The Semantics of Evidentiality and Epistemic Modality in Avar Chapter 6 The Semantics of Evidentiality and Epistemic Modality in Avar Diana Forker 1 Introduction Avar (ISO 639–3 ava) is one of the larger Nakh-Daghestanian (East Caucasian) languages. The number of Avar speakers can be estimated at around 800,000.1 Traditionally, Avars live in the central and western parts of Daghestan, and there are also Avar communities in Georgia and in northern Azerbaijan. In the last 150 years many Avars have migrated to Turkey2 and to various parts of Russia. Avar can be roughly divided into a northern and a southern dialectal group. Literary Avar has been developed from an Avar koiné called bolmac’ (‘common language’, from bo ‘people, society, community’ + -l genitive case and mac’ ‘lan- guage’) used by speakers of northern varieties for interdialectal communica- tion. Avar also served as lingua franca for other Daghestanian ethnic groups such as Andic and Tsezic people and has left many traces in their languages. Avar is one of the 14 official languages of Daghestan. It is taught in schools; there are a number of newspapers and journals, radio and TV programs and nowadays many Internet sites (Wikipedia in Avar, two Avar corpora,3 Radio Free Europe in Avar,4 etc.). Important publications on the Avar language are, among others, Bokarev (1949), Saidov (1967), Charachidzé (1981), Alekseev & 1 According to the 2010 census, 844,513 people in the Russian Federation name Avar as their mother tongue, but only 831,488 say that they are ethnically Avar (http://www.gks.ru/free_ doc/new_site/perepis2010/croc/perepis_itogi1612.htm). The difference might be due to the fact that many speakers of Andic and Tsezic languages learn Avar as a subject called ‘mother tongue’ in school and therefore perhaps indicate Avar as their ‘mother tongue’ in the census. 2 The only description of Avar in a common European language other than Russian is Charachidzé’s (1981) grammar of Hunzaq Avar (that is close to Standard Avar) as spoken by migrants in Turkey in the 1960s and 1970s. 3 http://baltoslav.eu/avar/ and http://web-corpora.net/AvarCorpus/. 4 http://www.radioerkenli.com/. © koninklijke brill nv, leiden, 2018 | doi 10.1163/9789004361805_008 Evidentiality and Epistemic Modality in Avar 189 Ataev (1998), Madieva (1967, 1981, 2000), Mallaeva (2007), Alekseev et al. (2014) and Gimbatov (Ms). In this paper, I will analyze evidentiality and epistemic modality in Standard Literary Avar based on data from the literature, elicitation and internet sources. The data is transliterated from the Avar Cyrillic orthography (thus, certain phonemic contrasts that are not marked in the orthography are also not transliterated). From a morphological point of view, Avar is agglutinative with some ele- ments of fusion. It has four grammatical cases (absolutive, ergative, dative, genitive) and 15 spatial cases. Nouns can be divided into three genders (mas- culine, feminine, and neuter) that are usually not marked on the nouns them- selves but show up through gender agreement on many verbs, adjectives, certain pronouns and some other agreement targets. The agreement affixes, which can appear as prefixes or suffixes, and very occasionally as infixes, are w (masculine singular), j (feminine singular), b (neuter singular) and l/r (plural). There is no person agreement in Standard Avar (but see Section 3.3 below). The language has a rich inventory of verb forms. The finite synthetic verb forms are the present with the suffixes -(u)la / -una), the future with the suf- fixes -(i)la / -ina and the aorist -(a)na. Many tense/aspect/mood oppositions are expressed by means of analytic verb forms. Non-finite verb forms include participles, general and specialized converbs, the infinitive (used as citation form in this paper and in all available dictionaries; suffix -ize / -ze / -ine) and the masdar (deverbal noun). A number of them (present participle, perfective converb, and infinitive) are used for the formation of analytic verb forms. With respect to the topic of this paper, evidentiality and epistemic modality, it is especially the past participle and the perfective converb that are of primary relevance. 2 Evidentiality in Avar I follow the common definition of evidentiality as the linguistic encoding of the information source (cf. Aikhenvald 2004: 3) and the commonly assumed subdivisions within the realm of evidentiality between direct and indirect evi- dentials according to whether the information source of the speaker is direct because s/he attended the situation that s/he is referring to or whether the in- formation source is indirect. Furthermore, we can distinguish various subtypes of indirect evidentiality such that we arrive at the following categories (Willett 1988; Aikhenvald 2004; Plungian 2010):.

