These are not person markers, but rather are used by speakers to portray their involvement in states of affairs as active, agentive participants (<jats:sc>ego)<\/jats:sc> versus other types of involvement (<jats:sc>non-ego)<\/jats:sc>. They interact with person and argument structure, but through pragmatic \u2018person sensitivities\u2019 rather than through grammatical agreement. Not only does this pattern appear in verbal morphology, it also can be observed in alternations of predicate construction types and case alignment, helping to show how egophoric marking is a pervasive element of Cha'palaa's linguistic system. This chapter gives a first account of egophoricity in Cha\u2019palaa, beginning with a discussion of person sensitivity, egophoric distribution, and issues of flexibility of marking with respect to degree of volition or control. It then focuses on a set of intransitive experiencer (or \u2018endopathic') predicates that refer to internal states which mark egophoric values for the undergoer role, not the actor role, showing \u2018quirky\u2019 accusative marking instead of nominative case. It concludes with a summary of how egophoricity in Cha'palaa interacts with issues of argument structure in comparison to a language with person agreement, here represented by examples from Cha\u2019palaa\u2019s neighbor Ecuadorian Highland Quechua.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1075\/tsl.118.09flo","type":"book-chapter","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,4,13]],"date-time":"2018-04-13T09:08:38Z","timestamp":1523610518000},"page":"269-304","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Egophoricity and argument structure in Cha\u2019palaa"],"prefix":"10.1075","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9739-2914","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Simeon","family":"Floyd","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidad San Francisco de Quito\/ Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1757","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,4,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"CIT0377","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1093\/oso\/9780199263882.001.0001","volume-title":"Evidentiality","author":"Aikhenvald","year":"2004"},{"key":"CIT0378","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1515\/lity-2012-0017"},{"key":"CIT0379","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1075\/tsl.46"},{"issue":"1","key":"CIT0380","first-page":"65","article-title":"The \u2018heart\u2019 of things: A conceptual metaphoric analysis of heart and related body parts in Thai, Japanese and English","volume":"20","author":"Berendt","year":"2011","journal-title":"Intercultural Communication Studies"},{"issue":"2","key":"CIT0381","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.32655\/LTBA.23.2.01","article-title":"Introduction: Person and evidence in Himalayan languages","volume":"23","author":"Bickel","year":"2000","journal-title":"Linguistics of the Tibeto-Burman Area"},{"key":"CIT0382","first-page":"1","article-title":"Verb agreement and epistemic marking: A typological journey from the Himalayas to the Caucasus","volume-title":"Chomolangma, Demawend und Kasbek: Festschrift f\u00fcr Roland Bielmeier zu seinem 65.
