<p>Douglas: </p> <hr /> <div>Welcome to the Mi'gmaq language wiki! <br /> <br /> This wiki aims to provide a snapshot of some of the current topics in describing the grammar of Mi'gmaq that McGill linguists are working on with members of the Listuguj community. It is still a work in progress, so nothing here should be taken as the final word on the language, although we are doing our best to make it as accurate as possible. If you see an error, we are very happy to fix it, so please contact us through the [http://migmaq.org blog] or if you have an account feel free to fix it yourself! If you know something about Mi'gmaq and would like to contribute to the wiki, feel free to also contact us for an account. Please be aware that anything that is submitted to the wiki may be edited by other contributors. <br /> <br /> A list of glosses used on this wiki can be found on the [[Glosses]] page. There are various resources online which provide definitions of basic linguistic terminology, for example this [http://www.sil.org/linguistics/GlossaryOflinguisticTerms/ glossary of linguistic terms]; see the &quot;Linguistics Online&quot; sidebar of the [http://migmaq.org blog] for more info.<br /> <br /> Many of the articles in this wiki build on class projects that were developed as part of a class wiki for a field methods course on Mi'gmaq in Fall 2011 at McGill. Currently available and projected content of the wiki is described below, for a structured list of these articles visit the [[contents]] page.<br /> <br /> ==Background information==<br /> Mi'gmaq is an Eastern Algonquian language spoken in eastern Canada. For more information about the history and the people, see the article [[Background]]. There are several general characteristics of the language that are useful to understand for the remaining sections. These include: <br /> * [[Person and number]]<br /> * [[Animacy]]<br /> * [[Obviation]]<br /> <br /> ==Sounds and spelling==<br /> There are several different ways of writing down Mi'gmaq. This wiki uses the [[Spelling]] from Listuguj, but some of the resources we discuss may also use other systems. One sound that is not always written is schwa, because it is sometimes possible to predict where to pronounce it anyway. For details on this, see [[Writing Schwa]]. <br /> <br /> Mi'gmaq has six [[Vowels|vowels]] and thirteen [[Consonants|consonants]] according to the Listuguj orthography, although they are not always pronounced as in [[Pronunciation Differences|English]]. Mi'gmaq words are also grouped into [[Syllables|syllables]], some of which are pronounced more emphatically, or are [[Stress|stressed]].<br /> <br /> ==Verbs==<br /> ''For more detail, see [[Verbs]]''<br /> <br /> Verbs are used to describe actions, activities, or events. They are the central component of a sentence in Mi'gmaq and are made up of many different pieces of information. They contain enough information that they can represent a complete sentence, and are often the only element in a sentence.<br /> <br /> All verbs include at least: the [[Stem|Verb Stem]] and [[Person and number]] marking. The person and number markings are vary depending on the type of verb, as described in the following articles. <br /> * [[VAI]] -- Intransitive Animate Verbs<br /> * [[VII]] -- Intransitive Inanimate Verbs<br /> * [[VTA]] -- Transitive Animate Verbs<br /> * [[VTI]] -- Transitive Inanimate Verbs<br /> There are also elements that aren't present on all verbs but are still very useful in certain contexts, including [[Preverbs]], [[Negation]], [[Tense]], and [[Obviation]]. An additional characteristic of verbs is [[Mood]], which refers to the speaker's attitude towards a situation, for example, making a definite statement, giving an order, or talking about a condition or possibility.<br /> <br /> ==Nouns==<br /> ''For more detail, see [[Nouns]].<br /> <br /> Nouns are words that refer to persons (like ''e'pit'', &quot;woman&quot;), places (like ''Listuguj''), or things (like ''mpoqon'', &quot;bed&quot;). They are the parts of a sentence that do the action described by the verb or have the action done to them. Many Mi'gmaq sentences have nouns in them, but they aren't necessary because the verbs are so expressive. <br /> <br /> Nouns can have several characteristics in Mi'gmaq, including [[Animacy]], being [[Plural Nouns|Singular or Plural]], [[Obviation]], and being [[Absentative]]. Nouns can be modified by a variety of things, including [[Possession]], [[Adjectives]], [[Determiners]], [[Numerals]], [[Relative Clauses]], [[Nouns#Diminutive|Diminutives and Augmentatives]]. [[Pronouns]] can also be used to substitute for nouns.<br /> <br /> ==Sentences==<br /> * [[Discourse Particles]]<br /> * [[Questions]]<br /> * [[Word Order]]<br /> <br /> ==[[Conversational Mi'gmaq]]==<br /> In this section you will find useful everyday phrases to start off your Mi'gmaq learning!<br /> <br /> ==Understanding and Editing this Wiki==<br /> * [[Glosses|List of Abbreviations]]<br /> * [[Style Guide]]<br /> * [[How to do Citations]]<br /> * [[Wiki gloss extension]]<br /> <br /> * Consult [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents User's Guide] for information on using the wiki software<br /> * [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:FAQ MediaWiki FAQ]<br /> <br /> ==Mi'gmaq Language Resources==<br /> * The [http://migmaq.org/ blog] associated with this wiki, for project updates and more language-related links <br /> * [http://www.mikmaqonline.org/ Mikmaq Online], which includes an online dictionary</div>

