%X This paper provides description and analysis of the morphology of <br>Tomoip, an Austronesian language spoken on the island of New Britain in Papua <br>New Guinea. The nominal morphology of Tomoip includes clitics and affixes that <br>designate grammatical number, narrow the semantics of the noun, and indicate <br>possession, among other functions. The verbal morphology includes clitics and <br>affixes that index subject arguments, encode mood, and signal or increase valency. <br>This paper also provides description of adjectives, numerals, quantifiers, pronouns, <br>and several function words and particles in the language. <br><br> <br><br> <br><br><br>
