A Theoretically and Comparatively Informed Description of Yogad Morphology
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Yogad is an Austronesian language spoken in the Northern Philippines by approximately 16,000 speakers. Previous descriptive work on Yogad follows a nonaprioristic approach, where no categories are imported from other languages. This description makes it difficult to gloss functional morphemes or to discuss Yogad in a cross-linguistic context. In this paper, I reanalyze the morphology of Yogad following a restrictivist approach to language description, particularly the verbal affixes, case marking particles, and personal pronouns. I provide a description of Yogad morphology which does not exoticize the language, is informed by theory, and can contribute to discussions and debate within the language family. I situate Yogad in the larger context of Austronesian languages through a comparative study and a diachronic discussion. I provide two descriptions of Yogad morphology, following the analyses and theories held by the two sides of the Austronesian voice debate.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
