Глагольные системы чулымско-тюркских диалектов: временны´ е формы
Verbal systems in Chulym Turkic dialects: temporal forms

Summary/Abstract: The first part of the article surveys the existing publications on the TAM system of the Chulym Turkic dialects by A. P. Dulzon, R. M. Biryukovich, G. D. S. Anderson and K. D. Harrison, and Y.-S. Li et al. Then, based on the field and archive materials, it considers auxiliary elements expressing TAM characteristics in the Chulym Turkic sub-dialects. The author analyzes the examples with the so-called simple and compound verbal predicates and concludes that there are differences in the systems of the simple and analytical tense forms in the Lower Chulym and the Middle Chulym dialects. In the Yezhi sub-dialect of the Lower Chulym dialect there are forms of the past tense on -(G)A(n), the future tense on -LXK, future optative on -GAj, the present tense on -AdI, -(Ip)jA(T), -Ar. In the Tutal sub-dialect of the Middle Chulym dialect there are forms of the past tense on -(G)A(n), past indirective on -(Ip)tIr, the future tense on -LXK, future optative on -GAč, the present tense on -AdI, -(I)B(I)ℓ(X), -(Ip)tIr. In the Melet sub-dialect of the Middle Chulym dialect there are forms of the past tense on -(G)A(n), the future tense on -LXK, future optative on -GAč, and the present tense on -AdI, -(I)B(I)ℓ(X), -(Ip)tIr. In conclusion the author states perspectives for further research, i.e. a more profound investigation of verbs that form aspect and aktionsart constructions.
