Verb peculiarities in Maradid Klarjuli

Summary/Abstract: Disappearance of person markers is rare (it refers to only ვ- prefix of the first subjective person, before labial უ’ vowel and the cases of the loss of the third indirect objective person prefixes before voiceless consonants), while the alternations of person markers are quite common. Functionally the most loaded are -ენ and -ან person markers of the third subjective person in plural. The frequency of their use instead of other affixes also points to it. It does not distinguish structure, combination of persons and number. To express the plurality of objects, გვ-‘ prefix is replaced byმ-ან; მ-ენ,მ-ეს, მ-ონconfixes. -თsuffix is almost never confirmed for depiction of object plurality. Alternation of -ან, -ენ’ suffixes is not typical for only Maradidi speech or general Klarjuli speech. It can be understood as a common Georgian phenomenon as far as it is met in other dialectsof the Georgian language. However, their use with such frequency can be considered as a significant feature for southern (Samkhruli) dialects, Maradidi speech in particular. Neither the alternation of preverbs is lawful, as in some cases they can be explained but in general, this phenomenon is very interesting because in different dialects there are many different derivations and interesting forms. The unity of functions should lead to the substitution of preverbs. Sometimes the same function can be conveyed by several preverbs; in addition, two different preverbs can indicate one and same direction. In certain situations, the preverbs can replace one another. Not all the preverbs van express additional nuances, it can only be the specific feature of one of them. Additional nuances of the preverb relate to the expression of the perfective aspect. All the verbal forms that contain some specific content and have additional nuances are, first of all, of perfective aspect. The system of theme suffixes is unstable and changeable. If we scrutinize the speech of Maradidians, the problem will be visible and there fore much more impressive. Verbs with one themeoften have theme suffixes and vice versov – verb forms with theme suffixes need no suffix at all. In the speech of Maradidians , there are reduced forms of theme suffixes (gatsurven, darekhven, momkidvida, gakidavda…) and variety of theme suffixes are found (-ავ, -ებ//-ი; -ებ//-ავ; -ამ//-ავ; -ავ//-ებ; -ავ//-ევ; -ებ//-ოფ; -ებ//-ობ; -ობ//-ოფ (-ეფ); -ავ//-ებ (-ეფ)...
