Sounds Like Life: Sound-symbolic Grammar, Performance, and Cognition in Pastaza Quechua - Oxford Studies in Anthropological Linguistics
Nuckolls, Janis B. (Professor of Anthropology, Professor of Anthropology, University of Alabama at Birmingham)
Nuckolls studies the occurrence of sound-symbolic words - words that bear resemblance to phenomena they attempt to describe - in an Ecuadorian dialect of Quechua, a major South American language. She explores how the speakers describe everyday experience and how sound-symbolism is integral to their way of thinking and speaking.
