Curriculum vitae

Jenneke van der Wal was born in Jos, Nigeria, on 19 December 1981. She spent her childhood in different parts of the Netherlands and attended the Carolus Clusius College in Zwolle from 1994 to 2000. In 1998 she participated in the Model European

Parliament in The Hague and Madrid. After secondary school she studied African linguistics at Leiden University and graduated in 2004. She was appointed as assistent in opleiding (doctoral researcher) in the NWO project “Word order and morphological marking in Bantu”, under supervision of prof. dr. Lisa Cheng and prof. dr. Thilo Schadeberg. Within this project she focused on the conjoint/disjoint distinction in Makhuwa and conducted fieldwork on this language during three fieldwork periods in Mozambique. Several articles and this dissertation are the result of that research. In 2007 and 2008 Jenneke was the representative of the PhD candidates in the University Council of Leiden University.

Relative verb forms only occur in a subset of the conjugations, namely the basic conjugations, which form conjoint/disjoint pairs in the non-relative: present, present
