PREFACE This second edition of A Grammar of Modern Indo-European is a renewed effort to systematize the reconstructed phonology and morphology of Europe’s Indo-European. Modern Indo-European is common to most Europeans, and not only to some of them, as Latin, Germanic, or Slavic. Unlike Lingua Ignota, Solresol, Volapük, Esperanto, Quenya, Klingon, Lojban and the thousand invented languages which are imagined by individuals daily, PIE dialects are natural, i.e. they evolved from an older language – Proto-Indo-European, of which we have extensive knowledge –, and were spoken by prehistoric communities at some time roughly between 2500 and 2000 BC, having themselves evolved into different dialects already by 2000 BC. Proto-Indo-European and its dialects have been reconstructed in the past two centuries (more or less successfully) by hundreds of linguists, having obtained a rough phonological, morphological, and syntactical system, equivalent to what Jews had of Old Hebrew before reconstructing a system for its modern use in Israel. Instead of some inscriptions and oral transmitted tales for the language to be revived, we have a complete reconstructed grammatical system, as well as hundreds of living languages to be used as examples to revive a common Modern Indo-European. Some known philologists, university professors, experts in Classical Languages, still consider the Proto-Indo-European language reconstruction an “invention”; also, Spanish Indo-Europeanist Bernabé, a brilliant Spanish IE professor, has left its work on IE studies to dedicate himself to “something more serious”. Francisco Villar, professor of Greek and Latin at the University of Salamanca, deems a complete reconstruction of PIE “impossible”; his opinion is not rare, since he supports the glottalic theory and the Armenian Homeland hypothesis (against the view of the majority), and supports the use of Latin instead of English within the EU. The work of Elst, Talageri and others defending the ‘Indigenous Indo-Aryan’ viewpoint by N. Kazanas, and their support of an unreconstructible and hypothetical PIE nearest to Vedic Sanskrit opens still more the gap between the mainstream reconstruction and minority views supported by political or personal opinions. Also, among convinced Indo-Europeanists, there seems to be no possible consensus between the different ‘schools’ as to whether Common PIE

distinguished between ŏ and ă (as Gk., Lat. or Cel.) or if those vowels were all initial ă, as in the other attested dialects (Villar), or if the Preterites were only one tense (as Latin praeteritum) with different formations, or if there were actually an Aorist and a Perfect. Furthermore, José Antonio Pascual, a member of the Royal Spanish Academy (RAE), considers that “it is not necessary to be a great sociologist to know that 500 million people won’t agree to adopt Modern Indo-European in the EU” (Spa. journal El Mundo, 8th April 2007). Of course not, as they won’t agree on any possible question – not even on using English, which we use in fact –, and still the national and EU’s Institutions keep working, adopting decisions by majorities, not awaiting consensus for any question. And it was probably not necessary to be a great sociologist a hundred years ago to see e.g. that the revival of Hebrew under a modern language system was a utopia (an “impossible”, “unserious” “invention” then), and that Esperanto, the ‘easy’ and ‘neutral’ IAL, was going to succeed by their first so-called ‘World Congress’ in 1905. Such learned opinions are only that, opinions, just as if Hebrew and Semitic experts had been questioned a hundred years ago about a possible revival of Biblical Hebrew in a hypothetic new Land of Israel. Whether MIE’s success is more or less probable and why is not really important for our current work, but hypotheses dealt with by sociology, anthropology, political science, economics, psychology, etc. or usually just by personal opinions with no strict rational and reasonable basis. It remains unclear whether the project will be accepted by the different existing social movements, such as Pan-Latinism, Pan-Americanism, PanSanskritism, Pan-Arabism, Pan-Iranism, Pan-Slavism, Pan-Hispanism, Francophonie, Anglospherism, Atlanticism, and the hundred different pan-nationalist ideas, as well as the different groups supporting anti-globalization, anti-capitalism, anti-communism, etc. What we do know now is that the idea of reviving Europe’s Indo-European as a modern language for Europe and international organizations is rational, that it is not something new, that it doesn’t mean a revolution – as the use of Spanglish, Syndarin or Interlingua – nor an involution – as regionalism, nationalism, or the come back to French, German or Latin predominance –, but merely one of the many different ways in which the European Union linguistic policy could evolve, and maybe one way to unite different peoples from different cultures, languages and religions (from the Americas to East Asia) for the sake of stable means of communication. Just that tiny possibility is enough for us

to “lose” some years trying to give our best making the main Proto-Indo-European dialects as usable and as known as possible.

PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION According to Dutch sociologist Abram de Swaan, every language in the world fits into one of four categories according to the ways it enters into (what he calls) the global language system. •

Central: About a hundred languages in the world belong here, widely used and comprising about 95% of humankind.

•

Supercentral: Each of these serves to connect speakers of central languages. There are only twelve supercentral languages, and they are Arabic, Chinese, English, French, German, Hindi, Japanese, Malay, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Swahili.

•

Hypercentral: The lone hypercentral language at present is English. It not only connects central languages (which is why it is on the previous level) but serves to connect supercentral languages as well. Both Spanish and Russian are supercentral languages used by speakers of many languages, but when a Spaniard and a Russian want to communicate, they will usually do it in English.

•

Peripheral: All the thousands of other languages on the globe occupy a peripheral position because they are hardly or not at all used to connect any other languages. In other words, they are mostly not perceived as useful in a multilingual situation and therefore not worth anyone’s effort to learn.

De Swaan points out that the admission of new member states to the European Union brings with it the addition of more languages, making the polyglot identity of the EU ever more unwieldy and expensive. On the other hand, it is clearly politically impossible to settle on a single language for all the EU’s institutions. It has proved easier for the EU to agree on a common currency than a common language. Of the EU’s current languages, at least 14 are what we might call a ‘robust’ language, whose speakers are hardly likely to surrender its rights. Five of them (English, French, German, Portuguese and Spanish) are supercentral languages that are already widely used in international communication, and the rest are all central.

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

In the ongoing activity of the EU’s institutions, there are inevitably shortcuts taken English, French and German are widely used as ‘working languages’ for informal discussions. But at the formal level all the EU’s official languages (i.e. the language of each member state) are declared equal. Using all these languages is very expensive and highly inefficient. There are now 23 official languages: Bulgarian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Irish Gaelic, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovak, Slovene, Spanish and Swedish, and three semiofficial (?): Catalan, Basque and Galician. This means that all official documents must be translated into all the members’ recognized languages, and representatives of each member state have a right to expect a speech in their language to be interpreted. And each member state has the right to hear ongoing proceedings interpreted into its own language. Since each of the twenty one languages needs to be interpreted/translated into all the rest of the twenty, 23 x 22 (minus one, because a language doesn’t need to be translated into itself) comes to a total of 506 combinations (not taking on accound the ‘semiofficial’ languages). So interpreters/translators have to be found for ALL combinations. In the old Common Market days the costs of using the official languages Dutch, English, French, and German could be borne, and interpreters and translators could be readily found. But as each new member is admitted, the costs and practical difficulties are rapidly becoming intolerably burdensome. The crucial point here is that each time a new language is added, the total number of combinations isn’t additive but multiplies: 506 + one language is not 507 but 552, i.e. 24 x 23, since every language has to be translated/interpreted into all the others (except itself).

It is not hard to see that the celebration of linguistic diversity in the EU only lightly disguises the logistical nightmare that is developing. The EU is now preparing for more languages to come: Icelandic and Norwegian might be added in the future, with the incorporation of these two countries to the EU, as well as Albanian, Macedonian, Serbian, Bosnian and Croatian (the three formerly known as Serbo-Croatian, but further differentiated after the Yugoslavian wars) if they are admitted to the EU as expected; and many other regional languages, following the example of Irish Gaelic, and the three semiofficial Spanish languages: Alsatian, Breton, Corsican, Welsh, Luxemburgish and Sami Indo-European Language Association

are likely candidates to follow, as well as Scottish Gaelic, Occitan, Low Saxon, Venetian, Piedmontese, Ligurian, Emilian, Sardinian, Neapolitan, Sicilian, Asturian, Aragonese, Frisian, Kashubian, Romany, Rusin, and many others, depending on the political pressure their speakers and cultural communities can put on EU institutions. It will probably not be long before Turkish, and with it Kurdish (and possibly Armenian, Aramaic and Georgian), or maybe Ukrainian, Russian and Belarusian, are other official languages, not to talk about the eternal candidates’ languages, Norwegian (in at least two of its language systems, Bokmål and Nynorsk), Icelandic, Romansh, Monegasque (Monaco) and Emilian-Romagnolo (San Marino), and this could bring the number of EU languages over 40. The number of possible combinations are at best above 1000, which doesn’t seem within the reach of any organization, no matter how well-meaning. Many EU administrators feel that to a great extent this diversity can be canceled out by ever-increasing reliance on the computer translation that is already in heavy use. It is certainly true that if we couldn’t count on computers to do a lot of the translation ‘heavy lifting’, even the most idealistic administrator would never even dream of saddling an organization with an enterprise that would quickly absorb a major part of its finances and energy. But no machine has yet been invented or probably ever will be that is able to produce a translation without, at the very least, a final editing by a human translator or interpreter. The rapidly increasing profusion of languages in the EU is quickly becoming intolerably clumsy and prohibitively expensive. And this doesn’t even count the additional expense caused by printing in the Greek alphabet and soon in the Cyrillic (Bulgarian and Serbian). Everyone agrees that all languages must have their ‘place in the sun’ and their diversity celebrated. But common sense suggests that the EU is going to be forced to settle on a very small number of working languages, perhaps only one, and the linguistic future of the EU has become the subject of intense debate. Only in public numbers, the EU official translation/interpretation costs amount to more than 1230 M€, and it comes to more than 13% of today’s administrative expenditure of the EU institutions. There are also indirect costs of linguistic programmes aimed at promoting the learning of three or more languages since the Year of Languages (2001), which also means hundreds of millions of Euros, which haven’t been counted in

the EU’s budget as linguistic expenditure, but are usually included in budget sections such as Cohesion or Citizenship. It is hard to imagine the huge amount of money (real or potential) lost by EU citizens and companies each day because of communication problems, not only because they can’t speak a third party’s language, but because they won’t speak it, even if they can. Preserving the strict equality is the EU’s lifeblood, and it is a very disturbing thought that the strongest candidate for a one-language EU is the one with an established dominance in the world, English, which is actually only spoken by a minority within Europe. Latin and Artificial languages (as Esperanto, Ido or Interlingua) have been proposed as alternatives, but neither the first, because it is only related to romance languages, nor the second, because they are (too) artificial (invented by one person or a small group at best), solve the linguistic theoretical problems, not to talk about the practical ones. The Indo-European language that we present in this work, on the contrary, faces not only the addressed theoretical problems - mainly related to cultural heritage and sociopolitical proud - but brings also a practical solution for the European Union, without which there can be no real integration. European nations are not prepared to give up some of their powers to a greater political entity, unless they don’t have to give up some fundamental rights. Among them, the linguistic ones have proven harder to deal with than it initially expected, as they are raise very strong national or regional feelings. Indo-European is already the grandmother of the majority of Europeans. The first language of more than 97% of EU citizens is Indo-European, and the rest can generally speak at least one of them as second language. Adopting Indo-European as the main official language for the EU will not mean giving up linguistic rights, but enhancing them, as every other official language will have then the same status under their common ancestor; it won’t mean losing the own culture for the sake of unity, but recovering it altogether for the same purpose; and, above all, it will not mean choosing a lingua franca to communicate with foreigners within an international organization, but accepting a National Language to communicate with other nationals within the same country.

WHAT’S NEW IN THIS EDITION This is A Grammar of Modern Indo-European, Second Edition, with Modern IndoEuropean Language Grammar in Version 4, still adjusting some important linguistic questions, and lots of minor mistakes, thanks to the contributions of experts and readers. NOTE. A version number (N) is given to full revisions of the grammar, and each minor correction published must be given a different number to be later identified, usually ranging from N.01 to N.99. This book includes a full correction of version 3, following Pre-Version 4, which means the correction was finished, and it its therefore 4.xx.

“Europe’s Indo-European” version 4 continues “Modern Indo-European” version 3 (first printed edition, since June 2007), and this in turn version 2, which began in March 2007, changing most features of the old “Europaio”/“Sindhueuropaiom” concept of version 1 (Europaio: A Brief Grammar of the European Language, 2005-2006). 1. Apart from the unified “Modern Indo-European”, based on Europe’s Indo-European (also residual or North-Western Indo-European, or Proto-European), this grammar makes reference to other coeval PIE early dialects, especially Proto-Greek, Proto-IndoIranian (or Proto-Aryan) and Common Anatolian. 2. One of the main changes of this version is the adoption of a writing system with a clear phonological distinction between i, u and their semivocalic allophones j, w. The artificial distinction of i/j and u/w in PIE roots and derivatives, hold in versions 1-3, was untenable in the long term, as it was a labile decision, open to future changes. With the traditional written differentiation we get a greater degree of stability. 3. Emphasis is on the old Latin-only alphabet, but attention is paid to Greek and Cyrillic writing systems. Stubs of possible Armenian, Arabo-Persian and Devanagari (Abugida) systems are also included. The objective is not to define them completely (as with the Latin alphabet), but merely to show other possible writing systems for Modern Indo-European, Modern Aryan, and Modern Hellenic languages. 4. The traditional distinction in writings of the controversial palatovelar phonemes has been extensively discussed and rejected. Whether satemization appeared already as a dialectal phonological trend in Late PIE, or were just similar individual dialectal innovations restricted to some phonetic environments (k- before some sounds, as with 15

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

Latin c- before -e and -i), is not important. Reasons for not including the palatovelars in MIE writing system are 1) that, although possible, their existence is not sufficiently proven (see Appendix II.2); 2) that their writing because of tradition or even ‘etymology’ is not justified, as this would mean a projective writing (i.e., like writing Lat. casa, but Lat. ĉentum, because the k-sound before -e and -i evolves differently in Romance). 5. The historically alternating Oblique cases Dative, Locative, Instrumental and Ablative, are shown on a declension-by-declension (and even pronoun-by-pronoun) basis, as Late PIE shows in some declensions a simpler reconstructible paradigm (for some more archaic, for others an innovation) while others show almost the same Late PIE pattern of four differentiated oblique case-endings. The 8 cases traditionally reconstructed are used – and its differentiation recommended – in MIE. 5. The so-called Augment in é-, attested almost only in Greek, Indo-Iranian and Armenian, is sometimes left due to tradition of Indo-European studies, although recent research has shown that it was neither obligatory, nor general in the earliest PIE dialects. It is believed today that it was just a prefix that had a great success in the southern dialects, just like per- (

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

CONVENTIONS USED IN THIS BOOK 1. Modern Indo-European (MIE), Eurōpājóm or European are used only to refer to the European language, i.e. to the modern language system based on the reconstructed North-West or Europe’s Indo-European (EIE), also Old European proto-language. 2. The roots of the reconstructed PIE language are basic morphemes carrying a lexical meaning. By addition of suffixes, they form stems, and by addition of desinences, these form grammatically inflected words (nouns or verbs). NOTE. PIE reconstructed roots are subject to ablaut, and except for a very few cases, such ultimate roots are fully characterized by its constituent consonants, while the vowel may alternate. PIE roots as a rule have a single syllabic core, and by ablaut may either be monosyllabic or unsyllabic. PIE roots may be of the following form (where K is a voiceless stop, G an unaspirated and Gh an aspirated stop, R a semivowel (r̥, l̥, m̥, n̥, w, j) and H a laryngeal (or s). According to Meillet, impossible PIE combinations are voiceless/aspirated (as in *teubh or *bheut), as well as voiced/voiceless (as in *ged or *deg).

*This combination appears e.g. in bheudh-, awake, and bheidh-, obey, believe.

A root has at least one consonant, for some at least two (e.g. PIH *h₁ek- vs. EIE ek-, “quick”,

which is the root for MIE adj. ōkús). Depending on the interpretation of laryngeals, some roots seem to have an inherent vowel a or o; as, EIE ar- (vs. PIH *h2ar-), fit, EIE ongw- (vs. PIH *h3engw-) “anoint”, EIE ak- (vs. PIH *h2ek-) “keen”. By “root extension”, a basic CeC (with C being any consonant) pattern may be extended to CeCC, and an s-mobile may extend it to s-CeC. The total number of consonant, sonant and laryngeal elements that appear in an ordinary syllable are three – i.e., as the triliteral Semitic pattern. Those which have less than three are called ‘Concave’ verbs (cf. PIH *Hes-, *Hei-, *gwem-); those extended are called ‘Convex’ verbs (cf. Lat. plangō, spargō, frangō, etc., which, apart from the extension in -g, contain a laryngeal); for more on this, vide infra on MIE Conjugations.

Indo-European Language Association

Preface

3. In this book PIE roots are usually written with laryngeals. Therefore, we only assume certainty in the non-laryngeal nature of early PIE dialects, from ca. 2500 BC on. Whether Late PIE lost them all sooner (ca. 3500 BC?) or later (ca. 2500 BC?), etymological roots which include laryngeals will often be labelled as PIH, or just as (general) PIE, while specific Late PIE vocabulary will be shown with an undetermined laryngeal output *ə. NOTE. Common PIE (or PIH) roots are reconstructed by most modern Indo-Europeanists with laryngeals; so e.g. different vowel outputs of early PIE dialects (like North-West IE or ProtoGreek) are explained through the phonological effects of old aspirated phonemes on adjacent vowels. See Appendix II.3 for more on this question. Some linguists still follow the old non-laryngeal PIE concept (see Walde-Pokorny’s lexica), while many only conceive a PIE with laryngeals. However, it is not logical to assume that, whereas in Proto-Anatolian laryngeals were lost or evolved, in Late PIE they were the same (*h1, *h2, *h3, or any other scheme) as in their common ancestor, Middle PIE. Therefore, some scholars have adapted the Late PIE reconstruction to a partially laryngeal or non-laryngeal language (see Adrados, Nikolayev, etc.), coeval with the partially laryngeal PAn, thus supposing a similar laryngeal loss in both Middle PIE dialects, usually implying a quicker loss in Late PIE, due to the conservation of laryngeals in Anatolian, and their complete disappearance in Late PIE dialects. Some still reconstruct for Late PIE an uncertain laryngeal (or vowel) *H or *ə, in some phonetic environments, otherwise difficult to explain, prior to its full loss in early PIE dialects.

4. Proto-Indo-European vowel apophony or Ablaut is indeed normal in MIE, but dialectal Ablaut must be corrected when loan-translated. Examples of these Lat. confessus (cf. Lat. fassus sum), from EIE bhā-; Lat. facilis/difficilis, from EIE dhē-; Lat. saliō/insiliō/insultō, etc. NOTE. Such Ablaut is linked to languages with musical accent, as Latin. In Italic, the tone was always on the first syllable; Latin reorganized this system, and after Roman grammarians’ “paenultima rule”, Classic Latin accent felt on the second to last syllable if long, on the third to last syllable, or antepaenultima, if short (hence Lat. pudícus but módicus), thus triggering off different inner vocalic timbres or Ablauts. Other Italic dialects, as Oscan or Umbrian, didn’t suffered such apophony; cf. Osc. anterstataí , Lat. interstitae; Umb. antakres, Lat. integris; Umb. procanurent, Lat. procinuerint, etc. Germanic also knew such tone variations. More on Latin phonotactic development at .

5. In Romance languages, Theme is used instead of Stem. Therefore, Theme Vowel and Thematic refer to the Stem endings, usually to the e/o endings. In the Indo-European 19

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

languages, Thematic roots are those roots that have a “theme vowel”; a vowel sound that is always present between the root of the word and the attached inflections. Athematic roots lack a theme vowel, and attach their inflections directly to the root itself. NOTE. The distinction between thematic and athematic roots is especially apparent in the Greek verb; they fall into two classes that are marked by quite different personal endings. Thematic verbs are also called -ω (-ô) verbs in Greek; athematic verbs are -μι (-mi) verbs, after the first person singular present tense ending that each of them uses. The entire conjugation seems to differ quite markedly between the two sets of verbs, but the differences are really the result of the thematic vowel reacting with the verb endings. In Greek, athematic verbs are a closed class of inherited forms from the parent IE language. Marked contrasts between thematic and athematic forms also appear in Lithuanian, Sanskrit, and Old Church Slavonic. In Latin, almost all verbs are thematic; a handful of surviving athematic forms exist, but they are considered irregular verbs. The thematic and athematic distinction also applies to nouns; many of the old IE languages distinguish between “vowel stems” and “consonant stems” in the declension of nouns. In Latin, the first, second, fourth, and fifth declensions are vowel stems characterized by a, o, u and e, respectively; the third declension contains both consonant stems and i stems, whose declensions came to closely resemble one another in Latin. Greek, Sanskrit, and other older IE languages also distinguish between vowel and consonant stems, as did Old English.

6. PIE *d+t, *t+t, *dh+t → MIE st; PIE *d+d, *t+d, *dh+d → MIE sd; PIE *d+dh, *t+dh, *dh+dh → MIE sdh; because of the common intermediate phases found in ProtoGreek, cf. Gk. st, sth (as pistis, oisqa), and Europe’s Indo-European, cf. Lat. est, “come”, and O.H.G. examples. For an earlier stage of this phonetic output, compare O.Ind. sehí<*sazdhi, ‘sit!’, and not *satthi (cf. O.Ind. dehí, Av. dazdi). NOTE. It has been proposed an old PIE TT→TsT (where T = dental stop), i.e. that the cluster of two dental stops had a dental fricative s inserted between them. It is based on some findings in Hittite, where cluster tst is spelled as z (pronounced as ts), as in PIH *h1ed-ti, “he eats” → *h1etsti → Hitt. ezzi. Confirmation from early intermediate and common (Late PIE) *-st- are found e.g. in O.Ind. mastis, “measure”, from *med-tis, or Av. -hasta-, from *sed-tós. This evolution was probably overshadowed by other Aryan developments, see Appendix II.

7. The Feminine Late PIE *-jə/-ī, old Abstract Collective PIH *-ih2, gives EIE -ja/-ī. While both were still interchangeable in the common North-West IE (as the different dialectal outputs show), we prefer to use the ending -ja for feminines, and -ī for neuters; as, smīghslī, thousand (neuter), but trja, three (fem.).

1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. THE INDO-EUROPEAN LANGUAGE FAMILY 1.1.1. The Indo-European languages are a family of several hundred modern languages

and

dialects,

including

most

of

major

languages

the of

Europe, as well as many in Asia.

Contemporary

languages in this family include English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese,

In dark, countries with a majority of Indo-European speakers; in light color, countries with IndoEuropean-speaking minorities.

Hindustani (i.e., Hindi and Urdu among other modern dialects), Persian and Russian. It is the largest family of languages in the world today, being spoken by approximately half the world’s population as mother tongue. Furthermore, the majority of the other half speaks at least one of them as second language. 1.1.2. Romans didn’t perceive similarities between Latin and Celtic dialects, but they found obvious correspondences with Greek. After Grammarian Sextus Pompeius Festus: Suppum antiqui dicebant, quem nunc supinum dicimus ex Graeco, videlicet pro adspiratione ponentes <s> litteram, ut idem ὕλας dicunt, et nos silvas; item ἕξ sex, et ἑπτά septem.

Such findings are not striking, though, as Rome was believed to have been originally funded by Trojan hero Aeneas and, consequently, Latin was derived from Old Greek. 1.1.3. Florentine merchant Filippo Sassetti travelled to the Indian subcontinent, and was among the first European observers to study the ancient Indian language, Sanskrit. Writing in 1585, he noted some word similarities between Sanskrit and Italian, e.g. deva/dio, “God”, sarpa/serpe, “snake”, sapta/sette, “seven”, ashta/otto, “eight”, nava/nove, “nine”. This observation is today credited to have foreshadowed the later discovery of the Indo-European language family.

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

1.1.4. The first proposal of the possibility of a common origin for some of these languages came from Dutch linguist and scholar Marcus Zuerius van Boxhorn in 1647. He discovered the similarities among Indo-European languages, and supposed the existence of a primitive common language which he called “Scythian”. He included in his hypothesis Dutch, Greek, Latin, Persian, and German, adding later Slavic, Celtic and Baltic languages. He excluded languages such as Hebrew from his hypothesis. However, the suggestions of van Boxhorn did not become widely known and did not stimulate further research. 1.1.5. On 1686, German linguist Andreas Jäger published De Lingua Vetustissima Europae, where he identified an remote language, possibly spreading from the Caucasus, from which Latin, Greek, Slavic, ‘Scythian’ (i.e. Persian) and Celtic (or ‘Celto-Germanic’) were derived, namely Scytho-Celtic. 1.1.6. The hypothesis re-appeared in 1786 when Sir William Jones first lectured on similarities between four of the oldest languages known in his time: Latin, Greek, Sanskrit and Persian: “The Sanskrit language, whatever be its antiquity, is of a wonderful structure; more perfect than the Greek, more copious than the Latin, and more exquisitely refined than either, yet bearing to both of them a stronger affinity, both in the roots of verbs and the forms of grammar, than could possibly have been produced by accident; so strong indeed, that no philologer could examine them all three, without believing them to have sprung from some common source, which, perhaps, no longer exists: there is a similar reason, though not quite so forcible, for supposing that both the Gothic and the Celtic, though blended with a very different idiom, had the same origin with the Sanskrit; and the old Persian might be added to the same family”

1.1.7. Danish Scholar Rasmus Rask was the first to point out the connection between Old Norwegian and Gothic on the one hand, and Lithuanian, Slavonic, Greek and Latin on the other. Systematic comparison of these and other old languages conducted by the young German linguist Franz Bopp supported the theory, and his Comparative Grammar, appearing between 1833 and 1852, counts as the starting-point of IndoEuropean studies as an academic discipline. NOTE. The term Indo-European itself now current in English literature, was coined in 1813 by the British scholar Sir Thomas Young, although at that time there was no consensus as to the naming of the recently discovered language family. Among the names suggested were indo-

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction germanique (C. Malte-Brun, 1810), Indoeuropean (Th. Young, 1813), japetisk (Rasmus C. Rask, 1815), indisch-teutsch (F. Schmitthenner, 1826), sanskritisch (Wilhelm von Humboldt, 1827), indokeltisch (A. F. Pott, 1840), arioeuropeo (G. I. Ascoli, 1854), Aryan (F. M. Müller, 1861), aryaque (H. Chavée, 1867), etc. In English, Indo-German was used by J. C. Prichard in 1826 although he preferred IndoEuropean. In French, use of indo-européen was established by A. Pictet (1836). In German literature, Indo-Europäisch was used by Franz Bopp since 1835, while the term Indo-Germanisch had already been introduced by Julius von Klapproth in 1823, intending to include the northernmost and the southernmost of the family’s branches, as it were as an abbreviation of the full listing of involved languages that had been common in earlier literature, opening the doors to ensuing fruitless discussions whether it should not be Indo-Celtic, or even Tocharo-Celtic.

1.1.8. There are certain common linguistic ancestors of modern IE languages, and some of them are well-attested dead languages (or language systems), such as Latin for modern Romance languages – French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Romanian or Catalan –, Sanskrit for some modern Indo-Aryan languages, or Greek for Modern Greek. Furthermore, there are some still older IE languages, from which these old formal languages were derived and later systematized. They are, following the above examples, Archaic or Old Latin, Archaic or Vedic Sanskrit and Archaic or Old Greek, attested in older compositions or inscriptions, or inferred through the study of oral traditions and even foreign texts, like the Indo-Aryan superstrate of the Mitanni. And there are also some old related dialects, which help us reconstruct protolanguages, such as Osco-Umbrian for an older Proto-Italic (and with Proto-Celtic, ProtoGermanic and Proto-Balto-Slavic for Europe’s Indo-European), Indo-Aryan dialects for Proto-Indo-Aryan (and with Proto-Iranian for Proto-Indo-Iranian) or Mycenaean for an older Proto-Greek. NOTE. Mallory and Adams (2006) argue, about (Late) Proto-Indo-European: “How real are our reconstructions? This question has divided linguists on philosophical grounds. o There are those who argue that we are not really engaged in ‘reconstructing’ a past language but rather creating abstract formulas that describe the systematic relationship between sounds in the daughter languages. o Others argue that our reconstructions are vague approximations of the proto-language; they can never be exact because the proto-language itself should have had different dialects (yet we reconstruct only single proto-forms) and our reconstructions are not set to any specific time.

25

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN o Finally, there are those who have expressed some statistical confidence in the method of reconstruction. Robert Hall, for example, claimed that when examining a test control case, reconstructing proto-Romance from the Romance languages (and obviously knowing beforehand what its ancestor, Latin, looked like), he could reconstruct the phonology at 95% confidence, and the grammar at 80%. Obviously, with the much greater time depth of Proto-Indo-European, we might well wonder how much our confidence is likely to decrease. Most historical linguists today would probably argue that [laryngeal PIE] reconstruction results in approximations. A time traveller, armed with this book and seeking to make him- or herself understood would probably engender frequent moments of puzzlement, not a little laughter, but occasional instances of lucidity”.

1.2. TRADITIONAL VIEWS 1.2.1. In the beginnings of the Indo-European or Indo-Germanic studies using the comparative grammar, the Indo-European proto-language was reconstructed as a unitary language. For Rask, Bopp and other Indo-European scholars, it was a search for the Indo-European. Such a language was supposedly spoken in a certain region between Europe and Asia and at one point in time – between ten thousand and four thousand years ago, depending on the individual theories –, and it spread thereafter and evolved into different languages which in turn had different dialects. 1.2.2. The Stammbaumtheorie or Genealogical Tree Theory states that languages

split

up

in

other

languages, each of them in turn split up in others, and so on, like the branches of a tree. For example, a well known old theory about IndoEuropean is that, from the PIE language,

two

groups

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction

dialects known as Centum and Satem separated – so called because of their pronunciation of PIE *kmt̥ óm, “hundred”, in Latin and Avestan. From these groups

others split up, as Centum Proto-Germanic, Proto-Italic or Proto-Celtic, and Satem Proto-Balto-Slavic, Proto-Indo-Iranian.

NOTE. The Centum and Satem isogloss is one of the oldest known phonological differences of IE languages, and is still used by many to classify them in two main dialectal groups – postulating the existence of proto-Centum and a proto-Satem –, disregarding their relevant morphological and syntactical differences. The isogloss is based on a simple vocabulary comparison; as, from PIE *km̥tóm (possibly earlier *dkm̥tóm, from *dekm̥, “ten”), Satem: O.Ind. śatám, Av. satəm, Lith. šimtas, O.C.S. sto, or Centum: Gk. ἑκατόν, Lat. centum, Goth. hund, O.Ir. cet, etc.

