Дативно-предикативные структуры и семантико-синтаксический интерфейс в русском и болгарском языках

Author(s): Maxim Stamenov,Anton Zimmerling / Language(s): Bulgarian,Russian Publication Year: 0

In this chapter we study the place of dative-predicative structures (DPS) in Russian and Bulgarian and their interaction with the syntax-semantics interface. We pay attention to the main distinctive features of predicatives from a formal and a semantic perspective, as well as to the properties and specifics of the interface between the form and content of this type of structures in terms of their capacity for expressing core morphological, syntactic and semantic relations.

Author(s): Maria A. Ovsyannikova,Hristina Kukova / Language(s): Russian Publication Year: 0

The paper examines perception predicates in Bulgarian and Russian. The study centers on sentences in which the object of perception is a situation expressed by a subordinate clause. Special attention is paid to the aspectual properties of the matrix verbs. We also discuss similarities and differences in the use of perception verbs in both languages, taking into account the realization of various constructions and complementizers.

Инфинитивные и финитные сентенциальные зависимые в русском языке и их соответствия с союзами че и да в болгарском языке

Author(s): Alexander Letuchiy,Marina Dzhonova / Language(s): Russian Publication Year: 0

The article compares the distribution of complementation strategies in Bulgarian and Russian. In Russian, the opposition of finite complements (introduced primarily by что and чтобы) is opposed to infinitive complements. In the default case, the former do not mark co-reference, while the latter are used in contexts involving co-reference between the main and the embedded clause arguments, although this is not always the case. Bulgarian lacks infinitives, thus, it has no non-finite complement forms. However, the infinitive functions are, to a great degree, fulfilled by да-complements, as opposed to че-complements. The significant differences observed in the data are due to the presence of the finite verb in the complement clauses introduced by the complementizer да. As we demonstrate, the opposition between что / чтобы and the infinitive in Russian and the difference between че and да in Bulgarian have a lot in common, although only Russian infinitive clauses are non-finite in the strict sense. To demonstrate this, we examine the relation between various strategies of complementation, co-reference and tense, and show how different complement types exhibit non-standard types of syntactic control.

THE PRAGMATICS OF COMPLIMENT EXPRESSIONS BETWEEN NATIVE SPEAKERS OF ENGLISH, RUSSIAN AND UKRAINIAN

Author(s): José Luis PEREA-HERNÁNDEZ,Anzhelika Solodka,Natalia Romanchuck,Zoya Oganesyan,Svitlana Kushnirenko / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Pragmatics has been a paramount part in the field of intercultural communication for linguists. It concerns the study of linguistic interaction between people and it analyzes conversation and the speech acts. The present article focuses on the speech acts as a way to express in universal ways and with appropriate knowledge and, namely, on the usage of compliment expressions. We have taken as a basis Manes’ definition of compliments as those speech acts which have the reflection and expression of cultural values because of their nature as judgments, over expressions of approval or admiration of another’s work, appearance or taste. The objective of compliment expressions is to establish or to reinforce solidarity. Many of the values reflected through compliments are personal appearance, new acquisitions, possessions, talents and skills. The conclusions that we have drawn are made on the results that we have got from the online survey that referred to the following variables: compliment form (syntactic patterns), tone used by speakers, compliment frequency, relationship between the compliment speaker and hearer, gender relationship, speakers’ age, and attributes praised. Participants consisted of native speakers of English interviewed in the United States and native speakers of Russian and Ukrainian from all over the Ukraine.

Причастията в дионисиевия превод на словата против аномеите от св. Йоан Златоуст

Author(s): Kamen Dimitrov / Language(s): English,Bulgarian,Old Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The survey hereby focuses on the peculiarities of the participles in a hitherto linguistically unexplored text, namely the Middle Bulgarian translation of Contra Anomoeos („On the Incomprehensible Nature of God“) by John Chrysostom. It consists of six sermons, comprising the first part of the book Margarit (Pearl), a crucial component of the Slavic handwritten tradition. The study of the Slavonic translation of Margarit is very important for outlining the translation practice of the scholars of the literary circle around Theodosius of Tarnovo. The survey is based on the earliest Bulgarian transcript – manuscript F.I.197, kept in The National Library of Russia, Saint Petersburg – written in the middle of the fourteenth century. The manuscript is considered to have been composed during the lifetime of his translator – the scholar Dionisiy Divniy. The article highlights a high degree of similarity between the linguistic devices used by Dionisiy Divniy and by the other representatives of the Turnovo Literary School from the fourteenth century.

Изразните средства на исихастката апофатичност като отражение на древни мисловни модели

Author(s): Ivan G. Iliev / Language(s): English,Bulgarian,Old Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The article treats the means of expression of hesychastic apophaticism, used by Old Bulgarian writers of the 14th – 15th centuries, and the author tries to show that these means are very old, and were characteristic even for the mind of primitive people. He pays attention to the synonymy of ‘aphophatic’ negative pronouns and ‘cataphatic’ summative pronouns; to the pleonastic use of the negative particle не; to the syntactic but- constructions; and to necessative constructions.

Функционално-семантичната категория залоговост в българския език

Author(s): Verka Sasheva / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The purpose of the article is to outline the means (explicators, modifiers) that are in the core and periphery of the functional-semantic field of voice. Attention is paid not only to the morphological category of voice, which is at the core of the functional-semantic field; other peripheral explicators of the category – both lexical and syntactic – are considered, too. Some homonymous uses of passive forms with already lost passive meanings are discussed. An attempt is made to distinguish them by means of a functional-semantic (pragmatic, not formal) criterion.

