Annotation

M. studies a kind of respect speech that has become formalized and institutionalized among the Guarijio Indians, how it is marked linguistically, who uses it, under what circumstances it is used, the relation between the linguistic markers and the social meaning, and how it compares with other forms of respect speech.
