Писмата образци в „Писменник общеполезен“ (1835) на Хр. Павлович в контекста на развитието на българския книжовен език (с оглед на синтаксиса)

Author(s): Diana Ivanova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The second quarter of the 19th century was associated with the initial construction of the New Bulgarian literary language, a period in which the Slavonic-Bulgarian type of language formation dominated, containing spoken and bookish elements in an unbalanced ratio. In the works of some authors, it is closer to the Church Slavic language, while in others – to common speech. The observations on the books Pavlovich wrote in the 1830s (arithmetic and grammar) show that they had the second, more liberal line of language construction. This article aims to defend this thesis by analyzing „Pismennik obshtepolezen“ (1835) at a syntactic level and to highlight the merits of the author in the affirmation of syntactical norms, which is a point of interest in view of the development of the Bulgarian literary language.

Етикетни средства и клишета за учтивост в „Писмовниче“ (1870) от Стефан Попов и Петър Аврамов

Author(s): Nadka Nikolova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

In the proposed article, the grammatical and lexical means of expressing politeness are subjected to analysis by means of the descriptive analytical method, as are the clichés for ending in 60 sample letters, recommended in the ‘Pismovniche’ tutorial. The authors, Stefan Popov and Petar Avramov, advise using second-person pronouns and plural verbs in all letters addressed to parents, close relatives, and other people to whom students in grades 5 through 8 send letters. This recommendation is interpreted as being introduced by certain French sources used in compiling the tutorial; it is also influenced by trends in the last decade of the Bulgarian Revival. The lexical means of courtesy (address and title) are an episode of the gradual imposition of the titles Mr. and Mrs.; the vocative forms of nouns naming the addressees are a natural norm in the language. The clichés at the end of the letters help their addressees to master the art of correspondence.

„Програма за събиранье образци по народната устна словесност и местни наречия“ (1868) на Теодосий Икономов в контекста на отворените писма в българския периодичен печат от третата четвърт на XIX век

Author(s): Maria Mitskova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

During the second half of the 19th century, Bulgarian writers stressed the necessity of collecting and studying all Bulgarian dialects as one of the essential conditions of building a unified and common standard language. Feeling compelled to state their opinions openly by participating in the public debate, since the problems of the language were perceived as matters of paramount importance for the future development and well-being of the nation, they chose to voice their understandings by adopting the method of open letters. In this context, in 1868 the editor of the magazine “Obsht trud” Teodosij Ikonomov published his “Program for collecting samples of oral folk literature and local dialects”, which represents his “open letter” to the public concerned.

Таксономия на думите в три руски граматики от първата половина на XIX век

Author(s): Konstantin Kutsarov / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The aim of the scientific research is to present and analyze the findings of three Russian linguists from the first half of the 19th century on a fundamental problem, related to the parts of speech. In the course of the study it was found that during this period in Russian philological science there was a purposeful research effort to update and modernize the „sacred“ hitherto eight-member division model of Aristarchus. The most valuable thing is that the three authors of grammars choose different taxonomic criteria, leading to different classifications according to the number and composition of the parts of speech.

Эмоции vs. Интерпретации: о двух типах инфинитивных конструкций с предикативами

Author(s): Galina Ivanovna Kustova / Language(s): Russian Publication Year: 0

The paper considers constructions «predicative + infinitive». Interpretive infinitive constructions as opposed to emotional reactions. For emotional reactions, the predicative and the infinitive refer to the same subject, the infinitives of the perception, mental, speech verbs are typical for them: It hurts / It's sad to see you suffer (‘X sees, X is sad’). For interpretive constructions, the subject of the predicative and the subject of the infinitive does not coincide: It's tactless to ask this question – ‘X asks the question, Y evaluates such an act as tactless’. The infinitives of perceptual and mental verbs in such a construction are either not used, or they denote a kind of action: It is tactless to listen to private conversations.

Адаптация на глаголни заемки от чуждестранен произход в сръбския и хърватския език

Author(s): Vyara Naydenova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

Many borrowings from Latin, Greek, Turkish, German and English, and Romanic languages have been taken from the Serbian (SL) and Croatian (CL) languages. In the process of adaptation of the verb borrowings to the language system, the receiving language (both SL and CL) uses different suffixes: -ова/ти, -иса/ти, -ира/ти, without fixing the combination of the considered word-formation devices as a rule. Thanks to its phonetic background and easy articulation, an increase in the frequency of the suffix -ира/ти is established not only in CL, as before, but also in SL, because this word-formation element can stand after all vowels and after all consonants, while -ова/ти (the local traditional most frequent suffix) and -иса/ти (from Greek) appear in certain phonetic (and semantic) conditions. In verb borrowings, the suffix -ова/ти serves to denote the meaning ‘I am engaged in something, I represent what is expressed by the motivating word; I spend some time in a certain place, I stay“, while the suffix -иса/ти stands out with its particular presence in verbs, borrowed mostly from Greek and Turkish, meaning professions, crafts, titles and positions.