It remains the most used model for understanding the Indo-European language reconstruction, since it was proposed by A. Schleicher (Compendium, 1866). The problem with its simplicity is that “the branching of the different groups is portrayed as a series of clean breaks with no connection between branches after they have split, as if each dialectal group marched away from the rest. Such sharp splits are possible, but assuming that all splits within Proto-Indo-European were like this is not very plausible, and any linguist surveying the current Indo-European languages would note dialectal variations running through some but not all areas, often linking adjacent groups who may belong to different languages” (Mallory & Adams, 2006). 1.2.3. The Wellentheorie or Waves Theory, of J. Schmidt, states that one

innovations, the way water waves spread when a stone hits the water surface. The lines that define the extension of the innovations are called isoglosses. The convergence of

common territory signals the existence of a new language or dialect. Where isoglosses from different languages coincide, transition zones are formed.

27

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. These old models for our understanding of language reconstructions are based on the hypothesis that there was one common and static Proto-Indo-European language, and that all features of modern Indo-European languages can be explained in such unitary schemes, by classifying them either as innovations or as archaisms of one old, rigid proto-language. After Mallory and Adams (The Oxford Introduction to Proto-Indo-European and the Proto-IndoEuropean World, 2006), “their criteria of inclusion, why we are looking at any particular one, and not another one, are no more solid than those that define family trees. The key element here is what linguistic features actually help determine for us whether two languages are more related or less related to one another. A decision in this area can be extraordinary difficult because we must be able to distinguish between features that may have been present throughout the entire IndoEuropean world (Indoeuropeia has been employed to describe this concept) and have dropped out in some but not others against those features that are innovations in only some of the different groups. The historical linguist is principally looking for shared innovations, i.e. are there traces of corresponding developments between two or more language groups that would indicate that they shared a common line of development different from other language groups? Only by finding shared innovations can one feel confident that the grouping of individual Indo-European linguistic groups into larger units or branches of the tree is real”.

1.2.4. Because of the difficulties found in the modelling of Proto-Indo-European branches and daughter languages into the traditional, unitary ‘Diverging Tree’ framework, i.e. a uniform Proto-Indo-European language with its branches, a new model called ‘Converging Association of Languages’ was proposed, in which languages that are in contact (not necessarily related to each other) exchange linguistic elements and rules, thus developing and acquiring from each other. Most linguists have rejected it as an implausible explanation of the irregularities found in the old, static concept of PIE. NOTE. Among the prominent advocates is N.S. Trubetzkoy (Urheimat, 1939): “The term ‘language family’ does not presuppose the common descent of a quantity of languages from a single original language. We consider a ‘language family’ a group of languages, in which a considerable quantity of lexical and morphological elements exhibit regular equivalences (…) it is not necessary for one to suppose common descent, since such regularity may also originate through borrowings between neighboring unrelated languages (…) It is just as conceivable that the ancestors of the Indo-European language branches were originally different from each other, but though constant contact, mutual influence, and borrowings, approached each other, without however ever becoming identical to one another” (Meier-Brügger, 2003).

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction Agreeing with Neumann (1996), Meier-Brügger (2003) states that “that the various IndoEuropean languages have developed from a prior unified language is certain. Questionable is, however, the concrete ‘how’ of this process of differentiation”, and that this

“thesis of a

‘converging association of languages’ may immediately be dismissed, given that all Indo-European languages are based upon the same Proto-Indo-European flexion morphology. As H. Rix makes clear, it is precisely this morphological congruence that speaks against the language association model, and for the diverging tree model”, even if the traditional language tree models were unable to explain the newest findings.

1.3. THE THEORY OF THE THREE STAGES 1.3.1. Even some of the first Indo-Europeanists had noted in their works the possibility of older origins for the reconstructed (Late) Proto-Indo-European, although they didn’t dare to describe those possible older stages of the language. NOTE. The development of this theory of three linguistic

stages

can

be

traced back to the very origins of Indo-European studies, firstly as a diffused idea of a non-static PIE language, and later widely accepted

as

a

dynamic

dialectal evolution, already in the 20th century, after the decipherment of the Anatolian

linguists accept that Proto-Indo-European must be the product of a long historical development. On this question, H. Rix (Modussystem, 1986) asserts “Whereby comparative reconstruction is based upon a group of similar forms in a number of languages, internal reconstruction takes its point of departure from irregularities or inhomogeneities of the system of a single language (…) The fundamental supposition of language-internal reconstruction is that such an irregularity or inhomogeneity in the grammar of a language is the result of a diachronic process, in which an older pattern,, or homogeneity is eclipsed, but not fully suppressed”. According to Meier-Brügger (2003), “Rix works back from Late Proto-Indo-European Phase B (reconstructible Proto-IndoEuropean) using deducible information about an Early Proto-Indo-European Phase A, and gathers

1.3.2. Today, a widespread Three-Stage Theory divide PIE (internal) language evolution into three main historic layers or stages, including a description of branches and languages as clean breaks from a common source (e.g. PAn from IE II) or from intermediate dialect continua (e.g. Germanic and Balto-Slavic from EIE), or classifying similarities into continued linguistic contact (e.g. Italic and Celtic, or Balto-Slavic and Indo-Iranian): 1) Early PIE (also IE I, for some Pre-Proto-Indo-European) is the hypothetical ancestor of Middle PIE, and probably the oldest stage of the language that comparative grammar could help reconstruct using internal reconstruction. There is, however, no common position as to how it was like or when and where it was spoken. 2) The second stage corresponds to a time before the separation of Proto-Anatolian from the common linguistic community where it should have coexisted (as a PreAnatolian dialect) with Pre-IE III. That stage of the language is called Middle PIE or IE II, also Indo-Hittite, identified with early Kurgan cultures in the Kurgan Hypothesis. NOTE. On the place of Anatolian among IE languages, the question is whether it separated first as a language branch from PIE, and to what extent was it thus spared developments common to the remaining (Late) Proto-Indo-European language group. There is growing consensus in favor of its early split from Indo-European (Heading, among others, ‘Indo-Hittite’); see N. Oettinger ‘IndoHittite’ – Hypothesen und Wortbildung (1986), A. Lehrman Indo-Hittite Revisited (1996), H. Craig Melchert The Dialectal Position of Anatolian within IE in IE Subgrouping (1998), etc. For Kortlandt (1989): “Since the beginnings of the Yamnaya, Globular Amphora, Corded Ware, and Afanasievo cultures can all be dated between 3600 and 3000 BC, I am inclined to date ProtoIndo-European to the middle of the fourth millennium, and to recognize Proto-Indo-Hittite as a language which may have been spoken a millennium earlier”.

3) The common immediate ancestor of most of the earliest known IE proto-languages – more or less the same static PIE searched for since the start of Indo-European studies, before Hittite was deciphered – is usually called Late PIE, also IE III, often simply Proto-Indo-European, often dated some time ca. 3500-3000 BC using linguistic or archaeological models, or both. Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction NOTE. According to Mallory & Adams (2006), “Generally, we find some form of triangulation based on the earliest attested Indo-European languages, i.e. Hittite, Mycenaean Greek, and Indo-Aryan, each of these positioned somewhere between c. 2000 and 1500 BC. Given the kind of changes

and Sanskrit and reconstructed Proto-Indo-European. The order of magnitude for these estimates (or guesstimates) tends to be something on the order of 1,500-2,000 years. In other words, employing some form of gut intuition (based on experience which is often grounded on the known separation of the Romance or Germanic languages), linguists tend to put Proto-Indo-European sometime around 3000 BC plus or minus a millennium (…) the earliest we are going to be able to set Proto-Indo-European is about the fifth millennium BC if we want it to reflect the archaeological reality of Eurasia. We have already seen that individual Indo-European groups are attested by c. 2000 BC. One might then place a notional date of c. 4500-2500 BC on Proto-IndoEuropean. The linguist will note that the presumed dates for the existence of Proto-Indo-European arrived at by this method are congruent with those established by linguists’ ‘informed estimation’. The two dating techniques, linguistic and archeological, are at least independent and congruent with one another”. Likewise, Meier-Brügger (2003) thinks that “No precise statement concerning the exact time period of the Proto-Indo-European linguistic community is possible. One may only state that the ancient Indo-European languages that we know, which date from the 2nd millennium BC, already exhibit characteristics of their respective linguistic groups in their earliest occurrences, thus allowing one to presume the existence of a separate and long pre-history (…) The period of 50003000 BC is suggested as a possible timeframe of a [common] Proto-Indo-European language”. However, on the early historic and prehistoric finds, B. Hänsel (1994) states that “Linguistic development may be described in steps that, although logically comprehensible, are not precisely

31

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN analyzable without a timescale. The archaeologist pursues certain areas of cultural development, the logic of which (if one exists) remains a mystery to him, or is only accessible in a few aspects of its complex causality”. On the other hand, he is provided with concrete ideas with regard to time, as vague as these may be, and works with a concept of culture that the Indo-European linguist cannot attain. For the archaeologist, culture is understood in the sense of a sociological definition (…) The archaeological concept of culture is composed of so many components, that by its very nature its contours must remain blurred. But languages are quite different. Of course there are connections; no one can imagine cultural connections without any possibility of verbal communication. But it is too much to ask that archaeologists equate their concept of culture, which is open and incorporates references on various levels, to the single dimension of linguistic community. Archaeology and linguistics are so fundamentally different that, while points of agreement may be expected, parallels and congruency may not. The advantage of linguistic research is its ability to precisely distinguish between individual languages and the regularity of developments. The strength of archaeology is its precision in developing timelines. What one can do, the other cannot. They could complement each other beautifully, if only there were enough commonality.

1.3.3. Another division has to be made, so that the dialectal evolution and this revival project is properly understood. Late PIE had at least two main inner dialectal branches, the Southern (or IE IIIa) and the Northern (or IE IIIb) ones. As far as we know, while speakers of Southern or Graeco-Aryan dialects (like Pre-Greek and Pre-Indo-Iranian Indo-European) spread in different directions with the first Late PIE migrations ca. 3000-2500 BC, speakers of Northern dialects remained still in close contact for centuries in Europe, but for those (like Pre-Tocharian IE speakers) who migrated to Asia. NOTE. “Within the group of IE languages, some individual languages are more closely associated with one another owing to morphological or lexical similarities. The cause for this, as a rule, is a prehistoric geographic proximity (perhaps even constituting single linguistic community) or a common preliminary linguistic phase, a middle mother-language phase, which would however then be posterior to the period of the [common PIE] mother language” (Meier-Brügger, 2003). About Tocharian, Adrados (1998) says “even if archaic in some respects (its Centum character, subjunctive, etc.) it has shares common features with Balto-Slavic, among other languages: they must be old isoglosses, shared before it separated and migrated to the East. It is, therefore, an IE III B [=Northern] language. It shows great innovations, too, something normal in a language that evolved isolated”.

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction On the Southern (Graeco-Aryan or Indo-Greek) PIE dialect, see Gamkrelidze, Ivanov (1995) IndoEuropean and the Indo-Europeans, and Clackson (1994) The Linguistic Relationship Between Armenian and Greek, Adrados (1998), etc. Even in Mallory & Adams (2006): “Many have argued that Greek, Armenian, and Indo-Iranian share a number of innovations that suggest that there should have been some form of linguistic continuum between their predecessors”; “An Irish-Indic cognate looks a damn sight stronger than a Greek-Iranian and linguists have long noted that there are a whole series of words that seem to be confined largely to Greek and Indo-Iranian”.

1.3.4. The so-called North-West, Residual, or Europe’s Indo-European language, also Old European or Proto-European, linguistic ancestor of Celtic, Italic, Germanic, BaltoSlavic and other (fragmentary or unattested) European dialects, is believed to have formed the last common IE dialect continuum in Northern Europe during the centuries on either side of 2500 BC. It was therefore a language coeval with Common Anatolian, Proto-Indo-Iranian and Proto-Greek, able to fill in the time gap between the dates estimated for North-West IE proto-languages and the Central and Eastern ones. NOTE 1. On the so-called “Nort-West Indo-European” language or dialect continuum, see N. Oettinger Grundsätzliche überlegungen zum Nordwest-Indogermanischen (1997), and Zum nordwestindogermanischen Lexikon (1999); M. E. Huld Indo-Europeanization of Northern Europe (1996); Adrados, Bernabé, Mendoza, Manual de Lingüística Indoeuropea (1998); etc. Furthermore, regarding modern IE studies, even without accepting a common, independent North-West IE language, “There are so many of these words that are confined within these five language groups (Celtic, Italic, Germanic, Baltic, and Slavic) that most linguists would regard

33

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN cognates found exclusively between any two or among all of these groups as specifically NorthWest Indo-European and not demonstrably Proto-Indo-European. To accept a series of cognates as reflections of a PIE word requires that the evidence come from further afield than a series of contiguous language groups in Europe”, Mallory & Adams (2006). NOTE 2. About the ‘Dark Ages’, the time gap between the reconstructed North-West IndoEuropean proto-languages (dated ca. 1500 BC) and the other IE proto-languages reconstructed (dated ca. 2500 BC), Mallory & Adams (2006): “If one reviews discussion of the dates by which the various Indo-European groups first emerged, we find an interesting and somewhat disturbing phenomenon. By c. 2000 BC we have traces of Anatolian, and hence linguists are willing to place the emergence of Proto-Anatolian to c. 2500 BC or considerably earlier. We have already differentiated Indo-Aryan in the Mitanni treaty by c.1500 BC so undifferentiated Proto-IndoIranian must be earlier, and dates on the order of 2500-2000 BC are often suggested. Mycenaean Greek, the language of the Linear B tablets, is known by c.1300 BC if not somewhat earlier and is different enough from its Bronze Age contemporaries (Indo-Iranian or Anatolian) and from reconstructed PIE to predispose a linguist to place a date of c. 2000 BC or earlier for Proto-Greek itself. So where we have written documentation from the Bronze Age, we tend to assign the protolanguages to an earlier period of the Bronze Age, i.e. earlier than at least 2000 BC if not 2500 BC. When we turn to western and northern Europe, however, both our attestation of the different groups and the estimates of their proto-languages tend to be shallower. The Germanic languages, for example, are all derived from Proto-Germanic. Now the earliest runic inscriptions are so close to reconstructed Proto-Germanic that there is a tendency to date the Germanic proto-language to about 500 BC. Similarly, if we examine the earliest Celtic inscriptional evidence, be it Continental or even the much more recent Irish ogam stones, these inscriptions are not that far removed from the reconstructed Proto-Celtic and again we tend to have dates suggested on the order of 1000 BC. The Slavic languages only began differentiating from one another during the historical period, and Proto-Slavic is generally set to about the beginning of the Christian era while Proto-Baltic and Proto-Balto-Slavic (assuming its existence) are probably envisaged as a second millennium BC phenomenon. In short, where the Indo-European groups are more recently attested, we tend to find that they are also regarded as having differentiated at a more recent time, i.e. between c.1500 and 500 BC. One explanation for the relatively short time depths of the attested northern and western Indo-European groups is that these groups are the only survivors of a long process of linguistic assimilation that has occurred as small demographic and linguistic groups moved, interacted, and merged. We can see precisely such a process in action in the historic period as Latin assimilated and replaced all the other Italic languages, Umbrian, Oscan, etc., and then went on to assimilate and replace much of the Celtic languages. Also within the historic period Slavic

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction assimilated and replaced such other Indo-European languages as Thracian, and Koine Greek replaced nearly all other varieties of Greek. If we had only contemporary data to work with, we would have to conclude that both Proto-Italic (now equivalent to Proto-Romance) and ProtoGreek flourished around the beginning of the Christian era. These ‘extinction events’ in the history of Italic and Greek had the effect of ‘resetting’ the time depth of the proto-language. This process must have been repeated time and again in the prehistoric period”. Similarly, Kortlandt (1989) detected what “seems to be a general tendency to date protolanguages farther back in time than is warranted by the linguistic evidence. When we reconstruct Proto-Romance, we arrive at a linguistic stage which is approximately two centuries later than the language of Caesar and Cicero (cf. Agard 1984: 47-60 for the phonological differences). When we start from the extralinguistic evidence and identify the origins of Romance with the beginnings of Rome, we arrive at the eighth century BC, which is almost a millennium too early. The point is that we must identify the formation of Romance with the imperfect learning of Latin by a large number of people during the expansion of the Roman empire”.

IE dialects ca. 500 BC.

1.3.4. Apart from the shared phonology and vocabulary, Europe’s Indo-European shows other common features, as a trend to reduce the noun inflection system, shared innovations in the verbal system, the -r endings of the middle or middle-passive voice, etc. The southern dialects, which spread in different directions and evolved without forming a continuum, show therefore a differentiated phonology and even vocabulary, but common developments like the augment in é-, etc.

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

NOTE. Some European dialects like Balto-Slavic and, to some extent, Italic (or Latin, if differentiated from Osco-Umbrian), either because of general PIE innovative or archaic trends that only they maintained, or because of their original situation within the prehistoric dialectal territories in relation with the origin of innovations – or just because they remained in contact with Southern Indo-European dialects after the first PIE split (e.g. through the Scythian or general Iranian expansions) – show features usually identified with Indo-Iranian, as an 8-case noun declension and phonetic satemization, while having morphological features clearly common to Germanic and Celtic dialects, like their verbal system. Images show IE languages ca. 500 AD (top) and 1500 AD (under these lines).

The search for the Urheimat or ‘Homeland’ of the prehistoric Proto-IndoEuropeans has developed as an archaeological quest along with the linguistic research looking for the reconstruction of the proto-language. NOTE. According to A. Scherer’s Die Urheimat der Indogermanen (1968), summing up the views of various authors from the years 1892-1963, still followed by mainstream Indo-European studies today, “Based upon the localization of later languages such as Greek, Anatolian, and IndoIranian, a swathe of land in southern Russia north of the Black Sea is often proposed as the native area of the speakers of Proto-Indo-European” (Meier-Brügger, 2003).

1.4.3. According to her hypothesis, PIE speakers were probably a nomadic tribe of the Pontic-Caspian steppe that expanded in successive stages of the Kurgan culture and three successive “waves” of expansion during the 3rd millennium BC: • Kurgan I, Dnieper/Volga region, earlier half of the 4th millennium BC. Apparently evolving from cultures of the Volga basin, subgroups include the Samara and Seroglazovo cultures. • Kurgan II–III, latter half of the 4th millennium BC. Includes the Sredny Stog culture and the Maykop culture of the northern Caucasus. Stone circles, early two-wheeled chariots, anthropomorphic stone stelae of deities. • Kurgan IV or Pit Grave culture, first half of the 3rd millennium BC, encompassing the entire steppe region from the Ural to Romania. 37

Wave 1, predating Kurgan I, expansion from the lower Volga to the Dnieper, leading to coexistence of Kurgan I and the Cucuteni culture. Repercussions of the migrations extend as far as the Balkans and along the Danube to the Vinča and Lengyel cultures in Hungary.

o

Wave 2, mid 4th millennium BC, originating in the Maykop culture and resulting in advances of “kurganized” hybrid cultures into northern Europe around 3000 BC – Globular Amphora culture, Baden culture, and ultimately Corded Ware culture.

o

Wave 3, 3000-2800 BC, expansion of the Pit Grave culture beyond the steppes; appearance of characteristic pit graves as far as the areas of modern Romania, Bulgaria and eastern Hungary.

Hypothetical Homeland or Urheimat of the first PIE speakers, from 4500 BC onwards. The Yamna (Pit Grave) culture lasted from ca. 3600 till 2200 BC. In this time the first wagons appeared. People were buried with their legs flexed, a position which remained typical for the Indo-Europeans for a long time. The burials were covered with a mound, a kurgan. During this period, from 3600 till 3000 IE II split up into Pre-IE III and Pre-Proto-Anatolian. From ca.3000 B.C on, Late PIE dialects began to differentiate and spread by 2500 westward (Europe’s Indo-European), southward (Proto-Greek) and eastward (Proto-Aryan, Pre-ProtoTocharian).

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction NOTE. On the Kurgan hypothesis, Mallory & Adams (2006) say that “[t]he opposite method to a retrospective approach is a prospective approach where one starts with a given archaeological phenomenon and tracks its expansion. This approach is largely driven by a theory connected with the mechanism by which the Indo-European languages must have expanded. Here the trajectory need not be the type of family tree that an archaeologist might draw up but rather some other major social phenomenon that can move between cultures. For example, in both the nineteenth century and then again in the later twentieth century, it was proposed that Indo-European expansions were associated with the spread of agriculture. The underlying assumption here is that only the expansion of a new more productive economy and attendant population expansion can explain the widespread expansion of a language family the size of the Indo-European. This theory is most closely associated with a model that derives the Indo-Europeans from Anatolia about the seventh millennium BC from whence they spread into south-eastern Europe and then across Europe in a Neolithic ‘wave of advance’. A later alternative mechanism is the spread of more pastoral societies who exploited the horse (and later the chariot) and carried a new language across Europe and Asia from the fourth millennium bc onwards. The underlying assumption here is that the vector of Indo-European language spread depended on a new, more aggressive social organization coupled with a more mobile economy and superior transportation technology. As this theory sets the homeland in the steppelands north of the Black and Caspian seas among different cultures that employed barrows for their burials (Russian kurgan), it is generally termed the Kurgan theory. Although the difference between the Wave of Advance and Kurgan theories is quite marked, they both share the same explanation for the expansion of the Indo-Iranians in Asia (and there are no fundamental differences

in

Moreover, there is recognition by supporters of the Neolithic theory that the ‘wave of advance’ did not reach the peripheries of Europe (central and western Mediterranean, Atlantic and northern Europe) but that these regions adopted agriculture from their neighbours rather than being replaced by them.

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

I. LINGUISTIC RECONSTRUCTION AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL TIMELINE The Manual de Lingüística Indoeuropea (Adrados, Bernabé, Mendoza, 1998) makes a summary of main linguistic facts, supported by archaeological finds: “Remember the recent date of the ‘cristalization’ of European languages. ‘Old European’ [=North-West Indo-European], from which they derive, is an already evolved language, with opposition masculine/feminine, and must be located in time ca. 2000 BC or before. Also, one must take into account the following data: the existence of Tocharian, related to IE IIIb [=Northern PIE], but far away to the East, in the Chinese Turkestan; the presence of IE IIIb [=Graeco-Aryan] languages to the South of the Carpathian Mountains, no doubt already in the 3rd millennium (the ancestors of Thracian, Iranian, Greek speakers); differentiation of Hittite and Luwian, within the Anatolian group, already ca. 2000 BC, in the documents of Kültepe, what means that Common Anatolian must be much older. NOTE. Without taking on account archaeological theories, linguistic data reveals that: a) IE IIIb, located in Europe and in the Chinese Turkestan, must come from an intermediate zone, with expansion into both directions. b) IE IIIa, which occupied the space between Greece and the Northwest of India, communicating both Paeninsulas through the languages of the Balkans, Ukraine and Northern Caucasus, the Turkestan and Iran, must also come from some intermediate location. Being a different linguistic group, it cannot come from Europe or the Russian Steppe, where Ural-Altaic languages existed. c) Both groups have been in contact secondarily, taking on account the different ‘recent’ isoglosses in the contact zone. d) The more archaic Anatolian must have been isolated from the more evolved IE; and that in some region with easy communication with Anatolia. (…) Only the Steppe North of the Caucasus, the Volga river and beyond can combine all possibilities mentioned: there are pathways that go down into Anatolia and Iran through the Caucasus, through the East of the Caspian Sea, the Gorgan plains, and they can migrate from there to the Chinese Turkestan, or to Europe, where two ways exist: to the North and to the South of the Carpathian mountains. NOTE. For Kortlandt (1989), too, “Starting from the linguistic evidence (…) The best candidate for the original IE homeland is the territory of the Sredny Stog culture in the eastern Ukraine”.

Diagram of the expansion and relationships of IE languages, Adrados (1979). These linguistic data, presented in a diagram, are supported by strong archaeological arguments: they have been defended by Gimbutas 1985 against Gamkrelidze-Ivanov (…) This diagram proposes three phases. In the first one, IE II [=Middle PIE] became isolated, and from it Anatolian emerged, being first relegated to the North of the Caucasus, and then crossing into the South: there must Common Anatolian be located. Note that there is no significant temporal difference with the other groups; it happens also that the first IE wave into Europe was older. It is somewhere to the North of the people that later went to Anatolia that happened the great revolution that developed IE III [=Late PIE], the ‘common language’. The following phases refer to that common language. The first is that one that saw both IE III B [=Northern IE] (to the North) and IE III A [=Southern IE] (to the South), the former being fragmented in two groups, one that headed West and one that migrated to the East. That is a proof that somewhere in the European Russia a common language III B emerged; to the South, in Ukraine or in the Turkestan, IE III A.

41

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN The second phase continues the movements of both branches, that launched waves to the South, but that were in contact in some moments, arising isoglosses that unite certain languages of the IE IIIa group (first Greek, later Iranian, etc.) with those of the rearguard of IE IIIb (especially Baltic and Slavic, also Italic and Germanic)”.

NOTE. The genetic record cannot yield any direct information as to the language spoken by these groups.

Spencer Wells suggests that the origin, distribution and age of the R1a1 haplotype points to an ancient migration, possibly corresponding to the spread by the Kurgan people in their expansion across the Eurasian steppe around 3000 BC, stating that “there is nothing to contradict this model, although the genetic patterns do not provide clear support either”. NOTE. R1a1 is most prevalent in Poland, Russia, and Ukraine, and is also observed in Pakistan, India and central Asia. R1a1 is largely confined east of the Vistula gene barrier and drops considerably to the west. The spread of Y-chromosome DNA haplogroup R1a1 has been associated with the spread of the Indo-European languages too. The mutations that characterize haplogroup R1a occurred ~10,000 years bp.

ca. 4500-4000 BC. Sredny Stog, Dnieper-Donets and Sarama cultures, domestication of the horse.

Early PIE spoken, probably somewhere in the Pontic-Caspian Steppe.

ca. 4000-3500 BC. The Yamna culture, the kurgan builders, emerges in the steppe, and the Maykop culture in northern Caucasus.

Middle PIE. Pre-IE III and Pre-Proto-Anatolian dialects evolve in different communities but presumably still in contact

ca. 3500-3000 BC. Yamna culture at its peak: stone idols, two-wheeled proto-chariots, animal husbandry, permanent settlements and hillforts, subsisting on agriculture and fishing, along rivers. Contact of the Yamna culture with late Neolithic Europe cultures results in kurganized Globular Amphora and Baden cultures. Maykop culture shows earliest evidence of the beginning Bronze Age; bronze weapons and artifacts introduced.

Proto-Anatolian becomes isolated south of the Caucasus, and has no more contacts with the linguistic innovations of the common Late PIE language.

ca. 3000-2500 BC. The Yamna culture extends over the entire Pontic steppe. The Corded Ware culture extends from the Rhine to the Volga, corresponding to the latest phase of IE unity. Different cultures disintegrate, still in loose contact, enabling the spread of technology.

Late PIE evolves into dialects, at least a Southern and a Northern one. Dialectal communities remain still in contact, enabling the spread of phonetic and morphological innovations, and loan words. PAn, spoken in Asia Minor, evolves into Common Anatolian.

ca. 2500-2000 BC. The Bronze Age reaches Central Europe with the Beaker culture of Northern Indo-Europeans. Indo-Iranians settle north of the Caspian in the Sintashta-Petrovka and later the Andronovo culture.

The breakup of the southern IE dialects is complete. Proto-Greek spoken in the Balkans; Proto-Indo-Iranian in Central Asia; North-West Indo-European in Northern Europe; Common Anatolian dialects in Anatolia.

ca. 2000-1500 BC. The chariot is invented, leading to the split and rapid spread of Iranians and other peoples from the Andronovo culture and the Bactria-Margiana Complex over much of Central Asia, Northern India, Iran and Eastern Anatolia. Greek Darg Ages and flourishing of the Hittite Empire. Pre-Celtic Unetice culture.

Indo-Iranian splits up in two main dialects, Indo-Aryan and Iranian. European protodialects like Germanic, Celtic, Italic, and BaltoSlavic differentiate from each other. Anatolian languages like Hittite and Luwian are written down; Indo-Iranian attested through Mitanni; a Greek dialect, Mycenaean, is already spoken.

ca. 1500-1000 BC. The Nordic Bronze Age sees the rise of the Germanic Urnfield and the Celtic Hallstatt cultures in Central Europe, introducing the Iron Age. Italic peoples move to the Italian Peninsula. Rigveda is composed. The Hittite Kingdoms and the Mycenaean civilization decline.

Germanic, Celtic, Italic, Baltic and Slavic are already different proto-languages, developing in turn different dialects. Iranian and other related southern dialects expand through military conquest, and Indo-Aryan spreads in the form of its sacred language, Sanskrit.

ca. 1000-500 BC. Northern Europe enters the PreRoman Iron Age. Early Indo-European Kingdoms and Empires in Eurasia. In Europe, Classical Antiquity begins with the flourishing of the Greek peoples. Foundation of Rome.

Celtic dialects spread over Western Europe, German dialects to the south of Jutland. Italic languages in the Italian Peninsula. Greek and Old Italic alphabets appear. Late Anatolian dialects. Cimmerian, Scythian and Sarmatian in Asia, Palaeo-Balkan languages in the Balkans.

It is actually not something new, but the come back to more traditional views, reinterpreting the new findings of the Hittite scripts, trying to insert Anatolian into the old, static PIE concept. 1.5.2. The most known new alternative theory concerning PIE is the Glottalic theory. It assumes that Proto-Indo-European was pronounced more or less like Armenian, i.e. instead of PIE *p, *b, *bh, the pronunciation would have been *p’, *p, *b, and the same with the other two voiceless-voiced-voiced aspirated series of consonants. The IE Urheimat would have been then located in the surroundings of Anatolia, especially near Lake Urmia, in northern Iran, hence the archaism of Anatolian dialects and the glottalics found in Armenian. NOTE. Those linguistic and archaeological findings are supported by Th. Gamkredlize-V. Ivanov (1990: “The early history of Indo-European languages”, Scientific American, where early IndoEuropean vocabulary deemed “of southern regions” is examined, and similarities with Semitic and Kartvelian languages are also brought to light. This theory has been criticized by Meid (1989)

1.5.3. Alternative theories include: I. The European Homeland thesis maintains that the common origin of the IE languages lies in Europe. These theses are more or less driven by Archeological. A. Häusler (1981, 1986, 1992) continues to defend the hypothesis that places IndoEuropean origins in Europe, stating that all the known differentiation emerged in the continuum from the Rhin to the Urals. NOTE. It has been traditionally located in 1) Lithuania and the surrounding areas, by R.G. Latham (1851) and Th. Poesche (1878: Die Arier. Ein Beitrag zur historischen Anthropologie, Jena); 2) Scandinavia, by K.Penka (1883: Origines ariacae, Viena); 3) Central Europe, by G. Kossinna (1902: “Die Indogermanische Frage archäologisch beantwortet”, Zeitschrift für Ethnologie, 34, pp. 161-222), P.Giles (1922: The Aryans, New York), and by linguist/archaeologist G. Childe (1926: The Aryans. A Study of Indo-European Origins, London).

a. The Old European or Alteuropäisch Theory compares some old European vocabulary (especially river names), which would be older than the spread of Late PIE dialects through Northern Europe. It points out the possibility of an older, pre-IE III

spread of IE, either of IE II or I or maybe some other Pre-IE dialect. It is usually related to the PCT and Renfrew’s NDT. b. The Paleolithic Continuity Theory posits that the advent of IE languages should be linked to the arrival of Homo sapiens in Europe and Asia from Africa in the Upper Paleolithic. The PCT proposes a continued presence of Pre-IE and non-IE peoples and languages in Europe from Paleolithic times and allowing for minor invasions and infiltrations of local scope, mainly during the last three millennia.