  • Languages, DNA, Relationship and Contacts
    S. A. Burlak Institute of Oriental Studies, Moscow Languages, DNA, relationship and contacts In this paper, language contacts are classified according to their results that can be observed by means of historical and comparative linguistics. Various types of bilingual contacts and of language shift are discriminated; they differ in the way they affect vocabulary, grammar and phonetics. These differences are connected with the demographic situation; thus, looking at a language that underwent contact influence, one can say what type of contact could have produced such results. Such information about prehistoric communities can help to reconcile linguistic evidence with archaeological and genetic data in order to produce a more detailed picture of the history of peoples and their languages. Keywords: language relationship, language contacts, language shift. In the beginning of the 20th century, Gustaf Kossinna (Kossinna 1911) put forward the hy- pothesis that material culture correlates with language and ethnicity, which is now known to be wrong (see e.g., Kuz’menko 2011). Ethnic identity need not fully correlate with either lan- guage or with genetic features, although there are, indeed, numerous cases of such a coinci- dence. There have been numerous attempts to reconcile linguistic data with archeological and genetical evidence (see especially Blench & Spriggs 1997, 1998, 1999a, 199b): e.g., Yu. Kuz’menko in his recent book about early Germans considers Werner’s law in Proto-Germanic as one of the traces of contacts between ancient Germans and Finno-Ugrians, corresponding to archaeologically documented contacts between Neolithic cultures of Northern Europe and the Pit-Comb Ware culture and genetically documented peoples having Indo-European hap- logroup R1a and Uralic haplogroup N (Kuz’menko 2011).

  • Stress Chapter
    Word stress in the languages of the Caucasus1 Lena Borise 1. Introduction Languages of the Caucasus exhibit impressive diversity when it comes to word stress. This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of the stress systems in North-West Caucasian (henceforth NWC), Nakh-Dagestanian (ND), and Kartvelian languages, as well as the larger Indo-European (IE) languages of the area, Ossetic and (Eastern) Armenian. For most of these languages, stress facts have only been partially described and analyzed, which raises the question about whether the available data can be used in more theoretically-oriented studies; cf. de Lacy (2014). Instrumental studies are not numerous either. Therefore, the current chapter relies mainly on impressionistic observations, and reflects the state of the art in the study of stress in these languages: there are still more questions than answers. The hope is that the present summary of the existing research can serve as a starting point for future investigations. This chapter is structured as follows. Section 2 describes languages that have free stress placement – i.e., languages in which stress placement is not predicted by phonological or morphological factors. Section 3 describes languages with fixed stress. These categories are not mutually exclusive, however. The classification of stress systems is best thought of as a continuum, with fixed stress and free stress languages as the two extremes, and most languages falling in the space between them. Many languages with fixed stress allow for exceptions based on certain phonological and/or morphological factors, so that often no firm line can be drawn between, e.g., languages with fixed stress that contain numerous morphologically conditioned exceptions (cf.

