520 $a This dissertation is a comprehensive description of the grammar of Hidatsa, a Siouan language spoken by approximately 100 people on the Forth Berthold Indian Reservation in North Dakota.
520 $a The grammar begins with a description of the historical and linguistic background of Hidatsa and an overview of previous scholarship. It then proceeds to a description of Hidatsa phonology, derivational and inflectional morphology, lexical categories, and concludes with a chapter on clausal phenomena.
520 $a The phonemic inventory comprises ten consonants, five vowels, and two diphthongs. Vowel length is contrastive. There is no lexical stress; instead, Hidatsa has developed a pitch-accent system that involves contrast between high and low pitch, contrast between level and falling pitch contours on long vowels and diphthongs, underlying accent on most morphemes, and variation on the surface level of accent placement caused by various derivational and inflectional patterns.
520 $a The canonical sentence structure is agent-object-verb, also characterized by postpositions, head marking, and internally-headed relative clauses.
520 $a Hidatsa employs two systems of morpho-syntactic alignment that distinguish between the arguments of transitive and intransitive verbs. The two core arguments of transitive verbs, agent and object, and the single core argument of intransitive verbs, subject, are marked by (1) pronominal prefixes on verbs (split-intransitive alignment) and (2) suffixes on noun phrases (ergative alignment). Overtly expressed clausal arguments are also disambiguated by their relative ranking on the animacy and agentivity scales.
520 $a Hidatsa morphology is agglutinative and involves considerable prefixation and suffixation. Participant information and modal categories are encoded on the verb by affixation. Hidatsa has developed a typologically unusual evidential system and an elaborate system of obligatory speech-act suffixes. Both deverbal nominalization and compounding are highly productive. There is also limited noun incorporation. Other Siouan characteristics include classification by posture verbs, perspective by motion verbs, and alienable and inalienable possession.
520 $a The grammar is written within the framework of Basic Linguistic Theory. Data used were obtained through elicitation from Hidatsa speakers and analysis of spontaneous speech. This study disproves several widely held notions about Hidatsa, clarifies various outstanding issues, and identifies various hitherto unknown features in the language.
