Abstract

Languages differ in the way they code causal-noncausal alternations, in which an event is presented as either having an external causer or happening by itself. Some languages make no distinction between the two situations, while others make a morphosyntactic distinction. Yiddish, a Germanic language, differs from other genealogically close Germanic varieties: Yiddish codes causal-noncausal alternation similarly to the coterritorial Slavic languages with which it was in contact, for instance Polish and Russian. The two tendencies that make Yiddish similar to the Slavic languages in this respect are the rise of anticausative marking (direct calquing) and the development of a causative (preference for overt marking).

区域视角下的意第绪语因果非因果交替
语言在编码因果非因果交替的方式上有所不同,在非因果交替中,事件被呈现为具有外部原因或自身发生。有些语言不区分这两种情况,而另一些语言则进行形态句法区分。意第绪语是一种日耳曼语,与其他谱系相近的日耳曼语变体不同:意第绪语序编码因果非因果交替,类似于它所接触的同领地斯拉夫语,例如波兰语和俄语。使意第绪语在这方面与斯拉夫语言相似的两个趋势是反因果标记(直接calquing)的兴起和因果标记(偏好显性标记)的发展。
