The Mirndi language family is one of the very few discontinuous language families
that have been proposed for Australia.This reconstruction shows that there is a
sufficient evidentiary basis, according to the canons of standard historical linguistics,
to show that the Mirndi languages constitute a distinct languagefamily. The evidence
comes from closed class morphemes, both grammatical and lexical. The evidence
from open, lexical classes is negligible and would not suffice to establish the family.
The reconstruction also considers the evidence as to the territorial associations
of Proto-Mi
mdi.
There are a number of strands of evidence, which though limited,
all converge in indicating that the territorial associations of Proto-Mirndi were in
the vicinity of the south-western Gulf of Carpentaria. As such, this implies shifts in
territorial affiliations of the Mirndi varieties from east to west.
In addition its linguistic aspects,the reconstruction also provides a detailed overview
of the history of subsections. Subsections are a salient social construct across
much of north-central and north-western Australia.The reconstruction shows that
subsections are of considerable time depth,and also that the diffusion of subsections
is of considerable time depth.
Mark Harvey is a senior lecturer in linguistics at the University of Newcastle. He has
been working on languages in the north-west of the Northern Territory since
Ί980.
In addition to descriptive work, his linguistic research has focussed in three areas:
the phonological and morphological analysis of complex words; the semantic and
syntactic analysis of complex predicate structures; relationships between land and
language in Aboriginal Australia.
