Does anyone know where I could find info on polysynthetic noun grammer? So far, all
I've ran into is a small abstract about Tamara, a language that marks
grammatical case on a noun for both the functions that noun serves in a main
clause as well as a subordinate clause,
http://www.linguistics.unimelb.edu.au/events/seminars/abstracts/2000/aikhenvald.html
I'm sure that other languages do this, but I can't find any. Indeed, I can't
even find a decent description of what goes on in Tamara.
