  • The Morphosyntax of Causative Relations in Czech and Upper Sorbian

    Gary H Toops, Gary H Toops Gary H ToopsARTICLEThe Slavonic and East European…2013

    The article provides a contrastive, descriptive analysis of the morphosyntax of causative relations in two closely related West Slavic languages — contemporary Czech and Upper Sorbian. Four types of causative constructions are identified: (a) contextual causatives, (b) causative ‘give’-constructions, (c) synsemantic causative constructions (incorporating the Czech causative auxiliaries nechávat/nechat and dávat/dát and the Upper Sorbian causative…

  • A Contrastive Perspective on Several Morphosyntactic Features of Upper Sorbian

    Gary H ToopsARTICLECanadian Slavonic Papers2006References: 1

    The article examines several morphosyntactic features of Upper Sorbian that are not shared by other Slavic languages. These include: a) conflation in the derivation of possessive forms of feminine nouns (both proper and common) and that of married women’s surnames, as evidenced by their occurrence in some serial possessive constructions; b) the apparent conflation or syncretism of the dative and accusative short forms of the Upper Sorbian reflexi…

  • The Grammar of "Paraphrastic Imperfectives" in Latvian and Upper Sorbian

    Gary H ToopsARTICLEThe Slavic and East European…2001

    Il existe dans les langues balto-slaves deux moyens de marquer l'aspect imperfectif : soit par prefixation, soit par des paraphrases. C'est ce second phenomene que traite l'article, plus particulierement en lette (Lettonie) et en haut sorabe (Allemagne). Bien que ces deux langues appartiennent au meme groupe de langues, l'A. tente de montrer dans une etude contrastive, par l'analyse des proprietes morphosyntaxiques et semantiques de ces tournures…

    Gary H Toops, Neil BermelARTICLELanguage1999

    This study advances a new approach to the history of Russian aspect, integrating recent work on aspectology with contemporary theories of language changes and development. Using data from five Old Russian texts, it traces the development of the aspectual oppostion from its early lexical roots to the 16th century, when contextual and discourse concerns came to the fore

    Gary H ToopsARTICLEThe Slavic and East European…1998

    L'emploi des verbes en haut sorabe differe de la plupart des langues slaves contemporaines dans la mesure ou pour certaines classes lexicales de verbes ou pour certains cadres temporels, les formes verbales qui ne presentent pas de suffixe du radical imperfectivisant (-owa-, -a-) sont utilisees de preference sans tenir compte de leur aspect. Les considerations sur l'aspect verbal sont ainsi, d'une maniere atypique, subordonnees a des criteres for…
