Common questions about Yucatec Maya

什么是VOS语序?
动词–宾语–主语。尤卡坦玛雅语中,动词位于句首,宾语其次,主语最后:'t-u jats'-aj-ø Pedro le maako'' = '打了佩德罗那个人' = '那个人打了佩德罗'。VOS是全球最罕见的语序之一——约3%的语言使用它。主要集中在玛雅语族、米斯特克语族、南岛语系(菲律宾、波利尼西亚语支)及少数孤立语中。话题和焦点成分可移至句首。
A组和B组代词有什么区别?
A组前缀(in-, a-, u-, k-)附着于动词开头;B组后缀(-en, -ech, -ø)附着于动词末尾。A组标记进行事件中的施事及已完成及物事件的施事。B组标记及物动词的受事及已完成非及物事件的施事。这种区分在已完成及物小句中呈现作格-通格模式,在正在进行的小句中呈现主格-宾格模式。
尤卡坦玛雅语有时态吗?
没有语法时态——动词不因过去、现在或将来而改变。体助词传达时间意义:táan(进行中,通常指现在)、ts'o'ok(已完成,通常指过去)、mukah(将要,指未来)、yan(预定、义务性)。时间副词在需要时提供精确性。尤卡坦玛雅语是几种已知的「无时态」语言之一,与汉语和缅甸语并列。
尤卡坦玛雅语和玛雅语族是同一个概念吗?
尤卡坦玛雅语是约30种玛雅语言之一,在尤卡坦半岛约有80万人使用。其他主要玛雅语言包括K'iche'、Q'eqchi'、Mam、Tzotzil、Tzeltal、Q'anjob'al和Cakchiquel——所有这些语言都在危地马拉和墨西哥南部使用。它们约在4000年前有共同祖先,语法结构相似,但彼此不能互通。
为什么尤卡坦玛雅语用环缀包裹名词来表示指示?
尤卡坦玛雅语使用环缀le...-o'/-a'而非简单的冠词来表示指别。le maako'-o' = '那个人';le pek'-a' = '这只狗(这儿)'。le位于名词之前,后缀位于名词之后,从两侧框住名词。后缀的元音编码直指:-o'为远指/已知,-a'为近指。没有环缀时,名词为光杆形式,表示不定指或泛指。