<p>Douglas: </p> <hr /> <div>Welcome to the Mi'gmaq language wiki! <br /> <br /> This wiki aims to provide a snapshot of some of the current topics in describing the grammar of Mi'gmaq that McGill linguists are working on with members of the Listuguj community. It is still a work in progress, so nothing here should be taken as the final word on the language, although we are doing our best to make it as accurate as possible. If you see an error, we are very happy to fix it, so please contact us through the [http://migmaq.org blog] or if you have an account feel free to fix it yourself! If you know something about Mi'gmaq and would like to contribute to the wiki, feel free to also contact us for an account. Please be aware that anything that is submitted to the wiki may be edited by other contributors. <br /> <br /> A list of glosses used on this wiki can be found on the [[Glosses]] page. There are various resources online which provide definitions of basic linguistic terminology, for example this [http://www.sil.org/linguistics/GlossaryOflinguisticTerms/ glossary of linguistic terms]; see the &quot;Linguistics Online&quot; sidebar of the [http://migmaq.org blog] for more info.<br /> <br /> Many of the articles in this wiki build on class projects that were developed as part of a class wiki for a field methods course on Mi'gmaq in Fall 2011 at McGill. Currently available and projected content of the wiki is described below, for a structured list of these articles visit the [[contents]] page.<br /> <br /> ==Background information==<br /> Mi'gmaq is an Eastern Algonquian language spoken in eastern Canada. For more information about the history and the people, see the article [[Background]]. There are several general characteristics of the language that are useful to understand for the remaining sections. These include: <br /> * [[Person and number]]<br /> * [[Animacy]]<br /> * [[Obviation]]<br /> <br /> ==Sounds and spelling==<br /> There are several different ways of writing down Mi'gmaq. This wiki uses the [[Spelling]] from Listuguj, but some of the resources we discuss may also use other systems. One sound that is not always written is schwa, because it is sometimes possible to predict where to pronounce it anyway. For details on this, see [[Writing Schwa]]. <br /> <br /> Mi'gmaq has six [[Vowels|vowels]] and thirteen [[Consonants|consonants]] according to the Listuguj orthography, although they are not always pronounced as in [[Pronunciation Differences|English]]. Mi'gmaq words are also grouped into [[Syllables|syllables]], some of which are pronounced more emphatically, or are [[Stress|stressed]].<br /> <br /> ==Verbs==<br /> ''For more detail, see [[Verbs]]''<br /> <br /> Verbs are used to describe actions, activities, or events. They are the central component of a sentence in Mi'gmaq and are made up of many different pieces of information. They contain enough information that they can represent a complete sentence, and are often the only element in a sentence.<br /> <br /> All verbs include at least: the [[Stem|Verb Stem]] and [[Person and number]] marking. The person and number markings are vary depending on the type of verb, as described in the following articles. <br /> * [[VAI]] -- Intransitive Animate Verbs<br /> * [[VII]] -- Intransitive Inanimate Verbs<br /> * [[VTA]] -- Transitive Animate Verbs<br /> * [[VTI]] -- Transitive Inanimate Verbs<br /> There are also elements that aren't present on all verbs but are still very useful in certain contexts, including [[Preverbs]], [[Negation]], [[Tense]], and [[Obviation]]. An additional characteristic of verbs is [[Mood]], which refers to the speaker's attitude towards a situation, for example, making a definite statement, giving an order, or talking about a condition or possibility.<br /> <br /> ==Nouns==<br /> ''For more detail, see [[Nouns]].<br /> <br /> Nouns are words that refer to persons (like ''e'pit'', &quot;woman&quot;), places (like ''Listuguj''), or things (like ''mpoqon'', &quot;bed&quot;). They are the parts of a sentence that do the action described by the verb or have the action done to them. Many Mi'gmaq sentences have nouns in them, but they aren't necessary because the verbs are so expressive. <br /> <br /> Nouns can have several characteristics in Mi'gmaq, including [[Animacy]], being [[Plural Nouns|Singular or Plural]], [[Obviation]], and being [[Absentative]]. Nouns can be modified by a variety of things, including [[Possession]], [[Adjectives]], [[Determiners]], [[Numerals]], [[Nouns#Diminutive|Diminutives]] and [[Relative Clauses]].

[[Pronouns]] can also be used to substitute for nouns.<br /> <br /> ==Sentences==<br /> * [[Discourse Particles]]<br /> * [[Questions]]<br /> * [[Word Order]]<br /> <br /> ==[[Conversational Mi'gmaq]]==<br /> In this section you will find useful everyday phrases to start off your Mi'gmaq learning!<br /> <br /> ==Understanding and Editing this Wiki==<br /> * [[Glosses|List of Abbreviations]]<br /> * [[Style Guide]]<br /> * [[How to do Citations]]<br /> * [[Wiki gloss extension]]<br /> <br /> * Consult [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents User's Guide] for information on using the wiki software<br /> * [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:FAQ MediaWiki FAQ]<br /> <br /> ==Mi'gmaq Language Resources==<br /> * The [http://migmaq.org/ blog] associated with this wiki, for project updates and more language-related links <br /> * [http://www.mikmaqonline.org/ Mikmaq Online], which includes an online dictionary</div>
