  • When Embedded C Projects an Argument
    When embedded C projects an argument Irina Burukina Eötvös Loránd University, MTA Research Institute for Linguistics 1 Introduction The standard assumption that Spec,CP is always an A-bar position has been questioned for several languages where embedded C0 appears to be involved in agreement and case- assignment, thus suggesting that at least some C heads can have A-features in addition to A- bar features (see Wurmbrand 2019 for an overview of the problem and references therein). In addition to this, several papers suggest that the highest functional heads on the clausal spine introduce silent operators corresponding to the discourse participants (Baker 2008; Diercks 2013, i.a.). The present paper contributes to these discussions by examining previously undescribed object control data from Meadow Mari1 (Uralic; nominative, head final, SOV) and arguing that a particular type of C0 is capable of thematically licensing an argument in Spec,CP. The sentences under consideration are exemplified in (1a), along with a more familiar case of object control (1b). (1) a. Maša mə-la-m tə-lan-et tol-aš (manən) kalas-en.2 Maša I-DAT-POSS.1SG you-DAT-POSS.2SG come-INF COMP tell-PST ‘Maša told me to tell you to come.’ // ‘Maša told me that you should come.’ b. Maša mə-la-m tol-aš (manən) kalas-en. Maša I-DAT-POSS.1SG come-INF COMP tell-PST ‘Maša told me to come.’ I demonstrate that in sentences similar to (1a) the first dative DP (here, məlam) is an argument of the matrix speech act predicate (similarly to the single dative DP in (1b)).

  • Complex Verb Constructions, Aspect and Telicity in Hill Mari1
    Complex verb constructions, aspect and telicity in Hill Mari1 Vadim Dyachkov Institute of Linguistics, Russian Academy of Science My talk deals with complex verb constructions in Hill Mari2. These are combinations of two verbs where the first verb contributes its lexical meaning (=light verb) and the second modifies it functioning as a telicizer. Complex verb constructions have received a great interest in the previous research, see e. g. [Pengitov et al. (eds.) 1961; 202–216; Serebrennikov 1960: 190–199; Driussi 1992-1993; Bradley 2010]. However, no detailed analysis of these constructions was proposed which would account for crucial semantic difference between them. Three telicizers will be in focus of my interest, šə̈ nzäš ‘to sit down’, keäš ‘to go, to leave’, and, especially, koltaš ‘to send’, which appear to be the most productive ones. The following examples show that adding different telicizers to the same verb leads to different semantic effects. (1) Vas’a noski-m čüc-en kolt-en/ šӛnd-en V. socks-ACC wear.out- CVB send-PRET sit- PRET ‘Vasya has worn the socks out/ made a lot of holes in his socks’. (2) püšangӛ kušk-en ke-n (kolt-en) tree grow-CVB go-PRET send-PRET ‘A/the tree has grown (enexpectedly, quickly)’. In Hill Mari language, the complex verbs are usually described as Turkic influence. In Turkic languages, complex verb constructions were successfully analyzed as functional projections (cf. [Grashchenkov 2012, 2015]), which suggests that light verbs are constituents that c-command converbs. However, no detailed semantic analysis was elaborated in order to account for the observed differences in (1) and (2).

