Question 18:
You are a linguist specializing in Yauyos Quechua. You are given a sentence along with its morpheme breakdown, gloss, and translation. Words are separated by spaces, and morphemes are separated by hyphens. However, a word and its gloss are missing and represented by an underscore. Based on your understanding, please choose the most appropriate option. 
Sentence (with missing item): alma-yuq-pis ___
Gloss (with missing item): soul-POSS-ADD ___
The English translation of this sentence is:She might be accompanied by a soul.
Here is a relevant knowledge point for this example, with the related morphemes and glosses masked: In those cases in which \phono{-ik} and \phono{-iki} modify \phono{-trI}, they generally correspond to increases in certainty of conjecture: a \phono{-tr-ik} conjecture is interpreted as more certain than a \phono{-trI\uo} conjecture; and a \phono{-tr-iki} conjecture is interpreted as more certain still. Recall that under the scope of \phono{-trI}, present-tense conditional verbs generally receive existential epistemic interpretations while past-tense-conditional as well as simple-present- and simple-past-tense verbs generally receive universal epistemic interpretations. In the case of the first, \phono{-k} and \phono{-ki} yield increasingly strong possibility readings; in the case of the second, third and fourth, increasingly strong necessity readings. So, under the scope of \phono{trI-\uo}, the present-tense conditional \phono{wañu-ru-n-man} [die-\lsc{urgt}-3-\lsc{cond}] ‘could die’ receives something like a weak possibility reading; under \phono{-tr-iki}, in contrast, the same phrase receives something like a strong possibility reading. Consultants explain that the \phono{-\uo} form might be used in a situation where the person was sick but it remained to be seen whether he would die; the \phono{-iki} form, in contrast, might be used in a situation where the person was gravely ill and far more likely to die. Similarly, under the scope of \phono{-trI-\uo}, the simple past tense \phono{wañu-rqa-\uo} [die-\lsc{pst}-3] ‘died’ would receive something like a weak necessity reading: it is highly probable but not completely certain that the person died. In contrast, under the scope of \phono{-tr-iki}, the same phrase would receive something like a strong necessity reading: it is very highly probable, indeed, virtually certain, that the person died. Consultants explain that a speaker might use \phono{-\uo} form if she knew, say, that the person, who had been very sick, still had not returned two months after having been transported down the mountain to a hospital in Lima. In contrast, that same speaker might use the \phono{-iki} form if she had, additionally, say, heard funeral bells ringing and seen two of person’s daughters crying in the church. (\ref{GloB:Almayuqpis}) and~(\ref{GloB:Anuyanna}) give naturally-occurring examples. In~(\ref{GloB:Almayuqpis}), the speaker\tss{i} makes a present-tense conditional \phono{-trI-\uo} conjecture: She\tss{j} could possibly be with a soul (\ie,~accompanied by the spirit of a recently deceased relative). The speaker made this conjecture after hearing the report of a single piece of evidence --~that a calf had spooked when she\tss{j} came near. Surely, whether or not a person is walking around with the spirit of a recently dead relative hovering somewhere close by is a hard thing to judge, even with an accumulation of evidence. In this case, only the weak \phono{-\uo} form is licensed. In~(\ref{GloB:Anuyanna}), in contrast, the speaker makes a simple-present-tense \phono{-tr-iki} conjecture: A certain calf (a friend’s) must be being weaned. The speaker, having spent all but a half dozen of her 70-odd years raising goats, sheep, cows and alpacas, would not just be making an educated guess as to whether a calf was being weaned. She knows the signs. In this situation, the strong \phono{-iki} form is licensed.\\
