RAMOS, Pafnuncio Antonio. MONOMORPHEMIC INANIMATE AND ANIMATE NOUNS IN SAN PEDRO MIXTEPEC ZAPOTEC. Linguist.lit. [online]. 2019, n.76, pp.107-124. ISSN 0120-5587.  https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.lyl.n76a05.

The monomorphic substantives of the Zapotec of San Pedro Mixtepec are classified as inanimate and animated. These in turn are subclassified into native and non-native names. While native and non-native inanimates refer to things, native animates allude to terms of kinship and animal names. Non-native animates are used as proper names and animal names. The corpus used for the analysis is a database of 35 hours of transcriptions, which was required to observe the nominals in their isolated forms and in syntactic constructions.
