Abstract:
This paper presents the effects of long-lasting and pervasive contact between two major language groups of Niger-Congo, both of which diverged relatively early from the parent stock. The influence has been asymmetrical: Mande has more deeply influenced Atlantic than vice versa. The details come from two profoundly influenced languages, Kisi, now completely surrounded by Mande, and Mmani, a closely related language, from which all speakers have switched to the Mande language Soussou. Le contact entre les locuteurs des langues atlantiques et les locuteurs des langues mande est de longue durée et profond. Les deux ensembles sont très différents typologiquement. À cause de cela on peut facilement identifier les effets du contact. En général ce sont les mande, plus militants et plus organisés, qui ont dominé les agriculteurs atlantiques dans leurs petits hameaux. Les conséquences linguistiques de cette asymétrie sont considérables, comme on le voit aux données du kisi et du mmani, deux langues sous l’influence profonde du mande.
