This article presents an analysis of the categorial status of English and Bulgarian participles with special attention to the prenominally used participles. First, we isolate a group of English participles, which we call postmodified participles, which we show to be real verbal participles (not adjectival phrases), something that has been, to my knowledge, unnoticed so far. The analysis of these participles is extended to Bulgarian, where they can occur also in prenominal position. The fact that the prenominal position in Bulgarian can host clearly verbal participles is used as an argument against the wide-spread view that prenominal participles in English are all adjectival expressions. In particular, we argue that the impossibility of the postmodified participles to occur in prenominal position in English is simply due to the right recursion restriction and not to their being verbal. We provide also some semantic evidence showing that prenominally used English participles are not necessarily „stative“, as suggested in the literature. Finally, we analyse some English phrases in which the prenominally used participle can be argued to be a verbal and not an adjectival or an ambiguous expression.

In this paper I investigate the properties of the future in Dialectal Modern Greek spoken in Bulgaria. Even though future has been described before, the analysis of its actual dialect use remains interesting for the Sparchbund and more generally for typology. I will base my analysis on the aspectual model of Desclés and Guentchéva in order to explain the double aspect (perfective and imperfective) and its particular uses in Dialectal Modern Greek. I will argue that the use of future-referring periphrases (as θe na) provides evidence for the relation between future and modality and I will try to explain the link between future on the one hand, and possibility, probability and volition, on the other hand.

The article discusses both traditional and less common views of polysemy in terminology, il- lustrating them with Bulgarian and English naval terms. Polysemy, which is a manifestation of language variation and the tendency towards economy, is more strongly represented in English naval terminology. There is asymmetry between the two languages, one of the corresponding terms often having a wider/narrower meaning. In cases of borrowing of English naval terms into Bulgarian, semantic distinctions may be expressed by different suffixation. Polysemy rarely causes ambiguities leading to communication breakdown.

The article offers a brief characterization of evidentiality in Bulgarian which, in addition to lexical and syntactic expression, finds morphological expression primarily, and of evidentiality in Polish. Lexical and syntactic markers predominate there and only one construction ma + infinitive in one of its uses approaches the Bulgarian renarrated forms. Two types of sociolinguistic changes in indirect speech, noticeable in the Bulgarian press after 1989, are also discussed: changes in the choice of forms in reports from abroad and in rendering statements made by officials at home.

The present paper attempts to list the major devices for adjectival intensification as found in original English and American fictional texts and their Bulgarian counterparts. Intensity here is understood in a broad sense as a quantitative realization of expressivity, a scale registering a person’s emotional response to the state-of-affairs. Given this theoretical premise then, it is the securing of the pragmatic impact on the Bulgarian reader that will be of paramount importance, since it is pragmatic meaning that deals with the relationship between the linguistic sign and its user: speaker/hearer, writer/reader.

The topic that the present article studies is the verbal category ‘imperative mood’, characteristic of all contemporary Slavic languages. The paper attempts to make a typological classification of Slavic imperative paradigms with regard to various distinctive criteria, defined in the course of the analysis. It investigates the level of unification and structural analogy; but at the same time it raises the question of formal-semantic asymmetry when the imperative forms find their grammatical realization in the nucleus of modality. The unique place of Bulgarian among other kindred languages in respect of the great diversity of analytical forms, a result of the specific intralinguistic changes, is pointed out. The concluding part of the study presents some of the recent tendencies in the functioning of Slavic imperatives.

В статье рассматриваются способы создания несобственно-прямой речи в болгарском и русском языках. Разграничиваются две разновидности: 1) в описательном авторском тексте с психологическим анализом, который незаметно уступает место речи самого персонажа и 2) в косвенной речи, которая не передает только содержание чужого высказывания, а включает экспрессивные элементы и индивидуальные особенности прямой речи персонажа. В обоих случаях речь становит полифоничной: наряду с голосом автора слышен и голос персонажа. Подчеркивается значение пересказывательных форм для создания несобственно-прямой речи в болгарском языке и прослеживается их функция в различных контекстуальных условиях. Указывается на то, что язык современной художественной литературы приближается к непринужденной разговорной ре, это оказывает влияние на авторский план и на все виды чужой речи.

