Journal Article
Focus in Ecuadorian Quechua
2012
Overview
This paper provides a brief description of how pragmatically marked focus is encoded in Ecuadorian Quechua. While this is a preliminary study based on data from one speaker, this variety of Quechua is under-documented, and this in-progress study is a contribution nonetheless Clauses with focus reveal pragmatic nuances that differ from other clause types. I will illustrate the effects of focus by contrasting focused and unfocused sentences.
