This derived 8 order that cover 83% of the typological data (Dryer 2018). Other orders of the elements in (1) are non-homomorphic, and as is well known (Greenberg 1965), some are not typologically attested. Those that are attested require something that goes beyond a homomorphic mapping, and I examine one such case from&nbsp;K\u00ee\u00eetharaka&nbsp;here.&nbsp;K\u00ee\u00eetharaka places the Noun initially, followed by the demonstrative, then the adjective and numeral with more freedom of order. Typical analyses of this order involve a movement of the noun to the initial position motivated by no more than getting the order right. I argue instead here that the&nbsp;K\u00ee\u00eetharaka noun phrase is built up from a series of predicative constituents. The syntactic function of class markers is to relativize the subjects of these constituents. I argue that this approach both provides a unified analysis of class marking and an account of a complex set of ordering effects within the&nbsp;K\u00ee\u00eetharaka nominal.<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are super happy to have David Adger (Queen Mary University&nbsp;of&nbsp; London) talking to us in FishFeed tomorrow at the usual time (1315 on Tuesday)!&nbsp; Look forward to seeing you all there.&nbsp; &nbsp; Here is the title and a short abstract: &nbsp; Structure and Order in the K\u00ee\u00eetharaka Nominal&nbsp; &nbsp; Over 80% of the worlds <a class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/castlfish\/2021\/05\/10\/david-adger-at-fishfeed-11-05-2021\/\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":889,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-649331","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/castlfish\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/649331","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/castlfish\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/castlfish\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/castlfish\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/889"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/castlfish\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=649331"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/castlfish\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/649331\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":649332,"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/castlfish\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/649331\/revisions\/649332"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/castlfish\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=649331"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/castlfish\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=649331"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.uit.no\/castlfish\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=649331"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