The paper aims to present, first, an integrated approach to whole texts and genres exemplifying the ‘triangle of discourse-cognition-society which is indeed the site of multidisciplinary discourse analysis’ (Van Dijk) and, secondly, to suggest an alternative perspective to ‘old’ areas of research such as the analysis of political speeches. It illustrates the potential of studying the production and perception of individual text genres as governed by particular mental models. Such mental models, it argues, are possible to isolate analytically and verify statistically. Differences in English- and Bulgarian-language political speeches are used to demonstrate the possible application of the suggested approach.

The paper re-examines two specific features of morphological marking in Bulgarian from the perspective of verbal and satellite framing effects for the expression of grammatical relations. The dative and reflexive clitics in a special construction prefix + verb + dative + reflexive clitic is reanalyzed as constituted of a verb plus a satellite with aspectual or rather Aktionsart meaning. The intricate, and as yet of undetermined status, particle да is reinterpreted as an auxiliary which again appears as a satellite. The contention is that English and Bulgarian are not so far apart in the correlation between verb framing and satellite framing in relation to temporality as it appears on the surface. The analysis is carried out within the framework of cognitive semantics (L. Talmy) and uses the findings of Heine, Kuteva and K. Rudin on problems concerning auxiliation processes.

This article deals with some problems related to the definition and the analysis of the linguistic mechanisms governing the competition between the most frequently used temporal conjunctions in modern French and in modern Bulgarian. The first part of the study examines an interesting question of the syntax of French compound phrases with a temporal subordinate clause, namely the alternation between the most typical temporal conjunctions quand and lorsque, es129 pecially in economic and scientific functional style. It is proved that the preference for quand is, generally, a result from the engagement of the speaking subject to processes expressed by the verb of the subordinate temporal clause in opposition to lorsque, which prevails when such an engagement is lacking. The second part considers the competition between the most important Bulgarian temporal conjunctions когато and като, as an analogy to the phenomenon studied in French, in spite of the different factors being at its basis.

Analyses of the acoustic correlates of stress and results from a perception experiment suggest important differences in the way stress is signalled: except for F0 max, the values for which were bigger in Bulgarian, all other acoustic cues under investigation seemed to be less strong in Bulgarian, a language exhibiting features of both stress-timed and syllable-timed rhythmic organization, than in English, a language tending towards the stress-timed end of the rhythm scale.

The article presents some of the most important tendencies in the formation of nouns denoting persons in Bulgarian and in Czech from the end of the 1970s until nоw, especially in connection with the democratic changes in 1989. It is pointed out that as a result of democratization and internationalization of the lexical systems some word-formation processes were activated during the period: coining of so called abbreviated compound nouns beginning with агро-, евро-, еко-, енерго-, нарко-, юго- (in Bulgarian); coining of nouns with foreign prefixes; formation of nouns for female persons derived from nouns for male persons (in Bulgarian); creating of nouns by means of univerbization, abbreviation etc. The new tendency for personal nouns with топ- as their first component to be formed in Bulgarian is to be explained with the influence of the English language.

The lexemes man and people and their most frequent synonyms in Portuguese and in Bulgarian are analysed contrastively in this paper. It is obvious from the analysis that the treated lexical units have quite clear content only at first glance. In fact it is because of their small number of semantic features that they enter into complex interrelations and they often function as pronouns showing considerable differences in the two contrasted languages.

The paper is a detailed contrastive study of the dictionary definitions of the items one and един and their functions in original texts and their translations. On the basis of this analysis the author concludes that all the various functions of one, because of which it is often defined as belonging to various classes of words (or parts of speech), can by systematized and presented as a cline, starting with its basic numerical use to denote the singleness of an object of speech, or a certain quality of this object. Then come its more or less purely structural functions as a substitute for the name of such an object or quality, already mentioned in the text or existing in the common index-field of the participants in a speech act, or as a prop-word. Following along this cline is the use of one as a noun, i. e. with denoting functions, and finally as a morpheme with an active word-formative pattern, the elements of which are used with a variety of pragmatic nuances of the invariant meaning of singularity.

The present article deals with the contrastive description of the phonologic systems of the two languages and meets the necessity of explaining the main difficulties arising in the process of teaching Hindi to Bulgarians.

