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.

Терминологичната лексика в „Новъ турско-българскы писмовникъ“ (1873) от Стоил Попов и Иван Чорапчиев

Author(s): Nadka Nikolova,Miyryam Salim / Language(s): Turkish,Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The object of this paper is the study of a bilingual letter book with a view to the employed terminological means. They are presented in several thematic fields and interpreted in terms of their composition, semantics and etymology. Of particular interest is the terminological lexicon in letters of an administrative, legal and commercial nature, which belong to several areas: administrative units and institutions; legal and administrative terminology; documents, acts and other forms of public interaction; positions and posts; commercial and financial terminology. The terminological lexis is structured as small dictionaries, presenting the term words and phrases independently. The dictionaries explain the meaning of each term, accompanied by an etymological reference.

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.

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).

За синтаксиса на предикатите за желание

Author(s): Yovka Tisheva,Marina Dzhonova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The article treats the argument structure of desiderative predicates in Bulgarian as a subclass of psychological state predicates. Their possible complements – nominal phrase, prepositional phrase or a complement clause – are presented. The observations are based on the syntactic realization of the predicates искам ‘want’, желая ‘wish’, надявам се ‘hope’. The referential structure of the predicate arguments is taken into account. A conclusion about the syntactic realization of this subclass of predicates in comparison with the syntactic realization of other predicates with experiencer subject is made.

Лексикализация на устойчивите изрази с неопределителна семантика от типа „не знам (си) кой (си)“

Author(s): Laska Laskova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The paper offers a comprehensive analysis of the structure and distribution of Bulgarian indefinite multiword expressions following the pattern ne znam (si) k-word (si) (NEG know.1SG.PRS (REFL) k-word (REFL)). The syntactic behavior of each member of the series is illustrated with numerous examples from Internet discourse.While it is possible for an adverb or even a preposition to occur within the complex, these expressions fill in positions available to pronouns, not to clauses, and denote specific non-identifiable referents. Therefore, ne znam (si) k-word(si) expressions should be categorized as compound indefinites.

За една българско-полска фразеологична успоредица

Author(s): Diana Blagoeva,Joanna Satoła-Staśkowiak / Language(s): Bulgarian,Polish Publication Year: 0

The article examines the history and usage of a specific type of phraseological units with a component гарван, врана / kruk, wrona (‘raven’, ‘crow’) in Bulgarian and Polish. These phraseological units have a common origin related to the ancient cultural heritage of European nations and initially share a close meaning. However, their development in the two languages takes different paths, leading to the emergence of interlinguistic asymmetry. The conducted research demonstrates that interlinguistic equivalence relationships in phraseology are dynamic and can change over time depending on the characteristics of intra-linguistic developmental processes.

Псевдопосесивни конструкции (у + родителен падеж) в руския език и техните български паралели.

Author(s): Galina Ivanovna Kustova ,Elena Yu. Ivanova / Language(s): Bulgarian,Russian Publication Year: 0

The paper discusses different types of situations in which the possessive group u + genitive is used to encode the subject. In Russian, such a group can be a marker of a wide range of subjects, including possessor (У него две собаки ‘He has two dogs’); experiencer subject of internal states (У меня было чувство/подозрение, что Р ‘I had a feeling/suspicion’), subject of involvement (У нас пожар ‘At our place we have a fire’; У него обыск ‘They conduct a search at his place’; У меня чайник перегорел ‘My kettle got burnt’), agent referent in situations with suppressed or lost control (У меня встреча ‘I have a meeting’; У меня мотор не заводится ‘My motor does not start’). Due to the coding of the subject by the u-group, all such situations receive a pseudo-possessive conceptualization. The Bulgarian correspondences to these Russian constructions have been analysed on the material from the parallel corpus.

Фразеологична еквивалентност (въз основа на български и хърватски фразеологизми)

Author(s): Ana Vasung / Language(s): Bulgarian,Croatian Publication Year: 0

As one of the key questions of contrastive phraseology, the question of equivalence arises, i.e. the coincidence of idioms in two or more languages. The present text develops already existing typologies of cross-linguistic phraseological equivalence on the basis of Bulgarian and Croatian phraseology. Structural-semantic equivalences, partially structural equivalences with matching semantics, semantic equivalences, and also null equivalence are defined. The criteria for determining the type of equivalence are: structural, semantic, motivational (background aspect), stylistic and use criteria.

The category of evaluation and its representation in contemporary Ukrainian internet discourse

Author(s): Olena Voytseva,Daria Kryvenchenko / Language(s): Ukrainian Publication Year: 0

The paper provides an analysis of the evaluative potential of verbal and non-verbal means within the category of evaluation in contemporary Ukrainian internet discourse. These linguistic tools are employed to exert linguistic influence on the audience. Rational and emotional evaluation is integral to the lexical meaning of words,phrases, and sentences, reflecting a positive or negative attitude towards the respective subjects, facts, and events in the surrounding world. The implementation of evaluation at the lexical level is manifested in archaic lexical units with a touch of formality (безсмертя, героїзм), in expressively colored vocabulary (slang, colloquialisms, vulgarisms, abusive words) (запроданець, визискувач), and in neologisms. Maximum influence on the consciousness and behavior of the addressee is achieved through the metaphorical use of words, as secondary nominations impart imagery, expressiveness, emotional content, and originality to texts, attracting the attention of readers. The implication of the author’s subjective evaluation with the aim of shaping a particular attitude towards events and presented information is realized within the specific mass media context through the use of vocabulary which names precedent phenomena, and other linguistic means.

Towards detailed semantic classes of nouns

Author(s): Svetla Koeva / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The primary objective of the study is to present an approach for effectively classifying noun classes, facilitating the specification of syntagmatic combinations between verbs and nouns. It offers a concise overview of the semantic classifications of nouns in WordNet, Corpus Pattern Analysis, and FrameNet from the perspective of verb-noun compatibility. Mapping the appropriate WordNet synsets with the semantic types of Corpus Pattern Analysis, FrameNet and with the selective preferences of Verb Atlas allows the creation of an Extended Ontology of Noun Semantic Classes. The contribution of this development lies in detailing the steps for selecting an appropriate set of semantic classes whose members are suitable for the syntactic realisation of certain frame elements.
