‘Balkan Hospitality Opens Doors: Studying Dialects on the Verge of Extinction
You cannot study spoken dialects from books. Instead, you need to go to a village, seek out its elders, and earn the trust of local residents before you can record hours of spontaneous stories. This is how Natalia Muravleva, Associate Professor at the Faculty of Humanities, conducts her research. Her internship in Serbia continued her long-standing study of dialects spoken by Macedonian settlers. In this interview, she discusses how diaspora cultural centres help researchers reach informants, why native speakers need to be interviewed only in their own language (otherwise, as she puts it, they may 'break'), and how a single field season helped her finalise her monograph. She also shares warm memories of autumn in Belgrade and of colleagues with whom grammar can be discussed in three languages at once.

Scientists Train Neural Network to Generate Process Plans from 3D Models
Researchers at the HSE FCS AI and Digital Science Institute have developed CAD2TechSpec, a framework that converts 3D models of mechanical parts into machining process plans—step-by-step instructions for machine tools. The solution aims to reduce the time required for the design and preparation of technical process documentation in mechanical engineering, aircraft manufacturing, and other high-tech industries. The study findings have been published in PeerJ Computer Science.

Biologists Discover 'Molecular Fingerprint' of Preeclampsia
Researchers at HSE University employed a new method to model hypoxia in placental cells during pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia and identified molecular markers of tissue hypoxia. Since hypoxia is one of the key mechanisms underlying preeclampsia, these findings are important for a more accurate and timely diagnosis of the disease and for the development of effective treatment methods. The paper has been published in Placenta.

Three sources of head effects

P. 27–51.
Yury Lander

This paper develops the claim that head properties arise (at least) due to one of the three factors: (i) the higher position of an element in a compositional structure, (ii) the informational prominence, and (iii) the development of a construction from an appositive(-like) structure. These factors are logically independent and may lead to the assignment of head properties to different elements of a construction. As a result, it is more accurate to speak not of the heads but rather of head effects, which may – but need not – concentrate around a single component of a construction.

Apposition (Appositional Constructions)
Natalia N. Logvinova, , in: Encyclopedia of Slavic Languages and Linguistics Online.: Brill, 2025. Ch. 11.
Two types of appositional phrases are distinguished in Slavic languages: close and loose. With close constructions, the issues of syntactic headedness and optional case concord between the parts are discussed. Loose appositions are functionally different from close appositions, having a role comparable to secondary predication. ...

Towards a typology of specificational constructions
Skripka N., STUF - Language Typology and Universals 2024 Vol. 77 No. 2 P. 189–233
The present work is devoted to the syntax of specificational constructions with proper names within a typological perspective. The provided typology is based on the results obtained from the analysis of grammar descriptions and available corpus data for 94 languages. The paper discusses the morphosyntactic means that languages use to express specification, namely juxtaposition, attribution, and ...

Таксономия черт личности, основанная на прилагательных русского языка
Mishkevich A., Shchebetenko S., Kalugin A. et al., Сибирский психологический журнал 2024 № 91 С. 60–80
The article presents taxonomy of personality traits based on Russian adjectives. As per sonality structures derived from adjectives have been widespread worldwide, the identifica tion of such a structure for the Russian language would open up possibility of applying global taxonomies like the Big Five and HEXACO to the Russian-language context. Participants were 812 Russian residents; after removing unreliable ...

This paper provides a survey of number agreement in the East Caucasian languages and languages of other language families in contact with East Caucasian. For a sample of 59 idioms I considered number agreement strategies of adjectives in the attributive position and established what factors license agreement in these idioms. Besides, I assessed the weight ...

К семантической типологии адъективной деривации в тунгусо-маньчжурских языках
Pimenova N., Известия РАН. Серия литературы и языка 2023 Т. 82 № 1 С. 24–36
The article deals with parameters for the study of adjectival derivation from the point of view of semantic typology. The bases of semantic typology of word formation and classification of derived adjectives are considered. It is shown that the parameters of “Eurocentric” standard classifications are shifted towards formal-content samples (derivative formant ~ formant value). The Tungus-Manchu languages demonstrate ...

Дом, который построил Кэрролл: регресс и адоптация в формальном обосновании
Dragalina-Chernaya E., Логические исследования 2022 Т. 28 № 1 С. 27–49
Статья посвящена регрессу обоснования, описанному Кэрроллом в эссе «Что Черепаха сказала Ахиллу». Дискуссии о регрессе обоснования, начавшиеся задолго до его описания Кэрроллом и уходящие корнями в проблематику топического обоснования в античной и средневековой логике, продолжаются до сих пор. Большинство исследователей согласно, однако, с тем, что ключевой причиной бесконечного регресса является превращение правила вывода в дополнительную ...

Рождение смысла: концептуальные основания семантики английских прилагательных
Antonova M., М.: Изд-во РГГУ, 2021.
This book introduces a method for modelling cognitive foundation of the semantics of English adjectives. The study focuses on three adjectival categories, in particular, “Mental qualities of human beings”, “Moral qualities of human beings” and “Characteristics of human beings’ appearance”. The results of the study show that the human mind peculiarity to interpret the world via antinomies rules the interpretation of ...

Типология лексики. Компьютерные методы и инструменты
Ryzhova D., СПб.: Алетейя, 2020.
Лексическая типология – область лингвистики, которая занимается сопоставительным анализом значений слов в разных языках, – на сегодняшний день добилась больших успехов: разработаны методики сбора и анализа материала, описан целый ряд семантических полей. Однако некоторые методологические ограничения по-прежнему не преодолены: процесс сбора данных очень трудоемок, что сказывается либо на объемах и представительности языковых выборок, либо на ...

Gradable Predicates in Russian Sign Language
Aksenov K., / NRU HSE. Series WP BRP "Linguistics". 2019. No. 90.
This paper aims at describing the syntactic and semantic properties of gradable predicates in Russian Sign Language (RSL). Property signs in RSL, such as big or beautiful, generally behave similarly to stative predicates. However, their compatibility with the degree modifiers and aspectual markers shows that they significantly differ from other stative verbs. Thus, they can ...

Typology of Nominalisation of Adjectives in East Caucasian
Fedorenko Anastasia, Iran and the Caucasus 2019 Vol. 23 No. 4 P. 369–379
Traditionally, functioning of major classes of lexical items is described as follows. Nouns prototypically function as arguments, but can also serve as predicates and attributes; verbs are normally used as predicates, but can also appear for arguments and attributes; and adjectives are categorically attributes, while secondary they can be used as predicates. The question arises, ...