The influence of the phonological characteristics of Bulgarian on the speech of Bulgarians studying Hindi has been taken into consideration. Special attention has been paid to the possibility of using their own linguistic experience while improving the articulation base in order to achieve the most adequate perception of the Hindi language and to overcome not only the interfering influence of their mother tongue, but also of the Bulgarian- Hindi interlanguage.

KW - Contrastive Studies KW - съпоставителни изследвания AB -

The literature on Slavic phonetics reveals a controversy about certain vowels and consonants. Dictionaries typically do not give phonetics, or if they do, it is not standard IPA. This creates problems for both researchers and teachers. These difficulties are met here by the attempt to give more careful description of articulations, and provide a better descriptive analysis than is presently available. A system is presented for the consistent and precise location of vowels. In addition, a standard articulation chart and standard descriptions are provided. This extended IPA system is used as the basis of phonetic descriptions, analysis and comparison. Emphasis is on the specific case or paradigm method of the philosophy of science so that numerous examples must of necessity be given. This contrasts with the usual article on phonology, which provides the fewest number or examples required to support a general or universal hypothesis. The examples here provide data for phonology, further research, comparative and contrastive phonetics, as well as to aid the language teacher and learner.

The comparison between the aspect systems of a Slavic and a Romance language raises a number of theoretical and practical problems. It requires a precise and unified use of terminology, which is unfortunately not always the case, especially in French. The automatic transfer of the terms „perfective/imperfective“ from Bulgarian to French is practically impossible because the aspectual systems of the two languages function in a different way. In Bulgarian aspect is expressed by a pair of perfective and imperfective verbs, while in French it functions through two symmetrical subsystems of simple and complex verb tenses. The aspect implied in the lexical meaning of the verb is strongly influenced by the syntactic context. The article proves the necessity of a rigid distinction between aspect and tense; it discusses the question of precision in naming the verb tenses, the terms do not always reflect the linguistic reality. This is valid for both languages discussed.

In that article are analysed in juxtaposition the most considerable similarities and differences of the two adverbials here/there in both languages. The main regularities and their realization in speech are rationalized. An attempt is made to define more accurately the communicative factor (linguistic, situational or psychological), dynamically affecting the selection and usage of a suitable adverbial unit. The conclusion that the Bulgarian adverbs here/there have a more universal applicability is substantiated. The Finnish equivalents have more accurate semanticgrammatical frames and function within multilateral subordination to the communicative circumstances.

Bulgarian and Russian aphasia patients made approximately twice as many Dative/Accusative case-marker errors on verbs with generally inconsistent interlanguage case markings than on verbs whose interlanguage case marking is fairly consistent. These results suggest that paragrammatic case-marking errors reflect not purely morphological-level impairment, but rather a semantic deficit, i. e., impaired access to individual case-associated semantic features of the verb. Based on the data, it is proposed that „conflicting case marking“ verbs contain a fairly balanced proportion of both dative- and accusative-associated semantic features, and that the dative/accusative opposition is essentially a temporal one, based on the opposition [+/- cognitive engagement] on the part of the non-agent to the action presented by the verb.

The paper is an analysis of the semantic and pragmatic properties of Well and the different transformations which Well-prefaced sentences undergo in Bulgarian. The meaning with which Well functions in a particular context is considered to be a result of the influence of the linguistic and non-linguistic environment but unlike many authors who have analysed Well and other pragmatic particles, the present study presents the hypothesis that these items have an inherent meaning of their own. The latter is regarded as a prototype which is supplemented by variable components. The method of analysis used is Predication Analysis by means of which different semantic and pragmatic meanings of the particle are identified and the adequacy of the translations is tested.

It is argued that the value of these parameters determines some of the major differences between English and Bulgarian in the choice of an existential sentence (the there construction and the impersonal има) or of a personal construction (with have and the personal имам, respectively). Unlike English, the Bulgarian existential има construction is not the choice in the case of Internal Space and/or a more essential part : whole relationship, owing to the specificity of the verb, itself the result of a shift towards impersonality.

