Changes needed for Feature system
Now that I am working on the feature structures for the affix files using the new feature system I am noticing changes that are needed. I have documented them in comments at the top of the feature system file. (3) is implemented already
1. Need to add new daughter to name="affix", i.e. value="syntactic"
2. Need to add new fDecl name="syntactic" category, and list of symbol values that are daughter of "syntactic"; one of these latter is going to be "interrogative" (it is a type of enclitic particle with syntactic function).
3. Moved attributiveHabitual and repetitive to secondaryAspectual category.
Please note: The categories are determined on the basis of grammatical function and meaning. Therefore, for example, the outofControl morpheme is included with Control morphemes rather than with Reduplication on the basis of its function as a control marker rather than on the basis of its formal characteristics as a reduplicative morpheme. For the most part the categories reflect those provided in Nxa'amxcín grammar of Marie Louise Willett (2003), which in turn is based on all the work of Dale Kinkade.
