Ruwaza za kimofolojia za majina ya mahali ya Kikamba: Mtazamo wa mofolojia leksia
Keywords:
leksia, majina ya mahali, mofolojia, ruwaza, vigezoAbstract
Makala hii imechunguza ruwaza za majina ya mahali ya Kikamba kwa kuangalia vijenzi mbalimbali vinavyojenga majina hayo. Majina yaliyoshughulikiwa ni sehemu ya data iliyokusanywa kutoka Jimbo dogo la Makueni. Majina ya mahali na vijenzi vyake yamewasilishwa kwa kutumia majedwali na michoro msonge. Matokeo ya uchanganuzi huo yamedhihirisha kuwa asilimia kubwa ya majina ya mahali katika jamii ya Wakamba yameundwa kwa vijenzi mbalimbali ambavyo huungana kuyaunda. Vigezo hivyo vimechanganuliwa kimofolojia. Ukweli huu unapinga madai ya wanamuundo kama Agard (1984) kwamba majina ya mahususi kama ya mahali huundwa kwa mizizi tu, Makala hii imethibitisha kuwa vipo vipashio maalumu vinavyounda majina ya mahali.