The article takes into consideration the two main methods that can be used in contrastive analysis of word-formation in related languages: from form to meaning and from meaning to form. The choice is determined by the purpose of the description and also by the degree of typological relatedness between the compared language systems. With Slavic languages, for example, the description starting from the means of word-formation and analysing their function gives wide opportunities for a more detailed analysis and a thorough description of the multifunctioning of the formants; for determining the similarities and differences in the means of wordformation. The second method from meaning to form is more universal; it aims mainly at revealing the semantics of the derivatives, and is thus applicable to the investigation of more than two languages. This method starts from definite semantic categories and searches for their realization. The basic unit in this method is the word-formation category. It can be used as tertium comparationis, for it unifies derivatives with identical word-formative meaning. The method allows the simultaneous analysis of all compared languages. It may facilitate a more thorough and precise classification of the derivative units by specifying the general and the specific national features of the related language systems.

VL - 19 IS - 6 ER - TY - JOUR T1 - Aspectual oppositions in Bulgarian, Albanian and Turkish JF - Съпоставително езикознание / Сопоставительное языкознание / Contrastive linguistics Y1 - 1992 A1 - Victor А. Friedman KW - Contrastive Studies KW - съпоставителни изследвания AB -

In translated Bulgarian, Albanian and Turkish examples lacking the expected correspondences of aorists and imperfects, either Turkish or Bulgarian has an imperfect where the other two have aorists. This is evidence that the imperfect is more marked in each language since a more marked form is less likely to correspond to another language’s counterpart. The noncorresponding imperfects denote sequential or inceptive activities, which contradicts the meaning of contemporaneousness suggested for Bulgarian and Albanian. Perhaps because it is Indo-European like Bulgarian but lacks a superordinate aspectual opposition like Turkish, Albanian is intermediate in using the aorist when one of the others has an imperfect.

The article deals with causativity/factitivity of verbs in Hungarian in comparison with English. The author attempts to prove that Hungarian is one of the languages in which the distinction between the causative and the factitive is almost entirely grammaticalized. To describe more fully the causative constructions, sublativity and other factors should be taken into account. A conclusion is reached that Hungarian is not an appropriate counterexample against passive analyses of causative constructions and Comrie’s opinion should be argued against.

The article describes the Bulgarian and Swedish vowel systems, first separately in each language, then in a contrastive way. The prosodic system in both languages is also analysed and contrasted. The author shows that both the vowel and the prosodic systems are much more complicated in Swedish than in Bulgarian. This fact creates some difficulties in the field of teaching Swedish to Bulgarian speakers. The paper shows how these difficulties can be surmounted and gives concrete methodical recommendations.

This article attempts to delimitate „instrumental meaning“ as a semantic category from „object meaning“ on the one hand and „modal meaning“ on the other. Within the class of noun phrases designating instrumental meaning in both languages the group of noun phrases designating instrumental meaning (cut with a knife) is distinguished from noun phrases designating for instance means of transportation (go by train) or so-called auxiliary instruments (walk on stilts). The author discusses some specific difficulties as to the translation of instrumental noun phrases from German into Russian.

A generalized contrastive analysis of the French and the Bulgarian phonetic systems is made, with a focus on vowels. Some basic articulatory and structural differences are established. While contemporary French features a comparatively tense, primarily front and markedly labial way of articulation of vowels, Bulgarian features a comparatively loose, primarily back and non-labial way of articulation. In contrast to French, where nasal vowels function as separate phonemes, the nasalized vowels in Bulgarian are to be viewed as positional variants of the corresponding oral vowels. Along with these peculiarities, the difference between the accent patterns of the two languages is pointed out.

The article analyses the specific semantic conditions in which the individualizing force of the Slavic word ‘one’ in the position of a determiner of the predicative noun is realized. Its use in sentences containing a modifier само ‘only’ for the elimination of ambiguity in meaning is investigated, as well as its expressive function in defining the personal and professional qualities of an individual.

Some basic points arising in the contrastive study of analyticity in English and Bulgarian are considered. It is pointed out that the motivation for bilateral diachronic contrastive studies is usually weaker than for the respective synchronic studies. More productive in a number of cases are multilateral studies which ensure a higher degree of certainty in establishing constant correlations between the emergence of analyticity and language contacts. The preference for 124 simplified analytical structure is the manifestation of a universal communicative strategy in conditions of language contact.

