Title: Using Model-Theoretic Approaches to Uncover Linguistic Organization

Abstract: In this paper, we consider pluractional markers in Kaqchikel, Karuk, and Yurok. Like Balinese, each of these languages marks one type of pluractionality via reduplication, and a different type of pluractionality via non-reduplicative affixation. This paper serves as a proof-of-concept for applying model-theoretic approaches to language as a lens that can help us to recognize linguistic organization that is not apparent on the surface.