Наблюдения върху езика на литургийното тълкувание в MSS РГАДА 88 И БОГИШИЧ 52. Морфология на имената

Author(s): Tatyana Ilieva / Language(s): Bulgarian,Old Slavonic,Old Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The object of study in this article are the morphological peculiarities of the nominal system in the hitherto unattributed liturgical commentary of MSS RGADA 88 and Bogishich 52. On the basis of a thorough linguistic analysis linguistic data are gathered about the age in which the work appeared and the literary school to which its author belonged. This investigation shows that as regards its morphological characteristics, the commentary has the characteristic features of Southern Slavonic literature, which conform to the linguistic norms probably already established on Mt. Athos in the first decades of the 14th century and adopted by the Tarnovo men of letters as well, norms underlying the Resava orthography in Serbia later. Judging by the linguistic data examined, the commentary could have been written in the Western Bulgarian or the Eastern Serbian lands by an author who had a command of Old Bulgarian and observed its morphological and syntactic norms by using synthetic nominal forms at the time when the new analytical system had already established itself in the vernacular.

Balkan vs Romance in the linguistic atlas of the Romanian dialects to the north and the south of the Danube

Author(s): Manuela Nevaci,Irina Floarea / Language(s): English,Bulgarian,Romanian Publication Year: 0

Our paper aims to emphasise the dialectal similarities of North- and South-Danubian Romanian dialects (Daco-Romanian, Aromanian, Megleno-Romanian, Istro-Romanian) spoken in Romania, the Republic of Moldova, Ukraine, Serbia, Hungary, Albania, Bulgaria, the Republic of North Macedonia, Greece, Croatia. Our research is based on the questionnaire of Atlas Linguarum Europae (ALE), the ALE dialectal archive of the Iorgu Iordan – Al. Rosetti Institute of Linguistics at the Romanian Academy, in order to have a comparison with European dialects. In this way, the concordances with the Romance languages related to the languages of the Balkan Sprachbund and with other European languages are highlighted. The aim is to emphasise the Romance nature and the unity of the Romanian language in the European context.

Произход на български диалектни думи (принос към българската диалектна етимология и „Българския етимологичен речник“)

Author(s): Hristina Deykova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The paper applies a systematic approach to the etymologization of Bulgarian dialect words of Turkish origin. The object of analysis are Turkish loanwords with initial a- from the Dictionary of an archaic Rhodope dialect – the dialect of Ropkata, published in 2022. Specific phonetic changes are described, whose regularity in the dialect helps to find other dialectal variants of the words under consideration and to identify the Turkish primary source. The analyzed words are not included in Volume I of the Bulgarian Etymological Dictionary, and the majority of them are not reflected in the corresponding entries of the Dictionary of Turkisms in Bulgarian, so they are related to the respective etymological word families for the first time. Clarifications, additions and corrections are made to some of the existing etymologies or a new etymological interpretation is proposed. Emphasis is placed on the variation of the borrowed dialect lexis, which is of great importance for discovering the foreign language etymon.

Българските неопределителни местоимения с елемента 'си' и съответствията им в украински език

Author(s): Ivan Derzhanski,Olena Siruk / Language(s): Bulgarian,Ukrainian Publication Year: 0

The paper addresses three groups of Bulgarian indefinite pronouns and pronominal expressions incorporating the element си and their Ukrainian counterparts in a parallel bilingual corpus. The study shows that the pronouns of the type еди-Q си mostly correspond to demonstrative pronouns or expressions featuring a demonstrative pronoun in combination with a deictic particle (-ось, -от or -то). Indefinite pronouns proper (of the types Q-сь, Q-небудь and де-Q), as well as demonstrative pronouns in combination with the reflexive pronouns собі, primarily correspond to Bulgarian pronouns of the type нѣ-Q си, whereas the expressions не знам/помня Q си have Ukrainian expressions with a parallel structure, including a cognitive verb, as their most frequent counterparts.

Замяна на езиковите табута с евфемизми в украински и полски посредством семантична деривация

Author(s): Olena Voytseva / Language(s): Bulgarian,Polish,Ukrainian Publication Year: 0

The article is devoted to the problem of semantic derivation in the field of euphemistic vocabulary. Euphemization is a dynamic phenomenon caused by linguistic and extra-linguistic factors. The replacement of linguistic taboos with euphemisms is based on the processes of secondary nomination, which involves the use of existing nominative means as new names of entities, processes, phenomena, actions. The creation of euphemistic vocabulary in Ukrainian and Polish is carried out through metonymic, metaphorical and functional transfers and generalization. Universal euphemisms in both languages arise due to the fact that most semantic models are formed by the same type of cultural codes, ones that are reflected in the language. Distinctive euphemistic nominations in Ukrainian and Polish define a specific view of the world, resulting from national and cultural factors and the historical development of the languages.

Жанровая модель заключения судебного эксперта (на материале английского, болгарского, польского и русского языков)

Author(s): Stanisław Goźdź-Roszkowski,Julia Mazurkiewicz-Sułkowska / Language(s): English,Bulgarian,Russian,Polish Publication Year: 0

The literature devoted to legal linguistics often ignores documents encountered in court discourse which contain expert conclusions (forensic investigation). This article attempts to determine the genre model of expert opinions. As part of it, there is also a brief explanation of the legal and cultural context of how judicial expertise works, since it directly affects the structure of the documents we are interested in. The authors compare the conclusions of forensic experts using documents taken from the Anglo-Saxon legal system (common law) and from the civil law system (Polish, Russian, and Bulgarian).