Also, the PCT could in turn be connected with Frederik

Kortlandt’s Indo-Uralic and Altaic studies – although they could also be inserted in Gimbutas’ early framework. On the temporal relationship question, Mallory & Adams (2006): “How early a solution is admitted depends on individual decisions regarding the temporally most diagnostic vocabulary. That the vocabulary is clearly one reflecting at least a Neolithic economy and technology, i.e. domesticated plants and animals, ceramics, means that it cannot be set anywhere on this planet prior to c. 8000 BC. Although there are still those who propose solutions dating back to the Palaeolithic, these cannot be reconciled with the cultural vocabulary of the Indo-European languages. The later vocabulary of Proto-Indo- European hinges on such items as wheeled vehicles, the plough, wool, which are attested in Proto-Indo-European, including Anatolian. It is unlikely then that words for these items entered the Proto-Indo-European lexicon prior to about 4000 BC. This is not necessarily a date for the expansion of Indo-European since the area of Proto-Indo-European speech could have already been in motion by then and new items with their words might still have passed through the continuum undetected, i.e. treated as inheritances rather than borrowings. All that can be concluded is that if one wishes to propose a homeland earlier than about 4000 bc, the harder it is to explain these items of vocabulary”.

c. The PCT is, in turn, related to the theories of a Neolithic revolution causing the peacefully spreading of an older pre-IE language into Europe from Asia Minor from around 7000 BC, with the advance of farming. It proposes that the dispersal (discontinuity) of Proto-Indo-Europeans originated in Neolithic Anatolia. NOTE. Reacting to criticism, Renfrew by 1999 revised his proposal to the effect of taking a pronounced Indo-Hittite position. Renfrew’s revised views place only Pre-Proto-Indo-European in 7th millennium BC Anatolia, proposing as the homeland of Proto-Indo-European proper the Balkans around 5000 BC, explicitly identified as the “Old European culture” proposed by Gimbutas.

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction As of 2005, Colin Renfrew seems to support the PCT designs and the usefulness of the Paleolithic assumptions. He co-authored a paper concluding: Our finding lends weight to a proposed Paleolithic ancestry for modern Europeans The above quotation coming as results of archaeogenetic research on mtDNA where 150 x greater N1a frequency was found. The first European farmers are descended from a European population who were present in Europe since the Paleolithic and not coming as a wave of Neolithic migration as proposed in Renfrew’s NDT. Talking about these new (old) theories, Adrados (1998) makes an interesting remark about the relevance that is – wrongly – given to each new personal archaeological ‘revolutionary’ theory: “[The hypothesis of Colin Renfrew (1987)] is based on ideas about the diffusion of agriculture from Asia to Europe in [the 5th millennium Neolithic Asia Minor], diffusion that would be united to that of Indo-Europeans; it doesn’t pay attention at all to linguistic data. The [hypothesis of Gamkrelidze-Ivanov (1980, etc.)], which places the Homeland in the contact zone between Caucasian and Semitic peoples, south of the Caucasus, is based on real or supposed lexical loans; it disregards morphological data altogether, too. Criticism of these ideas – to which people have paid too much attention – are found, among others, in Meid (1989), Villar (1991), etc.”.

II. Another hypothesis, contrary to the European ones, also mainly driven today by a nationalistic view, traces back the origin of PIE to Vedic Sanskrit, postulating that it is very pure, and that the origin of common Proto-Indo-European can thus be traced back to the Indus Valley Civilization of ca. 3000 BC. NOTE. Such Pan-Sanskritism was common among early Indo-Europeanists, as Schlegel, Young, A. Pictet (1877: Les origines indoeuropéens, Paris) or Schmidt (who preferred Babylonia), but are now mainly supported by those who consider Sanskrit almost equal to Late Proto-Indo-European. For more on this, see S. Misra (1992: The Aryan Problem: A Linguistic Approach, Delhi), Elst’s Update on the Aryan Invasion Debate (1999), followed up by S.G. Talageri’s The Rigveda: A Historical Analysis (2000), both part of “Indigenous Indo-Aryan” viewpoint by N. Kazanas, the “Out of India” theory, with a framework dating back to the times of the Indus Valley Civilization.

III. The Black Sea deluge theory dates the origin of the expansion of IE dialects in the genesis of the Sea of Azov, ca. 5600 BC, which would in turn be related to the deluge myth, which would have remained in oral tails until its description in the biblical story of Noah’s Ark, the Hindu Puranic story of Manu, through Deucalion in Greek mythology or Utnapishtim in the Epic of Gilgamesh. This date is generally considered as rather early for the PIE spread under frameworks which include the Urheimat near the Black Sea.

47

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. W.Ryan and W.Pitman published evidence that a massive flood through the Bosporus occurred about 5600 BC, when the rising Mediterranean spilled over a rocky sill at the Bosporus. The event flooded 155,000 km² of land and significantly expanded the Black Sea shoreline to the north and west. This has been connected with the fact that some Early Modern scholars based on Genesis 10:5 had assumed that the ‘Japhetite’ languages (instead of the ‘Semitic’ ones) are rather the direct descendants of the Adamic language, having separated before the confusion of tongues, by which also Hebrew was affected. That was claimed by Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich (18th c.), who stated in her private revelations that the purest descendants of the Adamic language were the main Proto-Indo-European dialects, v.i.

1.6. RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER LANGUAGES 1.6.1. Many higher-level relationships between PIE and other language families have been proposed. But these speculative connections are highly controversial. Perhaps the most widely accepted proposal is of an Indo-Uralic family, encompassing PIE and ProtoUralic, a language from which Hunarian, Finnish, Estonian, Saami and a number of other languages belong. The evidence usually cited in favor of this is the proximity of the proposed Urheimaten for both of them, the typological similarity between the two languages, and a number of apparent shared morphemes. NOTE. Other proposals, further back in time (and correspondingly less accepted), model PIE as a branch of Indo-Uralic with a Caucasian substratum; link PIE and Uralic with Altaic and certain other families in Asia, such as Korean, Japanese, Chukotko-Kamchatkan and Eskimo-Aleut (representative proposals are Nostratic and Joseph Greenberg’s Eurasiatic); etc.

1.6.2. Indo-Uralic or Uralo-Indo-European is therefore a hypothetical language family consisting of Indo-European and Uralic (i.e. Finno-Ugric and Samoyedic). Most linguists still consider this theory speculative and its evidence insufficient to conclusively prove genetic affiliation. NOTE. Dutch linguist Frederik Kortlandt supports a model of Indo-Uralic in which its speakers lived north of the Caspian Sea, and Proto-Indo-Europeans began as a group that branched off westward from there to come into geographic proximity with the Northwest Caucasian languages, absorbing a Northwest Caucasian lexical blending before moving farther westward to a region north of the Black Sea where their language settled into canonical Proto-Indo-European.

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction The problem with lexical evidence is to weed out words due to borrowing, because Uralic languages have been in contact with Indo-European languages for millennia, and consequently borrowed many words from them.

Languages of Europe. The black line divides the zones traditionally (or politically) considered inside the European subcontinent. Northern dialects are all but Greek and Kurdish (Iranian); Armenian is usually considered a Graeco-Aryan dialect, while Albanian is usually classified as a Northern one. Numbered inside the map, non-IndoEuropean languages: 1) Uralic languages; 2) Turkic languages; 3) Basque; 4) Maltese; 5) Caucasian languages.

SCHLEICHER’S FABLE: FROM PIE TO MODERN ENGLISH The so-called Schleicher's fable is a poem composed in PIE, published by August Schleicher in 1868, originally named “The Sheep and the Horses”. It is written here in the different reconstructible IE dialects for comparison. The immediate parent dialect of each proto-language is enclosed in parentheses.

1.7.1. NORTHERN INDO-EUROPEAN DIALECTS I. NORTH-WEST OR EUROPE’S INDO-EUROPEAN The North-West Indo-European dialect continuum, also Europe’s Indo-European, was spoken in the European Subcontinent in the centuries on either side of 2500 BC, evolving into the Pre-Celtic, Pre-Italic, Pre-Latin (probably within Pre-Italic), PreGermanic, Pre-Baltic, Pre-Slavic (or Pre-Balto-Slavic) IE dialects, among others. Its original common location is usually traced back to some place to the East of the Rhine, to the North of the Alps and the Carpathian Mountains, to the South of Scandinavia and to the East of the Eastern European Lowlands or Russian Plain, not beyond Moscow. The Corded Ware complex of

NOTE. According to Adrados (1998), “[o]ne has to distinguish, in this huge geographical space, different locations. We have already talked about the situation of Germans to the West, and by their side, Celtic, Latin and Italic speakers; Balts and Slavs to the East, the former to the North of the later. See, among others, works by Bonfante (1983, 1984), about the old location of Baltic and Slavic-speaking communities. Isoglosses of different chronology let us partially reconstruct the language history. Note that the output obtained with Phonetics and Morphology match up essentially those of Porzig, who worked with Lexica”.

53

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN Kortlandt (1989), also considers that “[i]t is possible that the speakers of Italo-Celtic must be assigned to the Globular Amphora culture, and that Germanic grew out of a later component of the Corded Ware horizon (…) The Indo-Europeans who remained after the migrations became speakers of Balto-Slavic. If the speakers of the other satem languages can be assigned to the Yamnaya horizon and the western Indo-Europeans to the Corded Ware horizon, it is attractive to assign the ancestors of the Balts and the Slavs to the Middle Dnieper culture [an eastern extension of the Corded Ware culture, of northern Ukraine and Belarus]. If the origin of this culture “is to be sought in the Sredny Stog, Yamnaya and Late Tripolye cultures” and this phase is “followed by a middle period where the classic Corded Ware amphorae and beakers appear” (Mallory 1989: 248), the course of events corresponds nicely with the development of a satem language which was drawn into the western Indo-European sphere of influence”. Similarly, Adrados (1980) about the dialectal situation of Slavic (under a linguistic point of view): “To a layer of archaisms, shared or not with other languages (…) Slavic added different innovations, some common to Baltic. Some of them are shared with Germanic, as the oblique cases in -m and feminine participle; others with Indo-Iranian, so satemization, Ruki sound law (more present in Slavic than in Baltic) (…) Most probably, those common characteristics come from a recent time, from secondary contacts between IE III B [=Northern IE] (whose rearguard was formed by Balto-Slavs) and A [=Southern IE] (in a time when Greeks were not in contact anymore, they had already migrated to Greece)”. On the archaeological quest for the Urheimat, Mallory & Adams (2006) make a complete summary of the different frameworks and models used. About the Retrospective Method, still favoured by many linguists, it is the “method where one examines those archaeological cultures that must have been associated with different Indo-European language groups and attempts to work backwards to the ‘proto-culture’. The unit of analysis here is the so-called ‘archaeological culture’, a classification device employed by archaeologists to deal with similar and geographically confined material culture and behaviour (…) Many of the language groups of Europe, i.e. Celtic, Germanic, Baltic, and Slavic, may possibly be traced back to the Corded Ware horizon of northern, central, and eastern Europe that flourished c. 3200-2300 BC. Some would say that the Iron Age cultures of Italy might also be derived from this cultural tradition. For this reason the Corded Ware culture is frequently discussed as a prime candidate for early Indo-European”.

Italic (with Latin), Celtic and Germanic are usually classified within a common West Indo-European nucleus. Balto-Slavic, on the other hand, is usually placed somewhere outside that West IE core, but always in close contact with it, as a North-West IndoEuropean dialect. Linguists have pointed out language contacts of Italic with Celtic,

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction

Celtic with Germanic, and Germanic with Balto-Slavic. Southern dialectal isoglosses affect Balto-Slavic and Tocharian, and only partially Germanic and Latin. NOTE 1. Celtic too shares isoglosses with Southern dialects, according to Meier-Brügger (2003): “Celtic contacts with eastern Indo-Europe are ancient. Compare the case, among others, of relative pronouns, which in Celtic, contrarily to the Italic *kwo-/*kwi-, is represented by *Hi̯o-, a characteristic that it shares with Greek, Phrygian, Indo-Iranian and Slavic”. Even though classifications of early proto-languages may vary depending on different criteria, they all have a known common origin, which is generally easier to reconstruct than their dialectal groupings. For example, if we had only some texts of Old French, Old Spanish and Old Portuguese, Mediaeval Italian and Modern Romanian and Catalan, then Vulgar Latin (ca. 200 AD) – i.e. the features of the common language spoken by all Romance speakers, not the older, artificial, literary Classical Latin (ca. 100 BC) still less Old Latin (ca. 700 BC) – could be easily reconstructed, but the dialectal groups not. In fact, the actual groupings of the Romance languages are controversial, even knowing well enough Archaic, Classic and Vulgar Latin, and the history of Romance languages. Hence the difficulties in reconstructing and grouping individual North-West IE dialects, but the certainty in reconstructing a common North-West or Europe’s Indo-European language using raw linguistics, better explained if combined with archaeological data. NOTE 2. On the inclusion of Pre-Latin IE within West Indo-Europe, against it there are some archaeological and linguistic theories (see Szemerényi, Colin Renfrew; v.s. for J.P. Mallory); Polomé (1983) & Schmidt (1984) say innovations common to Celtic and Germanic (later than those common to Celtic, Latin and Germanic), come from a time when Latin peoples had already migrated to the Italian peninsula. On the unity of Proto-Italic and Proto-Latin, Adrados (1998): “dubious is the old unity scheme, no doubt only partial, between Latin and Osco-Umbrian, which has been rejected by famous Italian linguists, relating every coincidence to recent contacts. I am not so sure about that, as the common innovations are big; cf. Beeler 1966, who doesn’t however dispel the doubts. Obviously, according to the decision taken, there are different historical consequences. If one thinks that both linguistic groups come from the North, through the Alps (cf. Tovar 1950), from the end of the 2nd millennium, a previous unity can be proposed. But authors like Devoto (1962) or Szemerényi (1962) made Latin peoples come from the East, through Apulia”. There has been a continued archaeological and (especially) linguistic support by mainstream IE studies to the derivation of Italic (and Latin) from a West Indo-European core, even after critics to the old Italo-Celtic concept (C. Watkins Italo-Celtic Revisited, 1963, K.H. Schmidt Latein und Keltisch, 1986); see Porzig (1954), Dressler (1971), Tovar (1970), Pisani (1974), Lehmann (1974), Bonfante (1983, 1984), Beekes (1995), Adrados, Bernabé, Mendoza (1998), etc.; on the archaeological question, see Ghirshman (1977), Thomas (1984), Gimbutas (1985), Harall (1995),…

• PIH *H before consonants → EIE Ø; cf. PIE *h1dent-, EIE dentis (cf. PGk odōnts), “tooth”; PIE *h2stér-, EIE stḗr (cf. PGk astḗr), etc.

NOTE. The question is often made the other way round in IE studies, i.e. “according to these vowels reconstructed for North-West Indo-European, Proto-Greek and Proto-Indo-Iranian, which combination of laryngeal+vowel or vowel+laryngeal could make them all fit into a common mother-language?” For clarity purposes, Common PIE is taken in this book as example for the phonology of early dialects, but enough certainty in vocalism (for language revival purposes) is to be found only in EIE, PGk and PII; exact regularity or congruence of a common Proto-IndoEuropean phonology is neither necessary nor searched for, as there are many variations in the laryngeal theories proposed by scholars, who reconstruct from just one (Szemerényi) to eight (Puhvel) or nine (Adrados); a general reconstruction of three laryngeals is used here for its simplicity and wide acceptance today. For more on this see Appendix II.3, The Laryngeal Theory.

1. Introduction

Their common ancestor is Proto-Germanic, probably still spoken in the mid-1st millennium B.C. in Iron Age Northern Europe, since its separation from an earlier PreProto-Germanic, a dialect of Europe’s Indo-European branch dated ca. 1500-500 BC. The succession of archaeological horizons suggests that before their language differentiated into the individual Germanic branches the Proto-Germanic speakers lived in southern Scandinavia and along the coast from the Netherlands in the west to the Vistula in the east around 750 BC. Early Germanic dialects enter history with the Germanic peoples who settled in northern Europe along the borders of the Roman Empire from the 2nd century. NOTE.

and social continuity connecting the cultures of the Nordic Bronze Age (1800-500 BCE) and the Pre-Roman Iron Age (500 BCE - 1 CE) as having implications in regard to the stability and later development of the Germanic language group. Lehmann (1977) writes “Possibly the most important conclusion based on archeological evidence with relevance for linguistic purposes is the assumption of 'one huge cultural area' which was undisturbed for approximately a thousand years, roughly from 1500-500 BC Such a conclusion in a stable culture permits inferences concerning linguistic stability, which are important for an interpretation of the Germanic linguistic data”. Also, on setting the upper boundary of a comprehensive description of Proto-Germanic grammar, Lehmann (2005) wrote: “a grammar of Proto-Germanic must be a description of the language from approximately 2500 BC to the beginning of the common era”.

The earliest evidence of the Germanic branch is recorded from names in the 1st century by Tacitus, and in a single instance in the 2nd century BC, on the Negau helmet. From roughly the 2nd century AD, some speakers of early Germanic dialects developed the Elder Futhark. Early runic inscriptions are also largely limited to personal names, and 57

difficult to interpret. The Gothic language was written in the Gothic alphabet developed by Bishop Ulfilas for his translation of the Bible in the 4th century. Later, Christian priests and monks who spoke and read Latin in addition to their native Germanic tongue began writing the Germanic languages with slightly modified Latin letters, but in Scandinavia, runic alphabets remained in common use throughout the Viking Age. The so-called Grimm’s law is a set of statements describing the inherited Europe’s Indo-European stops as they developed in Pre-Proto-Germanic. As it is presently formulated, Grimm’s Law consists of three parts, which must be thought of as

three

consecutive

phases in the sense of a chain shift:

Negau helmet. It reads (from right to left): harikastiteiva\\\ip, “Harigast the priest”.

•

PIE voiceless stops change into PGmc. voiceless fricatives: p→f, t→θ, k→x, kw→xw.

•

PIE voiced stops become PGmc. voiceless stops: b→p, d→t, g→k, gw→kw.

•

PIE voiced aspirated stops lose their aspiration and change into plain voiced stops: bh→b, dh→d, gh→g, gwh→gw,g,w.

Verner’s Law addresses a category of exceptions, stating that unvoiced fricatives are voiced when preceded by an unaccented syllable: PGmc. s→z, f→v, θ→ð; as, EIE bhratēr → PGmc. brōþēr, “brother”, but EIE mātḗr → PGmc. mōðēr “mother”. NOTE 1. W. P. Lehmann (1961) considered that Jacob Grimm’s “First Germanic Sound Shift”, or Grimm’s Law and Verner's Law, which pertained mainly to consonants and were considered for a good many decades to have generated Proto-Germanic, were Pre-Proto-Germanic, and that the “upper boundary” was the fixing of the accent, or stress, on the root syllable of a word, typically the first. Proto-Indo-European had featured a moveable pitch accent comprising “an alternation of high and low tones” as well as stress of position determined by a set of rules based on the lengths of the word's syllables. The fixation of the stress led to sound changes in unstressed syllables. For Lehmann, the “lower boundary” was the dropping of final -a or -e in unstressed syllables; for example, PIE woid-á >, Goth. wait, “knows” (the > and < signs in linguistics indicate a genetic descent). Antonsen (1965) agreed with Lehmann about the upper boundary but later found runic evidence that the -a was not

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction dropped: Gmc. ékwakraz ... wraita, “I wakraz ... wrote (this)”. He says: “We must therefore search for a new lower boundary for Proto-Germanic”. NOTE 2. Sometimes the shift produced allophones (consonants that were pronounced differently) depending on the context of the original. With regard to original PIE k and kw, Trask (2000) says that the resulting PGmc. x and xw were reduced to h and hw in word-initial position. Consonants were lengthened or prolonged under some circumstances, appearing in some daughter languages as geminated graphemes. Kraehenmann (2003) states that Proto-Germanic already had long consonants, but they contrasted with short ones only word-medially. Moreover, they were not very frequent and occurred only intervocally almost exclusively after short vowels. The phonemes b, d, g and gw, says Ringe (2006) were stops in some environments and fricatives in others.

Effects of the aforementioned sound laws include the following examples: • p→f: EIE pods “foot”, PGmc. fōts; cf. Goth. fōtus, O.N. fōtr, O.E. fōt, O.H.G. fuoz. • t→þ,ð: EIE tritjós “third”, PGmc. þriðjaz; cf. Goth. þridja, O.N. þriðe, OE. þridda, O.H.G. dritto. • k→x,h: EIE kwon “dog”, PGmc. xunðaz; cf. Goth. hunds, O.N. hundr, O.E. hund, O.H.G. hunt. • kw→xw,hw: EIE kwos “what, who”, Gmc. hwoz; cf. Goth. hwas, O.N. hverr, O.S. hwe, O.E. hwā, O.Fris. hwa, O.H.G. hwër. • b→p: EIE werbō “throw”, Gmc. werpō; cf. Goth. wairpan, O.S. werpan, O.N. verpa, O.E. weorpan, M.L.G., Du. werpen, Ger. werfen. • d→t: EIE dekm̥ “ten”, Gmc. tehun; cf. Goth. taihun, O.S. tehan, O.N. tiu, O.Fris. tian, O.Du. ten, O.H.G. zehan. • g→k: EIE gelu “ice”, Gmc. kaldaz; cf. Goth. kalds, O.N. kaldr, O.E. cald, O.H.G. kalt. • gw→kw: EIE gwīwós “alive”, Gmc. kwi(k)waz; cf. Goth. kwius, O.N. kvikr, O.E. cwic, O.H.G. quec. • bh→b: EIE bhrātēr “brother”, Gmc. brōþēr; cf. Goth. bróþar, O.N. brōþir, O.E. brōþor, O.H.G. bruoder. • dh→d: EIE dhworis “door”, Gmc. duriz; cf. Goth. daúr, O.N. dyrr, O.E duru, O.H.G. turi. 59

• gh→g: EIE ghansis “goose”, Gmc. gansiz; cf. Goth gansus, O.N. gās, O.E. gōs, O.H.G. gans. • gwh→gw/g/w: EIE gwhormos “warm”, Gmc. warmaz; cf. O.N. varmr, O.E. wearm, O.H.G. warm. EIE gwhondos “fight”, Gmc. gandaz; cf. Goth. gunþs, O.N. gandr, O.E. gūþ, O.H.G. gund. A known exception is that the voiceless stops did not become fricatives if they were preceded by PIE s., i.e. sp, st, sk, skw. Similarly, PIE t did not become a fricative if it was preceded by p, k, or kw. This is sometimes treated separately under the Germanic spirant law. EIE

probably were [ɒ] and [ɒ:] before their timbres differentiated into maybe [ɑ] and [ɔ:]. NOTE 2. PGmc. ǣ and ē are also transcribed as ē1 and ē2; ē2 is uncertain as a phoneme, and only reconstructed from a small number of words; it is posited by the comparative method because whereas all probable instances of inherited EIE ē (PGmc. *ē1) are distributed in Gothic as ē and the other Germanic languages as ā, all the Germanic languages agree on some occasions of ē (e.g. PGmc. hē2r → Goth.,O.E.,O.N. hēr, “here”). Krahe treats ē2 (secondary ē) as identical with ī. It probably continues EIE ei or ēi, and it may have been in the process of transition from a diphthong to a long simple vowel in the Proto-Germanic period. Gothic makes no orthographic and therefore presumably no phonetic distinction between ē1 and ē2. The existence of two ProtoGermanic [e:]-like phonemes is supported by the existence of two e-like Elder Futhark runes, Ehwaz and Eihwaz.

speakers worldwide, mainly in the Americas, Europe, and

Africa, as well as in many smaller regions scattered through the world. The largest languages are Spanish and Portuguese, with about 400 and 200 million mother tongue speakers respectively, most of them outside Europe. Within Europe, French (with 80 million) and Italian (70 million) are the largest ones. All Romance languages descend from Vulgar Latin, the language of soldiers, settlers, and slaves of the Roman Empire, which was substantially different from the Classical Latin of the Roman literati. Between 200 BC and 100 AD, the expansion of the Empire, coupled with administrative and educational policies of Rome, made Vulgar Latin the dominant native language over a wide area spanning from the Iberian Peninsula to the Western coast of the Black Sea. During the Empire’s decadence and after its collapse and fragmentation in the 5th century, Vulgar Latin evolved independently within each local area, and eventually diverged into dozens of distinct languages. The oversea empires established by Spain, Portugal and France after the 15th century then spread Romance to the other continents — to such an extent that about two thirds of all Romance speakers are now outside Europe. Latin is usually classified, along with Faliscan, as an Italic dialect. The Italic speakers were not native to

Italy, but migrated into the Italian Peninsula in the course of the 2nd millennium BC, and were apparently related to the Celtic tribes that roamed over a large part of Western Europe at the time. Archaeologically, the Apennine culture of inhumations enters the Italian Peninsula from ca. 1350 BC, east to west; the Iron Age reaches Italy from ca. 1100 BC, with the Villanovan culture (cremating), intruding north to south. Before the Italic arrival, Italy was populated primarily by non-Indo-European groups (perhaps including the Etruscans). The first settlement on the Palatine hill dates to ca. 750 BC, settlements on the Quirinal to 720 BC, both related to the Founding of Rome. As Rome extended its political dominion over Italy, Latin became dominant over the other Italic languages, which ceased to be spoken perhaps sometime in the 1st century AD. Italic is usually divided into: • Sabellic, including: o Oscan,

classified as Italic. However, since it also shares similarities with other Western IndoEuropean branches (particularly Germanic), some linguists prefer to consider it an independent IE language. Phonetic changes from EIE to Latin include: bh→f/b, dh→f/b, gh→h/f, gw→w/g, kw→kw/k, p→p/kw. The Italic languages are first attested in writing from Umbrian and Faliscan inscriptions dating to the 7th century BC. The alphabets used are based on the Old Italic alphabet, which is itself based on the Greek alphabet. The Italic languages themselves show minor influence from the Etruscan and somewhat more from the Ancient Greek languages. Oscan had much in common with Latin, though there are also some differences, and many common wordgroups in Latin were represented by different forms; as, Lat. uolo, uelle, uolui, and other such forms from PIE wel-, will, were represented by words derived from gher-, desire, cf. Osc. herest, “he wants, desires” as opposed to Lat. uult (id.). Lat. locus, “place” was absent and represented by Osc. slaagid. In phonology, Oscan also shows a different evolution, as EIE kw→ Osc. p instead of Lat. kw (cf. Osc. pis, Lat. quis); EIE gw → Osc. b instead of Latin w; EIE medial bh,

dh → Osc. f, in contrast to Lat. b or d (cf. Osc. mefiai, Lat. mediae); etc. NOTE. A specimen of Faliscan appears written round the edge of a picture on a patera: “foied vino pipafo, cra carefo”, which in Old Latin would have been “hodie vinom bibabo, cras carebo”, translated as “today I will drink wine; tomorrow I won't have any” (R. S. Conway, Italic Dialects). Among other distinctive features, it shows the retention of medial f which in Latin became b, and evolution of EIE gh→f (fo-, contrast Lat. ho-).

Hence the reconstructed changes of North-West Indo-European into Proto-Italic: • Voiced labiovelars unround or lenite: gw→g/w, gwh→gh. 63

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

• Voiced aspirates become first unvoiced, then fricativize: bh→ph→ɸ→f; dh→th→θ; gh→kh→x. NOTE. About PIE intervocalic gh → Ita. x, linguists (see Joseph & Wallace 1991) generally propose that it evolves as Faliscan g or k, while in Latin it becomes glottal h, without a change of manner of articulation. Picard (1993) rejects that proposal citing abstract phonetic principles, which Chela-Flores (1999) argues citing examples of Spanish phonology.

• EIE s → Ita. θ before r (cf. Ita. kereθrom, Lat. cerebrum); unchanged elsewhere. Up to 8 cases are found; apart from the 6 cases of Classic Latin (i.e. N-V-A-G-D-Ab), there was a Locative (cf. Lat. proxumae viciniae, domī, carthagini; Osc. aasai, Lat. “in ārā” etc.) and an Instrumental (cf. Columna Rostrata Lat. pugnandod, marid, naualid, etc; Osc. cadeis amnud, Lat. “inimicitiae causae”; Osc. preiuatud, Lat. “prīuātō”, etc.). About forms different from original Genitives and Datives, compare Genitive (Lapis Satricanus:) Popliosio Valesiosio (the type in -ī is also very old, Segomaros -i), and Dative (Praeneste Fibula:) numasioi, (Lucius Cornelius Scipio Epitaph:) quoiei.

Balkan Peninsula, and into Asia Minor (Galatia). Today, Celtic languages are now limited to a few enclaves in the British Isles and on the peninsula of Brittany in France. The distinction of Celtic into different sub-families probably occurred about 1000 BC. The early Celts are commonly associated with the archaeological Urnfield culture, the La Tène culture, and the Hallstatt culture. Some scholars distinguish Continental and Insular Celtic, arguing that the differences between the Goidelic and Brythonic languages arose after these split off from the Continental Celtic languages. Other scholars distinguish P-Celtic from Q-Celtic, putting most of the Continental Celtic languages in the former group – except for Celtiberian, which is Q-Celtic. NOTE. There are two competing schemata of categorization.

example is the Cel. verbal root kwrin- “to buy”, which became Welsh pryn-, but O.Ir. cren-. The other scheme links Goidelic and Brythonic together as an Insular Celtic branch, while Gaulish and Celtiberian are referred to as Continental Celtic. According to this theory, the ‘PCeltic’ sound change of [kw] to [p] occurred independently or regionally. The proponents of the Insular Celtic hypothesis point to other shared innovations among Insular Celtic languages, including inflected prepositions, VSO word order, and the lenition of intervocalic [m] to [β̃], a nasalized voiced bilabial fricative (an extremely rare sound), etc. There is, however, no assumption that the Continental Celtic languages descend from a common “Proto-Continental Celtic” ancestor.

65

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN Rather, the Insular/Continental schemata usually consider Celtiberian the first branch to split from Proto-Celtic, and the remaining group would later have split into Gaulish and Insular Celtic.