The paper presents the results of a contrastive experimental phonetic study of assimilation phenomena appearing at the so-called outer-sandhi. The similarities and differences between German and Bulgarian in this process, which is physiologically conditioned, but specifically differentiated for the respective language systems, are investigated. Their close dependence upon a number of factors is taken into consideration. The results of the study can be used as the basis for the correction of some orthoepic rules in the field of „interword“ phonetics and in speech synthesis. The results may also be directly used in the teaching of phonetics to Bulgarian learners of German and vice versa.

The article is an attempt to reveal certain theoretically interesting aspects of so-called mixonyms like touriste + aristocrate → touristocrate that have only recently become an object of investigation. After a discussion of the terminological and the conceptual apparatus for the study of mixonyms, the authors present a short classification and dwell more extensively on the role of homophony in their formation. Homophony is seen as a consecutively destructuralizing and structuralizing element which allows a pseudomotivated transition from single meaning to parallel polysemy.

Problems concerning aspect and tense in Russian and French are discussed. Special attention is paid to actual (aspectual) present tense. With respect to the syntactic pattern it is assumed that the marked aspectual character of the Russian verb and the small number of tense forms has something to do with the comparative uniformity of morpho-syntactic means; in French, conversely, the various tenses determine its great morpho-syntactic complexity.

The basic values of the French passé simple and the Bulgarian aorist, on the one hand, and the French passé composé and the Bulgarian perfect, on the other hand, are compared. In French the aspectual distinction between completedness and noncompletedness is not grammaticalized, in contrast to Bulgarian where there is a morphological opposition between perfective and imperfective aspect. The tenses of the first pair always express an event. In the second pair, passé composé can express an event (in the sphere of the past) and a resultative situation (in the discourse sphere), whereas the perfect expresses a resultative situation in both spheres.

The article presents some theoretical and methodological principles, which can be applied in the contrastive analysis of the category of person. The attempt at defining the semantic category of person shows that its description should be based on an explicit discrimination between the pragmatic and the semantic level. Besides, if a complete list of the formal means of expressing semantic communicative roles is to be compiled, that is only possible within the framework of a description on the semantic level. The second part of the article shows a possible approach to the contrastive analysis of linguistic material from different languages (Bulgarian, Serbo-Croatian and Polish) in terms of the category of person.

The article is a contribution to the theory and practice of teaching German phonetics to Bulgarian learners. It focuses on German labialized front vowels which have no equivalents in Bulgarian. The study is carried out in two directions: (a) a contrastive analysis of German labialized front vowels and Bulgarian vowel phonemes, aimed at predicting possible pronunciation errors, and (b) a diagnosis of errors in the production of German labialized front vowels made by Bulgarian advanced learners.

Comparing invectives in Nordic and Slavic languages we find great similarities: principles and methods of verbal abuse are the same; some constructions are peculiar to the Germanic languages or at least their appearance in Slavic is uncertain, and some constructions are specifically Slavic, possibly belonging to a single language. Although the elements of the invective in the two groups of languages roughly behave uniformly, the pattern varies, each language showing a characteristic profile.

The paper contrasts German ‘process’ and ‘state’ passive constructions with their Bulgarian counterparts. Having established the categorial meaning of the passive voice and a definition of passive constructions, some possible uses of German passive constructions are presented and an attempt is made to describe them by metalinguistic means. The established characteristics serve as a basis of reference for finding their Bulgarian equivalents, which may be classified as: a) translated by passive constructions; b) translated by active constructions, i. e. there is a change in the voice of the verb; and c) some other ways of translation. As a result both the regularities and the restrictions in using each of the Bulgarian translation equivalents are presented.

A number of past tenses exist in French and in Bulgarian: the Aorist, the Perfect, the Imperfect, and the Pluperfect. The paper discusses the uses of the Perfect and its alternative Present tense forms in subordinate complement clauses. In French, as in all Romance languages, these clauses demand an obligatory sequence of tenses rule, while in Bulgarian there is an open choice between the obligatory Romance rule type and the non-sequence Slavic type.