Деепричастията в гръцкия език и техните функционални еквиваленти в българския език (въз основа на преводен корпус)

Author(s): Desislava Yordanova-Petrova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

This paper focuses on the adverbial participles in the Greek language and their functional equivalents in Bulgarian translations. At the outset, we should clarify that adverbial participles exist in both languages and perform similar functions – they have adverbial use. However, there is a significant difference in the frequency of use of the participles in the two languages, and in particular – in the Greek language they are used much more widely than in the Bulgarian language. This necessitated a more in-depth study of the issue in order to establish the functional equivalents of the Greek adverbial participles in the Bulgarian language, using a translation corpus for this purpose.

Epistemic modality of clauses and sentences with English and Bulgarian alternative interrogative structures

Author(s): Velichka Lyubomirova Spasova / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The article focuses on the qualitative and quantitative findings from a comparative corpus-based research into the epistemic modality of clauses and sentences with English and Bulgarian alternative interrogative structures. The study has shown that in both languages the clauses and sentences are either genuine inquiries expecting the addressee to provide the right answer or selfaddressed questions signaling the speaker’s lack of knowledge, unhelpful memory, wondering and uncertainty, assumption, or concern and worry.

Gedanklich zwischen ratio und intuitio – eine komponentenanalyse im psycholinguistischen feld

Author(s): Aylya Iliyazova / Language(s): German Publication Year: 0

The current linguistic research focuses on the analysis of linguistic facts in support of the hypothesis that people tend to believe that they think rationally and make rational decisions, and this tendency has its linguistic expression in lexical linguistic objects that they use for communicative purposes. In order to place emphasis on the “rational” in their way of thinking when communicating with others, native speakers “rely” more on lexical units grouped in a lexico-semantic field expressing rationality rather than on lexical units combined in a lexico-semantic field expressing intuitiveness. The paper also presents a linguistic model called the Triangle of Thought, which presents the synonymous relationships between selected lexemes that express co-referentiality. The presented component analysis of semantic synonyms of the Gedanke lexeme in the German-speaking semantic space supports the assumption that the German language is dominated by lexemes whose semantic features form the profile of “rationality”, in comparison with fewer lexical units whose semantic features characterize “intuitiveness”.

Акустично моделиране на гласните с оптимизирано отчитане на перцептивните данни

Author(s): Rosina Kakova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

Learning new and relatively complex articulation habits requires continuous practice. A positive effect is achieved when the subject has proper feedback on the outcome of his actions. This is the purpose of the TREFL program in the field of corrective phonetics. This software-provided method offers the possibility of practical modelling of vowels, taking into account frequency integrations in their mental acoustic image. In contrast to the classical two-formant vowel model, the new model gives a more realistic representation of vowels at the perceptual level.

Проблемът за свидетелствеността в граматичните съчинения от периода 1835 ‒ 1878 г.

Author(s): Vasil Stamenov / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The paper discusses the conceptions expressed in the1835 ‒ 1878 period, which relate to the meaning of direct evidence in Modern Bulgarian. It is argued that the terms definite tense: indefinite tense are polysemous. The text also comments on the first proposals for the existence of the -х-/-ш- ending defined as a marker of direct evidence by distinguished linguists such as A. Aleksandrov, I. Kutsarov, etc.

Към въпроса за адвербиалните локативни модификатори в съвременния български и руски език

Author(s): Olga Chaparova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The article investigates the adverbial means of expression as a component of the functional-semantic field (abbreviated in the article as FSF) of locativity in contemporary Bulgarian and Russian. One of the ways to signal spatial relations is by using locative adverbs. In this study we take into consideration the symmetries and asymmetries in the system of locative adverbs in the two languages.

Author(s): Diana Markova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The aim of this paper is to trace the functional-semantic parallels between the English -able/-ible adjectives and the Bulgarian deverbatives ending in the suffix -м/-ем (-m/-em). It provides a comparison between the two groups based on examples from Bulgarian and English translations and illustrates their similarities and differences. The study attempts to answer the question to what extent the English -able/-ible adjectives and the Bulgarian present passive participles can be considered as functional-semantic equivalents.