Known PIE evolutions into Proto-Celtic include: • Consonants: p →ɸ→h→Ø in initial and intervocalic positions. Cel. ɸs→xs, ɸt→xt NOTE. EIE p was lost in Proto-Celtic, apparently going through the stages ɸ (perhaps in Lus. porcos, v.i.) and h (perhaps attested by the toponym Hercynia if this is of Celtic origin) before being lost completely word-initially and between vowels. EIE sp- became Old Irish s and Brythonic f; while Schrijver (1995) argues there was an intermediate stage sɸ- (in which ɸ remained an independent phoneme until after Proto-Insular Celtic had diverged into Goidelic and Brythonic), McCone (1996) finds it more economical to believe that sp- remained unchanged in PC, that is, the change p to ɸ did not happen when s preceded.

• Aspirated: dh→d, bh→b, gh→x, gwh→gw; but gw→b. • Vowels: ō → ā, ū (in final syllable); ē→ī; EIE u-w → Cel. o-w. • Diphthongs: āi→ai, ēi→ei, ōi→oi; āu→au, ēu,ōu→ou. • Sonorants: l̥→la, li (before stops); r̥ → ar, ri (before stops); m̥ → am; n̥ → an. Italo-Celtic refers to the hypothesis that Italic and Celtic dialects are descended from a common ancestor, Proto-Italo-Celtic, at a stage post-dating Proto-Indo-European. Since both Proto-Celtic and Proto-Italic date to the early Iron Age (say, the centuries on either side of 1000 BC), a probable time frame for the assumed period of language contact would be the late Bronze Age, the early to mid 2nd millennium BC. Such grouping is supported among others by Meillet (1890), and Kortlandt (2007). NOTE. One argument for Italo-Celtic was the thematic Genitive in i (dominus, domini). Both in Italic (Popliosio Valesiosio, Lapis Satricanus) and in Celtic (Lepontic, Celtiberian -o), however, traces of PIE gentivie -osjo have been discovered, so that the spread of the i-Genitive could have occurred in the two groups independently, or by areal diffusion. The community of -ī in Italic and Celtic may be then attributable to early contact, rather than to an original unity. The i-Genitive has been compared to the so-called Cvi formation in Sanskrit, but that too is probably a comparatively late development. Other arguments include that both Celtic and Italic have collapsed the PIE Aorist and Perfect into a single past tense, and the ā-subjunctive, because both Italic and Celtic have a subjunctive descended from an earlier optative in -ā-. Such an optative is not known from other languages, but the suffix occurs in Balto-Slavic and Tocharian past tense formations, and possibly in Hitt. -ahh-.

1. Introduction

D. SLAVIC The Slavic languages (also called Slavonic languages), a group of closely related languages of the Slavic peoples and a subgroup of the Indo-European language family, have speakers in most of Eastern Europe, in much of the Balkans, in parts of Central Europe, and in the northern part of Asia. The largest languages are Russian and Polish, with 165 and some 47 million speakers, respectively. The oldest Slavic literary language was Old Church Slavonic, which later evolved into Church Slavonic. There is much debate whether Pre-Proto-Slavic branched off directly from Europe’s Indo-European in 2000 BC, or whether it passed through a common Proto-Balto-Slavic stage which had necessarily split apart before 1000 BC in its two main sub-branches.

By the 7th century, Common Slavic had broken apart into large dialectal zones.

Written documents of the 9th, 10th & 11th centuries already show some local linguistic features. 67

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. For example the Freising monuments show a language which contains some phonetic and lexical elements peculiar to Slovenian dialects (e.g. rhotacism, the word krilatec).

In the second half of the ninth century, the dialect spoken north of Thessaloniki became the basis for the first written Slavic language, created by the brothers Cyril and Methodius who translated portions of the Bible and other church books. The language they recorded is known as Old Church Slavonic.

Methodius’ mission to Great Moravia and Pannonia. There, their early South Slavic dialect used for the translations was clearly understandable to the local population which spoke an early West Slavic dialect. As part of the preparation for the mission, the Glagolitic alphabet was created in 862 and the most important prayers and liturgical books, including the Aprakos Evangeliar – a Gospel Book lectionary containing only feast-day and Sunday readings – , the Psalter, and Acts of the Apostles, were translated. The language and the alphabet were taught at the Great Moravian Academy (O.C.S. Veľkomoravské učilište) and were used for government and religious documents and books. In 885, the use of the O.C.S. in Great Moravia was prohibited by the Pope in favour of Latin. Students of the two apostles, who were expelled from Great Moravia in 886, brought the Glagolitic alphabet and the Old Indo-European Language Association

reduced *ai (*ăi/*ui) → Sla. i2; EIE au, ou → *au → Sla. u. NOTE 1. Apart from this simplified equivalences, other evolutions appear (see Kortlandt’s From Proto-Indo-European to Slavic at ): o The vowels i2, ě2 developed later than i1, ě1. In Late Proto-Slavic there were no differences in pronunciation between i1 and i2 as well as between ě1 and ě2. They had caused, however, different changes of preceding velars, see below. o Late Proto-Slavic yers ь, ъ < earlier i, u developed also from reduced EIE e, o respectively. The reduction was probably a morphologic process rather than phonetic. o We can observe similar reduction of ā into *ū (and finally y) in some endings, especially in closed syllables. o The development of the Sla. i2 was also a morphologic phenomenon, originating only in some endings. o Another source of the Proto-Slavic y is *ō in Germanic loanwords – the borrowings took place when Proto-Slavic no longer had ō in native words, as EIE ō had already changed into *ā. o EIE a (from PIE ə) disappeared without traces when in a non-initial syllable. o EIE eu probably developed into *jau in Early Proto-Slavic (or during the Balto-Slavic epoch), and eventually into Proto-Slavic ju. o According to some authors, EIE long diphthongs ēi, āi, ōi, ēu, āu, ōu had twofold development in Early Proto-Slavic, namely they shortened in endings into simple *ei, *ai, *oi, *eu, *au, *ou but they lost their second element elsewhere and changed into *ē, *ā, *ō with further development like above.

Other vocalic changes from Proto-Slavic include *jo, *jъ, *jy changed into *je, *jь, *ji; *o, *ъ, *y also changed into *e, *ь, *i after *c, *ʒ, *s’ which developed as the result of the 3rd palatalization; *e, *ě changed into *o, *a after *č, *ǯ, *š, *ž in some contexts or words; a similar change of *ě into *a after *j seems to have occurred in Proto-Slavic but next it can have been modified by analogy.

1. Introduction

While related, Lithuanian, Latvian, and particularly Old Prussian differ substantially from each other and are not mutually intelligible. The oldest Baltic linguistic record is the Elbinger lexicon of the beginning of the 14th century AD. IT contains 802 Old Prussian equivalents of Old Middle German words. The oldest Baltic text is Old Prussian as well; it comes from the middle of the 14th century AD and includes only eleven words. The first Old Lithuanian and Old Latvian texts come from the 16th century and appear already in book form, and were translations of a catechism and the Lord’s Prayer. Baltic and Slavic share so many similarities that many linguists, following the lead of such notable Indo-Europeanists as August Schleicher and Oswald Szemerényi, take these to indicate that the two groups separated from a common ancestor, the Proto-BaltoSlavic language, dated ca. 1500-500 BC, depending on the different guesstimates. NOTE 1. For those guesstimates, “Classical glottochronology” conducted by Czech Slavist M. Čejka in 1974 dates the Balto-Slavic split to -910±340 BCE, Sergei Starostin in 1994 dates it to 1210 BCE, and “recalibrated glottochronology” conducted by Novotná & Blažek dates it to 14001340 BCE. This agrees well with Trziniec-Komarov culture, localized from Silesia to Central Ukraine and dated to the period 1500–1200 BCE. NOTE 2. Until Meillet’s Dialectes indo-européens of 1908, Balto-Slavic unity was undisputed among linguists – as he notes himself at the beginning of the Le Balto-Slave chapter, “L’unité linguistique balto-slave est l’une de celles que personne ne conteste”. Meillet’s critique of BaltoSlavic confined itself to the seven characteristics listed by Karl Brugmann in 1903, attempting to show that no single one of these is sufficient to prove genetic unity. Szemerényi in his 1957 reexamination of Meillet’s results concludes that the Balts and Slavs did, in fact, share a “period of common language and life”, and were probably separated due to the incursion of Germanic tribes along the Vistula and the Dnepr roughly at the beginning of the Common Era.

A new theory was proposed in the 1960s by V. Ivanov and V. Toporov: that the BaltoSlavic proto-language split from the start into West Baltic, East Baltic and Proto-Slavic. In their framework, Proto-Slavic is a peripheral and innovative Balto-Slavic dialect which suddenly expanded, due to a conjunction of historical circumstances. Onomastic evidence shows that Baltic languages were once spoken in much wider territory than the one they cover today, and were later replaced by Slavic. NOTE. The most important of these common Balto-Slavic isoglosses are:

71

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN o Winter’s law: lengthening of a short vowel before a voiced plosive, usually in a closed syllable. o Identical reflexes of PIE syllabic sonorants, usually developing i and u before them. Kuryłowicz thought that *uR reflexes arose after PIE velars, and also notable is also older opinion of J.Endzelīns and R. Trautmann according to whom *uR reflexes are the result of zero-grade of morphemes that had EIE o → PBSl. *a in normal-grade. Matasović (2008) proposes following internal rules after EIE syllabic R → BSl. *əR: 1) *ə→*i in a final syllable; 2) *ə→*u after velars and before nasals; 3) *ə→*i otherwise. o Hirt’s law: retraction of PIE accent to the preceding syllable closed by a laryngeal. o Rise of the Balto-Slavic acute before PIE laryngeals in a closed syllable. o Replacement of PIE genitive singular of thematic nouns with ablative. o Formation of past tense in *-ē (cf. Lith. pret. dãvė, “he gave”, O.C.S. imperfect bě, “he was”) o Generalization of the IE neuter to- stem to the nominative singular of masculine and feminine demonstratives instead of IE so- pronoun, so, sā, tod → BSl. tos, tā, tod. o Formation of definite adjectives with a construction of adjective and relative pronoun; cf. Lith. geràsis, “the good”, vs. gẽras, “good”; O.C.S dobrъjь, “the good”, vs. dobrъ, “good”. Common Balto-Slavic innovations include several other prominent, but non-exclusive isoglosses, such as the satemization, Ruki, change of PIE o → BSl. *a (shared with Germanic, Indo-Iranian and Anatolian) and the loss of labialization in PIE labiovelars (shared with Indo-Iranian, Armenian and Tocharian). Among Balto-Slavic archaisms notable is the retention of traces of an older PIE accent. ‘Ruki’ is the term for a sound law which is followed especially in BSl. and Aryan dialects. The name of the term comes from the sounds which cause the phonetic change, i.e. PIE s → š / r, u, K, i (it associates with a Slavic word which means ‘hands’ or ‘arms’). A sibilant [s] is

retracted to [ʃ] after i,u,r, and after velars (i.e. k which may have developed from earlier k, g, gh). Due to the character of the retraction, it was probably an apical sibilant (as in Spanish), rather than the dorsal of English. The first phase (s → š) seems to be universal, the later retroflexion (in Sanskrit and probably in Proto-Slavic as well) is due to levelling of the sibilant system, and so is the third phase - the retraction to velar [x] in Slavic and also in some Middle Indian languages, with parallels in e.g. Spanish. This rule was first formulated for IE by Holger Pedersen. Baltic and Slavic show a remarkable amount of correspondence in vocabulary too; there are at least 100 words exclusive to BSl., either being a common innovation or sharing the same semantic development from a PIE root; as, BSl. *lēipā, “tilia” → Lith. líepa, O.Prus. līpa, Ltv. liẽpa; Sla. *lipa; BSl. *rankā, “hand” → Lith. rankà, O.Prus. rānkan, Ltv. rùoka; Sla. *rǭkà (cf. O.C.S. rǫka). BSl. *galwā́, “head” → Lith. galvà, O.Prus. galwo, Ltv. galva; Sla. *golvà (cf. O.C.S. glava).

1. Introduction

F. FRAGMENTARY DIALECTS MESSAPIAN Messapian (also known as Messapic) is an extinct Indo-European language of southeastern Italy, once spoken in the regions of Apulia and Calabria. It was spoken by the three Iapygian tribes of the region: the Messapians, the Daunii and the Peucetii. The language, a centum dialect, has been preserved in about 260 inscriptions dating from the 6th to the 1st century BC. It became extinct after the Roman Empire conquered the region and assimilated the inhabitants. There is a hypothesis that Messapian was an Illyrian language. The Illyrian languages were spoken mainly on the other side of the Adriatic Sea. The link between Messapian and Illyrian is based mostly on personal names found on tomb inscriptions and on classical references, since hardly any traces of the Illyrian language are left. NOTE. Some phonetic characteristics of the language may be regarded as quite certain: o PIE short *o→a, as in the last syllable of the genitive kalatoras. o PIE final *m→n, as in aran. o PIE *nj→nn, as in the Messapian praenomen Dazohonnes vs. the Illyrian praenomen Dazonius; the Messapian genitive Dazohonnihi vs. Illyrian genitive Dasonii, etc. o PIE *tj→tth, as in the Messapian praenomen Dazetthes vs. Illyrian Dazetius; the Messapian genitive Dazetthihi vs. the Illyrian genitive Dazetii; from a Dazet- stem common in Illyrian and Messapian. o PIE *sj→ss, as in Messapian Vallasso for Vallasio, a derivative from the shorter name Valla. o The loss of final *-d, as in tepise, and probably of final *-t, as in -des, perhaps meaning “set”, from PIE *dhe-, “set, put”. o The change of voiced aspirates in Proto-Indo-European to plain voiced consonants: PIE *dh→d, as in Messapian anda (< PIE *en-dha- < PIE *en-, “in”, compare Gk. entha); and PIE *bh→b, as in Messapian beran (< PIE *bher-, “to bear”). o PIE *au→ā before (at least some) consonants: Bāsta, from Bausta. o The form penkaheh – which Torp very probably identifies with the Oscan stem pompaio – a derivative of the Proto-Indo-European numeral *penkwe, “five”. o If this last identification be correct it would show, that in Messapian (just as in Venetic and Ligurian) the original labiovelars (*kw,* gw, *gwh) were retained as gutturals and not converted

73

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN into labials. The change of o to a is exceedingly interesting, being associated with the northern branches of Indo-European such as Gothic, Albanian and Lithuanian, and not appearing in any other southern dialect hitherto known. The Greek Aphrodite appears in the form Aprodita (Dat. Sg., fem.). o The use of double consonants which has been already pointed out in the Messapian inscriptions has been very acutely connected by Deecke with the tradition that the same practice was introduced at Rome by the poet Ennius who came from the Messapian town Rudiae (Festus, p. 293 M).

VENETIC Venetic is an Indo-European language that was spoken in ancient times in the Veneto region of Italy, between the Po River delta and the southern fringe of the Alps. It was a Centum dialect. The language is attested by over 300 short inscriptions dating between the 6th century BC and 1st century. Its speakers are identified with the ancient people called Veneti by the Romans and Enetoi by the Greek. The inscriptions use a variety of the Northern Italic alphabet, similar to the Old Italic alphabet. It became extinct around the 1st century when the local inhabitants were assimilated into the Roman sphere. NOTE. The exact relationship of Venetic to other Indo-European languages is still being investigated, but the majority of scholars agree that Venetic, aside from Liburnian, was closest to the Italic languages. Venetic may also have been related to the Illyrian languages, though the theory that Illyrian and Venetic were closely related is debated by current scholarship. Interesting parallels with Germanic have also been noted, especially in pronominal forms: Ven. ego, “I”, acc. mego, “me”; Goth. ik, acc. mik; but cf. Lat. ego, acc. me. Ven. sselboisselboi, “to oneself”; O.H.G. selb selbo; but cf. Lat. sibi ipsi. Venetic had about six or even seven noun cases and four conjugations (similar to Latin). About 60 words are known, but some were borrowed from Latin (liber.tos. < libertus) or Etruscan. Many of them show a clear Indo-European origin, such as Ven. vhraterei (< PIE *bhreh2terei), “to the brother”. In Venetic, PIE stops *bh→f, *dh→f, *gh→h, in word-initial position (as in Latin and OscoUmbrian), but to *bh→b, *dh→d, *gh→g, in word-internal intervocalic position, as in Latin. For Venetic, at least the developments of *bh and *dh are clearly attested. Faliscan and Osco-Umbrian preserve internal *bh→f,* dh→f, *gh→h.

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction There are also indications of the developments of PIE initial *gw→w-, PIE *kw→kv and PIE initial *gwh→f in Venetic, all of which are parallel to Latin, as well as the regressive assimilation of PIE sequence p...kw... → kw...kw... (e.g. penkwe → *kwenkwe, “five”, perkwu → *kwerkwu, “oak”), a feature also found in Italic and Celtic (Lejeune 1974).

LIGURIAN The Ligurian language was spoken in pre-Roman times and into the Roman era by an ancient people of north-western Italy and south-eastern France known as the Ligures. Very little is known about this language (mainly place names and personal names remain) which is generally believed to have been Indo-European; it appears to have adopted significantly from other IE languages, primarily Celtic (Gaulish) and Latin. Strabo states “As for the Alps... Many tribes (éthnê) occupy these mountains, all Celtic (Keltikà) except the Ligurians; but while these Ligurians belong to a different people (hetero-ethneis), still they are similar to the Celts in their modes of life (bíois).” LIBURNIAN The Liburnian language is an extinct IE language which was spoken by the ancient Liburnians in the region of Liburnia (south of the Istrian peninsula) in classical times. It is usually classified as a Centum language. It appears to have been on the same IndoEuropean branch as the Venetic language; indeed, the Liburnian tongue may well have been a Venetic dialect. NOTE. No writings in Liburnian are known, though. The grouping of Liburnian with Venetic is based on the Liburnian onomastics. In particular, Liburnian anthroponyms show strong Venetic affinities, with many common or similar names and a number of common roots, such as Vols-, Volt-, and Host- (
Liburnia was conquered by the Romans in 35 BC, and its language was eventually replaced by Latin, undergoing language death probably very early in the Common Era. 75

inhabited by Lusitanian tribes, from Douro to the Tagus river in the western area of the Iberian Peninsula, where they were established already before the 6th c. BC. Their language is usually considered a Pre-Celtic (possibly Italo-Celtic) IE dialect, and it is sometimes associated with the language of the Vettones and with the linguistic substratum of the Gallaeci and Astures, based on archaeological findings and descriptions of ancient historians. NOTE. The affiliation of the Lusitanian language within a Pre-Celtic (or Italo-Celtic) IE group is still debated. There are those who endorse that it is a Celtic language, a theory largely based upon the historical fact that the only Indo-European tribes that are known to have existed in Portugal at that time were Celtic tribes. The apparent Celtic character of most of the lexicon —anthroponyms and toponyms — may also support a Celtic affiliation. There is a substantial problem in the Celtic theory however: the preservation of PIE initial *p-, as in Lusitanian pater or porcom, meaning “father” and “pig”, respectively. The Celtic languages had lost that initial *p- in their evolution; compare Lat. pater, Gaul. ater, and Lat. porcum, O.Ir. orc. However, it does not necessarily

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction preclude the possibility of Lusitanian being Celtic, because of the supposed evolution of PIE initial *p → *ɸ → *h → Cel. Ø, so it might have been an early Proto-Celtic (or Italo-Celtic) dialect that split off before the loss of p-, or when p- had become *ɸ - (before shifting to h- and then being lost); the letter p of the Latin alphabet could have been used to represent either sound. F. Villar and R. Pedrero relate Lusitanian with the Italic languages. The theory is based on parallels in the names of deities, as Lat. Consus, Lus. Cossue, Lat. Seia, Lus. Segia, or Marrucinian Iovia, Lus. Iovea(i), etc. and other lexical items, as Umb. gomia, Lus. comaiam, with some other grammatical elements.

II. NORTHERN INDO-EUROPEAN IN ASIA: TOCHARIAN Tocharian or Tokharian is one of the most obscure branches of the group of IndoEuropean languages. The name of the language is taken from people known to the Greek historians (Ptolemy VI, 11, 6) as the Tocharians (Greek Τόχαροι, “Tokharoi”). NOTE. These are sometimes identified with the Yuezhi and the Kushans, while the term Tokharistan usually refers to 1st millennium Bactria. A Turkic text refers to the Turfanian language (Tocharian A) as twqry. F. W. K. Müller has associated this with the name of the Bactrian Tokharoi. In Tocharian, the language is referred to as arish-käna and the Tocharians as arya.

Tocharian consisted of two languages; Tocharian A (Turfanian, Arsi, or East Tocharian) and Tocharian B (Kuchean or West Tocharian). These languages were spoken roughly from the 6th to 9th century centuries; before they became extinct, their speakers were absorbed into the expanding Uyghur tribes. Both languages were once spoken in the Tarim Basin in Central Asia, now the Xinjiang Autonomous Region of China. Note. Properly speaking, based on the tentative interpretation of twqry as related to Tokharoi, only Tocharian A may be referred to as Tocharian, while Tocharian B could be called Kuchean (its native name may have been kuśiññe), but since their grammars are usually treated together in scholarly works, the terms A and B have proven useful.

Tocharian is documented in manuscript fragments, mostly from the 8th century (with a few earlier ones) that were written on palm leaves, wooden tablets and Chinese paper, preserved by the extremely dry climate of the Tarim Basin. Samples of the language have been discovered at sites in Kucha and Karasahr, including many mural inscriptions. Tocharian A and B were not intercomprehensible. The common Proto-Tocharian language must have preceded the attested languages by several centuries, probably dating to the 1st millennium BC. 77

1.7.2. SOUTHERN INDO-EUROPEAN DIALECTS I. GREEK

Ancient Greek dialects by 400 BC after R.D. Woodard (2008).

Greek is an Indo-European branch with a documented history of 3,500 years. Today, Modern Greek is spoken by 15 million people in Greece, Cyprus, the former Yugoslavia (especially in the FYROM), Bulgaria, Albania and Turkey. The major dialect groups of the Ancient Greek period can be assumed to have developed not later than 1120 BC, at the time of the Dorian invasions, and their first appearances as precise alphabetic writing began in the 8th century BC. The ancient Greeks themselves considered there to be three major divisions of the Greek people, into Dorians, Aeolians, and Ionians (including Athenians), each with their own defining and distinctive dialects. Allowing for their oversight of Arcadian, an obscure mountain dialect, and Cyprian, far from the center of Greek scholarship, this division of people and Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction

language is quite similar to the results of modern archaeological and linguistic investigation. Greek has been spoken in the Balkan Peninsula since 2000 BC. The earliest evidence of this is found in the Linear B tablets dating from 1500 BC. The later Greek alphabet is unrelated to Linear B, and was derived from the Phoenician alphabet; with minor modifications, it is still used today. Mycenaean is the most ancient attested form of the Greek branch, spoken on mainland Greece and on Crete in the 16th to 11th centuries BC, before the Dorian invasion. It is preserved in inscriptions in Linear B, a script invented on Crete before the 14th century BC. Most instances of these inscriptions are on clay tablets found in Knossos and in Pylos. The

Linear B has roughly 200 signs, divided into syllabic signs with phonetic values and logograms with semantic values.

language is named after Mycenae, the first of the palaces to be excavated. The tablets remained long undeciphered, and every conceivable language was suggested for them, until Michael Ventris deciphered the script in 1952 and proved the language to be an early form of Greek. The texts on the tablets are mostly lists and inventories. No prose narrative survives, much less myth or poetry. Still, much may be glimpsed from these records about the people who produced them, and about the Mycenaean period at the eve of the so-called Greek Dark Ages. Unlike later varieties of Greek, Mycenaean probably had seven grammatical cases, the nominative, the genitive, the accusative, the dative, the instrumental, the locative, and the vocative. The instrumental and the locative however gradually fell out of use. NOTE. For the Locative in *-ei, compare di-da-ka-re, ‘didaskalei’, e-pi-ko-e, ‘Epikóhei’, etc (in Greek there are syntactic compounds like puloi-genēs, ‘born in Pylos’); also, for remains of an Ablative case in *-ōd, compare (months’ names) ka-ra-e-ri-jo-me-no, wo-de-wi-jo-me-no, etc.

Proto-Greek, a southern PIE dialect, was spoken in the late 3rd millennium BC, roughly at the same time as North-West Indo-European and Proto-Indo-Iranian, most probably in the Balkans. It was probably the ancestor of Phrygian too, and possibly that of Ancient 79

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

Macedonian, Dacian, Thracian, and arguably Armenian. The unity of Proto-Greek probably ended as Hellenic migrants, speaking the predecessor of the Mycenaean language, entered the Greek paeninsula around the 21st century BC. They were then separated from the Dorian Greeks, who entered the peninsula roughly one millennium later, speaking a dialect that in some respects had remained more archaic. NOTE. For Pelasgian and other Greek substrates as IE, some have cited different phonological developments in words like τύμβος (tumbos < PIE *dhmbhos) or πύργος (purgos < PIE *bhrghos).

Proto-Greek was affected by a late Satemization trend, evidenced by the (postMycenaean) change of labiovelars into dentals before e (e.g. kwe → te “and”). The primary sound changes from (laryngeal) PIE to Proto-Greek include: • Aspiration of PIE intervocalic *s → PGk h. NOTE. The loss of PIE prevocalic *s- was not completed entirely, famously evidenced by sus “sow”, dasus “dense”; sun “with”, sometimes considered contaminated with PIE *kom (cf. Latin cum) to Homeric / Old Attic ksun, is possibly a consequence of Gk. psi-substrate (See Villar).

• De-voicing of voiced aspirates: *bh→ph, *dh→th, *gh→kh, *gwh→kwh. • Dissimilation of aspirates (Grassmann’s law), possibly post-Mycenaean. • PIE word-initial *j- (not *Hj-) is strengthened to PGk dj- (later Gk. ζ-). • Vocalization of laryngeals between vowels and initially before consonants, i.e. *h1→e, *h2→a, *h3→o. NOTE. The evolution of Proto-Greek should be considered with the background of an early Palaeo-Balkan Sprachbund that makes it difficult to delineate exact boundaries between individual languages. The characteristically Greek representation of word-initial laryngeals by prosthetic vowels is shared by the Armenian language, which also shares other phonological and morphological peculiarities of Greek, vide infra.

• The sequence CRHC (where C = consonant, R = resonant, H = laryngeal) becomes PIE CRh1C → PGk CRēC; PIE CRh2C → PGk CRāC; PIE CRh3C → PGk CRōC. • The sequence PIE CRHV (where V = vowel) becomes PGk CaRV. NOTE. It has also been proposed by Sihler (2000) that Vkw→ukw; cf. PIE *nokwts, “night” → PGk nukwts → Gk. nuks/nuxt-; cf. also *kwekwlos, “circle” → PGk kwukwlos → Gk. kuklos; etc.

Later sound changes between Proto-Greek and the attested Mycenaean include:

At that time, e in a particular phonetic situation must have been pronounced in a more closed manner, cf. di-pa i.e. dipas neuter ‘lidded container fror drinking’ vs. the later δέρας (since Homer): Risch (1981), O. Panagl (1989). That the i-form extended to the entire Greek region may be explained in that the word, very central during Mycenaean rule of the entire region (2nd millennium BC), spread and suppressed the e-form that had certainly been present at one time. On the -pp-: The original double-consonance -ku-̯ was likely replaced by -

kwkw- in the pre-Mycenaean period, and again, in turn by -pp- after the disappearance of the

labiovelars. Suggestions of an ancient -kwkw- are already given by the Mycenaean form as i-qo (a possible *i-ko-wo does not appear) and the noted double-consonance in alphabetic Greek. The aspiration of the word at the beginning remains a riddle”.

Other features common to the earliest Greek dialects include: • The PIE dative, instrumental and locative cases were syncretized into a single dative. • Dialectal nominative plural in -oi, -ai fully replaces Late PIE common *-ōs, *-ās. • The superlative on -tatos (

• Infinitives in -ehen, -enai and -men are also common to Greek dialects. II. ARMENIAN Armenian is an Indo-European language spoken in the Armenian Republic , as well as in the region of Nagorno-Karabakh, and also used by ethnic Armenians in the Diaspora. Armenian has been traditionally regarded as a close relative of Phrygian,

larger context of Paleo-Balkans languages – notably including Phrygian, which is widely accepted as an Indo-European language particularly close to Greek, and sometimes Ancient Macedonian –, consistent with Herodotus’ recording of the Armenians as descending from colonists of the Phrygians. NOTE. That traditional linguistic theory, proposed by Pedersen (1924), establishes a close relationship between both original communities, Greek and Armenian, departing from a common subdialect of IE IIIa (Southern Dialect of Late PIE). That vision, accepted for a long time, was rejected by Clackson (1994) in The linguistic relationship between Armenian and Greek, which, supporting the Graeco-Aryan linguistic hypothesis, dismisses that the coincidences between Armenian and Greek represent more than those found in the comparison between any other IE language pair. Those findings are supported by Kortlandt in Armeniaca (2003), in which he proposes an old Central IE continuum Daco-Albanian / Graeco-Phrygian / Thraco-Armenian. Adrados (1998), considers an older Southern continuum Graeco-[Daco-]Thraco-Phrygian / Armenian / Indo-Iranian. Olteanu (2009) proposes a Graeco-Daco-Thracian language.

The earliest testimony of the Armenian language dates to the 5th century AD, the Bible translation of Mesrob Mashtots. The earlier history of the language is unclear and the Indo-European Language Association

Proto-Armenian sound-laws are varied and eccentric, such as IE *dw- yielding Arm. k-, and in many cases still uncertain.

PIE voiceless stops are aspirated in Proto-Armenian, a circumstance that gave rise to the Glottalic theory, which postulates that this aspiration may have been sub-phonematic already in ProtoIndo-European. In certain contexts, these aspirated stops are further reduced to w, h or zero in Armenian – so e.g. PIE *p’ots,

Armenian manuscript, ca. 5 th -6 th c.

into Arm. otn, Gk. pous, “foot”; PIE *t’reis, Arm. erek’, Gk. treis, “three”. The reconstruction of Proto-Armenian being very uncertain, there is no general consensus on the date range when it might have been alive. If Herodotus is correct in deriving Armenians from Phrygian stock, the Armenian-Phrygian split would probably date to between roughly the 12th and 7th centuries BC, but the individual sound-laws leading to Proto-Armenian may have occurred at any time preceding the 5th century AD. The various layers of Persian and Greek loanwords were likely acquired over the course of centuries, during Urartian (pre-6th century BC) Achaemenid (6th to 4th c. BC; Old Persian), Hellenistic (4th to 2nd c. BC Koine Greek) and Parthian (2nd c. BC to 3rd c. AD; Middle Persian) times. Grammatically, early forms of Armenian had much in common with classical Greek and Latin, but the modern language (like Modern Greek) has undergone many transformations. Interestingly enough, it shares with Italic dialects the secondary IE suffix *-tjōn, extended from *-ti-, cf. Arm թյուն (t’youn). 83

It consists of two main language groups, IndoAryan and Iranian, and probably Nuristani; Dardic is usually classified within the Indic subgroup. The contemporary Indo-Iranian languages form therefore the second largest subbranch of Indo-European (after North-West Indo-European), with more than one billion speakers in total, stretching from Europe (Romani) and the Caucasus (Ossetian) to East India (Bengali and Assamese). The largest in terms of native speakers are Hindustani (Hindi and Urdu, ca. 540 million), Bengali (ca. 200 million), Punjabi (ca. 100 million), Marathi and Persian (ca. 70 million each), Gujarati (ca. 45 million), Pashto (40 million), Oriya (ca. 30 million), Kurdish and Sindhi (ca. 20 million each).

