    University of Helsinki A Grammar of Wutun PhD Thesis Department of World Cultures Erika Sandman ACADEMIC DISSERTATION To be publicly discussed, by due permission of the Faculty of Arts at the University of Helsinki in auditorium XV (Main Building), on the 26th of November, 2016 at 10 o’clock. Helsinki 2016 Cover image: A thangka painter in Wutun ISBN 978-951-51-2633-7 (paperback) ISBN 978-951-51-2634-4 (PDF) Printed by Unigrafia Helsinki 2016 Abstract This study is a grammatical description of Wutun (ISO 639-3 WUH), a distinct local form of Northwest Mandarin spoken by approximately 4000 people in Upper Wutun, Lower Wutun and Jiacangma villages in Tongren County, Huangnan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province, People’s Republic of China. While the Wutun language is genealogically a Sinitic language, it has adapted phonologically and structurally to is current linguistic environment where varieties of Amdo Tibetan are dominant regional languages and lingua francas. The Tibetan influence manifests itself in all domains of Wutun grammatical structure, including phonology, morphology, syntax and lexicon. This has yielded some phonological and grammatical properties that are unusual for a Sintic language and cross-linguistically rare, including the size of a phoneme inventory, multiple aspect marking and egophoricity. The present study is based on first-hand field data collected during three field trips to Qinghai province in June-August 2007, June-August 2010 and June-July 2013. My data includes descriptive and narrative texts, conversations, as well as elicited sentences and grammaticality judgements. The theoretical framework used for language description is based on an informal descriptive theory referred in the literature as Basic Linguistic Theory (BLT) (Dixon 1997, 2010; Dryer 2006).

    Hungarian Hungarian is spoken by 14-15 million people worldwide. A unique lan­ guage, completely unrelated to the languages of its neighboring countries, it boasts a grammar full of complex features and a vocabulary deriving largely from a Uralic stock. The book covers the phonological inflectional and derivational morpho­ logy, syntax, and fundamental lexicon of Hungarian. It gives a detailed summary of both the sound systems and rich case systems of Hungarian and illustrates their various uses. It summarizes the main processes of word formation and gives a detailed account of the sentence structure and the ways of combining words into sentences. It also lists the basic vocabulary of Hungarian. Hungarian addresses current issues in the description of languages and applies up-to-date research techniques to Hungarian. This is the first comprehensive descriptive grammar of the Hungarian language available in English, and will appeal to both the professional linguist and advanced learner of Hungarian alike. István Kenesei is editor of the series Approaches to Hungarian and Professor of Linguistics at József Attila University, Hungary. Robert M. Vago is Professor of Linguistics and Chair of the Department of Linguistics at Queens College of the City University of New York. Previous publications include The Sound Pattern of Hungarian (1980).

  • Unique Features of the Nominal Morphological Systems in the Eastern Dialects of Khanty Has Not Been Conducted
    Section LANGUAGE AND LINGUISTICS UNIQUE FEATURES OF THE NOMINAL MORPHOLOGICAL SYSTEMS IN THE EASTERN DIALECTS OF KHANTY Assoc. Prof. Victoria Vorobeva 1, 2 Prof. Dr. Irina Novitskaya 2 1, 2 Tomsk State University, Russia 1 Tomsk Polytechnic University, Russia ABSTRACT This paper presents results of a study aiming at identifying unique features in the system of morphological markers of the noun in four idioms of Eastern Khanty (Vakh, Vasyugan, Surgut and Salym). The analysis focuses on the paradigms of three nominal categories: number, possession, and case. It draws on the linguistic data obtained from various grammars of Khanty written over the period from the nineteenth century to the present time. The analysis also incorporates the field data obtained during research trips to the speakers of the Vakh-Vasyugan idiom. The findings point to the fact that the differences are either morphological or phonological, and are sometimes of debatable nature. Keywords: Eastern Khanty, morphology, number, possession, case INTRODUCTION Our analysis is grounded in the concept that the Eastern cluster comprises two idioms: Vakh-Vasyugan and Surgut-Salym. Each idiom is further subdivided into two dialects, e.g. the Surgut Khanty combines the Surgut and Salym dialects, while the Vakh-Vasyugan encompasses the Vakh and Vasyugan dialects. In accordance with the contemporary view, the Surgut idiom includes Pim, Trom-Agan, Agan, and Yugan varians of Surgut Khanty [1]. The Vakh-Vasyugan idiom is represented by the Alexandrovsk variant. The Salym dialect is considered as a mixed variant that includes some elements of the now not existing southern dialects of Khanty [2]. The sociolinguistic situation of the Eastern Khanty is heterogeneous.

