This paper presents a description of three classes of lexemes in Kina Rutul (Lezgic, East Caucasian): spatial adverbs, adverbial postpositions and postpositions proper. These classes overlap in majority of East Caucasian languages. I suggest criteria of distinguishing these classes of lexemes from each other. The description includes inflection of the lexemes, their etymology and syntactic properties.

This paper discusses the syntactic properties of the general perfective converb in Rutul. It can head either an independent predication or a subordinate clause. Clausal relations tests applied to the converb suggest that, when combined with another clause, it may be either coordinate or subordinate. Furthermore, the general covnerb may either fall or not to ...

The paper provides a description of nominal inflection in Kina Rutul, a variety of the Rutul language (< Lezgic < Nakh Daghestanian). The description is based on three concepts of paradigmatic classification: class of inflectional equivalence, inflectional type and paradigmatic effect. Class of inflectional equivalence describes main patterns of concatenation between root, case / number ...

Greek adverbs are often claimed to have almost completely lost the ability to govern the genitive case, which is replaced by prepositional phrases with the accusative. Nevertheless, the corpus study presented in the article demonstrates that some low-frequent spatial adverbs δεξιά/αριστερά ‘on the right/left’ and βόρεια/νότια/ανατολικά/δυτικά ‘in the north/south/east/west’ retain the ability to govern genitive ...

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 ...

One of the diachronic sources of postpositions in East Caucasian languages are relational nouns, which is a cross-linguistically frequent situation. This study attempts to cover the differences and commonalities in the semantic group of nouns attested as lexical sources of postpositions across East Caucasian. Typologically, nouns of the following semantic groups are the most typical ...

This paper considers temporal meanings of Russian spatial adverbs and adjectives. We demonstrate the asymmetry between the temporal meanings of proximal and distal spatial words and analyze its semantic sources. One of the main manifestations of this asymmetry is the preferred future reference in the words denoting closeness (cf. blizkie kanikult ‘close vacations’ = ‘holidays ...

Aims and Objectives: We assess whether data on lexical borrowings obtained through field elicitation may point back not only to a specific donor language but also to its specific regional variety, and hence whether these data are a reliable tool for reconstructing unknown historical patterns of interaction between ethnic (sub-)groups.
Methodology: We use quantitative analysis of ...

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 ...

In Bagvalal (East Caucasian), native place names show strongly reduced morphological inflection. They combine with spatial suffixes identical to those used on nouns and spatial adverbs and with attributive and plural suffixes identical to those of nominal genitive and plural and thus have mixed adverbial nominal morphology. Place names are unmarked in spatial function but ...

The topic of this paper is suffixal number agreement in the Andi language. The plural suffix ‑(V)l has not previously been treated as a unified morphological phenomenon in the Andi grammars. The purpose of the paper is to fill in this gap. A list of possible targets of number agreement is provided, among them nominal dependents, verbs ...

The goal of this paper is to analyze and reassess the criteria according to which a class of postpositions is distinguished in the Beserman dialect of Udmurt. This class is traditionally divided into inflected and non-inflected postpositions. Analysis of syntactic and morphosyntactic properties of these two subclasses shows that items traditionally labeled as inflected postpositions ...

P(reposition)-stranding is typologically rare. Nevertheless, many languages exhibit phenomena that look like P-stranding (Campos 1991, Poplack, Zentz, and Dion 2012) or involve P-stranding under common theorizing (see Philippova 2014 and references therein). These studies argue that these are not instances of P-complement movement and provide alternative analyses. This squib addresses Russian prepositions that can be postposed to and ...

The paper presents a description and a discussion of adnominal possessive constructions in Tanti Dargwa, a Northeast Caucasian language spoken in Daghestan. While at first glance these constructions look quite typical for the family, on a closer inspection it turns out that they display at least two typologically non-trivial phenomena. First, Tanti Dargwa manifests a ...

The paper is a survey of all available descriptive data on a rare agreement pattern observed in East Caucasian (Nakh-Daghestanian) languages under which nominal dependents take different forms depending on whether their head is in the nominative case or any other case. I show that, depending on the language, “agreement in obliqueness” is attested in ...

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 ...

In Russian, adverbs establish a zone of accentual variation, reflected in modern orthoepic dictionaries, which qualify a few accentual patterns of some adverbs as robust Russian pronunciation, for instance, до́сыта and досы́та, высо́ко and высоко́. This article investigates the reasons of stress shifts in adverbs and their accentual variation in Russian poetic tradition of the 19-20th centuries. The material used is the ...
