THis is a short overview of the linguistic features of the Indo-Iranian branch of the Indo-European language family, with a representative bibliography.
Indo-Iranian languages (another, outdated and quite misleading term is “Aryan”), which form a major branch of the Indo-European language family, are spoken by more than a billion of speakers occupying an immense territory from the Caucasus and southeastern Anatolia in the West to Northeast India and Bengal in the East and the Maldive Islands in the South. This grouping includes the Indo-Aryan, Iranian, Nūristānī (in earlier scholarship also called Kāfir), and Dardic branches.

This paper presents a first typological study of a particular type of imperative interjections, namely interjections with the meaning ‘here, take it!’ used by a speaker when they ask the addressee to take something from the speaker's hands (often combined with a gesture of giving). The sample of languages is both geographically and genealogically restricted ...

This paper presents a diachronic corpus study of constructions of the X znaet ‘X knows’ type. Such constructions have a long-written history, so revealing the peculiarities of their constructionalization process is of great importance also for the theory of idiomatization. First, we focus on the semantics and compatibility of the construction with the anchor Bog ...

Despite the fact that Andic languages (Avar-Andic < East-Caucasian) are widely recognised as agglutinating, their verbal systems barely demonstrate any agglutinating properties. The most important characteristic of these systems is the incomplete orthogonality of grammatical categories, and the related property of semantic non-additivity or morphological idiomaticity. In terms of morphotactic structure, different Andic systems can ...

Эта работа посвящена источникам возникновения адверсативных (противительных) показателей в языках мира.

The paper discusses the semantic and historical-cultural motivations for the gradual loss of the Indo-European designation of man, husband (*u̯ǐro-), which took place independently and in parallel in the Romance and Germanic languages, as well as its partial replacement with the lexeme having a general meaning 'human being.' The loss of Lat. vir during the ...

The constructions with the anchor [Noun-Nom Verb (meaning ‘to know’)] are very productive in Russian. In this article we show that variables such as Bog ‘God’, čert ‘devil’ and xer/xren ‘X/horseradish’ have some common patterns, as well as some shifts with exclusive patterns in semantics and constructionalization. ...

The widespread Uralic family offers several advantages for tracing prehistory: a firm absolute chronological anchor point in an ancient contact episode with well-dated Indo-Iranian; other points of intersection or diagnostic non-intersection with early Indo-European (the Late Proto-Indo-European-speaking Yamnaya culture of the western steppe, the Afanasievo culture of the upper Yenisei, and the Fatyanovo culture of ...
