“…Data from the Tanjung Pauh Mudik dialect have also enhanced scholarly understandings of phrasal alternation (McKinnon et al 2015;Yanti et al 2018). Finally, the analysis of the Pondok Tinggi data has made a more general contribution to Kerinci sociolinguistics (Ernanda 2011(Ernanda , 2015(Ernanda , 2017, informing our understanding of the morphophonological and morphosyntactic functions of alternation.…”

“…This situation is quite exceptional in comparison with other Kerinci varieties. For instance, Ernanda (2011Ernanda ( , 2015 points out that the Pondok Tinggi dialect spoken in the city centre has undergone contact-induced language attrition. The dominant languages (Minangkabau, localized Indonesian) in this area have interfered with the language of younger speakers.…”

This article investigates the historical development of a hitherto undescribed Kerinci variety, the Semerap dialect, from a comparative Malayic perspective. The morphophonological characteristics of Kerinci languages are unusual within the Austronesian language family. This preliminary study, therefore, pays special attention to the characteristic four-way split of the historical rootfinal *V(C)# in Semerap lexemes: absolute, oblique, K-words, and G-words. Like other Kerinci varieties, the Semerap dialect features a type of phonological word-shape alternation, generally known as "phrasal alternation", which also impacts on its syntax. This alternation (absolute vs. oblique) is determined by the syntactic position of the root, but also by semantic factors. To gain an accurate understanding of Semerap historical development, I also call attention to nonprenasalized voiced stops (G-phonemes), which also influence the realization of the root-final *V(C)#. Finally, an argument is made to take Kerinci varieties into account for Malay historical linguistics more generally.

“…The terms absolute and oblique were introduced by Steinhauer and Usman (1978) and had been taken over by later researchers working on Kerinci varieties (Prentice and Usman 1978;Mckinnon 2011;Ernanda 2011Ernanda , 2015Ernanda , 2016. The forms have also been called Pausal and Non-Pausal (Van Reijn 1974) and 1 This summary was derived from my thesis that can be found at: http://www.…”

“…Dalam kajian ini, dialek yang diberikan tumpuan ialah dialek Semerap. Menurut Ernanda (2015), setiap dialek mempunyai sebutan yang berbeza-beza. Sebagai contoh, perkataan "gadis" diujarkan sebagai [ɡa.doyh] (BK dialek Sungai Penuh), [ɡa.dʌeh] (BK dialek Tanjung Pauh Mudik) dan [ɡa.doht] (BK dialek Koto Pudung).…”

The aim of this article is to explain the syllabification of high vowels /i/ and /u/ at the nucleus position in the Kerinci language. In this language, the high vowels /i/ and /u/ at the nucleus position will undergo changes - for example, /i/, /u/, /is/ and /us/ will be realized as [aj], [aw], [ajh] and [awh]. In order to explain the phonological processes, each problem was analyzed using the theory of autosegmental phonology (Goldsmith, 1976, 1990). There are three processes involved in the theory, namely linking, delinking and features spreading. The phonological modifications involving the high vowels can be adequately explained based on the process of syllabification that is couched in the CV skeletal model of McCarthy (1981). The data for this study were obtained through three different methods, namely library research, observation and interviews. The instruments used in this study were a recorder, questionnaires and notebooks. The informants selected for this study comprised five men and women who are aged 50 years and above, who are native speakers of Kerinci Semerap dialect, and were born in Kabupaten Kerinci, West Sumatera, Indonesia. However, they have been living in Kampung Batu 21 Sungai Lui, Hulu Langat, Selangor, for more than 30 years. The finding showed that the high vowels /i/ and /u/ at the nucleus of word final syllable are linked to the coda nodes and surfaces as the glides [j] and [w]. Thus, the analysis of the syllabification of high vowels at the coda position explains the application of vowel [a] in the output of words such as [mã.taj] “dead”, [sa.taw] “one”, [tu.lajh] “write” and [lu.rawh] “straight” based on the CV skeletal model of McCarthy (1981).