A survey is made of the lexico-grammatical category of diminutivity in Bulgarian and French. The semantic, stylistic, derivational and quantitative aspects of the phenomenon are studied. It is established that morphemiс (synthetic) diminutivity is predominant in Bulgarian, whereas in French descriptive (analytic) diminutivity prevails. While French has lost many of its diminutive forms since the 16th c., in Bulgarian this phenomenon is alive even to this day. Statistic data show that diminutives have a tenfold higher frequency of occurrence in modern Bulgarian than in modern French.

The article is a contrastive study of nasalization in the following combination: vowel + n + fricative. It is established that in this combination the vowels are nasalized to almost the same degree in French and Bulgarian. The reason for that is the elimination of the feature occlusiveness of the n consonant in the two languages. However, whereas this phenomenon has led to phonologization of the nasal vowels in French, in Bulgarian reasons of morphosyntactic and semantic nature have prevented the nasalized vowels from becoming independent phonemes.

Nominal sentences are a universal linguistic category. The communicative nominal sentences may be classified according to the following criteria: a) structure (unexpanded and expanded sentences); b) semantics (representing descriptions of nature, the time of the action and its setting, the physical appearance and spiritual make-up of the characters); c) role in the text (introductive and conclusive). The skilful alternation between nominal and verbal sentences and nominal stanzas is an interesting stylistic device. Some authors (M. Cohen, T. Vianu) associate the more frequent use of nominal sentences with the spread of a specific literary tendency (Romanticism) and of a definite style (modern-impressionistic).

An attempt is made to distinguish a basic value for the Bulgarian perfect which, perforce, should remain compatible with the different uses of the perfect.

A new definition of aspectuality in general and of verbal aspect in particular is offered.

The aorist structure in modern Russian is studied on the basis of its different characteristic morpho-syntactic manifestations. In the ideal case aorist (perfective) structure is defined as the only one to characterize the narrative type of text (cf. H. Weinreich’s work on grammar tenses). As a notion pertaining to text syntax, this form lends itself to morpho-syntactic con125 figurations which belong to the complex sentence: agreement, subordination by means of conjunctions or adverbial participles. The consequences of the obligatory co-existence between the perfective and imperfective forms in a real, non-ideal text are discussed as well.

Some specific features of a group of Bulgarian prefixed verbs with a relatively independent prefix are analysed and some regularities in their analytic equivalents in French are established. The prefix is considered as a language element with substantial and functional content. Four types of prefixal, relatively independent verbal characteristics are distinguished: adverbial, quantitative, of degree and of phase. The conditions under which the Bulgarian prefixes for surface на-, по-, о-, have obligatory analytic equivalents in French are analysed.

Not infrequently, phenomena which should be distinguished are subsumed under aspectual oppositions. Thus, for example, a contrastive study of French and Bulgarian reveals that French does not possess the aspectual opposition, restrictive opposition (imperfective/perfective), characteristic of the Slavic languages. However, the two languages possess two other common aspectual oppositions: 1) phase opposition which contrasts the forms for non-completion with those for completion; 2) the opposition of dynamism based on the opposition imperfect (nondynamic)/aorist (dynamic). The latter opposition may be considered as sub-aspectual in so far as it is an opposition between two temporal forms both of which are characterized by noncompletion.

The article is part of a more detailed study on the role of the lexemes of French origin in Bulgarian. It is based on a comparison made between the first and the latest editions of Dictionary of Foreign Words in Bulgarian (1958 and 1978). The corpus contains 1537 terms excerpted from the 1958 edition and 1578 terms excerpted from the 1978 edition. The thematic fields to which these words belong and their influence on Bulgarian speakers are analysed. It is pointed out that many of these words are actually loan-words in French. In some cases the two editions of the dictionary give the etymology in a different manner.

The article is а survey of the loan-words borrowed from the modern Germanic languages (with the exception of English) which have penetrated into Bulgarian directly or indirectly for the last 100–150 years. The aim is to give a more complete and correct idea of their number and the regions where they are used. A more detailed analysis is made of the German loan-words and terms (over 950 in number) taken from MA theses, Речник на чуждите думи в българския език [Dictionary of Foreign Words in Bulgarian] and other lexicographic reference books. The Dutch loan-words (about 170) are presented after R. Detrez’s paper with certain additions and examples from South African Dutch. The Scandinavian loan-words (about 50) have been excerpted from Речник на чуждите думи в българския език [Dictionary of Foreign Words in Bulgarian] and other sources. Because of the limited size of the present article the meanings and etymons of the loan-words are not discussed.

