Transitive L verbs (grade 2) and transitive H verbs (grades 1, 4, 5 and 6) in Hausa verbal compounds
This paper examines Hausa verbal compounds in terms of the division of regular verbs (verbs in the “grade system”) into verbs which have a High or Low tone first syllable. The focus of the paper is the surprisingly small number of transitive L-verbs (verbs beginning with a Low tone – “grade 2”) and...

| description | This paper examines Hausa verbal compounds in terms of the division of regular verbs
(verbs in the “grade system”) into verbs which have a High or Low tone first syllable. The
focus of the paper is the surprisingly small number of transitive L-verbs (verbs beginning
with a Low tone – “grade 2”) and their limited use of compound markers which contrasts
strongly with the frequency of transitive H-verbs (verbs beginning with a High tone) and
their markers. I also describe several devices (e.g. grade-switching and covert subjects)
which “allow” the formation of verbal compounds with transitive L-verbs. |
