Book Synopsis Mongolic Elements in Tuvan by : Bayarma Khabtagaeva
Download or read book Mongolic Elements in Tuvan written by Bayarma Khabtagaeva and published by Otto Harrassowitz Verlag. This book was released on 2009 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tuvan is one of the archaic Turkic languages. A powerful Mongolic influence means that it possibly also has more Mongolic elements than other Turkic languages. Results of the present work are based on a database of approximately 1500 Mongolic loanwords. After confirming the Mongolic origin of these words in Tuvan, etymological, phonetical and morphological aspects are listed to assure, when and from which Mongolian language the loanword was taken. The study demonstrates the powerful Mongolic influence on Tuvan and establishes what linguistic criteria are available to characterize and classify the Mongolic loanwords. Accordingly an earlier and a later layer are distinguished. The later layer further comprises three groups of loanwords, the Buryat, Khalkha and Oirat ones.

Book Synopsis Shamanic Dialogues with the Invisible Dark in Tuva, Siberia by : Konstantinos Zorbas
Download or read book Shamanic Dialogues with the Invisible Dark in Tuva, Siberia written by Konstantinos Zorbas and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2021-02-15 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intentional acts of “assault sorcery”, involving operations of extracting the souls of unsuspecting victims or eliminating one’s antagonists, are central to the perceived proliferation of occult threats and shamanic assassins in Tuva, Siberia. Following the restoration of shamanism as an official religion in the region, indigenous spiritual practitioners have propagated a vindictive strand of rituals, associated with supernatural retaliation and political assassination. This book probes the unforeseen implications of state-sanctioned appropriations of religious revival, through an unsettling context of encounters with various agencies embodying “dark shamanism”. The invisible presence of this shamanic complex is manifested in the book’s presentation of a shaman’s thoughts about an epidemic of curses, his counter-cursing rituals for Russians and ethnic Tuvans, and his dialogues with dead shamanic ancestors and spectres experiencing ideological tensions.

Book Synopsis The Effects of Duration and Sonority on Countour Tone Distribution by : Jie Zhang
Download or read book The Effects of Duration and Sonority on Countour Tone Distribution written by Jie Zhang and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-16 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 2002. Part of the Outstanding Dissertations in Linguistics series, this is an in-depth investigation of the effects of duration and sonority on contour tone distribution. The term “tone language” usually refers to languages in which the pitch of a syllable serves lexical or grammatical functions. In some tone languages, the contrastive functions of pitch are sometimes played by pitch changes within a syllable. Pitch changes of this kind are called contour tones. The distribution of contour tones in a language, are when under what phonological contexts contour tones are more readily realized.
Book Synopsis Positional Faithfulness by : Jill N. Beckman
Download or read book Positional Faithfulness written by Jill N. Beckman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-11 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1999. This study developed from a dissertation in 1993, when the author undertook what she thought would be a simple Optimality Theory analysis of Shona vowel harmony. Having initially treated Shona height harmony as a case of featural alignment, akin to Kirchner's 1993 analysis of Turkish she realized that alignment constraints alone could not account for one central aspect of the Shona case: the priority of initial syllable features in determining the outcome of harmony. This volume of research outlines the authirs discoveries.

Book excerpt: The papers brought together in the present volume deal with grammatical, lexical, onomastic and historical issues of non-Muslim Turkic languages and dialects spoken in South Siberia, in Mongolia and in China, and with the areal and genetic relationships between them. All of these varieties are socially dominated by non-Turkic languages; many of them are acutely endangered and, in general, insufficiently described.

Some typological issues concerning the Turkic languages of the area are also touched upon.