Proto-Indo-Iranians are commonly identified with the bearers of the Andronovo culture and their homeland with an area of the Eurasian steppe that borders the Ural River on the west, the Tian Shan on the east – where the Indo-Iranians took over the area occupied by the earlier Afanasevo culture –, and Transoxiana and the Hindu Kush

on the south. Historical linguists broadly estimate that a continuum of Indo-Iranian languages probably began to diverge by 2000 BC, preceding both the Vedic and Iranian cultures. A Two-wave model of Indo-Iranian expansion have been proposed (see Burrow 1973 and Parpola 1999), strongly associated with the chariot. Aryans spread into the Caucasus, the Iranian plateau, and South Asia, as well as into Mesopotamia and Syria, introducing the horse and chariot culture to this part of the world. Sumerian texts from EDIIIb Ngirsu (2500-2350 BC) already mention the ‘chariot' (gigir) and Ur III texts (2150-2000 BC) mention the horse (anshe-zi-zi). They left linguistic remains in a Hittite horse-training manual written by one “Kikkuli the Mitannian”. Other evidence is found in references to the names of Mitanni rulers and the gods they swore by in treaties; these remains are found in the archives of the Mitanni's neighbors, and the time period for this is about 1500 BC. The standard model for the entry of the Indo-European languages into South Asia is that the First Wave went over the Hindu Kush, either into the headwaters of the Indus and later the Ganges. The earliest stratum of Vedic Sanskrit, preserved only in the Rigveda, is assigned to roughly 1500 BC. From the Indus, the Indo-Aryan languages spread from ca. 1500 BC to ca. 500 BC, over the northern and central parts of the subcontinent, sparing the extreme south. The Indo-Aryans in these areas established several powerful kingdoms and principalities in the region, from eastern Afghanistan to the doorstep of Bengal. The Second Wave is interpreted as the Iranian wave. The Iranians would take over all of Central Asia, Iran, and for a considerable period, dominate the European steppe (the modern Ukraine) and intrude north into Russia and west into central and eastern Europe well into historic times and as late as the Common Era. The first Iranians to reach the Black Sea may have been the Cimmerians in the 8th century BC, although their linguistic affiliation is uncertain. They were followed by the Scythians, who are considered a western branch of the Central Asian Sakas, and the Sarmatian tribes. The Medes, Parthians and Persians begin to appear on the Persian plateau from ca. 800 BC, and the Achaemenids replaced Elamite rule from 559 BC. Around the first millennium of the Common Era, the Iranian Pashtuns and Baloch began to settle on the eastern edge of the Iranian plateau, on the mountainous frontier of northwestern 85

Pakistan in what is now the North-West Frontier Province and Balochistan, displacing the earlier Indo-Aryans from the area. The main changes separating Proto-Indo-Iranian from Late PIE include: • Early Satemization trend: o Loss of PIE labiovelars into PII plain velars: *kw→k , *gw→g, *gwh→gh . o Palatalization of PII velars in certain phonetic environments: *k→ķ, *g→ģ, *gh→ģh. • Loss of laryngeals: *HV→a, *VH→ā. Interconsonantal *H → i, cf. *ph2tḗr → PII pitr. NOTE. A common exception is the Brugmann’s law. For those linguists who consider the laryngeal loss to have occurred already in Late PIE, Aryan vocalism is described as a collapse of PIE ablauting vowels into a single PII vowel; i.e. *e,*o→a; *ē,*ō→ā.

• Grassmann’s law, Bartholomae’s law, and the Ruki sound law were complete in PII. NOTE. For a detailed description of those Indo-Iranian sound laws and the “satemization” process, see Appendix II. For Ruki sound law, v.s. Baltic in §1.7.1.

• Sonorants are generally stable in PII, but for the confusion *l/*r, which in the oldest Rigveda and in Avestan gives a general PIE *l̥ → PII r̥, as well as l→r.

Among the sound changes from Proto-Indo-Iranian to Indo-Aryan is the loss of the voiced sibilant *z; among those to Iranian is the de-aspiration of PIE voiced aspirates. A. IRANIAN

1. Introduction

The Iranian languages are a branch of the Indo-Iranian subfamily, with an estimated 150-200 million native speakers today, the largest being Persian (ca. 60 million), Kurdish (ca. 25 million), Pashto (ca. 25 million) and Balochi (ca. 7 million). Proto-Iranian dates to some time after the Proto-Indo-Iranian breakup, or the early second millennium BC, as the Old Iranian languages began to break off and evolve separately as the various Iranian tribes migrated and settled in vast areas of southeastern Europe, the Iranian plateau, and Central Asia. The oldest Iranian language known, Avestan, is mainly attested through the Avesta, a collection of sacred texts connected to the Zoroastrian religion. Linguistically, the Old Iranian languages are divided into two major families, the Eastern and Western group, and several subclasses. The so-called Eastern group includes Scythian, even though the Scyths lived in a region extending further west than the Western group. The northwestern branch included Median, and Parthian, while the southwestern branch included Old Persian. B. INDO-ARYAN The

(about 90 million), Gujarati (about 45 million), Nepali (about 40 million), Oriya (about 30 million), Sindhi (about 20 million) and Assamese (about 14 million). The earliest evidence of the group is from Vedic Sanskrit, the language used in the ancient preserved texts of the Indian subcontinent, the foundational canon of Hinduism known as the Vedas. The Indo-Aryan superstrate in Mitanni is of similar age as the Rigveda, but the only evidence is a number of loanwords. In the 4th c. BC, the Sanskrit language was codified and standardised by the grammarian Panini, called “Classical Sanskrit” by convention. Outside the learned sphere of Sanskrit, vernacular dialects (Prakrits) continued to evolve and, in medieval times, diversified into various Middle Indic dialects. C. NURISTANI The recent view is to classify Nuristani as an independent branch of the Indo-Iranian language family, instead of the the Indic or Iranian group. In any event, it would seem they arrived in their present homeland at a very early date, and never entered the western Punjab of Pakistan.

modern IE languages. There is no consensus over its origin and dialectal classification, although some scholars derive it from Illyrian, and others claim that it derives from Thracian. While it is considered established that the Albanians originated in the Balkans, the exact location from which they spread out is hard to pinpoint. Despite varied claims, the Albanians probably came from farther north and inland than would suggest the present borders of Albania, with a homeland concentrated in the mountains. NOTE. Given the overwhelming amount of shepherding and mountaineering vocabulary as well as the extensive influence of Latin, it is more likely the Albanians come from north of the Jireček line, on the Latin-speaking side, perhaps in part from the late Roman province of Dardania from the western Balkans. However, archaeology has more convincingly pointed to the early Byzantine province of Praevitana (modern northern Albania) which shows an area where a primarily shepherding, transhumance population of Illyrians retained their culture.

The period in which Proto-Albanian and Latin interacted was protracted and drawn out over six centuries, 1st c. AD to 6th or 7th c. AD. This is born out into roughly three layers of borrowings, the largest number belonging to the second layer. The first, with the fewest borrowings, was a time of less important interaction. The final period, probably preceding the Slavic or Germanic invasions, also has a notably smaller amount of borrowings. Each layer is characterized by a different treatment of most vowels, the first layer having several that follow the evolution of Early Proto-Albanian into Albanian; later layers reflect vowel changes endemic to Late Latin and presumably Proto-Romance. Other formative changes include the syncretism of several noun case endings, especially in the plural, as well as a large scale palatalization. A brief period followed, between 7th c. AD and 9th c. AD, that was marked by heavy borrowings from Southern Slavic, some of which predate the o→a shift common to the modern forms of this language group. Starting in the latter 9th c. AD, a period followed of protracted contact with the Proto-Romanians, or Vlachs, though lexical borrowing seems to have been mostly one sided – from Albanian into Romanian. Such a borrowing indicates that the Romanians migrated from an area where the majority was Slavic (i.e. Middle Bulgarian) to an area with a majority of Albanian speakers, i.e. Dardania, where Vlachs are recorded in the 10th c. AD. This fact places the Albanians at a rather early date

89

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

in the Western or Central Balkans, most likely in the region of Kosovo and Northern Albania. References to the existence of Albanian as a distinct language survive from 14th c. AD, but without recording any specific words. The oldest surviving documents written in Albanian are the Formula e Pagëzimit (Baptismal formula), Un’te paghesont’ pr’emenit t’Atit e t’Birit e t’Spirit Senit, “I baptize thee in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit”, recorded by Pal Engjelli, Bishop of Durres in 1462 in the Gheg dialect, and some New Testament verses from that period.

Later in the text (7.73), Herodotus states that the Armenians were colonists of the Phrygians, still considered the same in the time of Xerxes I. The earliest mention of Phrygian in Greek sources, in the Homeric Hymn to Aphrodite, depicts it as different from Trojan: in the hymn, Aphrodite, disguising herself as a mortal to seduce the Trojan prince Anchises, tells him: “Otreus of famous name is my father, if so be you have heard of him, and he reigns over all Phrygia rich in fortresses. But I know your speech well beside my own, for a Trojan nurse brought me up at home”. Of Trojan, unfortunately, nothing is known.

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction

Phrygian is attested by two corpora, one, Palaeo-Phrygian, from around 800 BC and later, and another after a period of several centuries, Neo-Phrygian, from around the beginning of the Common Era. The Palaeo-Phrygian corpus is further divided geographically into inscriptions of Midas-city, Gordion, Central, Bithynia, Pteria, Tyana, Daskyleion, Bayindir, and “various” (documents divers). The Mysian inscriptions show a language classified as a separate Phrygian dialect, written in an alphabet with an additional letter, the “Mysian s”. We can reconstruct some words with the help of some inscriptions written with a script similar to the Greek one. Ancient historians and myths sometimes did associate Phrygian with Thracian and maybe even Armenian, on grounds of classical sources. Herodotus recorded the Macedonian account that

Phrygians migrated into Asia Minor from Thrace (7.73). Later in the text (7.73), Herodotus states that the Armenians were colonists of the Phrygians, still considered the same in the time of Xerxes I. The earliest mention of Phrygian in Greek sources, in the Homeric Hymn to Aphrodite, depicts it as different from Trojan: in the hymn, Aphrodite, disguising herself as a mortal to seduce the Trojan prince Anchises, tells him “Otreus of famous name is my father, if so be you have heard of him, and he reigns over all Phrygia rich in fortresses. But I know your speech well beside my own, for a Trojan nurse brought me up at home”. Of Trojan, unfortunately, nothing is known. Its structure, what can be recovered from it, was typically Indo-European, with nouns declined for case (at least four), gender (three) and number (singular and plural), while the verbs are conjugated for tense, voice, mood, person and number. Phrygian seems to exhibit an augment, like Greek and Armenian, as in Phryg. eberet, probably corresponding to PIE *é-bher-e-t (cf. Gk. epheret). 91

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

A sizable body of Phrygian words are theoretically known; however, the meaning and etymologies and even correct forms of many Phrygian words (mostly extracted from inscriptions) are still being debated. Phrygian words with possible PIE origin and Graeco-Armenian cognates include: • Phryg. bekos, “bread”, from PIE *bheh3g-; cf. Gk. phōgō, “to roast”. • Phryg. bedu, “water”, from PIE *wed-; cf. Arm. get, “river”. • Phryg. anar, “husband”, “man”, PIE *h2ner-, “man”; cf. Gk. aner-, “man, husband”. • Phryg. belte, “swamp”, from PIE root *bhel-, “to gleam”; cf. Gk. baltos, “swamp”. • Phryg. brater, “brother”, from PIE *bhreh2ter-; cf. Gk. phrāter-. • Phryg. ad-daket, “does, causes”, from PIE stem *dhē-k-; cf. Gk. ethēka. • Phryg. germe, “warm”, from PIE *gwher-mo-; cf. Gk. thermos. • Phryg. gdan, “earth”, from PIE *dhghom-; cf. Gk. khthōn. NOTE.

1. Introduction

language features are deduced from what remains of the Illyrian languages, but because no writings in Illyrian are known, there is not sufficient evidence to clarify its place within the Indo-European language family aside from its probable Centum nature. NOTE. A grouping of Illyrian with the Messapian language has been proposed for about a century, but remains an unproven hypothesis. The theory is based on classical sources, archaeology, as well as onomastic considerations. Messapian material culture bears a number of similarities to Illyrian material culture. Some Messapian anthroponyms have close Illyrian equivalents. A relation to the Venetic language and Liburnian language, once spoken in northeastern Italy and Liburnia respectively, is also proposed. A grouping of Illyrian with the Thracian and Dacian language in a “Thraco-Illyrian” group or branch, an idea popular in the first half of the 20th century, is now generally rejected due to a lack of sustaining evidence, and due to what may be evidence to the contrary. Also, the hypothesis that the modern Albanian language is a surviving Illyrian language remains very controversial among linguists.

B. THRACIAN Excluding Dacian, whose status as a Thracian language is disputed, Thracian was spoken in what is now southern Bulgaria, parts of Serbia, the Republic of Macedonia, Northern Greece – especially prior to Ancient Macedonian expansion –, throughout Thrace (including European Turkey) and in parts of Bithynia (North-Western Asiatic Turkey). Most of the Thracians were eventually Hellenized (in the province of Thrace) or Romanized (in Moesia, Dacia, etc.), with the last remnants surviving in remote areas until the 5th century AD. NOTE. As an extinct language with only a few short inscriptions attributed to it (v.i.), there is little known about the Thracian language, but a number of features are agreed upon. A number of probable Thracian words are found in inscriptions – most of them written with Greek script – on buildings, coins, and other artifacts. Some Greek lexical elements may derive from Thracian, such as balios, “dappled” (< PIE *bhel-, “to shine”, Pokorny also cites Illyrian as possible source), bounos, “hill, mound”, etc.

C. DACIAN The Dacian language was an Indo-European language spoken by the ancient people of Dacia. It is often considered to have been either a northern variant of the Thracian language, or closely related to it. 93

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

There are almost no written documents in Dacian. Dacian used to be one of the major languages of South-Eastern Europe, stretching from what is now Eastern Hungary to the Black Sea shore. Based on archaeological findings, the origins of the Dacian culture are believed to be in Moldavia, being identified as an evolution of the Iron Age Basarabi culture. It

exactly when the Dacian language became extinct, or even whether it has a living descendant. The initial

Theoretical scenario: the Albanians as a migrant Dacian people

such as the Carpi may have continued to speak Dacian in Moldavia and adjacent regions as late as the 6th or 7th century AD, still capable of leaving some influences in the forming of Slavic languages. According to the hypothesis of Hasdeu (1901), a branch of Dacian continued as the Albanian language. A refined version of that hypothesis considers Albanian to be a DacoMoesian Dialect that split off before 300 BC, and that Dacian became extinct. NOTE. The arguments for this early split before 300 BC include: o Inherited Albanian words (e.g. PIE *mātēr → Alb. motër) shows the evolution PIE *ā → Alb. o, but all the Latin loans in Albanian having an ā (
Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction “pea”; raţã/rosë<*rātja: “duck”); therefore, when these words had the same common form in Pre-Romanian and Proto-Albanian the transformation PIE *ā → Alb. o had not started yet. The correlation between these two facts could indicate that the split between Pre-Romanian (the Dacians later Romanized) and Proto-Albanian happened before the Roman arrival in the Balkans.

E. PAIONIAN The Paionian language is the poorly attested language of the ancient Paionians, whose kingdom once stretched north of Macedon into Dardania and in earlier times into southwestern Thrace. Classical sources usually considered the Paionians distinct from Thracians or Illyrians, comprising their own ethnicity and language. Athenaeus seemingly connected the Paionian tongue to the Mysian language, itself barely attested. If correct, this could mean that Paionian was an Anatolian language. On the other hand, the Paionians were sometimes regarded as descendants of Phrygians, which may put Paionian on the same linguistic branch as the Phrygian language. NOTE. Modern linguists are uncertain on the classification of Paionian, due to the extreme scarcity of materials we have on this language. However, it seems that Paionian was an independent IE dialect. It shows a/o distinction and does not appear to have undergone Satemization. The Indo-European voiced aspirates became plain voiced consonants, i.e. *bh→b, *dh→d, *gh→g, *gwh→gw; as in Illyrian, Thracian, Macedonian and Phrygian (but unlike Greek).

F. ANCIENT MACEDONIAN The Ancient Macedonian language was the tongue of the Ancient Macedonians. It was spoken in Macedon during the 1st millennium BC. Marginalized from the 5th century BC, it was gradually replaced by the common Greek dialect of the Hellenistic Era. It was probably spoken predominantly in the inland regions away from the coast. It is as yet undetermined whether the language was a dialect of Greek, a sibling language to Greek, or an Indo-European language which is a close cousin to Greek and also related to Thracian and Phrygian languages. Knowledge of the language is very limited because there are no surviving texts that are indisputably written in the language, though a body of authentic Macedonian words has been assembled from ancient sources, mainly from coin inscriptions, and from the 5th 95

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

century lexicon of Hesychius of Alexandria, amounting to about 150 words and 200 proper names. Most of these are confidently identifiable as Greek, but some of them are not easily reconciled with standard Greek phonology. The 6,000 surviving Macedonian inscriptions are in the Greek Attic dialect. The Pella curse tablet, a text written in a distinct Doric Greek idiom, found in Pella in 1986, dated to between mid to early 4th century BC, has been forwarded as an argument that the Ancient Macedonian language was a dialect of North-Western Greek. Before the discovery it was proposed that the Macedonian dialect was an early form of Greek, spoken alongside Doric proper at that time.

The Pella katadesmos, is a katadesmos (a curse, or magic spell) inscribed on a lead scroll, probably dating to between 380 and 350 BC. It was found in Pella in 1986 NOTE. Olivier Masson thinks that “in contrast with earlier views which made of it an Aeolic dialect (O.Hoffmann compared Thessalian) we must by now think of a link with North-West Greek (Locrian, Aetolian, Phocidian, Epirote). This view is supported by the recent discovery at Pella of a curse tablet which may well be the first ‘Macedonian’ text attested (...); the text includes an adverb “opoka” which is not Thessalian”. Also, James L. O’Neil states that the “curse tablet from Pella shows word forms which are clearly Doric, but a different form of Doric from any of the west Greek dialects of areas adjoining Macedon. Three other, very brief, fourth century inscriptions are also indubitably Doric. These show that a Doric dialect was spoken in Macedon, as we would expect from the West Greek forms of Greek names found in Macedon. And yet later Macedonian inscriptions are in Koine avoiding both Doric forms and the Macedonian voicing of consonants. The native Macedonian dialect had become unsuitable for written documents.”

From the few words that survive, a notable sound-law may be ascertained, that PIE voiced aspirates *dh, *bh, *gh, appear as δ (=d[h]), β (=b[h]), γ (=g[h]), in contrast to Greek dialects, which unvoiced them to θ (=th), φ (=ph), χ (=kh). NOTE. Since these languages are all known via the Greek alphabet, which has no signs for voiced aspirates, it is unclear whether de-aspiration had really taken place, or whether the supposed voiced stops β, δ, γ were just picked as the closest matches to express voiced aspirates PIE *bh, *dh,

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction *gh. As to Macedonian β, δ, γ = Greek φ, θ, χ, Claude Brixhe[ (1996) suggests that it may have been a later development: The letters may already have designated not voiced stops, i.e. [b, d, g], but voiced fricatives, i.e. [β, δ, γ], due to a voicing of the voiceless fricatives [φ, θ, x] (= Classical Attic [ph, th, kh]). Brian Joseph (2001) sums up that “The slender evidence is open to different interpretations, so that no definitive answer is really possible”, but cautions that “most likely, Ancient Macedonian was not simply an Ancient Greek dialect on a par with Attic or Aeolic”. In this sense, some authors also call it a “deviant Greek dialect”.

• PIE *dhenh2-, “to leave”, → A.Mac. δανός (δanós), “death”; cf. Attic θάνατος (thánatos). PIE *h2aidh- → A.Mac.*ἄδραια (aδraia), ‘bright weather’, Attic αἰθρία (aithría). • PIE *bhasko- → A.Mac. βάσκιοι (βáskioi), “fasces”. Compare also for A.Mac. ἀϐροῦτες (aβroûtes) or ἀϐροῦϝες (aβroûwes), Attic ὀφρῦς (ophrûs), “eyebrows”; for Mac.

Βερενίκη (Βereníkē), Attic Φερενίκη (Phereníkē), “bearing victory”. o According to Herodotus (ca. 440 BC), the Macedonians claimed that the Phryges were called Brygoi (
κεϐ(α)λή (keβalē) vs. Greek κεφαλή (kephalē), “head”. • If A.Mac. γοτάν (γotán), “pig”, is related to PIE *gwou-, “cow”, this would indicate that the labiovelars were either intact (hence *gwotán), or merged with the velars, unlike the usual Gk. βοῦς (boûs). NOTE. Such deviations, however, are not unknown within Greek dialects; compare Dor. γλεπ(glep-) for common Gk. βλεπ- (blep-), as well as Dor. γλάχων (gláchōn) and Ion. γλήχων (glēchōn) for Gk. βλήχων (blēchōn).

• Examples suggest that voiced velar stops were devoiced, especially word-initially: PIE *genu- → A.Mac. κάναδοι (kánadoi), “jaws”; PIE *gombh- → A.Mac. κόμϐους (kómbous), “molars”. o Compared to Greek words, there is A.Mac. ἀρκόν (arkón) vs. Attic ἀργός (argós); the Macedonian toponym Akesamenai, from the Pierian name Akesamenos – if Akesa- is cognate to Greek agassomai, agamai, “to astonish”; cf. also the Thracian name Agassamenos.

1.7.4. ANATOLIAN LANGUAGES The Anatolian languages are a group of extinct Indo-European languages, which were spoken in Anatolia for millennia, the best attested of them being the Hittite language. The Anatolian branch is generally considered the earliest to split off the Proto-Indo-European language, from a stage referred to either as Middle PIE or “Proto-Indo-Hittite” (PIH), typically a date ca. 4500-3500 BC is assumed.

Within

north via the Caucasus, and from the darkest. Maximal extent of the Hittite Empire west, via the Balkans.

ca. 1300 BC is shown in dark color, the Egyptian sphere of influence in light color.

NOTE. The term Indo-Hittite is somewhat imprecise, as the prefix Indo- does not refer to the Indo-Aryan branch in particular, but is iconic for Indo-European (as in Indo-Uralic), and the Hittite part refers to the Anatolian language family as a whole.

Attested dialects of the Anatolian branch are: • Hittite (nesili), attested from ca. 1800 BC to 1100 BC, official language of the Hittite Empire. • Luwian (luwili), close relative of Hittite spoken in Arzawa, to the southwest of the core Hittite area. • Palaic, spoken in north-central Anatolia, extinct around the 13th century BC, known only fragmentarily from quoted prayers in Hittite texts. • Lycian, spoken in Lycia in the Iron Age, most likely a descendant of Luwian, extinct in ca. the 1st century BC. A fragmentary language, it is also a likely candidate for the language spoken by Trojans. Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction

• Lydian, spoken in Lydia, extinct in ca. the 1st century BC, fragmentary. • Carian, spoken in Caria, fragmentarily attested from graffiti by Carian mercenaries in Egypt from ca. the 7th century BC, extinct ca. in the 3rd century BC. • Pisidian

and

Sidetic

(Pamphylian),

fragmentary. • Milyan, known from a single inscription. There were likely other languages of the Anatolian branch that have left no written records, such as the languages of Mysia, Cappadocia and Paphlagonia. Anatolia was heavily Hellenized following the conquests of Alexander the Great, and it is generally thought that by the 1st century BC the native languages of the area were extinct. Hittite proper is known from cuneiform tablets and inscriptions erected by the Hittite kings and written in an adapted form of Old Assyrian

Hittite pictographic writing

cuneiform orthography. Owing to the predominantly syllabic nature of the script, it is difficult to ascertain the precise phonetic qualities of some Hittite sounds. NOTE. The script known as “Hieroglyphic Hittite” has now been shown to have been used for writing the closely related Luwian language, rather than Hittite proper. The later languages Lycian and Lydian are also attested in Hittite territory.

The Hittite language has traditionally been stratified – partly on linguistic and partly on paleographic grounds – into Old Hittite, Middle Hittite and New or Neo-Hittite, corresponding to the Old, Middle and New Kingdoms of the Hittite Empire, ca. 17501500 BC, 1500-1430 BC and 1430-1180 BC, respectively. Luwian was spoken by population groups in Arzawa, to the west or southwest of the core Hittite area. In the oldest texts, e.g. the Hittite Code, the Luwian-speaking areas including Arzawa and Kizzuwatna were called Luwia. From this homeland, Luwian speakers gradually spread through Anatolia and became a contributing factor to the

99

downfall, after circa 1180 BC, of the Hittite Empire, where it was already widely spoken. Luwian was also the language spoken in the Neo-Hittite states of Syria, such

as

and

that

the writing systems used: Cuneiform Luwian and Hieroglyphic Luwian. For the most part, the immediate ancestor of the known Anatolian languages, Common Anatolian (the Late Proto-Anatolian dialect spoken ca. 2500) has been reconstructed on the basis of Hittite. However, the usage of Hittite cuneiform writing system limits the enterprise of understanding and reconstructing Anatolian phonology, partly due to the deficiency of the adopted Akkadian cuneiform syllabary to represent Hittite sounds, and partly due to the Hittite scribal practices. NOTE 1. This especially pertains to what appears to be confusion of voiceless and voiced dental stops, where signs -dV- and -tV- are employed interchangeably different attestations of the same word. Furthermore, in the syllables of the structure VC only the signs with voiceless stops are generally used. Distribution of spellings with single and geminated consonants in the oldest extant monuments indicates that the reflexes of PIE voiceless stops were spelled as double consonants and the reflexes of Proto-Indo-European voiced stops as single consonants. This regularity is the most consistent in in the case of dental stops in older texts; later monuments often show irregular variation of this rule. NOTE 2. For a defence of Etruscan as an IE language, classified within the Anatolian branch, see Adrados (2005) at .

Known changes from Middle PIE into Common Anatolian include: • Voiced aspirates merged with voiced stops: *dh→d, *bh→b, *gh→g. Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction

• Voiceless stops become voiced after accented long-vowel or diphthong: PIH *wēk→ CA wēg-(cf. Hitt. wēk-, “ask for”); PIH *dheh1ti, “putting” → CA dǣdi (cf. Luw. taac- “votive offering”). • Conditioned allophone PIH *tj- → CA tsj-, as Hittite still shows. • PIH *h1 is lost in CA, but for *eh1→ǣ, appearing as Hitt., Pal. ē, Luw., Lyc., Lyd. ā; word-initial *h2→x, non-initial *h2→h; *h3→h. NOTE 1. Melchert proposes that CA x (voiceless fricative) is “lenited” to h (voiced fricative) under the same conditions as voiceless stops. Also, word-initial *h3 is assumed by some scholars to have been lost already in CA. NOTE 2. There is an important assimilation of laryngeals within CA: a sequence -VRHVbecomes -VRRV-; cf. PIH *sperh1V- → Hitt. isparr-, “kick flat”; PIH *sun-h3-V- → Hitt. sunna-, “fill”, Pal. sunnuttil-, “outpouring”; etc.

• PIH sonorants are generally stable in CA. Only word-initial *r̥ has been

eliminated. Word-initial *je- shows a trend to become CA e-, but the trend is not complete in CA, as Hittite shows.

• Diphthong evolved as PIH *ei → CA long ę; PIH *eu → CA ū. PIE *oi, *ai, *ou, *au, appear also in CA. NOTE. Common Anatolian preserves PIE vowel system basically intact. Some cite the merger of PIH *o and (controversial) *a as a Common Anatolian innovation, but according to Melchert that merger was secondary shared innovation in Hittite, Palaic and Luwian, but not in Lycian. Also, the lengthening of accented short vowels in open syllables cannot be of Common Anatolian, and neither can lengthening in accented closed syllables.

• The CA nominal system shows an archaic productive declension in *-i, *-u. There are only two grammatical genders, animate and inanimate. • Hittite verbs are inflected according to two general verbal classes, the mi- and the hi-conjugation. NOTE. Rose (2006) lists 132 hi-verbs and interprets the hi/mi oppositions as vestiges of a system of grammatical voice, i.e. “centripetal voice” vs. “centrifugal voice”. Additionally, the Hittite verbal system displays two voices (active and mediopassive), two moods (indicative and imperative), and two tenses (present and preterite), two infinitive forms, one verbal substantive, a supine, and a participle.

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

1.8. MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN 1.8.1. Modern Indo-European (MIE) is therefore a set of grammatical rules – including its writing system, noun declension, verbal conjugation and syntax –, designed to systematize the reconstructed Proto-Indo-European dialect North-West Indo-European – described (v.s.) as the last IE dialect continuum (spoken in Europe for some centuries within the time frame 3000-2000 BC) – to adapt it to modern communication needs. Because such PIE dialects were spoken by prehistoric societies, no genuine sample texts are available, and thus comparative linguistics – in spite of its 200 years’ history – is not (and will not be) in the position to reconstruct exactly their formal languages (the one used by learned people at the time), but only approximately how the spoken, vulgar languages were like, i.e. the proto-languages that later evolved into the different attested Indo-European dialects and languages. NOTE. Reconstructed languages like Modern Hebrew, Modern Cornish, Modern Coptic, Modern Prussian or Modern Indo-European may be revived in their communities without being as easy, as logical, as neutral or as philosophical as the million artificial languages that exist today, and whose main aim is to be supposedly ‘better’, or ‘easier’, or ‘more neutral’ than other artificial or natural languages they want to substitute. Whatever the sociological, psychological, political or practical reasons behind the success of such ‘difficult’ and ‘non-neutral’ natural languages instead of ‘universal’ ones, what is certain is that if somebody learns Hebrew, Cornish, Coptic, Prussian or Indo-European (or Latin, Gothic, Greek, Sanskrit, etc.), whatever the changes in the morphology, syntax or vocabulary that could follow (because of, say, ‘better’ or ‘purer’ or ‘easier’ language systems recommended by their language regulators), the language learnt will still be the same, and the effort made won’t be lost in any possible case. That cannot be said of personal inventions.

