Studies in the Verbal Morphology of Soqotri III/1: The Second Stem
Zeitschrift für Arabische Linguistik. 2019. Vol. 69. No. 1. P. 61–93.
The article describes the morphology and function of one of the derived stems, labelled as stem II, in Soqotri, a Modern South Arabian language. It includes the discussion of the conjugation of the strong verbs, of various types of weak verbs, of the verbs with mixed conjugation. The semantics of stem II also receives considerable attention.

Abstract: The article examines the characteristic features of the 13th century Spanish language (based on the collection of proverbs “Kalila and Dimna”), particularly the use of subjunctive mode: the future (Futuro del Subjuntivo) and the past (Imperfecto del Subjuntivo) of the conjunctive. Along with some other features of the Castilian romance morphological structure, the use ...

In the paper we argue that the discontinuous past interpretation is a conversational implicature, which rise can be explained by the following chain of reasoning. Natural contexts where the Retro-Aorist is used are clauses that need another clause in the same sentence. Thus, if the Retro-Aorist form is uttered and no other clause appears in ...

The present study considers the function of the pattern of the so-called stem IV, primarily associated with causatives, in Soqotri (Modern South Arabian). It focuses on the correlation between the semantics of the source verb and that of the derived verb, examines the semantic classes which are compatible with the causative morpheme, and establishes several ...

This is a short overview of the linguistic features (phonology, morphology, syntax, and lexicon) of the Indo-Aryan group of the Indo-Iranian branch of the Indo-European language family, with a representative bibliography.
The Indo-Aryan languages (sometimes also referred to, misleadingly and not quite correctly, as Indic, with special focus on Sanskrit) represent the largest group of the ...

The main goal of our paper is to give a first, general description of middle voice in Bantu. As will be shown, this language group has a set of verbal derivational morphemes that challenges some of the concepts related to the middle domain. First of all, as of yet no description has been found of a language ...

Semelfactive, delimitative, attenuative, and similar meanings are frequently combined in one marker across world languages forming a single semantic area. The article addresses the verbal attenuative in-al- / -alal / -ə̑ ldal in Hill Mari, looking into its morphonological distribution and polysemy. The marker allows for multiple (perfective) interpretations, including: delimitative (‘do P for a ...

Phasal polarity (PhP) is a cross-linguistic category which includes such values as ᴀʟʀᴇᴀᴅʏ, ɴᴏᴛ ʏᴇᴛ, sᴛɪʟʟ and ɴᴏ ʟᴏɴɢᴇʀ. This paper discusses morphologically bound markers of phasal polarity in Abaza, a polysynthetic Northwest Caucasian language. We show that the Abaza PhP affixes ‑χ’a ‘already’, -s (+ negation) ‘not yet’, -rḳʷa ‘still’ and -χ (+ negation) ...

The paper considers the grammatical expression of information source with past tense forms of the verb in the Nakh-Daghestanian languages. These languages are spoken on a relatively compact territory in the North Caucasus and, partly, in the Transcaucasian area. The area is part of a larger area ranging from the Balkan Peninsula to Central Asia, ...

The Caucasus is the place with the greatest linguistic variation in Europe. The present volume explores this variation within the tense, aspect, mood, and evidentiality systems in the languages of the North-East Caucasian (or Nakh-Daghestanian) family. The papers of the volume cover the most challenging and typologically interesting features such as aspect and the complicated ...

The paper discusses several general problems of present-day historical Altaistics, taking as a reference point the critical evaluation of two large monographs by Martine Robbeets — one on the Altaic origins of the Japanese language (Robbeets, Martine. 2005. Is Japanese related to Korean, Tungusic, Mongolic and Turkic? Wiesbaden: Harrassowitz) and another on the evidence that ...

For the first time after D. H. Müller’s pioneering studies of the 1900s, a large body of folklore texts in Soqotri becomes available to the Semitological scholarship. The language is spoken by ca. 100.000 people inhabiting the island Soqotra (Gulf of Aden, Yemen). Soqotri is among the most archaic Semitic languages spoken today, whereas the ...

In this article, I consider the inflection of property words in Archi (Lezgic, East Caucasian). While
property words show some similarities with verbs (and are indeed classified as a sybtype of verbs in Kibrik
et al.’s 1977 grammar of Archi), I argue that this similarity is too superficial to categorize them as verbs. I
first consider inflectional morphology ...
