9.2.1. Types of juxtaposed clauses

Using the semantic relationship between the two clauses as a basis, the following division can be made. a. The juxtaposed clause denotes condition, circumstance or result. In most of these examples it is possible to add a conjunction for example, ane if, which results in a conjoined construction: 61 ana-no naando ne-ndo-ndole do-libu-libu-e child-his be 3sR-RED-lie 3pR-RED-surround-him isa-hi-hi-no older.sibling-PLUR-PLUR-his his child was still lying there surrounded by his older brothers and sisters 62 nao-kesa sepaliha dua suara-no ane nae-lagu 3sI-beautiful very also voice-his if 3sI-sing his voice will also be very beautiful when he sings 63 do-dadi te dhunia ini miina nae-mbali do-ka-angka-angka ne 3pR-live loc world this not 3sI-can 3pR-KA-RED-go loc ka-pudhi NOM-praise while living in this world one must not be led astray by praise b. The juxtaposed clause is an elaboration or clarification of the first clause. No conjunction can be added in these examples. The subjects of the first and the second clause are identical and the verbs must agree in mood either both realis or both irrealis: 64 o ndoke ne-wei no-puru-si-e roo-no sau ART monkey 3sR-clear 3sR-pull.off-REP-it leaf-POS tree the monkey was clearing the forest by pulling the leaves off the trees 65 no-tanampe mie anagha ne-salo ne Kakawasa 3sR-lift.hands person that 3sR-ask loc God the man lifted his hands in supplication to God 66 no-tende dahu no-hamba katogha the dog ran chasing the crow 3sR-run dog 3sR-chase crow 67 do-sawi ne hae do-kala? how will we go? 1pR-go.by loc what 1pR-go using what kind of vehicle? 68 dadi no-ghi-ghito Wa Ode Rangkuno Bhea no-pototo ndoke so 3sR-RED-black Wa Ode Rangkuno Bhea 3sR-same monkey so Wa Ode Rangkuno Bhea was as black as a monkey 240 A GRAMMAR OF THE MUNA LANGUAGE 69 no-bheti A Se-tu-se-tuda no-losi we ghabu 3sR-jump.aside ART RED-one-span 3sR-arrive.at loc kitchen One-span jumped aside into the kitchen c. The juxtaposed clause follows a clause containing a motion verb such as kala go, foni go up indicating a kind of purpose. Usually, but not necessarily, the juxtaposed clause follows right after the motion verb. Again, the subjects of the two clauses must be identical and the verbs must agree in mood. 70 naewine da-si-kala-ha dae-kabua we tehi tomorrow 1pI-SI-go-HA 1pI-fish loc sea tomorrow we will go fishing together in the sea 71 andoa da-[m]oni dae-empe ka-mo-taha te molo so kamokula-ndo they 3pI-go.up 3pI-take.up NOM-CA-ripe loc mountains for parent-their they will go and bring the cooked food to the mountains for their parents 72 pasino no-suli-mo no-bhasi ndoke after.that 3sR-return-PF 3sR-call monkey after that he went home to call the monkey The verb mai-ghoo come from, when juxtaposed to a motion verb, may lose its subject marker and become almost preposition-like: 73 ta-ere-mo we Malang ta-mai-ghoo te Kandari 1eR-leave-PF loc Malang 1eR-come-IO loc Kendari we ex left for Malang coming from Kendari 74 no-suli-mo mai-ghoo ne-kabua he returned from fishing 3sR-return-PF come-IO 3sR-fish d. The juxtaposed clause consists of a numeral verb, also agreeing with the first verb in subject and mood: 75 da-l[um]eni-mo da-ru-dua let us two swim together 1pI-swim-PF 1pI-RED-two 76 do-suli-mo do-to-tolu do-po-angka-angka 3pR-return-PF 3pR-RED-three 3pR-REC-RED-go the three of them went home behind one another