1.8.2. We deemed it worth it to use the Proto-Indo-European reconstruction for the revival of a complete modern language system, because of the obvious need for a common language within the EU, to substitute the current deficient linguistic policy. This language system, called European or European language (eurōpājóm), is mainly based on the features of the European or Northwestern IE dialects, whose speakers – as we have already seen – remained in close contact for some centuries after the first Late PIE migrations, and have influenced each other in the last millennia within Europe. NOTE. As Indo-Europeanist F. López-Menchero (2008) puts it, “there are ‘three (Late) ProtoIndo-European languages’ which might be distinguished today:

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction 1) The actual Proto-Indo-European language and its early dialects, spoken by prehistoric peoples of Eurasia in the Neolithic and Bronze Age, some millennia ago; 2) the reconstructed Late Proto-Indo-European language system, which has been studied by IE scholars using the linguistic, archaeological and historical data available, and which is (and will remain) imperfect by nature, based on more or less certain hypotheses and schools of thought; and 3) the modern Indo-European language systems (European, Hellenic, Aryan) which, being based on the later, and trying to come near to the former, are neither one nor the other, but modern languages systematized to be used in the modern world”. NOTE 2. In that sense, some critics have considered the so-called “Indo-European language revival” to be different from (and thus not comparable to) other language revivals, like – as they put it – Hebrew or Cornish, because of the ‘obvious differences that will exist between that ancient North-West Indo-European language and the Modern Indo-European or European language’. It is important to note that, even though there is a general belief that Modern Hebrew and Ancient Hebrew are the same languages, among Israeli scholars there have been continued calls for the “Modern Hebrew” language to be called “Israeli Hebrew” or just (preferably) “Israeli”, due to the strong divergences that exist – and further develop with its use – between the modern language spoken in Israel and its theoretical basis, the Ancient Hebrew of the Tanakh, its contents (and language variations) having being compiled probably between 450-200 BC, i.e when the language was being substituted by Aramaic. On that interesting question, Prof. Ghil’ad Zuckermann considers that “Israelis are brainwashed to believe they speak the same language as the prophet Isaiah, a purely Semitic language, but this is false. It's time we acknowledge that Israeli is very different from the Hebrew of the past”. He points out to the abiding influence of modern IndoEuropean dialects – especially Yiddish, Russian and Polish –, in vocabulary, syntax and phonetics, as imported by Israel's founders. The same could certainly be said of Cornish and other language revivals, and even of some death languages with a continued use, like the Modern Latin language used by the Catholic Church, which is not comparable to the Classical Latin used by Cicero, not to talk about the real, Vulgar Latin used by the different peoples who lived in the Roman Empire.

1.8.3. Late Proto-Indo-European features that are common to early PIE dialects (mainly North-West IE, Proto-Greek and Proto-Indo-Iranian), like nominal and verbal inflection, morphology and syntax, make it possible for PIE to be proposed as Dachsprache for an Indo-European International Auxiliary Language project. Obviously, French, German, Spanish, Hindustani, Chinese, and other natural and artificial languages proposed to substitute English dominance, are only supported by their cultural or social communities, whereas IE native speakers make up the majority of 103

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

the world’s population, being thus the most ‘democratic’ choice for a language spoken within international organizations and between the different existing nations. NOTE 1. Because Modern Indo-European (a revived North-West IE proto-language) has other sister dialects that were spoken by coeval prehistoric communities, languages like Modern Hellenic (a revived Proto-Greek) and Modern Aryan (a revived Proto-Indo-Iranian) can also be used in the regions where they are currently spoken in the form of their surviving dialects, as those proto-languages were not much more different from North-West IE than Swedish from Danish, or Spanish from Portuguese. They might also serve as linguae francae for closely related languages or neighbouring regions, i.e. Aryan for Asia, Hellenic for and Armenian-speaking territories. Anatolianism (Turkish Anadoluculuk) asserts that Turks descend from the indigenous population of ancient Anatolia, based on historical and genetic views. Supported by Turkish intellectuals in the 20th century, it became essential to the process of nation-building in Turkey, but was substituted by the Pan-Turkic nationalism Mustafa Kemal Atatürk had discouraged before his death. If accepted again, Turks could embrace their historical culture by adopting Modern Anatolian (a revived Common Anatolian, “cousin dialect” of EIE, PGk. and PII) as a modern second language for Turkey, which shares close historical and cultural ties with Europe and Asia. NOTE 2. The terms Ausbausprache-Abstandsprache-Dachsprache were coined by Heinz Kloss (1967), and they are designed to capture the idea that there are two separate and largely independent sets of criteria and arguments for calling a variety an independent “language” rather than a “dialect”: the one based on its social functions, and the other based on its objective structural properties. A variety is called an ausbau language if it is used autonomously with respect to other related languages. This typically means that it has its own standardized form independent of neighbouring standard languages, like (in this hypothetical future) Modern IndoEuropean in Europe and the Americas, Modern Aryan in Asia. This often involves being taught in schools, and being used as a written language in a wide variety of functions, possibly including that of an official national language. In contrast, varieties that are abstand languages are those that are only spoken and typically only used in private contexts. Dachsprache means a language form that serves as standard language for different dialects, even though these dialects may be so different that mutual intelligibility is not possible on the basilectal level between all dialects, particularly those separated by significant geographical distance. So e.g. the Rumantsch Grischun developed by Heinrich Schmid (1982) as such a Dachsprache for a number of quite different Romansh language forms spoken in parts of Switzerland; or the Euskara Batua, “Standard Basque”, and the Southern Quechua literary standard, both developed as standard languages for dialect continua that had historically been thought of as discrete languages

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction with many dialects and no “official" dialect. Standard German and standard Italian to some extent function in the same way. Perhaps the most widely used Dachsprache is Modern Standard Arabic, which links together the speakers of many different, often mutually unintelligible Arabic dialects. Hence a Standard Indo-European, which might take rules from Late Proto-Indo-European reconstruction and the Modern Indo-European rules presented here, would be the wide Dachsprache necessary to encompass (i.e. to serve as linguistic umbrella for) the modern revival of early PIE dialects. NOTE 3. Our proposal is different from the Hebrew language revival, but we think that: a) The reconstruction of a common Late PIE (laryngeal?) phonology, nominal or verbal inflection system results at best mainly in abstract formulae or vague approximations – following the dissertation of Mallory & Adams (v.s. § 1.1.8) –; they are very useful for a Standard IndoEuropean Dachsprache, but the reconstruction unfortunately does not have enough certainty to be used for a common, modern revived language. Reconstructions of early PIE dialects, on the other hand, result in approximations with strong statistical confidence, offering a practical system for common West European, Greek and Indo-Iranian phonetics and inflection system, but they lack enough data on their oldest morphology, syntax and vocabulary, which were obscured by later innovations. Therefore, reconstructions of Late PIE and early PIE dialects complement each other. b) Where Zionism had only some formal writings, with limited vocabulary, of an ancient language already dead centuries before their latest sacred texts were compiled (ca. 200 BC), and their people expelled from Israel (in 70 AD), Pro-Europeanism and Indo-Europeanism have PIE and its early dialects (EIE, PGk and PII) with a continued history of use in Eurasia and hundreds of living dialects, and other very old dead dialects attested, so that their modern revival can be considered ‘less artificial’. Thus, even if Europeans had tablets dating from 2000 BC in some dialectal predominant formal EIE language (say, from Pre-Germanic or Pre-Celtic IE), the current North-West Indo-European reconstruction should probably still be used as the main source for Indo-European language revival in the European Union. Just taking a look at Mycenaean inscriptions and its difficult phonetic decipherment is enough to realize how little EIE reconstruction would change if writings were found. c) The common culture and religion was probably the basis for the Hebrew language revival in Israel. Proto-Indo-European, whilst the mother tongue of some prehistoric tribe with an own culture and religion, spread into different peoples, with different cultures and religions. There was never a concept of “Indo-European community” after the migrations. However, Indo-European languages are spoken today by the majority of the population – in the world and especially within Europe –, and its early dialects spread into two main communities, EIE and PGk in Europe, PII in

105

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN South Asia. It is therefore possible to speak them as natural, cultural and national common languages, what may be a significant advantage of IE as IAL over any other natural language. Also, blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich (1774-1824), a Roman Catholic Augustinian nun, stigmatic, mystic, visionary and ecstatic, had revelations about the Confusion of Tongues (Genesis 11:1-9): “Upon Heber who, as we have said, took no part in the work, God cast His eyes; and amid the general disorder and corruption, He set him and his posterity apart as a holy nation. God gave him also a new and holy language possessed by no other nation, that thereby his race should be cut off from communication with all others. This language was the pure Hebrew, or Chaldaic [=NW Semitic]. The first tongue, the mother tongue,

Gustave Doré's Confusion of Tongues spoken by Adam, Sem, and Noe, was different, and it is now extant only in isolated dialects. Its first pure offshoots are the Zend, the sacred tongue of India, and the language of the Bactrians [=early Indo-Iranian dialects]. In those languages, words may be found exactly similar to the Low German of my native place [=any modern EIE regional dialect]. The book that I see in modern Ctesiphon [=Greek colony, site of church councils of the Church of the East], on the Tigris, is written in that language [=a PGk dialect]”. Her visions receive particular veneration from Traditional Catholics, and this one refers clearly to the three “isolated dialects” (PII, EIE and PGk) derived directly from the confounded divine tongue – which some have since identified as the common Proto-Indo-European language – spoken until ca. 3000-2500 BC according to Biblical chronology and archaeological findings of the great temple towers (ziggurats) of ancient Sumer. For the Catholic Catechism, the Genesis “uses figurative language, but affirms a primeval event”, see .

1.8.4. Modern Indo-European words to complete the lexicon of North-West IndoEuropean, in case that no common PIE form is found, are to be loan-translated from present-day North-West IE languages. Common loan words from sister dialects can also be loan-translated or taken as (proto-language) loan words. NOTE 1. Even though the vocabulary reconstructible for early PIE languages is indeed wider than the common Proto-Indo-European lexicon, a remark of Mallory & Adams (2006) regarding

Indo-European Language Association

1. Introduction reconstructible Common PIE words is interesting: “Yet we know that our reconstructed lexicon falls far short of the full language, e.g. we can reconstruct ‘eye’ and ‘eyebrow’ but not ‘eyelash’. We can most easily gain an impression of what may be missing when we consider modern ethnobotanical studies. In Proto-Indo-European we can offer about thirty-two plant names and an additional twenty-six tree names. In contrast, Brent Berlin examined the languages of ten traditional farming societies and found that the average number of botanical taxa reported in each language was 520. If we were to treat such comparisons at face value this would suggest that we are recovering only about 11 per cent of the probable botanical lexicon known to the Proto-IndoEuropeans. Or compare, for example, the fact that we can reconstruct only a few terms relating to the horse in Proto-Indo-European; in English this semantic field includes horse, pony, nag, steed, prancer, dobbin, charger, courser, colt, foal, fielly, gelding, hack, jade, crock, plug, and many more terms, including the many specific terms describing the colour of the horse, e.g. bay, chestnut, sorrel, pinto. There is no reason to suspect that PIE did not behave similarly”. NOTE 2. For examples of loan translations from modern EIE languages, cf. from Latin aquaeduct (Lat. aquaeductus → MIE aqāsduktos) or universe (Lat. uniuersus<*oin(i)-uors-o<*oino-wṛt-to- → MIE oinówṛstos ‘turned into one’); from English, like software (from Gmc. samþu-, warō → MIE somtúworā); from French, like ambassador (from Cel. amb(i)actos → MIE ambhíagtos ‘public servant’); or chamber (from O.Lat. camera, from PGk. kamárā, ‘vault’ → MIE kamarā); from Russian, like bolshevik (MIE belijówikos); etc. Modern loan words from sister or cousin IE dialects can be either loan-translated or directly taken as loan words, depending on the nature of the individual words: o Loan words should be taken directly in MIE from forms which are found only in one protolanguage or restricted to southern dialects; as e.g. Gk. photo, which should be taken directly as loan word pháwotos, from PGk phawots, gen. phawotós, as Gk. φῶς (<φάϝος), φωτός, in compound phawotogṛphjā, photography, derived from IE root bhā-, shine, which could be loan-translated as MIE *bháwotos, from *bhawotogṛbhjā, but without having a meaning for extended bha-wes-, still less for bha-wot-, in North-West Indo-European or even Proto-Indo-European, as it is only found in Ancient Greek dialects. Compare also MIE skhol, from Lat. schola, taken from Gk. σχολή (
107

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN and qel-; or katúrangam, chess, from Skr. caturaŋgam (which entered Europe from Pers. shatranj) a bahuvrihi compound, meaning “having four limbs or parts”, which in epic poetry often means “army”, possibly shortened from katurangabalam, Skr. caturaŋgabalam, lit. “four-member force”, “an army comprising of four parts”, could be loan-translated as MIE *qatúrangom and *qaturangobelom, from roots qetwṛ-, ang- and bel-. o Loan words and loan translations might also coexist in specialized terms; as, from PIE *h1rudhrós, red, PGk eruthrós, in common loan eruthrókutos, erythrocyte, proper MIE rudhrós, in rudhr (ésenos) kētjā, red (blood) cell; cf. also MIE mūs, musós, mouse, muscle, PGk mūs, muhós, in loan muhokutos, myocyte, for muskosjo kētjā, muscle cell.

1.8.5. The adjective eurōpājós, m. European, comes from the Greek noun Eurōpā. NOTE. Gk. Eurōpā is from unknown origin, even though it was linked with Homer’s epithet for Zeus euruopā, from *hurú-oqeh2 “far-seeing, broad”, or *h1urú-woqeh2 “far-sounding” (Heath, 2005). Latinate adj. europaeus, which was borrowed by most European languages, comes from Gk. adj. eurōpaíos, in turn from PGk eurōpai-jós < PIE *eurōpeh2-jós → MIE eurōpā-jós. For the evolution PIH *-eh2jo- → PGk *-aijo-, cf. adjective formation in Gk. agor-agoraíos, Ruigh (1967).

The name of the European language system is eurōpājóm, inanimate, because of the oldest IE dialects, those which had an independent name for languages used the neuter. NOTE. Compare Gk. n.pl. Ἑλληνικά (hellēniká), Skr. n.sg. संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), O.H.G. diutisc, O.Prus. prūsiskan, etc.; cf. also in Tacitus Lat. uōcābulum latīnum.

In most IE languages, the language is also referred to as “language” defined by an adjective, whose gender follows the general rule of concordance; as in MIE f. eurōpāj dṇghwā, European language. NOTE. Cf. Lat. latīna lingua, Gk. ελληνική γλώσσα, O.H.G. diutiska sprāhha (Ger. Deutsche Sprache), O.Prus. prūsiskai bilā, O.C.S. словѣньскыи ѩзыкъ (slověnĭskyi językŭ), etc.

1.8.6. Because the term Indo-European is common today to refer to the reconstructed language, we decided to use that traditional name to describe the Proto-European language, as a way to familiarize the reader with the European language system as a natural, dead language, and to distinguish it clearly from other language inventions. NOTE. However, when

pr̅mosindhueurōpājóm, Proto-Indo-European, Eurōpās sindhueurōpājóm, Europe’s Indo-European, should refer to the theoretical linguistic concepts, to the ancient reconstructed dialects, while eurōpājóm, European, should be preferred for the modern language, just like Israeli is probably the most suited name to refer to Modern Hebrew.

2. LETTERS AND SOUNDS 2.1 THE ALPHABETS OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN 2.1.1. Indo-European does not have an old writing system to be revived with. In the regions where PIE speakers dwelled four thousand years ago, caves and stones probably still keep some ancient pictographic writings, composed of logograms (graphemes) that represent a morpheme or a whole word, as did Egyptian hieroglyphic logographs. 2.1.2. The Indo-European dialects have adopted different alphabets during the last millennia, and all of them should be usable today – although the main alphabet for today’s European Union is clearly the Latin one. This is a summary table of Proto-IndoEuropean phonemes and their regular corresponding letters in MIE alphabets: Greek, Latin, Cyrillic, Perso-Arabic and (alphasyllabary) Devanāgarī.

2.1.2. The Latin Alphabet used for Modern Indo-European is similar to the English, which is in turn borrowed from the Late Latin abecedarium. We also consider some digraphs part of the alphabet, as they represent original Proto-Indo-European sounds, in contrast to those digraphs used mainly for transcriptions of loan words.

Indo-European Language Association

2. Letters and Sounds NOTE. The Latin alphabet was borrowed in very early times from the Greek alphabet and did not at first contain the letter G. The letters Y and Z were introduced still later, about 50 BC.

The names of the consonants in Indo-European are as follows - B, be (pronounced bay); Bh, bhe (bhay); C, ce (gway); Ch, che (gwhay); D, de (day); Dh, dhe (dhay); F, ef; G, ge (gay); Gh, ghe (ghay); H, ha; K, ka; L, el; M, em; N, en; P, pe; Q, qu; R, er; S, es; T, te; V, ve; W, wa; X, eks; Z, zet. 2.1.3. The Latin character C originally meant [g], a value always retained in the abbreviations C. (for Gaius) and Cn. (for Gnaeus). That was probably due to Etruscan influence, which copied it from Greek Γ, Gamma, just as later Cyrillic Г, Ge. NOTE 1. In early Latin C came also to be used for [k], and K disappeared except before in a few words, as Kal. (Kalendae), Karthago. Thus there was no distinction in writing between the sounds [g] and [k]. This defect was later remedied by forming (from C, the original [g]-letter) a new character G. Y and Z were introduced from the Greek about 50 B.C., and occur mainly in loan words in Modern Indo-European. NOTE 2. In Modern Indo-European, C is used (taking its oldest value) to represent the IndoEuropean labiovelar [gw] in PIE words, while keeping its different European values – [k], [ts], [s], [θ], [ʃ], etc. – when writing proper names in the different modern IE languages.

2.1.4. The Latin [w] semivowel developed into Romance [v]; therefore V no longer adequately represented [w] and the Latin alphabet had to develop an alternative letter. Modern Indo-European uses V mainly for loan words, representing [v], while W is left for the consonantal sound [w]. NOTE. V originally denoted the vowel sound [u] (Eng. oo), and F stood for the sound of consonant [w] (from Gk. ϝ, called digamma). When F acquired the value of our [f], V came to be used for consonant [w] as well as for the vowel [u].

2.1.5. The letter I stood for the vowel [i], and was also used in Latin (as in Modern Greek) for its consonant sound [j]. J was originally developed as a swash character to end some Roman numerals in place of I; both I and J represented [i], [iː], and [j]. In MIE, J represents the semivowel [j]. In the Latin script, Y is used to represent the vowel [y] in foreign words. NOTE. That [j] value is retained in English J only in foreign words, as Hallelujah or Jehovah. Because Romance languages developed new sounds (from former [j] and [ɡ]) that came to be represented as I and J, English J (from French J), as well as Spanish, Portuguese or Italian J have

111

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN sound values quite different from [j]. Romanisation of the sound [j] from different writing systems (like Devanagari) as Y – which originally represented in Latin script the Greek vowel [y] –, due to its modern value in English, French or Spanish, has spread a common representation of [j] as Y in Indo-European studies, while J is used to represent other sounds.

2.1.6. The consonant cluster [ks] was in Ancient Greece written as X (Chi) in Western Greek, Ξ (Xi) in Eastern Greek dialects. In the end, X was standardized as [kh] ([x] in modern Greek), while Ξ represented [ks]. In the Latin script, the X stands for [ks], as in English or Latin, whereas in the Cyrillic alphabet it stands for [h] (and aspiration), as well as for [x] in foreign words. NOTE. The Etruscans took over X from Old Western Greek, therefore it stood for [ks] in Etruscan and then in Latin, and also in most languages which today use an alphabet derived from the Roman, including English. Cyrillic X was taken with its standard Greek value [x], but is also used as [h] in those languages that need it; as, Macedonian, and Bulgarian and Serbian dialects.

2.1.7. As in Ancient and Classic Greek, in the Greek alphabet X stands for [kh], Φ for [ph], and Θ for [th]. NOTE. Because of its use in Modern Greek, they also represent (mainly foreign) [x], [f] and [θ].

2.1.8. Ē represents [ɛː] in the Greek alphabet, because Η was originally used in most Greek dialects to represent the sound [h], and it is therefore used with this value in IE writings, as well as to mark aspirated phonemes. NOTE. For more on the problem of historical Eta and its representation in the modern Greek alphabet, see .

2.2. CLASSIFICATION OF SOUNDS 2.2.1. The Vowels are short [a], [e], [i], [o], [u], written a, e, i, o, u, and long [], [], [], [], [], written ā, ē, ī, ō, ū, respectively. The other sounds are Consonants. The Modern Indo-European Diphthongs proper are [ei̯], [oi̯], [ai̯], written ei, oi, ai, and [eu̯], [ou̯], [au̯], written eu, ou, au. In these diphthongs both vowel sounds are heard, one following the other in the same syllable. NOTE. For the so-called long diphthongs [i̯], [i̯], [i̯], written ēi, ōi, āi, and [u̯], [u̯], [u̯], written ēu, ōu, āu, which remained only in Indo-Iranian, Greek and partly in Baltic languages, Schulze (1885) interpreted a regular correspondence of the type āi/ā/ī, which came respectively from the full grade of the long diphthong, the full grade before consonant (where the second

Indo-European Language Association

2. Letters and Sounds element was lost), and the zero-grade (a contraction of schwa with the semivowel). Martinet (1953) proposed that laryngeals were behind those long diphthongs. In any case, in the languages in which they are retained, long diphthongs have not a longer duration than normal diphthongs; phonologically they are equivalent, as Vedic and Greek metric shows. After Adrados (1995), “The difference, therefore, is not on the duration of the group, but on the relative duration of their components; in other words, for example ei and ēi have the same phonological duration (they are long, as opposed to a brief vowel), but in ei both elements have approximately the same duration, whereas in ēi the duration of i is perceptibly shorter than e. Because of that, the name ‘long first element diphthongs’ is more appropriate to refer to these phonemes”. Cf. Allen (1976) for an analysis of these diphthongs.

Strictly speaking, phoneticians do not consider the so-called rising diphthongs, [je], [jo], [ja], [j], [j], [j], nor [we], [wo], [wa], [w], [w], [w], as diphthongs proper, but rather sequences of glide and vowel. NOTE. Whilst most Indo-Europeanists differentiate between sequences of approximant and vowel (rising diphthongs) from true falling diphthongs in their transcriptions, i.e. writing [je] (from [i]+[e]) but [ei] or [ei̯] (from [e]+[i]), some use a different approach, considering all of them combinations of vowel plus glide or glide plus vowel, i.e. writing [je] and [ej], or [i̯e] and [ei̯].

Therefore, there are no real triphthongs. The formations usually called triphthongs are [jei̯], [joi̯], [jai̯], [jeu̯], [jou̯], [jau̯], as well as [wei̯], [woi̯], [wai̯], [weu̯], [wou̯], [wau̯]; and none can be named strictly triphthong, as there is a consonantal sound [j] or [w] followed by a diphthong. The rest of possible formations are made up of a diphthong and a vowel. 2.2.2. Consonants are either voiced (sonant) or voiceless (surd). Voiced consonants are pronounced with vocal cords vibration, as opposed to voiceless consonants, where the vocal cords are relaxed. a. The voiced consonants are [b], [d], [g], [gw], [l], [r] and [ɾ], [m], [n], [z], [j], [w]. b. The voiceless consonants are [p], [t], [k], [kw], [s]. c. The digraphs bh, dh, gh and ch represent the Indo-European voiced aspirates proper, i.e. [bh], [dh], [gh], [gwh], whereas ph, th, and kh represent voiceless aspirates [ph], [th], [kh], mostly confined to words of Greek origin, as well as foreign [ɸ], [θ] and [x], respectively.

d. The consonants [r], [l], [m], [n], and the semivowels [j] and [w], can function both as consonants and vowels, i.e. they can serve as syllabic border or center. NOTE. There is a clear difference between the vocalic allophones of the semivowels and those of the sonants, though: the first, [i] and [u], are very stable as syllabic center, while [r̥], [l̥], [m̥], [n̥], aren’t, as they cannot be pronounced more opened. Hence the big differences in their evolution, depending on the individual dialects.

Labialized velars or Labiovelars [kw] (written q), [gw] (written c), [gwh] (written ch), are pronounced like [k], [g], [gh] respectively, but with rounded lips. NOTE 1. German Neogrammarians reconstructed a fourth series of phonemes, the voiceless aspirates *ph, *th, *kh, to explain some irregularities in the outputs of the voiceless row. Most IndoEuropeanists reject this fourth independent row of phonemes, and findings of Indo-Iranian, Armenian and Greek have been explained as 1) expressive in origin, 2) contact of a voiceless with a laryngeal phoneme, and 3) effect of a prior s. For support of the fourth row, cf. Szemerényi (1985). NOTE 2. The modern mainstream Proto-Indo-European reconstruction, that accepts only these two rows of velars as the most logical PIE phonetic system, has been confronted with the question of the actual existence of the groups [kw], [gw], and [ghw], different from (and similar or identical in their dialectal outputs to) labialized [kw], [gw], and [gwh]. A distinction between both is often found, though, whether an independent row of palatalized velars is accepted or not; as, kwōn, dog, ekwos, horse, ghwer-, wild, kweidos, white, kwet-, cook (cf. O.Ind. kwathati), tekw-, run, etc. which might be found reconstructed as *qōn, *eqos, *cher-, etc. For a defence of such unified forms, see e.g. Jussi Halla-aho at .

2.2.4. The so-called Liquids are l, which represents the alveolar lateral approximant [l], an r, pronounced in PIE and in most modern IE languages (at least occasionally) as alveolar trill [r], today often allophonic with an alveolar tap [ɾ], particularly in unstressed positions. These sounds are voiced. Indo-European Language Association

2. Letters and Sounds NOTE. About Indo-European r and l, cf. Ban’czerowski (1968).

For foreign words, the group rh represents an [h] sound coming just after the [ɾ], mainly in words of Greek origin. Other groups include rr, the alveolar trill [r], and its aspirated counterpart rrh. The palatal lateral approximant [ʎ] shall be represented as lj. 2.2.5. The Nasals are labial [m], written m, and dental [n], written n. These are voiced. The velar nasal [ŋ] – as ng in English sing – could have existed in IE as allophone of [n] before velars. NOTE. Erhart (1970) reconstructs three nasals, N, M1 and M2, this one a fricative seminasal with which he explains the results of alternating m and w in some suffixes and roots; as, -ment-/went-, men-/wen-, etc. It was left unexplained, though, under which conditions did it change.

The palatal nasal [ɲ] of foreign words (similar to the [n] sound in English onion or canyon) is represented by the pair nj. 2.2.6. The Fricatives are voiceless [s] and voiced [z], z being usually the output of s before voiced consonants. NOTE. [z] was already heard in Late Proto-Indo-European, as a different pronunciation (allophone) of [s] before voiced consonants, as can be clearly seen in PIE nizdos (for nisdos), nest, which comes from PIE roots ni-, down, and zero-grade -sd- of sed, sit. Because of that it is preferred to write s for [z] in MIE.

It is also possible to write voiceless and voiced pairs from foreign words: labiodentals, f and v; dorsal voiceless h and [x], written kh; and postalveolar [ʃ] as sh and [ʒ] as zh. Possible groups include ks, ts, dz, tsh (for [tʃ]), dzh (for [dʒ]), etc. 2.2.7. The Semivowels are usually written j, and w. These are voiced. NOTE. Some authors make a distinction between consonantal [j], [w], and vocalic [i], [u]. Actually, however, both appear as TIT and EYE (where T = consontant, E = vowel, I = i,u, Y = j,w), and never as TYT or EIE. Against it, see Schmitt-Brandt (1967) and Szemerényi (1985) and Mayrhofer (1986).

2.2.8. Gemination appears in phonemes whose duration is long enough to be perceived – their implosion and explosion, both audible – as distributed in two syllables. They existed in PIE: in stops, as appās, attās (and tātā), dad, pappājō, eat, or kakkājō, shit; in nasals, as anna-, ammā (and mammā), mother, mum; in liquids, as bōullā, buble; and in the sibilant, as kussō, kiss. 115

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. They appear mostly in words of expressive origin, children vocabulary, onomatopoeia, etc., which makes it more likely that PIE inherited gemination as an expressive resource, different from its central phonological system; a resource that was retained for a long time by most IE languages as a recurrent possibility.

NOTE 1. The existence of a distinctive row of PIE ‘satemizable’ velars, the so-called palatovelars, has been the subject of much debate over the last century of IE studies. Today a majority of modern scholars support only two types of velars in Late PIE – generally Velars and Labiovelars, although other solutions have been proposed, see Appendix II.2. Palatovelars could be found in PII, though, and are to be represented with Ķ ķ, Ģ ģ, Ģh ģh. The support of German Neogrammarians to the ‘palatals’ in Proto-Indo-European, as well as its acceptance in Brugmann’s Grundriß and Pokorny’s Wörterbuch, extended the distinction to many (mainly etymological) works, which didn’t deal with the phonological reconstruction problem directly. As Adrados (2005) puts it, about the standard [=Brugmannian] theories nowadays, “Indo-Europeanists keep working on a unitary and flat PIE, that of Brugmann’s reconstruction. A reconstruction prior to the decypherment of Hittite and the study of Anatolian! This is but other proof of the terrible conservadurism that has seized the scientific discipline that is or must be Indo-European linguistics: it moves forward in the study of individual languages, but the general theory is paralised. It is sad when our students go to Germany and come back brainwashed”. NOTE 2. The cover symbol *H, traditionally *ə, stands for the uncertain Late PIE ouput of the (for Middle PIE) reconstructed laryngeal phonemes h1, h2, h3, which had evolved differently already by the time when Late PIE and Proto-Anatolian were independent languages. There is no

Indo-European Language Association

2. Letters and Sounds consensus as to what these phonemes were like, or how many of them (if any) survived into Late PIE, but it is widely accepted that PIH *h2 was probably uvular or pharyngeal, and that *h3 was labialized. Commonly cited possibilities are ʔ, ʕ, ʕw and x, χ~ħ, xw. See Appendix II.3.

2.3. SOUNDS OF THE LETTERS 2.3.1 The following pronunciation scheme is substantially that used by the common Europe’s Indo-European speakers in ca. 2500 BC, when the laryngeal phonemes had already disappeared, having coloured following vowels, and lengthened preceding ones. NOTE. MIE cannot permit dialectal phonetic differences, whether vocalic or consonantal – like Grimm’s Law effects in PGmc. consonants, already seen –, because a homogeneous pronunciation system is especially needed when targeting a comprehensible common language. Some differences exist in sister dialects Hellenic, Aryan and Anatolian, though.

