Download or read book Dictionary of Khotan Saka written by Harold Walter Bailey and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-06-10 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge University Press published (1945-1967) in six volumes Professor Bailey's transcriptions of Saka manuscripts found in Sin Kiang and Kansu (of the ancient kingdom of Khotan). They are central to any study of Old Iranian and the Iranian dialects; and they are also important for further understanding of the religious tradition in the sacred Avesta of the Zoroastrians, and for the history of the peoples of Central Asia generally. This 1979 dictionary represents the fulfilment of a plan formed in 1934 which required first the editing and transcription of the manuscripts, and then the slow elucidation of the whole corpus of texts. It contains a linguistic analysis and translation of all the Iranian words used in the texts. It is the necessary key to the understanding of the texts, to the mastery of the language itself, and to the linking of Khotan Saka into the Indo-European linguistic tradition.

Download or read book From Polysemy to Semantic Change written by Martine Vanhove and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the result of a joint project on lexical and semantic typology which gathered together field linguists, semanticists, cognitivists, typologists, and an NLP specialist. These cross-linguistic studies concern semantic shifts at large, both synchronic and diachronic: the outcome of polysemy, heterosemy, or semantic change at the lexical level. The first part presents a comprehensive state of the art of a domain typologists have long been reluctant to deal with. Part two focuses on theoretical and methodological approaches: cognition, construction grammar, graph theory, semantic maps, and data bases. These studies deal with universals and variation across languages, illustrated with numerous examples from different semantic domains and different languages. Part three is dedicated to detailed empirical studies of a large sample of languages in a limited set of semantic fields. It reveals possible universals of semantic association, as well as areal and cultural tendencies.

Download or read book A New Etymological Vocabulary of Pashto written by Georg Morgenstierne and published by Dr Ludwig Reichert. This book was released on 2003 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pashto is one of the national languages of Afghanistan, which is also spoken by a significant minority in Pakistan. An archaic language of the Iranian family, it offers a vocabulary of extraordinary variety and interest. As well as retaining many words inherited from Old Iranian and ultimately from proto-Indo-European, Pashto has also absorbed a great deal of foreign vocabulary, from Classical Greek to Persian and modern Indian. Georg Morgenstierne's "Etymological Vocabulary of Pashto", published in Oslo in 1927, was the first work to explore these multiple relationships in a systematic and comprehensive way. Soon after its publication, Morgenstierne began collecting material for a revised and expanded version, but thisremained unfinished when he died more than half a century later in 1978. After the lapse of another quarter of a century, it is at last possible to present the long-awaited "New Etymological Vocabulary of Pashto", a completely new work compiled from Morgenstierne's handwritten notes by three leading scholars in the field of Iranian linguistics. In all essentials it remains Morgenstierne's work, though considerably augmented by additional references which take into account the greatly increased information available today on modern Indo-Aryan as well as on Middle Iranian languages such as Bactrian and Khwarezmian. This work supersedes Morgenstierne's earlier "Etymological Vocabulary of Pashto" and will take its place beside the same author's "Etymological Vocabulary of the Shughni Group" (Reichert Verlag, 1974) as a standard modern work of reference on the history of the languages of Afghanistan. Complete indexes of all words cited from Iranian, Indo-Aryan and other languages help to make the contents accessible to those who are not specialists in Pashto or other Iranian languages.

Download or read book Etymological Vocabulary of the Shughni Group written by Georg Morgenstierne and published by Dr Ludwig Reichert. This book was released on 1974 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shughni is the most important member of a group of Eastern Iranian dialects spoken in the Pamirs, now fairly well known, largely thanks to the work of Soviet scholars. This group has retained a large number of ancient Iranian words, and the dialect variation of phonetical development enables us in many cases to reconstruct more archaic forms than the present ones.During many years, Georg Morgenstriene has assembled and analysed material from many scattered sources, including also words of Iranian "appearance", but of so far unknown etymology. The corpus of attested Old Iranian vocabulary being very restricted, and even that of Middle Iranian having numerous, large lacunae, the etymologies to be called from archaic, modern dialects will be of great value and interest to all students on Iranian linguistics.

Download or read book The Fingers and Their Names in the Iranian Languages written by Ela Filippone and published by Austrian Academy of Sciences Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume contains an analysis in a motivational perspective of all the words for 'finger' and the names of individual fingers in the Iranian languages, both ancient and modern, according to the lines of modern onomasiology. It also contains several cross-linguistic semasiological digressions with occasional sorties in conceptual domains other than finger. After a general introduction (chapter one), where the position of the human hand and fingers in human imagery, their ordinary functions, their symbolic value, their role in substaining devotional and ideological systems, their capacity to communicate, etc. are commented, the relevant words and expressions, grouped according to their iconomastic type, and inside these groupings, to their etymons, are discussed in the chapters two to seven, devoted to the general terms for finger and the names for thumb, forefinger, middle finger, etc. Looking for the 'pathways' through which the fingers have been conceptualized and verbalized, and going back (when possible) to the original source concepts, many regularities in the recurrent schemas have been proved to exist, some of which are universal, being present not only in Iranian or areally connected languages, but also in languages not related at all. A comprehensive word-index closes the volume. The present book, which follows the publication of the volume The Pupil of the eye in the Iranian languages (1995) by the same author, represents the first issue of an editorial project on the Iranian languages (Onomasiological Studies on Body-Part Terms), aimed at the diffusion of the results of a long-term research which has produced over the years a database including several thousands of Iranian words and expressions relevant to the body part lexical domain. For this purpose, the author has used sources often difficult to trace in Europe such as dictionaries, glossaries, dialectal literature and running texts, and for some languages (as Persian, Balochi, Baxtiari, Kurdish, Ossetic, etc.), also spoken texts recorded in different environments by native speakers.
