TRACING THE EVOLUTION OF HIGHER NUMERALS IN INDO-EUROPEAN LANGUAGES: A PHYLOGENETIC COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS
Abstract
This study delves into the intricate evolution of higher numerals within the Indo-European language family using a phylogenetic comparative approach. Through a meticulous analysis of linguistic data from diverse Indo-European languages across different time periods, this research aims to uncover the typological changes and diachronic shifts that have shaped the expression of higher numerals. By applying computational methods to linguistic data, we construct a phylogenetic tree that visualizes the relationships between languages and their numerals. Our findings shed light on the patterns of numerical terminology evolution and provide insights into the cultural and cognitive factors that have influenced these linguistic developments.
