INTRODUCTION: THE NOSTRATIC MACROFAMILY § 1. The Nostratic macrofamily. This is a hypothetic macrofamily of languages, including Indo-European (IE), Hamito-Semitic (HS) ( = Afroasiatic) (comprising Semitic [S], Egyptian [Eg], Berber [B], Cushitic [C], Omotic [Om] and Chadic [Ch]), Kartvelian (K ), Uralic (U ) (= Finno- Ugric8 [FU], Samoyed [Sm] and Yukaghir [Y]), Altaic (A ) (= Turkic [T], Mongolic [M], Tungusic [Tg], Korean [Ko], and Japanese [J]), a n d Dravidian (D ). The hypothesis is based on a large amount of c o m m o n roots (more than 2,800) and many common grammatical morphemes, in which regular sound correspondences have been established (cf. IS MS, IS SS, IS I-III, AD LRC, AD SShS, AD LZL, AD PP, AD NGIE, AD NVIE, AD NM). Among the most important resemblances is that of personal pronouns and inflectional person-markers of the 1st and 2nd persons ( for 'I' in IE, U, A and K, (> (> for ' t h o u ' in IE, HS, U and M, etc.), that of interrogative pronouns (originally for 'who?' and for 'what?', surviving entirely or partially in IE, HS, K, U and A), basic lexical words (roots in descenfant languages) such a s 'stay' (> 'be') preserved in IE ( ), HS, U and K, ' t o eat' (IE, HS, M), 'to hold, take' (all branches except U), 'water' (all branches except K), 'name, word' (IE, HS, U, A), as well as words connected with culture of the final paleolythic age (cf. AD NM), such as 'woman of another moiety' > words f o r 'daughter-in-law', 'sister-in-law' and 'bride' in IE (Latin Greek , Slavic / ), S, U, A and D. The original Nostratic phonology (as reconstructed by V. Illich-Svitych and A. Dolgopolsky) had a rich consonant system (see below) and 7 vowels. The grammatical structure was, most probably, analytic with a rigid w o r d order (a sentence-final verb, attributive precedes its head, pronominal subject follows its verb) and with grammatical meanings expressed by word order, postpositions ( for genitive, for m a r k e d accusative, and others) and grammatical pronouns. It is very plausible that there are other members of the Nostratic macrofamily: Chukchee-Kamchadal, Eskimo-Aleut, Gilyak, Elamic (possibly connected with Dravidian) and possibly also Etruscan. But t h e comparativistic and etymological investigation of these languages is still at its very beginning, therefore at the present stage of Nostratic research they have not yet been included in the framework of comparison. § 2.

An Analysis of Soviet Competitive Potentialities Skogsekonomi i Sovjet~rnionen rned en unalys av landets potentiella konkurrenskraft by KARL VIICTOR ALGTTERE SICOGSH~GSICOLAN ROYAL COLLEGE OF FORESTRY STOCKHOLM Lord Keynes on the role of the economist: "He must study the present in the light of the past for the purpose of the future." Printed in Sweden by ESSELTE AB STOCKHOLM Foreword Forest Economy in the U.S.S.R. is a special study of the forestry sector of the Soviet economy. As such it makes a further contribution to the studies undertaken in recent years to elucidate the means and ends in Soviet planning; also it attempts to assess the competitive potentialities of the U.S.S.R. in international trade. Soviet studies now command a very great interest and are being undertaken at some twenty universities and research institutes mainly in the United States, the United Kingdoin and the German Federal Republic. However, it would seem that the study of the development of the forestry sector has riot received the detailed attention given to other fields. In any case, there have not been any analytical studies published to date elucidating fully the connection between forestry and the forest industries and the integration of both in the economy as a whole. Studies of specific sections have appeared from time to time, but I have no knowledge of any previous study which gives a complete picture of the Soviet forest economy and which could faci- litate the marketing policies of the western world, being undertaken at any university or college.

If that is so, then this language—like nearly all extant light of such correlations it is often possible to discern relic traits, languages—most likely had a basic ordering of the subject (S), such as GN order in a language that has already changed its basic verb (V), and object (O) in a declarative sentence of the type word order from SOV to SVO.

