    Languages in contact in N.W. Georgia: fact or fiction? B.George Hewitt SOAS London University England "One of the most important problems of our discipline is to establish the date of the settlement of the Abkhazian population upon the territory of modern Abkhazia" -- the words of Svan linguist, Aleksandre Oniani, used to open his 2-part article Abkhazia and NW Georgia according to the linguistic evidence, published in saxalxo ganatleba (Narodnoe Obrazovanie) over the New Year 1989-90. Although we can all undoubtedly think of many other, rather more urgent tasks for Caucasologists in general and Kartvelologists in particular, Oniani has presented a case, and it has to be answered, however tedious this may be. Some may wish to interpose at this point the observation that the article in question was answered in the self-same paper on the 8th March by Teimuraz Gvanceladze and Merab Chuxua. But, as we shall see, what these two individuals set out to achieve can in no way be regarded as an attempt to challenge the central proposition of Oniani's argument, namely that the people we call Abkhazians have resided in Abkhazia for no more than 400-500 years. How is this conclusion reached in terms of the linguistic data? There are three basic strings to Oniani's bow: 1. apart from the odd, insignificant example of lexical exchange, there has been no deep, long-standing influence from Abkhaz on either Mingrelian or Laz, as has been claimed by others; 2. contrary to the opinions expressed by a number of even Kartvelian scholars in the middle of this century, toponymic evidence does not support the possibility that W.

  • Problems of Polysynthesis
    9Z Separate from Problems of Polysynthesis Edited by Nicholas Evans and Hans-Jürgen Sasse ISBN 3-05-003732-6 Studia typologica 4 Sprachtypolo gie und Universalienforschung B eihe ft e Language Typology and Universals Supplements Akademie Verlag Berlin 2A02 Syntax and mo{ph,ology of polysynthesis in the Georgian verb' Wrxrzus» BoeDER l. Georgian is one of the almost sixty autochthonous Caucasian languages, and it is the one with the highest number of speakers (3.5 to 3.8 million, depending on whom you count as speakers of Georgian) and with the oldest literary tradition. It should therefore offer us the unique opportunity to study a history of 1,500 years of polysynthesis. But as far as personal verb-marking is concerned, Georgian has been stable over this time, and its related langua- ges,Laz, Mingrelian and Svan, seem to allow the conclusion that Georgian person-marking largely mirrors the system of the South Caucasian or Kartvelian protolanguage. Changes refer to the loss or extension of third person plural object sufflxes and to third person subject suffixes, but not to the subject and object prefixes which I will discuss here. This stabil§ of prefixation over thousands of years is no less remarkable a phenomenon than the better- known "natural" preference for suffixation in other domains of Georgian morphology. The purpose of this paper is to provide a better understanding of verbal agreement in a polysynthetic language like Georgian. After a short outline of verbal morphology (§ 2), I will describe some constraints on the combination of subject and object markers (§ 3), which lead to a reinterpretation of the dummy head noun tav- 'head' which is often described as a reflexive pronoun (§ 4).