The article considers the place of the Slavic languages among the other Indo-European languages using linguistic data and results from recent archaeological findings. Grammaticalization is the basic factor in the development of the morphological systems; its mechanism is illustrated with examples from the Indo-European and Slavic languages. The Slavic languages possess both a number of archaisms which are evidenced by the Anatolian languages, and innovations common to the Greco-Aryan group. The Baltic Slavonic language group is the most conservative group in late Indo-European (Indo-European III).

The comparison of international substantives ending in -ция in Bulgarian and their equivalents in German reveals a certain variety in the suffixation of the latter: -a(t)ion, -(t)ie, -enz, -anz, deriving from the Latin -(t)io, -(t)ia, -entia, -antia. In order to prevent inaccuracies in the reproduction of the German equivalents by Bulgarians, an additional segmentation that takes into account the component -V(C)-, i. e. vowel (+ consonant) before the syncretic suffix -ция is proposed in the article. On the basis of the transposition models thus established, some rare word-formation aberrations appear. Furthermore, possible stylistic and semantic divergences of structurally identical lexemes in both languages are pointed out. For the purposes of effective communication it is also important that the competition of international and domestic suffixes, as well as the synonymy of international and domestic lexemes should be observed.

The different uses with and without article are considered, as well as their free use and in combinations with dependent words. The tendency of the numerals to form a concrete grammar pattern is established; their combinatorial properties, semantic and grammatical, are analysed. The hypothesis about the presence of a collective meaning and a certain generalizing meaning in the semantics of these numerals is substantiated by statistical data from Bulgarian only. The main conclusion is that when used with the article the numerals два, двама, две have a collective meaning and a generalizing one.

Through distribution and stratification, the author aims at a more accurate characterization of the various methods (contrastive and typological in particular) used in Slavonic language studies. The study has been prompted by the existing inconsistency in their formulation which is, to a certain extent, understandable. The starting point is the continuity and mutual complementation of all methods of study used so far. The relative difference between these methods stems from their attitude towards the presumed parent language prototype of the phenomena which is valid only for the comparative method. The Slavonic languages, being genealogically related, display a number of structures (zones and objects) which can be studied not only comparatively but also contrastively and typologically. Thus, for example, a number of contrastive studies of languages in contact during the post- Proto-Slavonic period, such as the Byelorussian and Russian akan’e, the Polish mazurzenie etc. differ from the typological interpretation of phenomena such as the system of obligatory՛ open syllables in the Proto-Slavonic period, the appearance of the genus virile in some Slavonic languages, the Bulgarian citational forms, etc. A potential relationship and interdependence are assumed to exist between descriptive, comparative and historical linguistics. The reliability of the contrastive method is enhanced by соmparison, while it sometimes loses validity if the historical principle is neglected. The typological method is becoming increasingly reliable since it applies to the essential parameters and universal categories of language and facilitates its dynamic characterology.

The article discusses general problems of contrastive linguistics. The need of detailed descriptions of the compared languages is pointed out, although this is only a necessary but insufficient condition for successful contrastive analysis. The same linguistic theory, methodology and terminology should be applied to the compared languages. The communicative function of language assumes great importance in contrastive studies. A review is made of several theoretical models. The need of stratification is pointed out. Discussed are also the problems of the choice of topic, comparability, field theory, connections with foreign language teaching. Material from various languages is used by way of illustration.

This study examines the correlation between sex and gender in the two languages. Since there is no grammatical gender in English it is usually said that sex distinctions are purely semantic. In Bulgarian sex distinctions are often termed as grammatical. It is our belief that the expression of „sex“ is neither purely grammatical (in Bulgarian) nor purely semantic (in English). Structural, social and other factors are taken into consideration in the analysis of a corpus of about 3000 English and 2800 Bulgarian nouns, expressing „persons by profession, occupation or rank“. The final conclusion is that in expressing the distinctions of sex the similarities between English and Bulgarian are much greater than the differences. They may be attributed to the overpowering influence of social, historical and psychological factors which dominate over this semantic area.

