The Nature of Nominal Categorisation
In my project, I am investigating formal and functional properties of systems of nominal categorisation (classifier systems, noun class/gender systems). Throughout the literature on that field it has been claimed that these systems are located on a scale with a semantic functional pole on the one side (classifier systems) and a lexico-syntactic formal pole on the oher side (noun class and gender systems). It has furthermore been assumed that in case of development, systems of nominal categorisation have a natural preference for a change into a more formal type of system. Since we do not have documented proof for this, I test these assumptions from a typological point of view.