2.3.2. Vowels: ā as in father

a as in idea

ē as in they

e as in met

ī as in meet

i as in chip

ō as in note

o as in pot

ū as in rude

u as in put

NOTE 1. Following the mainstream laryngeals’ theory, Proto-Indo-Hittite knew only two vowels, *e and *o, while the other commonly reconstructed vowels were earlier combinations with laryngeals. Thus, short vowels PIE a < *h2e; e < *(h1)e; o < *h3e, *(h1)o; long vowels ā < *eh2; ē < *eh1; ō < *eh3, *oh. The output of *h2o in Late PIE was either a or o, after the different schools. Short and long vowels  and  were just variants of the semivowels PIH *j and *w. NOTE 2. The sonants may have been lengthened too (usually from older sequences of sonant + laryngeal, or because of compensatory lengthenings), especially in the conjugation of verbs, giving thus [r̥], [l̥], [m̥], [n̥], written as r̅, l̅, m̅, n̅. The semivowels can also have a prolonged pronunciation, giving allophones ij and uw. For more details on this see § 2.7.2.

2.3.4. Consonants: 1. b, d, h, l, m, n, are pronounced as in English. n might also be pronounced as guttural ŋ] [ when it is There are several ways to generate breathyvoiced sounds: 1. To hold the vocal cords apart, so that they are lax as they are for [h], but to increase the volume of airflow so that they vibrate loosely. 2. To bring the vocal cords closer together along their entire length than in voiceless [h], but not as close as in modally voiced sounds such as vowels. This results in an airflow intermediate between [h] and vowels, and is the case with English intervocalic [h]. 3. To constrict the glottis, but separate the arytenoid cartilages that control one end. This results in the vocal cords being drawn together for voicing in the back, but separated to allow the passage of large volumes of air in the front. This is the situation with Hindustani.

followed by another guttural, as in Eng. sing or bank. 3. p, k, t are plain as in Romance, Slavic or Greek languages, not aspirated as in English; t is never pronounced as sh, as in English oration or creation. 4. g always as in get. It had two dialectal pronunciations, the common simple velar and the ‘eastern’ (later generalized in PII) palatovelar. Compare the initial consonants in garlic and gear, whispering the two words, and it will be observed that before e and i the g is sounded farther forward in the mouth (more ‘palatal’) than before a or o. That is what we represent as ģ, similar to ķ, pronounced as k in key, compared to c in cold. 5. c is pronounced similar to [g] but with rounded lips. Compare the initial consonant in good with get to feel the different articulation. The voiceless q is similar to [k] but pronounced with rounded lips; as c in cool, compared to c in car. 6. bh, dh, gh, ch are uncertain in sound, but the recommended

pronunciation

is

that

of

the

Hindustānī’s “voiced aspirated stops” bh, dh, gh, as they are examples of living voiced aspirates in an Indo-European language (see note to the left). 7. The voiceless aspirated ph, kh, th, frequently of Hellenic origin, are pronounced very nearly like English word-initial p, k, t, as in pen, ten, Ken. Their sound is also described as equivalent to p+h, t+h,

Indo-European Language Association

2. Letters and Sounds

k+h, i.e. to the corresponding mutes with a following breath, as in loop-hole, hot-house, block-house. 8. j as the sound of y in yes, never the common English [dʒ], as j in join; w as w in will. 9. Indo-European r was probably slightly trilled with the tip of the tongue (still common today in many IE languages), as in Scottish English curd. Another pronunciation is common today among modern IE languages, and was possibly heard in PIE, the alveolar tap [ɾ], pronounced like the intervocalic t or d in American or Australian English, as in better. 10. s is voiceless as in sin, but there are situations in which it is voiced, depending on the surrounding phonemes. Like the aforementioned [r], modern speakers will probably pronounce [s] in slightly different ways, but this should not usually lead to misunderstandings, as there are no proper IE roots with original [z] or [ʃ], even though the former appeared in some phonetic environments, v.s. 11. Doubled letters, like ll, mm, tt, etc., should be so pronounced that both members of the combination are distinctly articulated. 12. Regarding foreign sounds: o

kh might represent [x], whether strong, with ‘ach-laut’, such as kh in Russian Khrushenko, or ch Chanukah, or soft, with ‘ich-laut’, such as ch in German Kirche or Lichtenstein. Also, th might be pronounced as English th in thing, and dh as th in this.

o

z, v, f, sh, are pronounced as in English.

o

zh is pronounced as s in English leisure.

o

tsh corresponds to English ch in chain, and tzh to j in jump.

2.4. SYLLABLES 2.4.1. In many modern languages, there are as many syllables in a word as there are separate vowels and diphthongs. This is not exactly so in Modern Indo-European. It follows, indeed, this rule too: swe-sōr, sister, skrei-bhō, write, ne-wā, new, ju-góm, yoke. NOTE. The semivowels are always written j and w. So in trejes, three, newos, new, dṇghwās [‘dn̥gh-ws], languages, etc.

119

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

2.4.2. Indo-European has also consonant-only syllables. It is possible to hear similar sound sequences in English cattle or bottom, in German Haben, in Czech hlt, Serbian srpski, etc. In this kind of syllables, it is the vocalic sonant [r̥], [l̥], [m̥], or [n̥] – constrained allophones of [r], [l], [m], [n] –, the one which functions as syllabic centre, instead of a vowel proper: kṛ-di, heart, wḷ-qos, wolf, de-kṃ, ten, nō-mṇ, name. NOTE 1. Words derived from these groups, represented TRT (where T = consonant, R = sonant), are unstable and tend to add auxiliary vowels before or after the sonants, i.e. T°RT or TR°T. Because of that, their evolutions differ greatly in modern IE languages. For example, dṇghwā, language, evolved as [‘dən-ghwa:] into PGmc. tung(w)ō, and later English tongue or German Zunge, while in archaic Latin it was pronounced dingwa, and then the initial d became l in Classic Latin, written lingua, which is in turn the origin of Modern English words “linguistic” and “language”. For wḷqos (cf. Ved. vṛkas < PII wṛkas), it evolved either as [‘wəl-kwos], later into PGmc. *wulxwaz (cf. O.H.G. wolf) or BSl. *wilkas (cf. O.C.S. vьlkъ) or as [‘wlə-kwos], which gave Common Greek *wlukwos (cf. Gk. lykos), Ita. *wlupos (cf. Lat. lupus). NOTE 2. Apart from the common scheme TRT, another, less stable scheme has been proposed for a common PIE, a certain TRE (where E = vowel); as, PIE *gw°nā, for MIE cenā, woman, or *k°rwos, for kerwos, deer, etc. – conventionally, the symbol ° under the sonant is placed before it in these schemes. Nevertheless, it is commonly accepted that Late PIE dialects did in fact add an auxiliary vowel to this sequence at early times, probably before the first dialectal split: as early Indo-Iranian and Balto-Slavic dialects show, vocalization of TRE had already happened when TRT hadn’t still been vocalized, i.e. T°RE > TERE. Also, many dialects show a common vocalization in [a] for the sonant in some TERE groups, while showing different outputs (even non-vocalization) for TRT. Therefore, even if this theory might make some irregularities fit into a common Late (or Middle) PIE sound, it is not applicable to those early PIE dialectal words, whose vocalization might be inferred using the comparative grammar. Some TRE groups persisted in early IE dialects, though, often from older sequences that included laryngeals, and they are kept in MIE.

2.4.3. In the division of words into syllables, these rules apply: 1. A single consonant is joined to the following vowel or diphthong; as ne-wos, medhjos, etc.

Indo-European Language Association

2. Letters and Sounds

2. Combinations of two or more consonants (other than the vocalic ones) are regularly separated, and the first consonant of the combination is joined to the preceding vowel; as ok-tōu, eight, pen-qe, five, etc. but a-gros, field, sqa-los, squalus. 3. In compounds, the parts are usually separated; as a-pó-sta-tis, distance, from apo + statis; or am-bhí-qo-los, servant, from ambhí + qolos. 2.4.4. The semivowels [j], [w] are more stable than sonants when they are syllable centres, i.e. [i] or [u]. However, when they are pronounced lento, they give the allophones (or allosyllables) ij, uw. Examples of alternating forms in PIE include médhijos (cf. Lat. medius), and medhjos (cf. O.Ind. mádhjas or Gk. μέσσος); dwōu, two (cf. Goth. twai, Gk. δω-,), and duwōu (cf. O.Ind. duva, Gk. δύω < *δύϝω, Lat. duo).

2.5. QUANTITY 2.5.1. Syllables are distinguished according to the length of time required for their pronunciation. Two degrees of Quantity are recognized, long and short. NOTE. In syllables, quantity is measured from the beginning of the vowel or diphthong to the end of the syllable. Such distinctions of long and short are not arbitrary and artificial, but are purely natural, a long syllable requiring more time for its pronunciation than a short one.

2.5.3. A syllable is long usually, a. if it contains a long vowel; as, mā-tḗr, mother, kē-lā-jō, hide, b. if it contains a diphthong; as, lai-wós, left, oi-nos, one, c. if it contains any two non-syllabic consonants (except a mute followed by l or r); as, pneu-sō, breathe strongly, tmā-mi, cut. 2.5.4. A syllable is short usually, a. if it contains a short vowel followed by a vowel or by a single consonant; as, pelnis, skin, or e-í-mi, go, b. if it contains a vocalic sonant; as, qṛ-mis, worm, cṃ-tis, march.

121

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

2.6. ACCENT 2.6.1. There are stressed as well as unstressed words. The last could indicate words that are always enclitic, i.e., they are always bound to the accent of the preceding word, as qe, and, -ṛ, for; while another can be proclitics, like prepositions. 2.6.2. The oldest PIE was a stress language in which syllable strength was chiefly a matter of pitch differences and, presumably, of intensity (loudness). NOTE. Following Gąsiorowski, “[i]n this respect it was similar to Spanish or Polish, but not to English with its emphatic ‘expiratory’ stress (…) It thus stood close to the borderline between stress systems and pitch accent systems. Indeed, some linguists have attributed pitch accent contrasts to PIE on the strength of accentual correspondences between Balto-Slavic and Greek. However, scholars such as Jerzy Kuryłowicz and – more recently – Paul Kiparsky have convincingly argued that such contrasts arose independently in the branches in question. The best evidence for the original location of stress in PIE comes from Vedic (Classical Sanskrit developed its own stress system, similar to that of Latin). The location of pitch accent in Classical Greek (especially in Greek noun paradigms) also reflects the PIE stress pattern. There are, to be sure, some specifically Greek constraints on the distribution of pitch accents, but in the environments where such restrictions do not apply, Greek usually agrees with Vedic. In the Germanic languages the original location of stress is sometimes reconstructible thanks to the phonetic ‘fingerprints’ of Verner’s Law. Germanic spectacularly bears out the testimony of Vedic and Classical Greek. Finally, the evolution of pitch-accent systems in Balto-Slavic makes most sense if we adopt the stress system reconstructed on the basis of Vedic, Greek and Germanic as its starting-point”.

2.6.4. The Stress is free, but that does not mean anarchy. On the contrary, it means that each non-clitic word has an accent and only one accent, and one has to know – usually by way of practice – where it goes. Its location depended on the inflectional type to which a given word belonged. NOTE. Indo-European stress is (at least partly) unpredictable. Rather, it is lexical: it comes as part of the word and must be memorized, although orthography can make stress unambiguous for a reader, and some stress patterns are ruled out. Otherwise homophonous words may differ only by the position of the stress, and it is thus possible to use stress as a grammatical device.

2.6.5. Adjectives are often stressed on the ending, especially if they are derivatives; as, ghḷtnós, golden, from ghḷtom, gold, ṇgnōtós, unknown, from gnōskō, know. Nevertheless, nouns and adjective might be stressed on any syllable.

Indo-European Language Association

2. Letters and Sounds NOTE. There are some accent rules to be followed in the declension of nouns and in the conjugation of verbs, which will be later studied.

2.7. VOWEL CHANGE 2.7.1. Vowel Change was common in Proto-Indo-European. In many words the vowel varies because of old alternating forms that gave different derivatives. NOTE. With the creation of zero-grade stems, vocalization appears, as the original radical vowels disappear and new ones are added. That happens, for example, in root bhṛ- [bhr̥], carry, (cognate with English bear), which can be reconstructed from IE languages as bher-, bhor- or bhṛ-. The same can be said of the semivowels [j] and [w] when they are syllable edges, being syllable centres [i] and [u] in zero-grades.

So for example in o-grade domos, house, which gives dómūnos, lord, as Lat. dominus, Skr. dámūnas; but full grade root dem-, which gives demspóts, master, lord, later despot, as Gk. δεσπότης (despótēs), Skr. dampati, Av. dəṇg patōiš, (with fem. demspotnjā). NOTE. The forms attested in Indo-Iranian (and maybe Greek) come from i-stem potis, probably derived from the original Late PIE form dems-póts, cf. ghósti-pots, guest, as Lat. hospēs, hospitis, O.Russ. gospodь<*-ostьpot-; compare, for an original PIE ending -t in compounds, Lat. sacerdōs < MIE sákrodhots, O.Ind. devastút-, “who praises the gods”, etc. The compound is formed with pot-, lord, husband, and pot-njā, mistress, lady.

2.7.2. Different vocalizations appeared in IE dialects in some phonetic environments, especially between two occlusives in zero-grade, impossible to pronounce without adding a vowel; as e.g. skp-, which evolved as Lat. scabo or Got. skaban. NOTE. Although the dialectal solutions to such consonantal groups aren’t unitary, we can find some general PIE timbres. As a, i with a following dental (especially in Gk. and BSl.) or u, also considered general, but probably influenced by the context, possibly when in contact with a labial, guttural or labiovelar.

2.7.3. Sometimes different reconstructions might account for some vowel differences; a for o, as *lawō for lowō, wash; a vocalic sonant for a or e plus sonant, as *Sṃos for Samos, summer, or *kṛwos for kerwos, deer, etc. NOTE. Different reconstructions might be equally valid, depending on the criteria employed. Sometimes different PIE language stages have to be taken into account; as, for root neqt-, night, a

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN common PIH full-grade *neqts is reconstructible, according to Hitt. nekut; however, Late PIE dialects show that an o-grade noun was later generalized; cf. O.Gk. nuks, nuktós, O.Lat. nox, noctis, for an old PIE consonant stem *noqts. The newer i-stem noqtis was the general Late PIE (and later also PII, EIE) form, cf. O.Ind. nakti, Gmc. naxti, Sla. notjь, Bal. nakti.

The phonological reconstruction of Late PIE includes generally the Schwa Indogermanicum, uncertain in sound, which usually stands for an older laryngeal *h2. In North-West IE, PIE reconstructed *ə usually appears as a; as, statis, standing post, from zero-grade *sth2- of root stā- (<steh2-) stay; or patḗr, from older *ph2tér-. NOTE. Other examples are a-stems in *-ī/-jə, from older *-ih2, and neuter plural in *-ə<*-h2.

2.8. CONSONANT CHANGE 2.8.1. Regarding Consonant Change, different reconstructions might appear, too; as, for ghortos, garden, enclosure, later town (cf. Gmc. gardan, Lat. hortus, Gk. khortos, Phry. -gordum, O.Ir. gort, Lith. gardas, O.C.S. gradu, Alb. garth, etc.), some would reconstruct an alternative *ghordhos, so that both forms (in -t- and -dh-) fit perfectly into the schemes of dialectal phonological laws. 2.8.2. The so called s-Mobile (mobile pronounced as in Latin, it is a neuter adjective) refers to the phenomenon of alternating word pairs, with and without s before initial consonants, in stems with similar or identical meaning. This “moveable” prefix s- is always followed by another consonant. Typical combinations are with voiceless stops (s)p-, (s)t-, (s)k-, with liquids and nasals, (s)l-, (s)m-, (s)n-; and rarely (s)w-. NOTE. Examples include (s)ten-, compare O.Ind. stánati, Gk. sténō, O.Eng. stenan, Lith. stenù, O.Sla. stenjo, and without s- in O.Ind. tányati, Gk. Eol. ténnei, Lat. tonare, O.H.G. donar, Cel. Tanaros (name of a river). For (s)pek-, cf. O.Ind. spáśati, Av. spašta, Gk. skopós (<spokós), Lat. spektus, O.H.G. spehon, without s- in O.Ind. páśyati, Alb. pashë. For (s)ker-, cf. O.Ind. ava-, apa-skara-, Gk. skéraphos, O.Ir. scar(a)im, O.N. skera, Lith. skiriù, Illyr. Scardus, Alb. hurdhë (<*skṛd-), without s- in O.Ind. kṛnáti, Av. kərəntaiti, Gk. keíro, Arm. kcorem, Alb. kjëth, Lat. caro, O.Ir. cert, O.N. horund, Lith. kkarnà, O.Sla. korŭcŭ, Hitt. kartai-, and so on.

Such pairs with and without s are found even within the same dialect, as Gk. (s)tégos, “roof”, (s)mikrós, “little”, O.Ind. (s)tṛ, “star”, and so on. NOTE. Some scholars believe it was a prefix in PIE (which would have had a causative value), while others maintain that it is probably caused by assimilations of similar stems – some of them

Indo-European Language Association

2. Letters and Sounds beginning with an s-, and some of them without it. It is possible, however, that the original stem actually had an initial s, and that it was lost by analogy in some situations, because of phonetic changes, probably due to some word compounds where the last -s of the first word assimilated to the first s- of the second one. That helps to explain why both stems (with and without s) are recorded in some languages, and why no regular evolution pattern may be ascertained: so for example in wḷqons spekjont, they saw wolves, becoming wḷqons ‘pekjont. See Adrados (1995).

2.8.3. Before a voiced or aspirated voiced consonant, s was articulated as voiced, by way of assimilation; as, nisdos [‘niz-dos], nest, misdhom [‘miz-dhom], meed, salary, or osdos [‘oz-dos], branch. When s forms a group with sonants there is usually assimilation, but such a trend was sometimes reversed by adding a consonant; as Lat. cerebrum (
2.8.4. Similarly, the manner of articulation of an occlusive usually depends on its environment. Thus, voiced stops turn voiceless in final position; as, pods, foot, gives voiceless O.Ind. pāt, qid gives O.Ind. cit, agtós gives voiceless Gk. ακτος (aktos) or Lat. actus. The same happens with voiced aspirates, as in legh-, lie (cognate to Eng. log), giving Gk. λεκτρον (lektron), Lat. lectus, O.H.G. Lehter. Voiceless occlusives become voiced before voiced consonants; as, zero-grade ped- in Gk. επιβδα (epi-bd-a). 2.8.5. A sequence of two dentals, such as -tt-, -dt-, -tdh-, -ddh-, etc. was eliminated in all Indo-European dialects, but the process of this suppression differed among branches; Vedic Sanskritshowing little change, some others an intermediate -sT-, and others -ss- or -s-. Compounds were not affected by this trend; as, kréd-dhēmi, believe. NOTE. This trend began probably in Late PIE, and thus all IE speakers knew such evolutions, which we sum up into a common intermediate stage -st-, -sdh-, etc., which was followed in some early IE dialects, and probably known to the rest of them. See the section Conventions Used in this Book for more on this question. For phonetic changes in Aryan dialects, see Appendix II.

Examples in MIE are e.g. forms derived from PIE root weid-, know, see, which gave verb widējō, cf. Lat. vidēre, Goth. witan, O.C.S. vidě ti, Lith. pavydéti; p.p. wistós, seen, from wid-tó-, (cf. O.Ind. vitta-, but Av. vista-, O.Pruss. waist, O.Sla. veš tъ, or 125

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

Gmc. wīssaz, Lat. vīsus, O.Gk. ϝιστος, O.Ir. rofess, etc.); noun wistis, sight, vision, from wid-ti-, cf. Goth wizzi, Lat. vīsiō; Greek wistōr, wise, learned man, from wid-tor, cf. Gk. ἵστωρ<*ϝίστωρ (wístōr), PGk wistorjā, history, from Gk. ἱστορία (historía); Imp. wisdhi! know!, from wid-dhí, cf. O.Ind. viddhí, O.Gk. ϝίσθι, O.Lith. veizdi, and so on.

2.9. PECULIARITIES OF ORTHOGRAPHY 2.9.1. Indo-European words may show a variable orthography, although a unified one should be strongly encouraged. 2.9.1. Vowel Changes that influence the way MIE is written include the alternating PIE forms that gave different frozen derivatives. A vowel change that should not affect MIE orthography is what many reconstruct as PIE [ə] or schwa, generally evolved as North-West IE a; as, PIH *ph2tér- → PIE *pətér- → EIE patér-, father; PIH *bhh2tis → PIE *bhətis → EIE bhatis, appearance; PIH *anh2mos → PIE *anəmos → EIE ánamos, breath, and so on. NOTE. This Late PIE reconstructed schwa (see §2.2.1) is important for the different vocalism of EIE, PII and PGk; cf. MIE patér- with Aryan pitár-, or MIE ánamos with Hellenic ánemos.

2.9.2. Consonant Changes that should not affect MIE orthography, already seen, include voiced sibilants, as nisdos [‘niz-dos], kersrom [‘kerz-rom]; and voiceless occlusives, as pods [pots], agtós [ak-‘tos], leghtrom [‘lek-trom], -pd- [bd]. NOTE. Although the accuracy of some allophones in PIE is certain, for practical reasons the phonetically correct notation is therefore avoided in favour of the phonemically correct notation.

Changes that usually affect how MIE is written include commonly reconstructed variants, as egh-, ek-, outside, out, from; and doubious cognates, as necr-, dark, and neqt-, night, maybe from a common PIH suffixed *negw-, to dawn. 2.9.3. About semivowels, as a general exception, they are not written when the semivowel is the last sound of the first word in a compound; e.g., for triathlom (from tri-, three, and Gk. athlon, “contest”), triathlon, we won’t write *trjathlom; sindhueurōpājóm, and not *sindhweurōpājóm; etc. NOTE. In Modern Indo-European, compounds may be written with and without hyphen, as in the different modern Indo-European languages. Nevertheless, the older, not hyphenated version is preferred for formal writings; as, sindhueurōpājóm, and not *sindhu-eurōpājóm, compare

2.9.4. The vocallic allophones [r̥], [l̥], [m̥], [n̥] may be written, as in Latin transliterations of Sanskrit texts, as ṛ, ḷ, ṃ, and ṇ, to help the reader clearly identify the sonants; therefore, alternative writings ṇmṛtós, inmortal, kṃtóm, hundred, wodṛ, water, etc. are also possible. 2.9.5. An Apostrophe is used to mark the ommited letter of a contraction in word-final position, usually in elisions at the end of imperative verbs, especially in spoken language; as cemj’ for cemje, come here; or takej’ for takēje, shut up. 2.9.6. An Acute Accent is written over the vowel or semivowel in the stressed syllable, except when stress is on the second to last syllable (or paenultima) and in monosyllabic words. Accented long vowels and sonants are represented with special characters. The weak vowel of a possible diphthong is also accented; so in eími [e-‘i-mi], I go, and not *eimi, pronounced [‘ei-mi] if left unaccented. 2.9.7. The forms with the copulative -qe, and, and disjunctive -w, or, are usually written by adding it to the preceding word, as in Latin -que, but with a hyphen. 2.9.8. The capital letters are used at the beginning of the following kinds of words: a. the names of days, months, seasons and public holidays; as, Jānwārjos, January, Samos, summer, Newos Atnos, New Year, etc. b. the names of people and places, including stars and planets; as, Sāwel, Sun, Aleksanṓr,

3. WORDS AND THEIR FORMS 3.1. THE PARTS OF SPEECH 3.1.1. Words are divided into eight Parts of Speech: Nouns, Adjectives (including Participles), Pronouns, Verbs, Adverbs, Prepositions, Conjunctions, and Interjections. 3.1.2. A Noun is the name of a person, place, thing or idea; as, Klewopatrā, Cleopatra, dānus, river, dhworis, door, wṛdhom, word. Names of particular persons and places are called Proper Nouns; other nouns are called Common. NOTE. An Abstract Noun is the name of a quality or idea. A Collective Noun is the name of a group or a class.

3.1.3. An Adjective is a word that attributes a quality; as, patrjóm, parental, leukós, bright, kartús, hard, grṇdhís, grown. NOTE 1. A Participle is a word that attributes quality like an adjective, but, being derived from a verb, retains in some degree the power of the verb to assert. NOTE 2. Etymologically there is no difference between a noun and an adjective, both being formed alike. So, too, all names originally attribute quality, and any common name can still be so used. Thus, Regeinā Elísabet II, Queen Elizabeth II, (cf. Gk. Ελισ(σ)αβετ, from Hebrew Elisheva, “God is an oath”), distinguishes this Elizabeth from other Elizabeths, by the attribute expressed in the name Regeinā, Queen.

3.1.4. A Pronoun is a word used to distinguish a person, place, thing or idea without either naming or describing it: as, egṓ, I, tewós, thine, wejes, we. Nouns and pronouns are often called Substantives. 3.1.5. A Verb is a word capable of asserting something: as, bherō, I carry, bear; bhāti, it shines. NOTE. In English the verb is usually the only word that asserts anything, and a verb is therefore supposed to be necessary to complete an assertion. Strictly, however, any adjective or noun may, by attributing a quality or giving a name, make a complete assertion; as, wīrós bhilis (esti), the man is good (decent), unlike bhilis wīrós, the good man; or autom dwenos (esti), the car is

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN good (efficient), unlike dwenos autom, the good car. In the infancy of language there could have been no other means of asserting, as the verb is comparatively of late development.

3.1.6. An Adverb is a word used to express the time, place, or manner of an assertion or attribute: as, per, in front, epi, near, antí, opposite. NOTE. These same functions are often performed in Indo-European by cases of nouns, pronouns and adjectives, and by phrases or sentences.

3.1.7. A Preposition is a word which shows the relation between a noun or pronoun and some other word or words in the same sentence; as, e.g., ad, at, to, dē, from upwards, kom, with, ek(sí), outside, upo, under, and so on. 3.1.8. A Conjunction is a word which connects words, or groups of words, without affecting their grammatical relations: as, -qe, and; -w, or, -ma, but, -r, for. 3.1.9. Interjections are mere exclamations and are not strictly to be classed as parts of speech; as, alā! hello!; ō! O (vocative); wai! alas (grief); ha ha! (laughing sound), or older kha kha! as in khákhatnos, laugh; ha! (surprise); etc. NOTE. Interjections sometimes express an emotion which affects a person or thing mentioned, and so have a grammatical connection like other words.

3.2. INFLECTION 3.2.1. Indo-European is an inflected language. Inflection is a change made in the form of a word to show its grammatical relations. NOTE. Some modern Indo-European languages, like most Germanic and Romance dialects, have lost partly or completely their earliest attested inflection systems – due to different simplification trends –, in nominal declension as well as in verbal conjugation.

3.2.2. Inflectional changes sometimes take place in the body of a word, or at the beginning, but oftener in its termination: bhabhā, the or a bean, snichwós, of the snow, reidhō, I ride, idhi! go! 3.2.3. Terminations of inflection had possibly originally independent meanings which are now obscured. They probably corresponded nearly to the use of prepositions, auxiliaries and personal pronouns in English.

Indo-European Language Association

3. Words and their Forms

Thus, in ghórdejos, of the barley (Gen.), the termination is equivalent to “of the”; in deikō, I show (Indicative), and dikóm, I showed (Aorist), the change of vowel grade and accent signifies a change in the aspect. 3.2.4. Inflectional changes in the body of a verb usually denote relations of tense or mood, and often correspond to the use of auxiliary verbs in English: (tu) déikesi, (thou) show; doike, he showed; (gí)gnṓsketi, he knows, gégona, I knew (see Verbal Inflection for Reduplication and its meaning). 3.2.5. The inflection of Nouns, Adjectives, Pronouns and Participles to denote gender, number and case is called Declension, and these parts of speech are said to be declined. The inflection of Verbs to denote voice, mood, tense, number and person is called Conjugation, and the verb is said to be conjugated. NOTE. Adjectives are often said to have inflections of comparison. These are, however, properly stem-formations made by derivations.

3.2.6. Adverbs, Prepositions, Conjunctions and Interjections are not inflected, and together form the group of the so-called Particles.

3.3. ROOT, STEM AND BASE 3.3.1. The body of a word, to which the terminations are attached, is called the Stem. The Stem contains the idea of the word without relations; but, except in the first part of compounds (e.g. somo-patōr, “of the same father”, sibling, mṇ-dōmi, commit), it cannot ordinarily be used without some termination to express them. NOTE. According to Mallory & Adams (2006): “To the root might be added a variety of suffixes to create a stem and then finally the case endings depending on number and perhaps gender. In some cases, the so-called root-nouns, there are no suffixes before the case ending. Using R for ‘root’, S for ‘stem-creating suffix’, and E for ‘case-number-ending’, we might establish the formula for an inflected word in Proto-Indo-European as R-(S)-E”.

Thus the stem pater- denotes father; patḗr, Nominative, means a father or the father, as the Subject or Agent of an action; patér (or pater) is the Vocative, as in O father!; patérṃ is the means to a father or to the father, as the Direct Object; patrós is the Genitive and indicates of a father or of the father, and so on.

131

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. In inflected languages like Indo-European, words are built up from Roots, which at a very early time were possibly used alone to express ideas. Roots are then modified into Stems, which, by inflection, become fully formed words. The process by which roots are modified, in the various forms of derivatives and compounds, is called stem-building. The whole of this process is originally one of composition, by which significant endings are added one after another to forms capable of pronunciation and conveying a meaning.

3.3.2. A Root is the simplest form attainable by analysis of a word into its component parts. Such a form contains the main idea of the word in a very general sense, and is common also to other words either in the same language or in kindred languages; cf. for stā-, stand, reduplicated present sí-stā-mi, I stand, noun stā-men-, place for standing, zero-grade p.p. sta-tós, placed, standing, or noun sta-tis, erection, standing. For example, the root of verb spekjō, look, is spek-, which does not necessarily mean to look, or I look, or looking, but merely expresses vaguely the idea of looking, and possibly cannot be used as a part of speech without terminations. 3.3.3. The Stem may be the same as the root; as, dō-, give, dakru, tear; but it is more frequently formed from the root. 1. By changing or lengthening its vowel; as, from athematic root verb dā-, divide, common derivative dai-mai, divide up, distribute. 2. By the addition of a simple suffix; as, from root dā-, divide, derivative dā-mos, people, people’s division, cf. Dor. Gk. δημος, O.Ir. dām, Hitt. da-ma-a-iš. NOTE. Some suffixes probably conveyed an earlier underlying meaning, e.g. the suffix -trom tends to indicate an instrument, as arā-trom, plough, from a verb arājō, plough, while kinship names tend to have the suffix -er or -ter, cf. swes-ōr, sister, bhrā-tēr, brother.

