The paper gives a detailed description of seven spatial nominal cases in the Beserman dialect of Udmurt, which do not exist in the literary language, namely, six personal local cases and the recessive. These cases are not fully grammaticalized and exhibit some properties rather more characteristic of relational nouns, which is their grammaticalization source. Moreover, we show that the approximative also shares some of these properties. Nevertheless, we demonstrate that the aforementioned units have enough case-like properties to be treated as (undergrammaticalized) cases. The study is based on our own field data collected in Udmurtia in 2010-2016.

This article analyses the semantics and syntactic behaviour of the Old High German and Old Saxon pronominal adverb thâr (“there”), the morphological status of which is often equated with the status of the West Germanic relative particle *þe in relative clauses. OS thâr has a syntactic autonomy and a consistent deictic role in the opposition ...

While space-time metaphor is a source of regular prepositional and adverbial polysemy in many languages, spatial deictic words develop temporal meanings much more rarely. However, space-time metaphor in deixis is not as exotic as it might seem, as demonstrated by the Russian spatial proximity marker tut ‘here,’ which develops a meaning of temporal proximity. Its ...

The paper presents a corpus-driven study of the Russian PP-based degree modifier do uzhasa (lit. ‘to horror’), suggesting a two-stage grammaticalization path. The first stage (presumably, XVIII–XIX c.) involves subjectification, while during the second stage, subjective readings give rise to intensifier readings through conceptual metonymy. Both stages see a host class expansion. This process is ...

Grammaticalization is often considered to reflect frequent co-occurrence of certain elements in certain positions. This paper tests the frequency-based account of the grammaticalization of person agreement, comparing the grammaticalization of person agreement in Tabasaran, a Lezgic language, with the syntax of free pronouns in closely related Agul. Our assumption is that the situation in Agul, ...

This paper describes the nominal morphology of the Mehweb language. It deals with the following issues: noun structure, plural formation, the oblique stem, case formation and use, and irregular locatives. In this paper I analyse both the structure and the semantics of these features. The description is mostly based on the existing studies of the ...

In this article, we study the phenomenon of grammaticalization in the syntactic segment of infinitival structures in Modern German. Different points of view regarding the parameters of grammaticalization are examined and compared. Based on the criteria considered, infinitive structures that tend to be grammaticalized are selected and the semantic, morphological and syntactic changes in these ...

Статья посвящена конструкции с показателем tip ‘говорить.CV’ как основному способу передачи чужой речи в башкирском языке. Рассматриваются две стратегии выражения участника в составе чужой речи «пряморечная» и «косвенноречная». Основное внимание уделено ограничениям, которые накладывает выбор одной из стратегий на способ выражения участника, и вопросу о том, чем определяется сам выбор стратегии. Выдвигается гипотеза о том, ...

This paper describes a group of derivational verbal suffixes in Abaza, a polysynthetic language belonging to the Northwest Caucasian family. For each suffix I propose a short description of its most remarkable features. In particular, I discuss the polysemy of the refactive and assertive markers and their interaction with the event structure of the verb. ...

The paper proposes a corpus analysis of a Russian adjective slavnyj. Its semantic evolution is analyzed through its distribution in XVIII-XXI centuries texts, including the main types of its usages, its main meanings, and possible shifts from one meaning to another. It is shown that the initial semantics of ‘being famous’ that the adjective slavnyj ...

The paper deals with one path of the semantic evolution of future anterior. Following this path, future anterior loses its retrospective function but preserves future time reference. This results in the formation of a new future tense from the old future anterior. Such an evolution took place in the history of some Slavic languages (Slovenian, ...

Numeral ‘one’ and demonstratives are usual sources of grammaticalization of articles in the languages of the world. Rutul numeral sa ‘one’ and demonstratives are widely used in texts in functions close to those of articles. Rutul data show that even though it is questionable whether sa can be considered an article, it can be considered ...

Udi (East Caucasian) possesses several means of expressing the meaning ‘other’, namely (i) the combination of a (usually distal) demonstrative with a numeral (usually ‘one’), arguably calqued from Azerbaijani, (ii) the expression originating from a combination of a demonstrative with the noun ‘arm, side’ and (iii) borrowed adjectives. It is shown that the morphological properties ...

A crosslinguistically unusual case of morphological fusion, in which two clauses fuse morphologically in the absence of preceding syntactic fusion or clause union, is found in the East Caucasian language Agul.
