I Chantyal attests a number of Bodic demonstrative etyma, but only members of three sets retain clear demonstrative senses and oppositions based on spatial deixis.2 In this paper, I will discuss these three sets of demonstratives and, in particular, how demonstratives from different sets can combine to form a construction I will call the `double demonstrative'. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/178059 | ISSN: | 0731-3500 | DOI: | 10.32655/LTBA.24.2.08 | Organisations: | University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee | Rights: | © 2001 The Editor(s).