  • The Vitality and Revitalisation Attempts of the Mansi Language in Khanty-Mansiysk
    Uralic Studies PhD Programme Graduate School in Linguistics University of Szeged The vitality and revitalisation attempts of the Mansi language in Khanty-Mansiysk PhD Dissertation Csilla Horváth Supervisors: Anna Fenyvesi, PhD Katalin Sipőcz, PhD Szeged 2020 1 1. Research questions The Mansi language is an endangered indigenous minority language spoken in Western Siberia. Linguistically it belongs to the family of Uralic languages, socially it belongs to the group of the so-called numerically small indigenous peoples of the Russian Federation. The beginnings of bilingualism (and probable multilingualism) of the Mansi society are no doubt located in the distant past, and it would be problematic to determine the starting point of language shift, but it is certain that researchers (e.g. Munkácsi 1889a: 208, 222-224) have been complaining about the difficulty of finding native speakers due to assimilation and rapid language shift for more than a hundred years. Thus, it appears to be likely that at least a part of Mansi society became a subject of language endangerment already during the 19th century, and the process has continued ever since. The Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug and Khanty- Mansiysk as its administrative and cultural centre often use the name Yugra, which refers to the indigenous Ob-Ugric peoples, as well as to ornaments and festivals originating from Ob-Ugric traditions, thus creating the district’s and the city’s own identity within Russia (Nagy 2016: 10-11). In order to “authentically” represent the Ob-Ugric cultural elements, the majority society needs Ob-Ugrians, including Mansis, who are considered “authentic”, but defining the authentic Ob-Ugric identity is not unproblematic in urbanised conditions.

  • Contemporary Situation of Khanty Language
    44 CAES Vol. 5, № 1 (March 2019) Contemporary situation of Khanty language Marija Launonen University of Helsinki; Helsinki, Finland; e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Khanty language faces numerous problems and tasks relating to dialect diversity, a small number of speakers, tensions between dialects, administrative divisions, education possibilities, urbanization and use of language in the contemporary world. A way that can be proposed to overcome these problems is to follow a Saami example in a decentralized approach to dialects, implementing online long-distance learning platforms. Several Khanty dialects are vigorously used among all age groups and have undisrupted intergenerational transmission, and the question in these cases, therefore, is about strengthening the language positions, not about reviving or revitalization. But there are few other dialects, where questions of reviving and revitalization are urgent questions. Keywords: Khanty language; language revitalization; Surgut idiom of Khanty language Introduction Khanty language, along with Mansi and Hungarian, belongs to Ugric branch of Uralic family. Khanty is spoken by an indigenous community, the Khanty people, who live in North-Western Siberia. According to 2010 census, in Russia 30943 people proclaimed themselves to be Khanty. 19068 of them live in Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug, 9489 live in Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, and 718 live in Tomsk Oblast. 9584 people have claimed to have good proficiency in Khanty language, and it is thought that almost all of them also have Khanty ethnic self-identity (Csepregi 2017). Khanty is usually divided into two dialect groups: Western and Eastern. The Western group is often divided further into Southern and Northern dialect groups.

    IWCLUL 2017 3rd International Workshop for Computational Linguistics of Uralic Languages Proceedings of the Workshop 23–24 January 2017 Norwegian University Centre of Oslo, St. Petersburg St. Petersburg, Russia c 2017 The Association for Computational Linguistics Order copies of this and other ACL proceedings from: Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL) 209 N. Eighth Street Stroudsburg, PA 18360 USA Tel: +1-570-476-8006 Fax: +1-570-476-0860 [email protected] ii Introduction Uralic is an interesting group of languages from the computational-linguistic perspective. The Uralic languages share large parts of morphological and morphophonological complexity that is not present in the Indo-European language family, which has traditionally dominated computational-linguistic research. This can be seen for example in number of morphologically complex forms belonging to one word, which in Indo-European languages is in range of ones or tens whereas for Uralic languages, it is in the range of hundreds and thousands. Furthermore, Uralic language situations share a lot of geo-political aspects: the three national languages—Finnish, Estonian and Hungarian—are comparably small languages and only moderately resourced in terms of computational-linguistics while being stable and not in threat of extinction. The recognised minority languages of western-European states, on the other hand—such as North Smi, Kven and Vro—do clearly fall in the category of lesser resourced and more threatened languages, whereas the majority of Uralic languages in the east of Europe and Siberia are close to extinction. Common to all rapid development of more advanced computational-linguistic methods is required for continued vitality of the languages in everyday life, to enable archiving and use of the languages with computers and other devices such as mobile applications.
