My name is Joseph Bogny.

I am a maître-assistant at the University of Cocody-Abidjan, where I teach syntax and historical and comparative linguistics.

In the department of anthropology I teach 'paleolinguistique' where I combine in my teaching anthropology and linguistics.

More information about Akye which, by the way, is the only language of the Kwa-group that displays a true SOV order in the imperfective aspect of the sentence can be found on the language's profile page called Typological Features Template for Attie

La réduplication des verbes monosyllabiques dans les langues kwa de Côte d’Ivoire

Cette étude qui porte sur la réduplication des verbes monosyllabiques révèle deux sous-groupes au sein des langues kwa de Côte d’Ivoire : le sous-groupe des langues qui admettent la réduplication totale (où la syllabe rédupliquée est identique à la syllabe du radical verbal) et le sous-groupe de celles qui sont soumises à une réduplication partielle. Dans cette dernière la voyelle du réduplicatif (la syllabe rédupliquée) est préspécifiée [+HAUT]. Cet article assume qu’il existe une contrainte qui interdit la réduplication de la voyelle du radical monosyllabique et que la position nucléaire du réduplicatif subit le gouvernement par projection nucléaire du noyau de la syllabe du radical verbal (pour acquérir les autres traits). Ce phénomène est bien répandu dans les langues Niger-Congo (cf. Faraclas et Williamson, 1984 ; Capo 1989).

This paper deals with the reduplication of monosyllabic verbs in the Kwa languages of Côte d’Ivoire. The study reveals two options: the total reduplication (in which the reduplicated syllable is identical to the radical) and the partial reduplication (in which the vowel of the reduplicated syllable is prespecified [+HIGH]). This phenomenon is well spreaded in Niger-Congo languages (cf. Faraclas and Williamson 1984; Capo 1989). This study claims (for the case of the partial reduplication) there is a constraint on the vowel (of the radical): the reduplication of this vowel is prohibited. In order to acquire the other features, the nucleus of the reduplicated syllable is submitted to the government of the nucleus of the radical (by projection).
