) los segmentos que resultan de la aplicación de este proceso, (iv) la dirección (regresiva o progresiva) y (v) el nivel (léxico -posléxico) en el cual el proceso se aplica. Esperamos contribuir a la postulación de la región chaqueña como área lingüística y aportar a la teoría tipológica y fonológica, a través de la descripción y el análisis de clases de sonido fonológicamente activas que se observan en los sistemas fonológicos de lenguas poco documentadas y mayormente en peligro.
