Славянская лексика звукосимволического происхождения: проблемы этимологизации

Author(s): Zhivka Koleva-Zlateva / Language(s): Russian / Issue: 2/2008

According to etymological dictionaries of Slavic languages, as well as recently issued ones, there should not be any words of sound symbolic origin in these languages or their amount should be very small. This fact, however, contradicts the typological assumption of primitiveness and universality of phonetically motivated words. The present paper discusses two main points of the etymological analysis of words of sound symbolic origin: how to recognize them and how to define the groups of cognates between them in Slavic languages. In the recognition of sound-symbolic words, the reduplication should be considered as a most reliable criterion.In discussing the possibilities of defining the groups of cognates between words of sound- symbolic origin the following points are emphasized. The continuants of the different sound- symbolic origin in the different languages and dialects can have the same or similar phonetic forms and convey the same meaning, too. Since the similar reduplicated forms can be created as sound symbolic denominations of different meanings, blending of sound-symbolic groups of cognates is possible during the evolution. There exist parallel forms with full and partial re-duplication, which convey the same meaning of sound-symbolic origin. This fact supports the hypothesis according to which partial reduplication is historically simply a reduction of full reduplication.

Сленгът и другите социолекти в рамките на националния език

Author(s): Diana Ivanova / Language(s): Bulgarian / Issue: 102/2017

This paper is a part of a dissertation devoted to the slang and its uses in Bulgarian and Slovakian fiction literatures. It examines a portion of the non-literary language formations (social jargons, sociolects) within the national language, which formations are in a direct relation to slang and are frequently identified and mixed therewith. An attempt is made to differentiate, define, terminologically clarify and juxtapose individual social dialects/sociolects (professional dialects, jargons, argot, slang) by analyzing the points of contact and dissimilarities between them, as well as to establish the connections, interaction and relationships of slang with other non-literary national language formations. The author examines the literature on this matter with an emphasis on Bulgarian, Slovakian, and Czech linguistic research on the subject.

Словенский язык и словенская национальная, региональная и локальная идентичность

Author(s): Danila Zuljan Kumar / Language(s): Russian / Issue: 59/2014

Language constitutes an important part of identity; therefore, a definite relationship can be established between the stages of development of the national language and forms of identity. The formation and development of the Slovenian national language, starting in the late seventeenth century, during the period of National Awakening, and of Slovenian national identity can be divided into six stages or periods, all of which saw the social functions of the Slovenian language change. In the 1990’s, emphasis on Slovenian national identity reached its peak, at the same time that the effects of globalization became noticeable in Slovenia, increasing the attention of the Slovenians to their regional and local particularities and the diversity of their local dialects. The article focuses on the different forms of national, local and regional identities that have emerged during this period in Slovenia.

Словник Исторической Палеи по списку Синодального Собрания № 591 второй половины ХV века – глоттометрическая характеристика

Author(s): Tatyana Ilieva / Language(s): Russian / Issue: 5/2015

The present study is an attempt to apply statistical methods in investigating the vocabulary of Old Bulgarian on the basis of lexical material from the Historical Palaea. Tables and charts are used to present a glotometric characterization of the lexical material under study. A comparison is made with data from other Old Bulgarian written monuments that have already been the object of similar studies.

Словообразувателни модели на жителските имена (nomina habitatorum) в съвременния български и чешки език

Author(s): Tsvetanka Avramova / Language(s): Bulgarian / Issue: 51/2016

The article analyses the word-formation models (WFM) of the nomina habitatorum in Bulgarian and Czech. The term WFM is very similar to, but not conterminous with, the concept of word-formation type (WFT) as defined by Miloš Dokulil. WFT is understood here as superordinate in relation to WFM. WFT is defined by the same set of properties as WFM but differs from the latter according to the character of the formant; while in FM the character is physical (formal, based on sound), in WFT the character of the formant is functional and structural. The formant assigns the derivative to affixation, paradigmatic or composition word-formation pattern. As lexemes naming a person in accordance with a particular place, the nomina habitatorum constitute a subcategory within the word-formation category of nouns of belonging (nomina pertinentia). The word-formation meaning of nomina habitatorum can be represented by the paraphrase “X belongs to Y,” where X is a person and Y – a place in a broad sense.

Словоред и обстоятелствени пояснения за време и за място и посока в разговорната реч

Author(s): Stanislava Teofilova / Language(s): Bulgarian / Issue: 1/2017

The paper deals with the word order specificities of adverbial modifiers of time and of place and direction on two levels: from the perspective of the formal as well as of the information loaded word order of the Bulgarian oral speech. The high frequency of the two types of adverbial modifiers in the Bulgarian oral speech is statistically proven.

СОЦИОЛИНГВИСТИЧНИ ФАКТОРИ ЗА ЕДИН ЧАСТЕН СЛУЧАЙ НА БЪЛГАРСКО-РУМЪНСКА ИНТЕРФЕРЕНЦИЯ В ГОВОРА НА НОВО СЕЛО, ВИДИНСКО

Author(s): Hristina Deykova / Language(s): Bulgarian / Issue: 2/2017

The paper clarifies sociolinguistic factors in a particular case of grammatical interference between Bulgarian and Romanian in the dialect of the village of Novo Selo, Vidin district, concerning the biaspectual functioning of the Romanian verb borrowings adapted with formants -ùшъ(м), -łшъ(м) and -àшъ(м) in the Bulgarian dialect. The so-called Blueprint principle in the contact etymology is applied, which aims at identifying the type of contact situation and reconstructing it according to modern language contact studies.

