RAMOS BIERGE, Stefanie. System of reference in Wixárika. Cuad. Lingüíst. Col. Méx. [online]. 2024, vol.11, e286.  Epub 20-Maio-2024. ISSN 2007-736X.  https://doi.org/10.24201/clecm.v11i00.286.

This research analyzes the system of reference in narratives from the Wixárika language. The language displays 8 strategies for identifying entities and their functions, 6 of which are common at a typological level, while the remaining two distinguish Wixárika from other Southern Uto-Aztecan languages. These two strategies include the suffixes of referential continuity and possessive pronouns which encode the same or different subject. This research provides a detailed description of these resources, including their frequency and a preliminary observation of the grammaticalization process of the suffixes of referential continuity. Overall, the language exhibits patterns that differ from those observed in previous literature.