  • Comparative-Historical Linguistics and Lexicostatistics
    COMPARATIVE-HISTORICAL LINGUISTICS AND LEXICOSTATISTICS Sergei Starostin COMPARATIVE-HISTORICAL LINGUISTICS AND LEXICOSTATISTICS [This is a translation, done by I. Peiros and N. Evans, of my paper "Sravnitel'no-istoričeskoe jazykoznanie i leksikostatistika", in "Lingvističeskaja rekonstrukcija i drevnejšaja istorija Vostoka", Moscow 1989. I have introduced, however, a number of modifications into the final English text — basically rewritten it again, since the English version needs English examples and etymologies, not Russian ones.] The last two decades have witnessed a fundamental advance in the techniques of comparative linguistic research. A prolonged period of comparative work with a wide range of language families has laid the foundation for the study of genetic relationships between remotely related languages or language groups. The first step in this direction was taken by V.M. Illich-Svitych in his seminal work 'Towards a comparison of the Nostratic languages' in which, with a combination of rigorous methods and intuitive flare, he begins to demonstrate the relatedness of a number of languages of the Old World. This new level of comparative studies appears completely legitimate. In fact, if we take the theory of language divergence as axiomatic, we have to concede the fact that from around the sixth millenium B.C. to the first millenium B.C. there was quite a number of different reconstructable proto-languages throughout the world. Once the level of reconstruction of various proto-languages is improved, the question inevitably arises: are any of these proto-languages genetically related and, if so, can we prove this relationship? To the first part of this question we must now answer in the affirmative.

  • Notes on Proto-Mansi Word-Final Vocalism
    Juho Pystynen Helsinki Notes on Proto-Mansi word-final vocalism 1. Introduction The history of the Mansi vocalism has been a subject of research already for more than a century. However, all three monographs published on the topic thus far (Hazay 1907, Kannisto 1919, Steinitz 1955) only treat first-syllable vocalism. Slightly more detail is found in Honti (1982 = GOV), who presents full Proto-Mansi (PMs) reconstructions in his comparative Ob-Ugric lexicon, but he still gives no overview of either the PMs second-syllable vocalism, its development from Proto-Ob-Ugric, or its development into the attested Mansi varieties. In this paper I attempt to take a first step towards this goal, focusing on word-final vowels in nominal stems. As research material, the 724 Proto-Mansi reconstructions and 105 additional etymological cognate sets presented in GOV would seem to cover the bulk of the old inherited vocabulary of Mansi, and they provide a relatively comprehensive basis for probing the historical development of the Mansi varieties. To this could be still added a number of words of old Uralic heritage not covered by Honti due to the absence of cognates in Khanty (e.g. the reflexes of Proto-Uralic kojwa* ‘birch’, *lämə ‘broth’, *wetə ‘water’). Such examples are however not numerous, and they do not seem to change the emerging big picture. Substantially more additional data can be found in the Mansi dialect dictionaries based on the collections of Munkácsi and Kannisto, but their analy- sis would first require further etymological work; they certainly contain much newer vocabulary from various other sources (e.g.

    https://doi.org/10.7592/FEJF2020.79.toulouze_anisimov AN ETHNO-CULTURAL PORTRAIT OF A DIASPORA IN CENTRAL RUSSIA: THE FORMATION AND CULTURE OF THE EASTERN UDMURT Eva Toulouze Institut National des Langues et Civilisations Orientales, Paris, France Department of Ethnology University of Tartu, Estonia [email protected] Nikolai Anisimov Department of Folkloristics, Estonian Literary Museum, Estonia Department of Philological Studies Udmurt Institute for Research in History, Language and Literature (UdmFRC UB RAS) Izhevsk, Russia [email protected] Abstract: The Eastern Udmurt are a peripheral Udmurt ethnographic group whose members live mostly in Bashkortostan. This article introduces the reader to the migrations that led to the formation of this group, and to the main cultural characteristics that determine the originality of the Eastern Udmurt. Their settling in the Bashkir lands took place due to the penetration of the Russian power in the Volga region, which happened in the sixteenth century through warfare that damaged the local population. They started to settle in more peaceful regions, and the migration was continued in the subsequent centuries, reaching the peak with the forceful Evangelisation of the eighteenth century. This culture is rich and original: it has retained many Udmurt features as the ethnic religion that is still alive, and has merged with Turkic features in several important aspects, such as language, costume, and music. This is the first part of a study that will continue with the observation of Eastern Udmurt organisations and the relation to their core territory, nowadays the Republic of Udmurtia.

