Adverbial subordinate clauses in yucatec maya
In this research I develop a description of the morphosyntactic and syntactic aspects of adverbial subordinate clauses in Yucatec Maya, a language spoken in the Yucatan Peninsula. The main propose of this research is to show that Yucatec Maya has a wide range of subordinating links, which have lexical and grammatical meaning to introduce adverbial subordinate clauses. To do this, I will present sixteen subordinating links that introduce clauses with different adverbial meanings such as time, cause, purpose, etc. Therefore, I will show that adverbial constructions contain the four types of verbal constituents proposed for independent constructions in Gutiérrez Bravo (2015a).
