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 study presents the first systematic comparison of anaphoric uses of demonstratives in two
East Caucasian languages, Kina Rutul (Lezgic) and Mehweb Dargwa (Dargwa). Both languages
lack dedicated third-person pronouns and employ demonstratives anaphorically in both
pronominal and adnominal positions. Data from thirteen Kina Rutul and nine Mehweb Dargwa
Pear Stories show that the default demonstrative (in terms of ...

he article discusses the event structure of morphological causative in Khwarshi Proper dialect of the Khwarshi language (Tsezic< Avar-Ando-Tsezic<Nakh-Daghestanian). We also analyzed the semantic parameters of the morphological causative on -χ-/-k’- and compared them with the semantic parameters of the analytical causative construction. Note that a construction with a morphological causative can be either monoeventive ...

The purpose of this article is to demonstrate the ways speaker-oriented modality can be expressed in Khwarshi Proper (Tsezic<Avar-Ando-Tsezic<Nakh-Daghestanian). Our field data also serves to fill some data gaps in the grammatical sketch of Khwarshi Proper [Testelets, Khalilova in print]. In this article, we describe hortative, imperative, optative, preventive constructions and the jussive construction with ...

Equasimilative constructions belong to the semantic field of comparison,
but have been studied to a much less extent than comparative constructions.
There are practically no areal-typological studies in this area. This paper focuses on equasimilative constructions in Khwarshi proper (Nakh-Dagestanian).
Additionally, it provides an overview of equasimilative constructions
in the languages of the Caucasus to determine the parameters that ...

One of the common features of the Nakh-Daghestanian languages is the evidential opposition
between some of the past tense verb forms, which mark (in)direct access to the information. Khwarshi has two synthetic past forms that are traditionally considered to form this kind of opposition, but,
according to our data, it may in fact not be based on ...

The article discusses types of interpretation that Russian complex sentences with factive,implicative and interpretation verbs get under negation and modal operators. By default,the external negative and modal context affects only the main situation. However, one findsexceptions of this rule. We call ‘transparent readings’ those readings in which the exter-nal context affects semantically both the matrix ...

The article is dedicated to the typology of temporal mobility, that is the ability of verbal forms to have temporal opposition. Based on several Andic languages (< Avar-Andic-Tsezic < Nakh-Dagestanian), two formal subtypes of temporal mobility are introduced. The first subtype, — symmetric mobility, assumes that the basic and the past forms are equally marked, ...

This paper documents relative clause constructions in the polysynthetic Circassian languages of the West Caucasian family and attempts to establish diachronic links between them. It is shown that the Circassian languages possess both externally-headed and internally-headed relative clauses, with the latter having semantic heads that are interpreted outside of the relative clause. In addition, these ...

The paper presents an overview of numeral systems in Lezgic languages (East Caucasian) and discusses hypotheses about their diachronic development. Similarly to other branches of the East Caucasian family, languages of the Lezgic branch have either a decimal (base-10) or a vigesimal (base-20) system. Decimal systems are attested in languages and dialects in the northwestern ...

В работе дается обзор грамматикализованных глагольных конструкций с континуативным значением (‘все еще делать, продолжать делать’), отмечаемых в ряде языков лезгинской группы нахско-дагестанской семьи, однако до сих пор не привлекавших должного внимания исследователей. Особенностью четырех лезгинских языков является наличие стативного глагола, описывающего продолжение существования или нахождения в определенном месте (‘все еще быть, оставаться’), именно этот глагол ...

В абхазо-адыгских языках использование единиц, функционально параллельных вопросительным местоимениям, часто предполагает особую конструкцию (псевдоклефт), в которой описание ситуации включается в подлежащее, а «вопросительное местоимение» выступает как сказуемое. При этом абазинский язык может строить частные вопросы вообще без использования вопросительных местоимений. В работе аргументируется точка зрения, согласно которой в апсуанском говоре ашхарского диалекта абазинского языка в ...
