Abstract

Abstract In Beserman, a new converb grammaticalizes from the possessive locative form of the locative noun in (o)ń-ńig . We show that the constructions with the converb have a clausal structure, while the constructions with the locative noun are mostly noun phrases, even if they include an indication of the agent and patient of the situation encoded by the locative noun. Semantically, the two types of constructions are also different. In the converb constructions the situations encoded by the main and the embedded clause must overlap, while with locative nouns this is not necessarily the case. The temporal reference of locative nouns is habitual/iterative, while converbs often have episodic (non-habitual) interpretation. The original locative noun denotes a reference to a fixed location where the situation usually takes place. In the constructions with the converb this meaning is bleached and generalized as an action which takes place in any possible location.

源于贝瑟曼语中位置名词的一种新的转换词
[摘要]贝瑟曼从(o) ski -ńig中位置名词的所有格位置形式衍生出一种新的转换语法。我们发现,带有转换词的结构具有从句结构,而带有位置名词的结构大多是名词短语,即使它们包含了由位置名词编码的情景的施者和受者的指示。在语义上,这两种结构也不同。在转换结构中,主句和嵌入子句所编码的情况必须重叠,而对于位置名词则不一定如此。位置名词的时间指称是习惯性的/迭代的,而转换词通常有情景性的(非习惯性的)解释。原来的位置名词指的是通常情况发生的固定地点。在带有转换词的构式中,这一含义被淡化并概括为在任何可能地点发生的行为。

期刊介绍: Studies in Language provides a forum for the discussion of issues in contemporary linguistics from discourse-pragmatic, functional, and typological perspectives. Areas of central concern are: discourse grammar; syntactic, morphological and semantic universals; pragmatics; grammaticalization and grammaticalization theory; and the description of problems in individual languages from a discourse-pragmatic, functional, and typological perspective. Special emphasis is placed on works which contribute to the development of discourse-pragmatic, functional, and typological theory and which explore the application of empirical methodology to the analysis of grammar.
