| description | This paper presents a preliminary analysis of two Mizo (Lushai) texts collected during an extemporaneous session in 1975 with Siamkima Khawlhring and Professor F. K. Lehman at the University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana. In my analysis, I have chosen to concentrate on two structures, the Itsuaart lin subordination for some noun phrases, and the la 3ni? 3hiil coda found in final position in some otherwise indicative-mood sentences. To be thoroughly understood, both of these constructions require investigation beyond the scope of the clause or sentence. |
