Abstract: (Show)

The author argues that reduplication is a syntactic process which is quite common in both spoken and written Newari. The article aims to survey the uses of reduplication in certain constructions closely associated with the Newari verb. The article discusses the reduplication of the finite forms of the verb, reduplication of non-finite form of the verb, and reduplication of preverbal elements. (Rajeev Ranjan Singh 2007-01-08)