    Section LANGUAGE AND LINGUISTICS AN OUTLINE OF NOUN MORPHOLOGY IN SURGUT AND SALYM KHANTY Assoc. Prof. Victoria Vorobeva 1, 2 Prof. Dr. Irina Novitskaya 2 Assoc. Prof. Dilara Ichkineeva 3 1 Tomsk State University, Russia 2 Tomsk Polytechnic University, Russia 3 Bashkir State University, Russia ABSTRACT This study presents findings resulting from a comparative analysis of the system of nominal morphological markers attested by various researchers in the Surgut dialect and in the badly described Salym dialect. The analysis focused on the morphological markers that form paradigms of three nominal categories: case, number and possession. It aimed at systematizing the linguistic data of Surgut and Salym Khanty. Keywords: Surgut Khanty, Salym Khanty, morphology, number, possession, case INTRODUCTION On a par with the Vakh and Vasyugan dialects, the Surgut and Salym dialects belong to the Eastern cluster of Khanty that is opposed to the Western one, according to a contemporary classification of the dialects in question [1]. The names of the idioms adopted by the speakers are designations given after the name of an area: the Surgut district and a tributary of the Ob river: Salym. The Surgut dialect is subdivided into several variants: Pim, Trom-Agan, Agan, and Yugan [2], [3] while László Honti distinguishes Pim, Trom-Agan, Trom-Yugan, and Yugan variants [4]. According to Marta Csepregi, Trom-Agan and Trom-Yugan form one variant designated as the Trom-Agan. Nowadays all dialects of Khanty are very susceptible to the natural process of language shift. The overwhelming majority of the ethnic population speaks Russian, however, speakers of the Surgut dialect of Khanty have lost their native language less than speakers of other Eastern dialects – Vakh, Vasyugan and Salym.

  • Common Declensions and Cases
    COMMON DECLENSIONS AND CASES: Modern English is an analytic language. It primarily makes meaning by word order. To show that a word is in the nominative case, (i.e., the word functions as the subject of a clause), modern English speakers put that word in front of the verb. To show that a word is in the accusative case (functioning as a direct objective), modern English speakers put that word after the verb. For instance, The teacher (nominative) graded the tests (accusative/direct object). Word order thus becomes very important in analytic languages. It makes no sense in modern English to write, "The tests graded the teacher." However, Anglo-Saxon (Old English), Latin, Greek, and many other languages are or were synthetic. These languages require that the case or function of each word be visibly marked through inflections or declensions. An inflection, generally speaking, is any change in a word--whether that word is a noun, adjective, verb, adverb, or whatnot. A noun might inflect to show a singular or plural meaning, for instance. Inflections in verbs fall into patterns called conjugations. When you conjugate a verb, you show all its inflections for a particular tense and mood, for instance. Declensions are inflections to words that show what their case is. (The term case simply means what part of speech a word and its modifiers are in--for instance, subject, object, etc.). NB: You always conjugate verbs. You always decline nouns and their modifiers. Grammarians will make fun of you if you talk about "conjugating nouns" or "declining verbs." In synthetic languages, word order does not matter.

  • The Distributive “Dwarf Case” in Estonian
    The distributive “dwarf case” in Estonian Jussi Ylikoski (Oulu) Abstract The article discusses the borderland between nominal case inflection and adverb deri- vation in Estonian. Estonian grammars customarily present a case system consisting of fourteen cases. The present article takes a step outside the traditional paradigm. The main focus of the study is on certain formations traditionally regarded as denominal adverbs. The previously underdescribed formations in -ti have a distributive meaning (e.g., hommikuti ‘in the mornings’, riigiti ‘across countries; by country’, keeliti ‘across languages’). Based on data drawn from billions of words of modern written Estonian on the Internet, the distributive in -ti turns out to be a rather productive morphological category. Special attention is given to the syntactic properties of these formations, as the data show that the distributive differs starkly from ordinary adverbs. It is argued that the distributives are not fully denominal forms, but rather show many features characteristic of nouns: they may be accompanied by postmodifying relative clauses as well as genitives, adjectival modifiers and pronominal determiners. The article shows that the inflection–derivation interface of the Estonian noun is far from clear-cut. On the basis of the findings presented in this study, it is proposed that our understanding of the Estonian case system can be advanced by introducing a concept of “dwarf case” in analogy with dwarf planets, which are members of the Solar System and share many features with planets despite not being proper planets in and of themselves. The Estonian distributive in -ti can therefore be characterized as a “dwarf case”, an entity that comes quite close to being potentially considered the fifteenth case of the language.

I argue that the Turkish number marking system patterns with the English number marking system, as well as offering novel insights into the variations between the two. Specifically, I claim that morphologically unmarked nouns (Turkish kitap; English book) are semantically marked as singular, whereas morphologically marked plural nouns (Turkish kitap+lar; English book+s) exhibit semantic unmarkedness, having a number neutral denotation (following Krifka 2003, Sauerland et al. 2005, Spector 2007, and Zweig 2009 for English, cf. Bliss 2004, Bale et al. 2010, and Gorg¨ ul¨ u¨ 2012 for Turkish). The investigation includes the semantics of kind reference, in the sense of Chierchia (1998b) and Dayal (2004b), the effects of which are revealed more significantly in Turkish than in English, extending to phenomena that pertain to naming kinds (cf.
