A Study of Noun Reduplication in the Ludian Naxi Dialect
This article, by He Ju (Shanghai Normal University, 2022), is announced in its abstract as a study of noun reduplication in the Ludian dialect of Naxi, arguing that reduplicated nouns in this dialect can express grammatical meanings including reflexivity, distinction, emphasis, maximal distance, and totality/exhaustiveness, and setting out to describe the reduplication forms, grammatical meanings, and syntactic characteristics involved. However, the source text supplied for translation contains only the article's front matter (title, author and funding information, abstract, keywords) and back matter (footnotes and an eighteen-item reference list on reduplication across Sino-Tibetan and other languages), interspersed with repeating journal page headers/footers (pp. 57-64). The actual analytical sections -- the data, examples, and argument the abstract promises -- are not present in the source and could not be translated because they were never captured.