  • National Minorities in South Caucasus
    Dr. Ahmad Shahidov Azerbaijan Institute for Democracy and Human Rights (AIDHR) www.aidhr.org [email protected] +99450 372 87 30 NATIONAL MINORITIES IN SOUTH CAUCASUS Today, Azerbaijan is distinguished with ethnic diversity. Besides Azerbaijani Turks, Mountain Jews, Tats, Talysh, Kurds, Molokans, Ingiloys, Tsakhurs, Avars, Lezgins, Khynalygs, Buduqlus, Grysz and other ethnic groups live in its territory. Although the representatives of ethnic groups consider themselves as Azerbaijanis but each group has retained distinctive elements of their different culture. This culture is reflected in domestic life, crafts, in kitchen and various ceremonies. Despite the difficulties being experienced by Azerbaijan, due to the unresolved armed conflict that continues more than a decade with neighboring Armenia, which occupies 20 percent of the Azerbaijani territory and the presence of about one million refugees and forcibly displaced persons - victims of ethnic cleansing organized by the Armenian armed forces and terrorist groups, among whom in addition to Azerbaijanis there are persons belonging to various minorities (Kurds, Russians, Jews and others), as well as problems connected with transitional period, the Government of Azerbaijan continues to pursue a consistent policy towards protection of minorities rights. 1 National minorities constitute 9.4 % of the population of the Republic of Azerbaijan. Here is a structural composition of population, languages and places of compact living of persons belonging to national minorities of the Republic of Azerbaijan: Lezgins - 178 thousand, compactly live in the Northern regions of Azerbaijan. Language of communication is Lezgins, relating to the Daghestan branch of the Caucasian languages, as well as Azerbaijani and Russian languages. Russians - 141,7 thousand, compactly live in the industrial cities, as well as a number of rural regions.

    Volume 3 Issue 1 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND June 2016 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 North Caucasian languages: comparison of three classification approaches Valery Solovyev Kazan State University, Kazan, Russia [email protected] Abstract In the paper three approaches to reconstruction of languages evolution trees are compared on the material of North Caucasian languages: the expert one (comparative-historical method), lexicostatistics, application of phylogenetic algorithms to databases. It is shown that degree of coherence of different computer solutions is approximately the same as degree of coherence of expert solutions. A new classification of North Caucasian languages is proposed, as a result of applying the consensus method to different known classifications. Keywords: North Caucasian languages, phylogenetic algorithms, evolution trees, linguistic databases, consensus method. http://www.ijhcs.com/index Page 1309 Volume 3 Issue 1 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND June 2016 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 1. Introduction Over the last years comparative linguists have developed language classification methods based on computer-aided calculations of linguistic similarities. Such methods have added substantially to the toolset of comparative linguistics. Methods utilizing computer programs to construct phylogenetic trees are conventionally called “automated”. The most complete overview of the state of affairs in this area is given in Nichols and Warnow (2008). This work is concerned with both the comparison of algorithms for constructing trees and the analysis of attempts to apply them to various language families. In order to determine the possibilities and usefulness of phylogenetic algorithms, it is proposed to test them on data from well-described families with unquestionable structure (benchmark or Gold Standard) and to compare the trees generated by computational algorithms with those obtained in a traditional manner.

  • Chapter 27 Chuvash and the Bulgharic Languages Alexander
    Chapter 27 Chuvash and the Bulgharic languages Alexander Savelyev Abstract Chuvash is the sole living representative of the Bulgharic branch, one of the two principal branches of the Turkic family. While extinct Bulgharic varieties are only limitedly accessible to linguists due to the scarcity of written sources, Chuvash has attracted a lot of attention as the most divergent Turkic language notable for both archaic features and innovations against the background of the Common Turkic branch. For a century, due to its salient features, Chuvash has played a key role in the Altaic and, further, Transeurasian debate. This chapter provides a historical overview and a grammar sketch of Chuvash as seen from both a genealogical and areal perspective. As shown in the chapter, Chuvash exhibits numerous features that are typical to Transeurasian languages in general and Turkic in particular. At the same time, some other traits that can be found in the modern Chuvash may have been adopted through contact with non-Transeurasian languages, most notably Uralic, such as Mari, and Indo-European, such as Russian. Keywords: Chuvash, Bulgharic languages, Turkic languages, Transeurasian hypothesis, language contact 27.1 Introduction Chuvash is the only modern representative of the Bulgharic branch, which is considered the earliest to split from the Proto-Turkic language. The traditional term “Bulghar(ic)” is preferred in this chapter to the label “Oghur(ic)” that has been used in the recent decades for the same grouping by some western scholars (Golden 1992: 17; Golden 1998: 18; Clark 1998a: 434; Johanson, this volume: Chapter 8)1. The name “Chuvash” is an adaptation of the endonym čə̂ ovaš, and similar designations of the Chuvash people and their language are used by all their neighbors.