The article discusses problems of the derivation of denominal verbs in present-day Standard Bulgarian. The Bulgarian material is compared with Polish material from R. Grzegorczykowa’s Finite Verbs in Present-day Polish. The results are different despite some common tendencies of word-formation in the two languages.

Contrastive analysis is becoming increasingly popular, although it has been used in the past, especially in combination with the comparative-historical approach. Byelorussian and Bulgarian have received little attention in this respect. The article raises some general problems of the comparison between the two genetically related languages. Byelorussian is a typical inflecting North Slavic language while Bulgarian is predominantly analytical. The first has been subject to bilingual contacts and convergence to the east and west, while the second, to multilingual Balkan influences. For the first, phonetic contact and syntactic separation have been more important, versus Bulgarian grammatical isolation. The differentiation of the two languages is largely based on socio-linguistic factors. Some tentative forecasts for future developments are also offered.

Исчезновение падежей в болгарском языке вызывает более частые употребления предлогов, взявших на себя функцию выражения падежных отношений. В связи с ней возникают вопросы, насколько возросла употребляемость предлогов, какие предлоги употребляются чаще, другими словами, какие предлоги взяли на себя функции падежей? В структурном плане эти изменения должны проявить себя в передвижении болгарских предлогов по частотным рангам при сравнении с другими языками, обладающими категорией падежа.

Gegenstand der vorliegenden Untersuchung sind die adverbialen Funktionen des Reflexivpronomens (Pronr) ce, cи, ceбe cи und die Ermittlung systemhafter lexikalisch-grammatischer Entsprechungen der bulgarischen Konstruktionen V + Pronr im Finnischen. Analysiert wurden vier Funktionsbereiche des Pronr: 1. Syntaktische Funktionen, Pronr fungiert in der vollen oder elliptischen dreigliedrigen Struktur /S → /P → Pronr als direktes, indirektes, reziprokes oder Präpositionalobjekt. 2. Morphosyntaktische Funktionen, Pronr fungiert in der zweigliedrigen Struktur S ← PPronr und der eingliedrigen Struktur P-Pronr, in denen der Komplex P-Pronr eine bestimmte grammatische Funktion erfüllt (passive Konstruktionen, unpersönliche Konstruktionen, passive und unpersönliche Konstruktionen mit modaler Bedeutung: Konstruktionen mit qualitativer Bedeutung, Konstruktionen mit permissiver, obligativer, prohibitiver Bedeutung, Konstruktionen mit potentieller Bedeutung, Konstruktionen mit voluntativer Bedeutung); 3. Wortbildende Funktionen, Pronr fungiert in der zweigliedrigen Struktur S → P-Pronr und der eingliedrigen Struktur P-Pronr, in denen der Komplex P-Pronr eine lexikalische Einheit bildet (morphosemantische Funktion und lexikalische Funktion). 4. Stilistische Funktion, fakultativer Gebrauch des Pronr als emotionalexpressive Verstärkung. Im Rahmen der vier Funktionsbereiche wurden insgesamt 17 spezifische Verwendungsweisen des Pronr in Verbindung mit einem Verb beschrieben und geeignete Ausdrucksmittel zu ihrer Wiedergabe im Finnischen aufgeführt. Die auf diese Weise ermittelten funktionalen Äquivalente des bulgarischen Reflexivpronomens können als eine prinzipielle Grundlage für die richtige Interpretation, Differenzierung und Transformation der polyfunktionalen bulgarischen Konstruktionen V + Pronr dienen.

Explicit“ and „implicit“ problems in the study of the verb in Polish and Bulgarian are the topic of the present article. Some of the general conclusions reached are as follows. The comparative development of the two genetically related languages is one of differentiation. The growing distance is due to developments of both conjugation and declension. Two types of factors are at work, sociolinguistic and structural-linguistic. In the sphere of the verb Polish shows a combination of inflection, agglutination and analyticity. There are hardly any traces of agglutination in Bulgarian. New hybrid, contextually determined forms, based on verbal components, is appearing in Polish as a result of agglutination.
