Egophoricity as interpretable agreement
Типология морфосинтаксических параметров. 2021. Vol. 4. No. 2. P. 37–61.

This paper deals with egophoricity in Mehweb Dargwa, an East Caucasian language. The main proposal of this paper is that egophoricity should be analyzed as a syntactic phenomenon, due to its sensitivity to syntactic locality in Mehweb. The syntactic part of egophoricity is argued to involve two probes: a person probe and an index probe, the first being relevant for realization of egophoric morphology and the second for egophoric interpretation.

This paper presents the first in-depth corpus-based study of a previously overlooked syntactic variation in Russian: the competition between juxtapositional (Nominative) and possessive-like (Genitive) encoding of the second noun (the term) in specificational constructions (e.g., ponjatie čest’ (notion.NOM honor.NOM) vs. ponjatie česti (notion.NOMhonor.GEN) ‘the notion of honor’). While typological research has established cross-linguistic preferences for one encoding strategy over another, intralinguistic variation ...

The article focuses on the study of the onym as a cognitive stimulus that facilitates the decoding of the language of urban space across two ethnic groups. The research is grounded in the analysis of results from an onomastic associative experiment, aimed at identifying the dominant types of associative responses to anthroponyms, oikodonyms, hodonyms, and ...

The study focuses on a previously unrecorded model of split agreement in the mirative paradigm in Kazym Khanty. Split agreement is found when comparing active and passive mirative constructions, as well as
in a limited set of uses of non-finite forms. In the passive voice, unlike the active voice, the 3rd person is unmarked and the ...

This article describes verbs denoting motion of liquid and dry substances in Slavic languages. The research explores how Slavic languages lexicalize different situations within the semantic field of substance motion and identifies the parameters that drive this lexicalization (e.g., type of substance, intensity and quantization of flow, and causation). Adjacent grammatical phenomena such as argument ...

Впервые делается попытка рассмотреть особенности фанфикшн как акта продуктивной рецепции, возникшего на основе цикла романов Терри Пратчетта о Плоском мире в России. Проведенный анализ показывает, что прежде всего авторы фанфиков стремятся передать стилистику и комическое начало оригинального цикла Пратчетта, вне зависимости от жанра и формата создаваемых ими произведений. Фикрайтеры наиболее часто обращаются к таким форматам, ...

This study investigates mixed languages, with a specific focus on their lexical characteristics. It proposes and substantiates the hypothesis that the degree of lexical mixing in such languages — reflected in the prevalence of doublets and the distribution of vocabulary between source languages — is linked to the specific pattern of their emergence, rather than ...

The majority of studies on the metrical aspects of Olga Sedakova’s poetry focus on the formal elements of versification, rarely exploring the substantive possibilities of the chosen metres. This paper fills this gap by analyzing the unified narrative of the four-foot amphibrach, tracing its development in Russian poetry from V.A. Zhukovsky to O.A. Sedakova. At ...

I argue that particular restrictions on the recoverability of elided negation in fragment answers in negative-concord languages follow from the semantics of questions. Drawing parallels with other ellipsis phenomena, I also highlight the role of Agree in making certain elided heads recoverable. This invalidates a major argument against the analysis of negative-concord items as universal ...

Agreement is a phenomenon that spans multiple areas of linguistic theorizing. On the one hand, agreement has been regarded as purely syntactic/morphological phenomenon because it has no clear contribution to meaning. However, this clashes with the observation that agreement may also influence interpretation in subtle ways, allowing languages to express nuances in meaning that would ...
