Evidential Uses in the Spanish of Quechua Speakers in Peru.
Escobar, Anna Maria
Southwest Journal of Linguistics, v13 n1-2 p21-43 1994
Analysis of recordings of spontaneous speech of native speakers of Quechua speaking Spanish as a second language reveals that, using verbal morphological resources of Spanish, they have grammaticalized an epistemic marking system resembling that of Quechua. Sources of this process in both Quechua and Spanish are analyzed. (MSE)
