Document Details : Title: Melodic Tones in Orungu (Bantu B11b) Author(s): MANIACKY, Jacky , AMBOUROUE, Odette Journal: Africana Linguistica Volume: 20 Date: 2014 Pages: 243-261 DOI: 10.2143/AL.20.0.3062071 Abstract : Verbs in Orungu (Bantu B11b) are characterized by the use of melodic tones in verbal paradigms, with particular tone patterns being associated with certain tenses/aspects. We discuss these six patterns along with a new analysis of the verbal tonology of the language. Two of these melodies are responsible for a remarkable neutralization in the intonational phrase. The distribution of the melodies and their predictability are examined.
