Some current and future work in phylogenetic approaches to language history and diversity
Human languages are characterized by great amount of linguistic
diversity but also by a great amount of interdependence through
genealogical relations and geographic affinities. In the past,
linguistic typology has attempted to avoid the confound introduced by
these interdependencies by selective sampling, taking only a single
language from a set of related languages or area. Phylogenetic methods -

Grambank is the name of a database of structural (typological)

to WALS (http://wals.info) but different from it in design and
practice. Grambank is a collaborative and on-going project that
currently holds data for up to 200 features on over 850 languages,
but aims to reach some 3 000 languages in the future.

Tonal Case: A Mystery from Northeastern Africa
Tonal case is an extremely rare linguistic phenomenon whereby case
(i.e. the marking of dependent nominals, c.f. Blake 2001) is coded
solely or primarily by tone (i.e. pitch or F0, c.f. Yip 2002). The
largest concentration of languages employing tonal case systems is in
northeastern Africa, centering around the borders between present day
Kenya, Ethiopia, Sudan, and South Sudan (König 2008). An ad -