Beliefs Of The West Finns As Exhibited In The Magic Songs 1 PREFACE In this country the term Finn is generally restricted to the natives of Finland, with perhaps those of Esthonia thrown in. But besides these Western Finns there are other small nationalities in Central and Northern Russia, such as the Erza and Mokša Mordvins, the Čeremis, Votiaks, Permians, and Zịrians, to whom the term is very properly applied, though with the qualifying adjective—Eastern. Except by Folklorists, little attention is paid in Great Britain to these peoples, and much that is written of them abroad finds no response here, the 'silver streak' acting, it would seem, as a non-conductor to such unsensational and feeble vibrations. Although the languages of the Eastern and Western Finns differ as much perhaps among themselves as the various members of the Aryan group, the craniological and physical differences between any two Finnish groups is very much less than between the Latin and the Teutonic groups, for instance.

  • Bab Iii Biografi Imam Empat Madzhab
    BAB III BIOGRAFI IMAM EMPAT MADZHAB A. Latar Belakang Kehidupan Empat Imam Madzhab 1. Riwayat Hidup Imam Abu Hanifah Abu Hanifah dilahirkan pada tahun 80 Hijriah bersamaan (659 Masehi). Sebagian para ahli sejarah mengatakan bahwa ia dilahirkan pada tahun 61 Hijriah; pendapat kedua sangat tidak berdasar, karena yang sebenarnya adalah pada tahun 80 Hijriah (659 M) menurut pendapat yang pertama.1 Imam Abu Hanifah dilahirkan di kota Kufah pada tahun 80 H (699 M). Nama beliau sejak kecil ialah Nu’am bin Tsabit bin Zauth bin Mah. Ayah beliau keturunan bangsa Persi (Kabul Afganistan) yang sudah menetap di Kufah. Pada masa beliau dilahirkan pemeritahan Islam berada ditangan Abd. Malik bin Marwan, Raja Bani Umayyah yang ke- 5. Beliau diberi gelar Abu Hanifah, karena diantara putranya ada yang bernama Hanifah. Ada lagi menurut riwayat lain beliau bergelar Abu Hanifah, karena begitu taatnya beliau beribadah kepada Allah, yaitu berasal dari bahasa Arab Hanif yang berarti condong atau cenderung kepada yang benar. Menurut riwayat lain pula, beliau diberi gelar Abu Hanifah, 1 Ahmad Asy-Syurbasi, Sejarah dan Biografi Empat Imam Madzhab, (Jakarta: Amzah, 2013), Cetakan. Ke- 7, h.14 36 37 karena begitu dekat dan eratnya beliau berteman dengan tinta.

    2736 ABBREVIATIONS OF NAMES OF LANGUAGES, DIALECTS, LANGUAGE FAMILIES, SUBFAMILIES, AND SCRIPT SYSTEMS A. Names of languages, dilects, and families of languages The sigla of the dialects follow those of the languages either directly (Lp L = Lule Lappish) or after a colon (if several dialects are mentioned), e.g. Lp: N guoros, L kuoro2s 'empty' (= "Norwegian Lappish guoros 'empty', Lule Lappish kuoro2s id."). If related words of several languages & dialects share the same meaning, it may be indicated either once after the enumeration of the languages\dialects (e.g. Hb ≤kElEb3, Ar kalb-, Ak kalbum 'dog') o r after the first of the languages only with the indication "id." after the other language names (e.g. Hb ≤kElEb3 'dog', Ar kalb- id., Ak kalbum id.). If we quote a common word shared by several dialects of the same language or by several languages of the same family and the word has the same phonologic form and the same meaning in all these dialects\languages, their names may be separated by a solidus (slant line), e.g. Os V/Vy/Ty {Ht.} (= Vakh, Vasyugan & Teryugan dialects of Ostyak, as described by L. Honti), Brj/Ged/Hd/Kmb {Hd.} (= Burji, Gede’o, Hadiya, Kambata languages, as described by G. Hudson). In these cases the name of the scholar (who recorded o r registered the forms) refers to all languages connected by a solidus. Abbreviationes: d. = dialect, sd. = subdialect, ssd. = subsubdialect, ds. = dialects, sds. = subdialects, lge. = language. ∀ = attested in different epochs, from the most ancient documents of the lge. (e.g., Eg ∀ = Eg [from the most ancients dicuments on]), f… = from … on (of historical variants of lgs.) (e.g.
