New page

In ONG §3.9.6, Gerald Browne suggests that the future tense is a tense like the present, and the two preterite forms. This seems to be mistaken.

Synchronic evidence:

1) The paradigm is more "dirty" the other three

2) The future morpheme ''-(a)d'' seems to behave like aspectual suffixes like inchoative ''-(a)ń'' and causative ''-(a)r''

3) The attestation of a future preterite, i.e. ''-(a)d + -s''
P.QI I 11 i 7-8: papina … -kid'''-d-es'''-il
P.QI I 7 ii 15-16: eisanenappa ńodou ńokinka istaurocildō olleirimen'''-d-is'''-a-

Diachronic evidence:

1) In Bechhaus-Gerst 2011, she argues that the "Old Future" in Nobiin (formed with ''-d'') has a mainly aspectual, not temporal function.

2) The development of "innovative" future tenses in modern Nubian languages, like Kunuz with prefix ''bi-'', seems to point to the absence of a "proper" future tense in ON.