Старобългарските релативи в исторически аспект

Author(s): Tatyana Slavova / Language(s): Bulgarian / Issue: 4/2005

The article studies the substitution of relative pronouns and adverbs of the anaphorical type (such as ёже, еже, яже) by relative pronouns of the interrogative *kw- type, and their further extension by adding the particles -то and -се. Following the records of classical old Bulgarian manuscripts and early Bulgarian translations (based on 11th–12th century copies), the article traces the beginning stage of this process in the context of the overall Indo-European tendency. It is argued that the reasons behind this transformation are the reduced function of -ёже as a relative pronoun as well as its development of an indeterminate meaning, which brought about the functional and semantic closeness between the two pronominal roots (relative and interrogative).

Стојан Новаковић о Утицајима на Српски Језик И Књижевност

Author(s): Mihailo Vojvodic / Language(s): Serbian / Issue: 51/2004

In his long scholarly career, while addressing a variety of themes from the past of the Serbian people, Stojan Novakovic never lost interest in the subjects of language, script, literature, religion and education. His interest in language goes back to his days as a lycée student, when he became one of the most talented pupils and collaborators of Djura Daničić. Novaković was particularly interested in the different external influences exerted on the Serbian language, literature and education and the consequences that this entailed for the Balkan Slav peoples. He wrote on this topic in a number of his works that he published as of the 1860’s, presenting facts attesting to prolonged manifest Byzantine influences, followed by Italian and then Turko-Arabic influences, to be ultimately supplanted by contemporary European ones. Novaković continued to work on issues of Serbian lanuage, literature and education, but with certain interruptions and in his later years, studying them individually rather than in an integrated and comprehensive manner, however. Unity could be achieved only through an “identity of religions” and there had been none of that ever since the Middle Ages. Therefore, Novaković’s message to the coming generations was that mistakes from the past should be well grasped in order to be avoided in the future. And, that it was necessary to turn to the future in which the positive examples of “great peoples and great civilizations” were to be followed.

Суфиксалномотивирани съществителни с абстрактно значение в текста на Египетския патерик

Author(s): Petko D. Petkov / Language(s): Bulgarian / Issue: 101/2016

The development of a new literary language requires elaboration of the system of abstract nouns. The use of abstract lexis, of theological terminology, and a big number of compound words differentiates the Old Bulgarian (Old Church Slavonic) literary vocabulary from every Slavic dialect in the 9th century and today. The present study of the abstract nouns formed with suffixes in the Egipetski Paterik sheds light on an early stage of the development of abstract lexis in the Old Bulgarian literary language. Such nouns characterize translator’s style and the challenges he met. This paper discusses the following types of abstract nouns in the Egipetski Paterik: abstract nouns of feminine gender with suffixes -ость, -ъınʜ, -ота/-ета, -тва, -ʜna, -ьва and neuter abstract nouns in -nʜѥ/-тʜѥ, -ʜѥ, -ьство и -ьствʜѥ. The semantics of the lexemes examined is discussed according to the context in which they are used. Further, the use of these lexemes in the Egipetski Paterik is juxtaposed with their use in three types of sources: the so-called classical Old Bulgarian (OCS) corpus from the 10th–11th centuries; texts originating from 10th-century Preslav that survive in later copies; and similar – in style and language – Old Bulgarian translations of paterica.

This paper deals with the word formation modes used in construction of male and female personal names recorded in villages located in the river Kosanica basin which is the largest tributary of the river Toplica. Materials for this paper were collected in the period between 1996 and 2006. Recorded onomastic materials belongs to 40 Kosanica villages, from Kuršumlijska Banja, Samokov and Krčmar to southern Kosanica villages Dobri Do, Trn, Trpeze, Sekirača, Vasiljevac and Merdare. More than 2355 male and female personal names have been collected. Our paper has been concerned with morphology and word formation processes which are used in structuring of the male and female personal names in the examined area.

Тенденции в (не)граматикализацията на старобългарския глагол мощи ʼмога, в състояние съм’

Author(s): Tatyana Slavova / Language(s): Bulgarian / Issue: 3/2015

The article studies two opposite tendencies in the development of the modal verb мощи (meaning ‘can, be able toʼ – on the one hand, its non-grammaticalization into grameme for expressing periphrastic future tense, and on the other, its grammaticalization into a grameme for expressing periphrastic prohibitive. The issue is discussed in the context of Old Bulgarian writing and the history of Bulgarian language as well as in comparison with other Indo-European languages.

Трансфер и интерференция при изучаването на български език като чужд от славяни

Author(s): Elena Krejcová / Language(s): Bulgarian / Issue: 3/2017

The linguistic phenomena we encounter in teaching Bulgarian as a foreign language are focused not only on the field of psycholinguistics, but also to the vast field of applied linguistics and linguistic pragmatics. Having on mind the genetic proximity between Slavic languages and the specific difficulties in studying them, we focus our attention on a not so typical linguistic interference, namely between very close – Slavic – languages, one of them is a mother, first language. In the proces of teaching of Bulgarian as a foreign language of Slavs even greater role has the comparative and confrontational analysis, because the aim is to highlight the differences between Bulgarian and other closely related languages that can be a prerequisite for any errors, distortions arising from language contacts observed by us in this specific psycholinguistic situation. The text reflects the problems of tranfer and interference between Czech and Bulgarian in the proces of their study. There are some defenitions of the proces of transfer and interference from psycholinguistical point of view and then language material with examples of the interference in the process of translation.
