I show that this proposal\, together with standard assumptions about a rgument structure and agreement\, allows for an account of the complex agr eement patterns. However\, if correct\, the absence of phi-features on ina nimates also requires a rejection of Baker’s (1996) Polysynthesis Parame ter\, a macroparameter according to which all arguments in polysynthetic l anguages must be morphologically referenced on the verb. The conclusion wi ll be that polysynthetic properties of Kanien’kéha do not require appea l to a  macroparameter\, but rather can be seen as the cumulative effect of smaller independently-motivated differences.

Her disse rtation was on the phonetics and phonology of intervocalic consonants in the Lheidli dialect of Dakelh (Carrier)\, a Dene language spoken in Briti sh Columbia. After finishing her PhD\, she returned to UBC as a SSHRC post -doctoral fellow to study the phonetic properties of glottalised resonants in St’át’imcets (Lillooet)\, an Interior Salish language also spoken in British Columbia (2002-2004). She joined the Department of Linguistics at the University of Victoria in 2004 and established the Speech Researc h Lab in 2007\, supported by funding from the Canadian Foundation for In novation.Dr. Bird’s research combines Phonetics with Indigenous Language Documentation and Revitalization. She is particularly interested in the r ole of pronunciation and oral fluency in Indigenous Language Revitalizatio n. Thanks to a SSHRC Partnership Development Grant (2018-2023) and in co llaboration with the Hul’q’umi’num’ Language &\; Culture Societ y\, her recent work has focused on speech production and perception among Hul’q’umi’num’ speakers of different ages and proficiency levels. The goals are to (1) document the pronunciation details of Hul’q’umi ’num’ across speakers\, (2) understand what the challenges are for lea rners\, and (3) help design tools and resources to overcome these challeng es\, with a focus on tools that incorporate “speech visualization” and phonetic analysis. Activities made possible by the SSHRC PDG can be found on the Hwulmuhwqun ~ xʷəlməxʷqən Pronunciation Lab website.Dr. Bir d has also been involved in supporting UVic’s undergraduate and graduate programs in Indigenous Language Revitalization. Since 2016\, she has part icipated in designing and delivering the Masters in Indigenous Language Re vitalization (MILR) program\, offered jointly by the Departments of Lingui stics and Indigenous Education\, for which she acted as Graduate Advisor i n 2020-22. She has also been the Academic Advisor of the (undergraduate) C ertificate in Indigenous Language Revitalization program.See more at: htt ps://www.uvic.ca/humanities/sllc/people/faculty/bird-sonya.php Regards\,G uest Speaker Committee (Ivan Bondoc\, Myrto Grigoroglou\, Tahohtharatye Jo e Brant and Samuel Akinbo) LOCATION: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:CSOL DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260213T150000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260213T163000Z UID:166153235554 DESCRIPTION:CSOL LOCATION: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:PHONO DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260213T163000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260213T180000Z UID:303304205428 DESCRIPTION:PHONO LOCATION: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:SEM DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260213T180000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260213T193000Z UID:251754121260 DESCRIPTION:SEM LOCATION: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:TCL DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260213T200000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260213T213000Z UID:594467694917 DESCRIPTION:TCL LOCATION:SS560A END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Grad Workshop (Lounge) DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260213T200000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260213T220000Z UID:449881557964 DESCRIPTION:Grad Workshop (Lounge) LOCATION: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:SLUGS CommuniTea DTSTART;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260225T170000Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20260225T191500Z UID:202842818280 DESCRIPTION:SLUGS CommuniTea LOCATION:LIN Lounge END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Program Exploration Days DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260224 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260226 UID:209822262504 DESCRIPTION:This event is for undergraduate students looking to explore th eir program interests.
