Proposal for encoding Myanmar characters for Karen and Kayah in the UCS

This is a proposal to add characters to the international character encoding standard Unicode for minority languages using the Myanmar script. These additions were published in Unicode Standard version 5.1 in March 2008. This proposal includes characters for Western Pwo Karen, Eastern Pwo Karen, Geba Karen, and Kayah. Some changes were made after the proposal was written, so users should consult the latest Unicode code charts for the most up-to-date repertoire, accessible from:

On the change to verb-medial word order in proto-Chinese : evidence from Tibeto-Burman

In attempting to reconstruct the morphosyntax of Proto-Sino-Tibetan, one of the most basic questions to be answered is what was the unmarked word order of the proto-language? Chinese, Bai, and Karen are verb-medial languages, while all of the Tibeto-Burman languages except for Bai and Karen have verb-final word order. lf these languages are all related, as we can assume from lexical correspondences, then either Chinese, Bai and Karen changed from verb-final to verb-medial word order, or the other Tibeto-Burman languages changed trom verb-medial to verb-final order. How we answer the question of which languages changed their word would then give us the answer to the question of word order in Proto-Sino-Tibetan
