The structure and semantics of analytical constructions of the predicate in the Turkic languages of Siberia in the works of Siberian Turkologists

The article analyzes works on the study of the analytical predicate (AK) in the Turkic languages of Siberia. It is noted that the beginning of the active study of analytical constructions on the material of Siberian Turkic languages was laid by M.I. Cheremisina. In his works M.I. Cheremisina (mainly on the material of the Altai language) formulated and substantiated the classification of AK predicates in the Turkic languages of Southern Siberia. She identified three classes of AKs, and within each class she examined the types and subtypes of forms. She established that the primary function of AK is the function of a finite multicomponent predicate. Based on the results of the analysis of the AK of the predicate in the Turkic languages of Southern Siberia, presented in the works of M. I. Cheremisina and Siberian Turkologists, one can see that the studied AK are polysemantic and have a complex syntactic structure. The structural forms of predicates, and the specific grammatical meanings that are expressed using these forms, are extremely diverse. In subsequent works by Siberian scholars, the structural-semantic strategy of describing the AC of the predicate made it possible to obtain answers to questions about the structure of aspectual-temporal, modal and infinitive ACs. In the studies of Turkologists and Siberian scholars, it is noted that aspectual semantic features are associated with temporal and modal ones as part of aspectual-temporal-modal semantic analytical complexes. The class of analytical multicomponent predicates combines several functional-semantic types of predicates, each of which is represented by a certain set of structural forms. It is also noted that the analytical constructions of the predicate of modal-comparative semantics have not yet been sufficiently studied. In studies on the Tuvan, Altai, and Yakut languages, structural complexes with the form of the verb bol= are considered. The forms of the verb bol in the Tuvan language identify the subject of comparison with the standard and express an apparent feigned-simulative action. In addition, the texts use syntactic constructions of the predicate, expressing the relationship of the message being communicated or the message itself to reality with the postpositions deg, ishkash. The morphological (synthetic means) level is represented by the use of the affix -syg. The degree of productivity of using certain means of expressing the meaning of comparison is different.

Abstract

The article analyzes works on the study of the analytical predicate (AK) in the Turkic languages of Siberia. It is noted that the beginning of the active study of analytical constructions on the material of Siberian Turkic languages was laid by M.I. Cheremisina. In his works M.I. Cheremisina (mainly on the material of the Altai language) formulated and substantiated the classification of AK predicates in the Turkic languages of Southern Siberia. She identified three classes of AKs, and within each class she examined the types and subtypes of forms. She established that the primary function of AK is the function of a finite multicomponent predicate. Based on the results of the analysis of the AK of the predicate in the Turkic languages of Southern Siberia, presented in the works of M. I. Cheremisina and Siberian Turkologists, one can see that the studied AK are polysemantic and have a complex syntactic structure. The structural forms of predicates, and the specific grammatical meanings that are expressed using these forms, are extremely diverse. In subsequent works by Siberian scholars, the structural-semantic strategy of describing the AC of the predicate made it possible to obtain answers to questions about the structure of aspectual-temporal, modal and infinitive ACs. In the studies of Turkologists and Siberian scholars, it is noted that aspectual semantic features are associated with temporal and modal ones as part of aspectual-temporal-modal semantic analytical complexes. The class of analytical multicomponent predicates combines several functional-semantic types of predicates, each of which is represented by a certain set of structural forms. It is also noted that the analytical constructions of the predicate of modal-comparative semantics have not yet been sufficiently studied. In studies on the Tuvan, Altai, and Yakut languages, structural complexes with the form of the verb bol= are considered. The forms of the verb bol in the Tuvan language identify the subject of comparison with the standard and express an apparent feigned-simulative action. In addition, the texts use syntactic constructions of the predicate, expressing the relationship of the message being communicated or the message itself to reality with the postpositions deg, ishkash. The morphological (synthetic means) level is represented by the use of the affix -syg. The degree of productivity of using certain means of expressing the meaning of comparison is different.