3. By two or more of these methods; from the same root, suffixed derivative dai-tis, time, period, cf. Gmc. tīÞ, Arm ti, as well as Gk. δαιτύς, O.Ind. dātu-. 4. By derivation and composition, following the laws of development peculiar to the language, which we will see in the corresponding chapters. 3.3.4. The Base is that part of a word which is unchanged in inflection: as, chorm- in chormos, warm, eus- in eusō, burn; cou- in cōus, cow,etc.

Indo-European Language Association

3. Words and their Forms

a. The Base and the Stem are often identical, as in many The masculine functions as the negative term in the opposition, i.e. when the gender is not defined, the masculine is used. This is a grammatical utility, one that is only relevant for concordance, and which has to do with the evolution of the language and its inflection. The earliest PIE had probably no distinction of gender; when the inanimate appeared, it was marked by a different inflection, and the animates remained as the negative term in the opposition. After that, probably at the same time as the thematic declension (in e/o) appeared, the feminine was differentiated from the remaining animates, with marks like the different stem vowel (usually -a) or vowel length (as -ī, -ū). Therefore, the feminine is the positive term of the opposition within the animates, because when we use it we reduce the spectrum of the animates to the feminine, while the masculine still serves as the negative (non-differentiated) term for both, the general and the animates, when used in this sense, i.e. when not differentiating the masculine from the other genders.

consonant stems of nouns (as eghṛ, boundary). If, however, the stem ends in a vowel, the latter does not appear in the base, but is variously combined with the inflectional termination. Thus the stem of nócodos, naked, is nocod-; that of ceri, mountain, is cer-. 3.3.5. Inflectional terminations are modified differently by combination with the final vowel or consonant of the Stem, and the various forms of Declension and Conjugation are so developed.

3.4. GENDER 3.4.1. The Genders distinguished in Modern IndoEuropean are three: Masculine, Feminine (both are referred to as Animate) and Neuter or Inanimate. 3.4.2. The gender of Indo-European nouns is either natural or grammatical. a. Natural Gender is distinction as to the sex of the object denoted: bhrātēr (m.), brother; cenā (f.), woman, wife. b. Grammatical Gender is a formal distinction as to sex where no actual sex exists in the object. It is shown in the form of the adjective joined with the noun: as swādús noqtis (f.), a pleasant night; mṛghús kanmṇ (m.), brief song. The gender of the adjective is simply a gender of concordance: it indicates to which noun of a concrete gender the adjective refers to.

133

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE 2. Names of classes or collections of persons may be of any gender. For example, wolgos (m.), (common) people, or teutā, people (of a nationality).

3.4.3. The neuter or inanimate gender differs from the other two in inflection, not in the theme vowel. The gender of the animates, on the contrary, is usually marked by the theme vowel, and sometimes by declension, vocalism and accent. 3.4.4. The neuter does not refer to the lack of sex, but to the lack of liveliness or life. Sometimes, however, animates can be designated as inanimates and vice versa. While the distinction between masculine and feminine is usually straightforward, sometimes the attribution of sex is arbitrary; thus, different words for parts of the body are found feminine, as nāsis, nose, kanmā, leg; masculine, as kolsos, neck, armos, arm, upper arm; and neuter, as kaput, head, or genu, knee. 3.4.5. The animate nouns can have: a. An oppositive gender, marked: I. by the lexicon, as in patḗr/mātḗr, father/mother, bhrātēr/swesōr, brother/sister, sūnús/dhugtēr, son/daughter; II. by the stem ending, as in general ekwos/ekwā, horse/mare, or the rare wlqos/wlqīs, wolf/she-wolf, djēus/djewja, sky(-god)/sky-goddess; III. by both at the same time, as in swekros/swekrús, father-in-law-mother-inlaw, wīrós/cenā, man-woman, regs/regeinā, king-queen. b. An autonomous gender, that does not oppose itself to others, as in nāus (f.), ship, pods (m.), foot, egnis (m.), fire, owis (f.), sheep, jewos (n.) or legs (f.), law. c. A common gender, in nouns that are masculine or feminine depending on the context; as, cōus, cow or bull, deuks, leader, ghostis, foreigner. d. An epicene gender, which, although being masculine or feminine, designates both sexes; as, médodiks, doctor, nawāgós, sailor, nemots, enemy, setis, visitor. 3.4.6. The gender of a noun can thus be marked by the stem vowel (or sometimes by inflection), or has to be learnt: it is a feature of a word like any other. In its context, concordance is a new gender mark; a masculine noun has a masculine adjective, and a

3. Words and their Forms

feminine noun a feminine adjective. However, not all adjectives differentiate between masculine and feminine, a lot of them (those in -i-s, -u-s, -ēs, -ōn, and some thematic in -os) are masculine and feminine: only the context, i.e. the noun with which they agree, helps to disambiguate them. This happens also in nouns with a common gender. 3.4.7. Most endings do not indicate gender, as in patḗr and mātḗr. Only by knowing the roots in many cases, or from the context in others, is it possible to determine it. Some of the suffixes determine, though, totally or partially if they are masculine or feminine. These are the following: 1. -os marks masculine when it is opposed to a feminine in -ā or -ī/-ja, as in ekwos/ekwā, deiwos/deiwā, god/goddess, etc. This happens also in adjectives in the same situation, as in newos/newā, bheronts/bherontja. In isolated nouns, -os is generally masculine, but some traces of the old indistinctness of gender still remained in Late PIE, as in the names of trees (among others). In adjectives, when the ending -os is not opposed to feminine, concordance decides. 2. -ā marks the feminine in oppositions of nouns and adjectives. It is usually also feminine in isolated nouns, in the first declension. But there are also some masculines in -ā; as, sloughā, servant, cf. O.Sla. slŭga, Lith. slauga “service”, O.Ir. sluag, “army unit”, etc. 3. -ī/-ja (<*-ih2), although feminine in Late PIE, shows remains of its old AbstractCollective value, as neuter plural. It appears in nouns, adjectives and pronouns. 4. Roots ending in long vowels -ī and -ū are always feminines.

3.5. GENERAL RULES OF GENDER 3.5.1. Names of Male beings, and of Rivers, Winds, Months, and Mountains are masculine: patḗr, father, Góralos, Charles, Reinos, the Rhine, Áusteros, south wind, Magjos, May, Urales, the Urals. NOTE. For Uralisk Cerja, Ural Mountains, cf. Russ. Ура́льские го́ры (Uralskiye gory).

a. A few names of Rivers ending in -ā (as Wolgā), and many Greek names ending in ē(s), which usually corresponds to IE -ā, are feminine; others are variable or uncertain, generally retaining their oldest attested IE gender in MIE. 135

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

b. Some names of Mountains are feminines or neuter: as, Alpes (f. pl.), the Alps. 3.5.2. Names of Female beings, of many Cities, Countries, Plants, Trees, Gems, Animals, and abstract Qualities, are feminine: mātḗr, mother, Djówiljā, Julia, Frankjā, France, Rōmā, Rome, bharwos, pinetree, saniprijós, sapphire (Gk. sáppheiros, ult. from Skr. sani-priyaḥ, lit. “sacred to Saturn”), aqamarin, aquamarine, wērā, true. a. Some names of Towns and Countries are masculine: as, Kṛsnomontis, Montenegro; or neuter, as, Jugtóm Regnom, United Kingdom, Swjoregnom, Kingdom of Sweden, Finnlondhom, Finland. b A few names of Plants and Gems follow the gender of their termination; as, kṃtaurjom (n.), centaury, úpolos (m.), opal. NOTE. The gender of most of the above may also be recognized by the terminations, according to the rules given under the different declensions.

3.5.3. Indeclinable nouns, infinitives, terms or phrases used as nouns, and words quoted merely for their form, are neuter: sestum (<sed-tu-) to sit, be sitting, “wétānom smeughtum”, “smoking prohibited”; gummi, gum. NOTE. Eng. gum comes from O.Fr. gomme, from L.Lat. gumma, from Lat. gummi, from Gk. kommi, from Coptic kemai, hence MIE loan gummi, PGk. kommi.

3.5.4. Nouns, Pronouns, Adjectives and Participles are declined in MIE in two Numbers, singular and plural – Late PIE had also possibly a dialectal dual – and up to eight cases, Nominative, Vocative, Accusative, Genitive and Oblique - which is found subdivided into combinations of Dative, Locative, Instrumental and Ablative. NOTE 1. European dialects show around six cases, but most of the oldest attested ones (PII, PGk, Ita.) and Balto-Slavic show remains of up to eight original cases. Even though the situation has evolved differently due to migrations and linguistic contacts, linguists generally agree that the most securely reconstructed are the nominative, vocative, accusative, and genitive of the singular and plural. Traditional theories maintain that the original common PIE situation is a complex system of eight noun cases. On the contrary, a five-case system is for other scholars the oldest situation (of Middle PIE, as Anatolian dialects apparently show), later changed by Late PIE by way of merging or splitting the five original cases. An eight-case system would have been, then, an innovation of individual dialects, just as the phonetic satemization. It is thus a general opinion

Indo-European Language Association

3. Words and their Forms that already in Late PIE both trends (split and convergence of Obliques) coexisted. In this MIE Grammar we follow the general, oldest trend, i.e. an eight-case inflection system, due to the findings in North-West IE. NOTE 2. In the number we use singular and plural, and not dual, not only because of its doubtful existence in IE II and the objections to its reconstruction for Late PIE, but because it is also more practical in terms of modern Indo-European languages.

I. The Nominative is the case of the Subject of a sentence. II. The Vocative is the case of Direct Address. III. The Accusative is the case of the Direct Object of a verb. It is used also with many prepositions. IV. The Genitive may generally be translated by the English Possessive, or by the Objective with the preposition of. V. The Obliques might be found as: a. The Dative, the case of the Indirect Object. It may usually be translated into English by the Objective with the preposition to or for. b. The Locative, the place where. c. The Instrumental, the thing with. d. The Ablative, usually the Objective with from, by, with, in or at. It is often found with prepositions. NOTE. The oblique cases appear in the English pronoun set; these pronouns are often called objective pronouns; as in she loves me (accusative), give it to me (dative) or that dirt wasn’t wiped with me (instrumental), where me is not inflected differently in any of these uses; it is used for all grammatical relationships except the genitive case of possession and a non-disjunctive nominative case as the subject.

3.6. VOWEL GRADE 3.6.1. The vowel grade or Ablaut is normally the alternation between full, zero or lengthened grade vocalism. Proto-Indo-Eropean had a regular ablaut sequence that contrasted the five usual vowel sounds called Thematic, i.e. e/ē/o/ō/Ø. This means that in different forms of the same word, or in different but related words, the basic vowel, a

137

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

short e, could be replaced by a long ē, a short o or a long ō, or it could be omitted (transcribed as Ø). NOTE. The term Ablaut comes from Ger. Abstufung der Laute, ‘vowel alternation’. In Romance languages, the term Apophony is preferred.

3.6.2. When a syllable had a short e, it is said to be in the “e grade”; when it had no vowel, it is said to be in the “zero grade”, when in o, in “o grade”, and they can also be “lengthened”. The e-grade is sometimes called “full grade”. A classic example of the five grades of ablaut in a single root is provided by the following different case forms of EIE patḗr, father, and ṇpatōr, fatherless. Ablaut grade

Another example of the common Ablaut is t-stem nepot-, grandson, which gives lengthened grade Nominative, nep-ōts, full-grade Genitive nép-ot-os, and zero-grade feminine nep-t-is, grand-daughter. The study of declensions and practice with vocabulary should help the reader learn such special genitives.

3. Words and their Forms

3.6.4. There are also some other possible vowel grade changes, as a-grade, i-grade and u-grade, which usually come from old root endings, rather than from systematized phonetic changes. NOTE. It seems that the alternation full-grade/zero-grade in PIH was dependent on the accent. Compare klewos/klutós, eími/imés, patérṃ/patrós, etc., where the unstressed morpheme loses its vowel. This happens only in the oldest formations, though, as Late PIE had probably lost this morphological pattern, freezing such older alternations and creating a new (more stable) vocabulary without changes in vowel grade.

3.7. WORD FORMATION 3.7.1. Word Formation refers to the creation of new words from older ones. IndoEuropean scholars show an especial interest in Derivational Affixes (most commonly Suffixes), i.e. morphemes that are attached to a base morpheme, such as a Root or a Stem, to form a new word. The main affixes are as follows. 3.7.2. Athematic suffixes: a. The most simple is the zero-ending, i.e. full-grade root nouns like dem-s (Gk. des), house, in consonant, as neq-t-s (Hitt. nekuz), night, or men-s (Av. maz-), mind, in r, as ghes-ōr (Hitt. kiššar), hand, with apophony, Ac. ghes-er-ṃ (Hitt. kiššeran), Loc. ghes-r-i (Hitt. kišri, Gk. kheirí), with ending -n, as or-ōn (Hitt. ḫara[š], stem ḫaran-, from PIH *h3or-o-, cf. O.H.G. aro, Eng. erne, Gk. or-n-[is]), eagle. Common examples include regs, as Lat. rex, Cel. ri, Gmc. rīh, Skr. rāt, cōus, as Lat. bou, Cel. bó, Gmc. ko, Skr. gáu/go, mūs, Lat. mūs, Gk. μῦς, Gmc. mūs, Sla. mys, Skr. mū, etc. b. Also, the stem r/n, with -r- in ‘strong’ cases (Nom-Acc.) and -n- in the Obliques, is well represented in Anatolian; see Variable Nouns in the next chapter for more on these so-called heteroclites. c. An old stem in -u- appears e.g. in the words gon-u, knee, dor-u, wood, and oj-u, lifetime, cf. Av. zānū, dārū, āiiū, Skr. jnu, dru, yu, Gk. góny, dóry, ou(kí), “no”, etc. Apophonic variants are found as full-grade genu-, deru-, eju-, cf. Hitt. genu-, Lat. genu-, Sla. dérw-o, Gk. ai(w)-eí, etc., and as zero-grade gn-eu, dr-eu, j-eu-, as in Goth. kniu, Av. yaoš, Hitt. ganu-t, etc. Such zero-grades are found within Declension, in Composition (cf. Skr. jñu-bādh-, “kneeled”, Gk. dru-tómos, “timber-cutter”), and in Derivation, as e.g. ju-wen-, vigorous, young (cf. Skr. yuván-, Lat. iuuen-is). 139

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

d. A suffix -it-, which refers to edible substances, as mel-it, honey (cf. Gk. mélit-, Hitt. milit, Luw. mallit, Gmc. mil-), sep-it, wheat (cf. Hitt. šeppit, Gk. álphit), etc. 3.7.3. Feminine and Abstract (Collectives): a. A general PIH suffix *-(e)h2 is found in Feminine, as in senā, old (<seneh2, cf. Gk. hénē, Skr. śanā-, Lith. senà), swekrús, mother-in-law (<swekrúh2-, cf. O.Sla. svekrŭ, Lat. socrus, O.H.G. swigar), in Abstract Collectives, as in Gk. tom, cut, or neur, rope made from sinew (cf. neurom, Eng. neuron), etc., and in the Nom.-Acc. Neuter singular of the collective that functions as Nom.-Acc. Plural (cf. Skr. yug, Gk. zygá, Lat. iuga, Goth. juka, “jokes”, Hitt. -a, Pal. -a/-ā, etc.). b. The Feminine and Abstract Collective PIH *-ih2 gives two alternative phonetic outputs in Late PIE, represented *-jə and (contracted) *-ī, written and pronounced as MIE -ja (not to be confused with general -jā, from PIH *-jeh2) and -ī; cf. Skr. dev (Gen. dḗvyās), “goddess”, etc. NOTE. According to Mallory & Adams (2006), “[t]he fact that Proto-Indo-European also forms collectives in *-h2- (e.g. the Hittite collective alpa, ‘group of clouds’ from a singular alpeš, ‘cloud’) has suggested that this was its original use and that it later developed the specifically feminine meaning”. Abstract nouns are usually built in PIE with suffix -tāt; as, kommoinitts, community, solwotāts, totality, áiwotāts, eternity, etc.

3.7.4. Thematic Suffixes, the most abundant affixes found in PIE Nominal and Adjectival derivation: a. A simple -o-, which appears in some primary and secondary old formations, as wḷqo-s, wolf, ṛtko-s, bear, neuters jug-ó-m, joke, werg-o-m, work, adjectives seno-, old, new-o-, new, etc. NOTE. The Distinction into primary and secondary is not straightforward, unless there is an older root attested; compare e.g. PIE ekw-os, horse, which has been deemed a derivation from PIH h1ek-, “quick”, the root behind adjective ōkús.

Accented -ó- is deemed a secondary suffix which marks the possession of the base, as well as adjectives in -ó- with lengthened grade root, cf. PIE cjā, bow’s string, as Skr. jyá, but cjos, bow (< “that has a bow’s string”), as Gk. biós, or *swekrós (>swekros), father-in-law, from swekrús, mother-in-law, *deiwós (>deiwos), from djēus, etc. b. About the Root Grade, o-grade roots are found in two thematic types, barytone Action Nouns (cf. Gk. tomos, “slice”), and oxytones Agent Nouns and Adjectives (cf. Indo-European Language Association

3. Words and their Forms

Gk. tomós, “who cuts, acute”), both from PIE tem-, cut; zero-grade in neuters jugóm, joke, from jeug-, join, and in second elements of compounds like ni-sd-os, nest, from sed, sit, or newo-gn-ós, “newborn”, as Gk. neognós. c. Adjectival suffixes -jo- and -ijo- have a relational sense, as in cow-jós, “of a cow/ox”, from cow-, cow, ox, as in Av. gaoya-, Skr. gavyá or gávya, Gk. hekatómboios, “that costs a hundred cows”, Arm. kogi (
141

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

h. There are some instrumental suffixes, as -tro-, -tlo-, -klo-, -dhro-, -dhlo-, as Lat. -trum, -c(u)lum, -brum, -bulum, etc.; e.g. arā-trom, plough, cf. Gk. árotron, Lat. aratrum, O.Ir. arathar, Welsh aradr, Arm. arawr, Lith. árklas, etc.; also, Gk. báthron, O.Ind. bharítram, Goth. fōdr, etc. i. Other common suffixes (also participial) are -men-, -mon-, -mn-, with secondary mn-to-, -men-o-, -men-t- (and -wen-, v.s.), etc., cf. Lat. augmentum, or Goth. hliumant, equivalent to O.Ind. śrómatam, both meaning “reputation”, from kleu-, hear, and so on. NOTE. Detailed information on Proto-Indo-European word morphology with dialectal examples is in Appendix III.3, and online at .

3.8. COMPOUND WORDS 3.8.1. Nominal Compositum or nominal composition is the process of putting two or more words together to form another word. The new word, called a Compound Word, is either a Noun or an Adjective, and it does not necessarily have the same meaning as its parts. 3.8.2. The second term of a Compound Word may be a) a Noun (Gk. akró-polis, “high city, citadel”) b) an Adjective (Gk. theo-eíkelos, “similar to the gods”) or c) a Noun adapted to the adjectival inflection (Gk. arguró-tozos, “silver arc”) NOTE. Sometimes a suffix is added (cf. Gk. en-neá-boios, “of nine cows”), and the Compound Noun may have a different gender than the second term (cf. Lat. triuium, “cross roads”, from trēs and uia).

3.8.3. The first term is a Pure Stem, without distinction of word class, gender or number. It may be an Adverb, a Numeral (Gk. trí-llistos, “supplicated three times”, polúllistos, “very supplicated”) or a Pronoun (cf. O.Ind. tat-puruṣa, “that man”), as well as a Nominal-Verbal stem with Nominal (Gk. andra-phónos, “who kills a man”), Adjetival (Gk. akró-polis), or Verbal function (Gk. arkhé-kakos, “who begins the evil”), and also an Adjective proper (Gk. polú-tropos, “of many resources”). 3.8.4. Usually, the first term has zero-grade, cf. O.Ind. ṇr-hán, Gk. polú-tropos, Lat. aui-(caps), etc. Common exceptions are stems in -e/os, as Gk. sakés-palos, “who shakes the shield” (Gk. sákos, “shield”), and some suffixes which are substituted by a Indo-European Language Association

3. Words and their Forms

lengthening in -i, cf. Gk. kudi-áneira, “who glorifies men” (Gk. kudrós), Av. bərəzičaxra-, “of high wheels” (Av. bərəzant-). In Thematic stems, however, the thematic -e/o appears always, as an o if Noun or Adjective (Gk. akró-polis), as an e if Verb (Gk. arkhé-kakos). 3.8.5. The first term usually defines the second, the contrary is rare; the main Compound types are: A. Formed by Verbs, cf. O.Ind. ṇr-hán, Gk. andra-phónos (Gk. andro- is newer) Lat. auceps, O.Sla. medv-ĕdĭ, “honey-eater”, bear, and also with the second term defining the first, as Gk. arkhé-kakos. B. Nominal Determiners (first term defines the second), with first term Noun (cf. Gk. mētro-pátōr,

“mother’s father”, Goth. þiudan-gardi, “kingdom”), Adective (cf. Gk.

akró-polis, O.Sla. dobro-godŭ, “good time”, O.Ir. find-airgit, “white plant”, Lat. angiportus, “narrow pass”), or Numeral (cf. Lat. tri-uium, from uia, Gk. ámaza, “chariot frame”, from ázōn). C. Adjectival Determiners (tatpuruṣa- for Indian grammarians), with first term Noun (cf. Gk. theo-eíkelos, Goth. gasti-gods “good for the guests”), Adverb (cf. O.Ind. ájñātas, Gk. ágnotos, “unknown”, phroudos, “who is on its way”, from pró and odós). D. Possessive Compounds (bahu-vrihi-, “which has a lot of rice”, for Indian grammarians), as in Eng. barefoot, “(who goes) with bare feet”, with the first term Noun (cf. Gk. arguró-tozos, O.Sla. črŭno-vladŭ, “of black hair”), Adjective (cf. Lat. magnanimus, “of great spirit”), Adverb (cf. O.Ind. durmans, GK. dus-menḗs, “wicked”). The accent could also distinguish Determiners from Possessives, as in O.Ind. rājaputrás, “a king’s son”, from O.Ind. rajá-putras, “who has a son as king, king’s father”.

3.9. NAMES OF PERSONS The use of two-word compounds for personal names was common in PIE; as, Suklewos, of good fame, with cognates found in poetic diction, cf. Gk. Eukleḗs, and Skr. Suśráva-, or Illyr. Vescleves-. NOTE. The use of two-word compound words for personal names is common in IE languages. They are found in in Ger. Alf-red, “elf-counsel”, O.H.G. Hlude-rīch, “rich in glory”, O.Eng. Godgifu, “gift of God” (Eng. Godiva), Gaul. Orgeto-rix, “king who harms”, Gaul. Dumno-rix, “king of the world”, Gaul. Epo-pennus, “horse’s head”, O.Ir. Cin-néide (Eng. Kennedy) “ugly head”, O.Ind.

143

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN Asva-ghosa, “tamer of horses”, O.Ind. Asvá-medhas, “who has done the horse sacrifice”, O.Pers. Xša-yāršā (Gk. Xérxēs) “ruler of heroes”, O.Pers. Arta-xšacā, “whose reign is through truth/law”, Gk. Sō-krátēs, “good ruler”, Gk. Mene-ptólemos, “who faces war”, Gk. Hipp-archus, “horse master”, Gk. Cleo-patra, Pátro-klos, “from famous lineage”, Gk. Arkhé-laos, “who governs the people”, O.Sla. Bogu-milŭ, “loved by god”, Sla. Vladi-mir, “peaceful ruler”, from volodimirom, “possess the world”; etc. Individual names may further be modified through the use of suffixes to form hypocorisms.

Other area in which it is suspected the retention of ancient Proto-Indo-European personal names is the use of animal names or numerals, composed of one stem; as Wḷqos, wolf, cf. O.Ir. Olc, O.Eng. Wulf, Gk. Lukos, Skr. Vŕka; or, Qétwṛtos, fourth, cf. Lat. Quārta, Lith. Keturai, Russ. Četvertoj, Gk. Tetartíōn. NOTE. The word for ‘name’ and possible Indo-European names can be found in Beekes (1987), Markey (1981), Pinault (1982), Schmitt (1973), and Watkins (1970).

Further, the syntactical indication of the father’s name also dates from Proto-IndoEuropean, whether by adding the name of the father in the genitive, in the sense of ‘son of X’, or by adding a possessive adjective that is derived from the name of the father. NOTE 1. An example of the former is Hadubrand Heribrandes suno; an example of the later is Myc. a-re-ku-tu-ru-wo e-te-wo-ke-re-we-i-jo, i.e. Alektruwōn Etewoklewehijos, “Alektruwōn, son of Etewoklewēs”, or Russ. Nikolaj Sergejevich. Patronymics ending in -ios (later -ius) led to what is called the nomine gentile in Rome, cf. Gaius Iulius Caesar with Gaius = praenomen < individual name, Iulius = nomen gentile < patronymic and Caesar = cognomen.

When considering the giving of names to individuals, one departs generally from the basis of the free men. NOTE. Whereas the man is addressed using the individual name, a simple ‘oh woman’ suffices in the case of woman. “The woman is treated more as a typus, the man as an individual”. Wackernagel (1969) makes clear that the same forms of address were adopted for interactions with the gods. To say that the Indo-Europeans were not very different from the Romans and Greeks would not likely be too far from the mark. In Rome, women generally carried only the nomen gentile, cf. Cornelia, Julia, etc. In the case of the Greeks, most names of women are simply feminine forms of masculine names of individuals, e.g. Myc. a-re-ka-sa-da-ra, i.e Aleksandrā (corresponding to Aleks-anōr, “who fights off men”), Hom. Andromákhē, from Andrómakhos, “who fights with men”, etc. (Meier-Brügger 2003).

Indo-European Language Association

4. NOUNS 4.1. DECLENSION OF NOUNS 4.1.1. Declension is made by adding terminations to different stem endings, vowel or consonant. The various phonetic changes in the language have given rise to the different declensions. Most of the case-endings, as shown in this Modern Indo-European grammar, contain also the final letter of the stem. Adjectives are generally declined like nouns, and are etymologically to be classed with them, but they have some peculiarities of inflection which will be later explained. 4.1.2. Nouns and adjectives are inflected in four regular Declensions, distinguished by their final phonemes – characteristic of the Stem –, and by the opposition of different forms in irregular nouns. They are numbered following Graeco-Latin tradition: First or a-Declension, Second or o-Declension, Third or i/u-Declension, Fourth or Consonant Declension, and the variable nouns. NOTE. The Second or o-Declension is also the Thematic Declension, opposed to the rest – and probably older in the evolution of PIE nominal inflection –, which form together the Athematic Declension.

The Stem of a noun may be found, if a consonant stem, by omitting the case-ending; if a vowel stem, by substituting for the case-ending the characteristic vowel. NOTE. Most Indo-Europeanists tend to distinguish at least two major types of declension for the oldest PIE, Thematic and Athematic. Thematic nominal stems are formed with a suffix -o- (in vocative -e), and the stem does not undergo ablaut. The Athematic stems are more archaic, and

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN they are classified further by their ablaut behaviour: acro-dynamic, protero-dynamic, hysterodynamic and holo-dynamic, after the positioning of the early PIE accent in the paradigm. For more on this, see Beekes (1995) and Meier-Brügger (2003).

4.1.3. The following are General Rules of Declension: a. The Nominative singular for animates ends in -s when the stem endings are i, u, ī, ū, Diphthong, Occlusive and Thematic (-os), or -Ø in ā, Sonant and s; while in the plural es is general, -s for those in ā, and -os for the Thematic ones. b. The Accusative singular of all masculines and feminines ends in -m or -ṃ (after consonant), the Accusative plural in -ns or -ṇs. c. The Vocative singular for animates is always -Ø, and in the plural it is identical to the Nominative. d. The Genitive singular is common to animates and inanimates, it is formed with -s: s, -es, -os. A very old alternative possibility is extended -os-jo. The Genitive plural is formed in -ōm, and in -ām in a-stems. e. The Obliques singular end usually in -i: it can be -i, -ei, -ēi, -oi, -ōi or -āi, and their extensions. In the plural, there are two series of declensions, Instr. -bhis/-mis (from Sg. -bhi), Dat.-Abl. -bhos/-mos (PII -bhjas) as well as (BSl. and PII) Loc. in -su, Gk. -si. NOTE. Meier-Brügger (2003) considers that “[e]vidence seems to indicate that while the dative and ablative plural were marked with *-mos, the instrumental plural was marked with *-bhi” in PIH, and similarly Mallory & Adams (2006) differentiate for the oldest PIE declension a Dat. mus, instrumental -bhi, and Abl. -bh(j)os. Comparison shows an Ins. Sg. -bhi, (cf. Gk. -phi, Myc pi, and also Arm. Ins. marb), BSl. -mi (cf. Lith. akmenimì, O.C.S. kamenĭmĭ) and for North-West IE dialects a division between Italic+Celtic and Germanic+Balto-Slavic Plural forms: Celtic shows traces of an Instrumental -bhis (cf. O.Ir. Dat.-Loc.-Inst.-Abl. cridib, and in Graeco-Aryan O.Ind. sūnúbhis, Av. bāzubīs, Arm. srtiwkh), Italic and Celtic show a Dat.-Abl. -bhos (cf. Celtiberian Dat.-Loc.-Inst.-Abl. arecoraticubos, Lat. matribus, Osc. luisarifs), while Balto-Slavic shows Inst. mis (cf. Lith. sunumìs, O.C.S. synumĭ), Dat.-Abl. -mos (cf. O.C.S. synŭmŭ, Lith. sūnùms, sūnùmus), and Germanic shows a Dat.-Abl.-Inst. -m-. Also, Indo-Iranian -bhjas (<*-bhjos), according to Meier-Brügger, “can thus be regarded as a cross between the instrumental *-bhi and the dative/ablative *-mos”. Even if some might consider these data enough to draw conclusions about a well-differentiated common PIH plural declension system, we think it is more appropriate to maintain in MIE the (conservative) reconstructible North-West IE West/East dialectal

4. Nouns differentiation, i.e. Dat.-Abl. -bhos/-mos (PII -bhjas), and Instr. -bhis/-mis, without using any of those assimilation theories proposed, as e.g. PIE Inst. *-m- → dialectal *-bh-.

f. Inanimates have a syncretic form for Nom.-Ac.-Voc. -Ø in Athematic, or -m in Thematic. The plural forms end in -ā in thematics and -a in athematics. NOTE. About the nominative/accusative neuter plural, Meier-Brügger states: “in terms of content, the idea of a collective mass is certainly dominant. Therefore, the collective suffix (= athematic *-h2- and thematic *-e-h2-) is used, no ending (zero) added (…) The understanding of the neuter plural as collective explains the ancient IE characteristic, observable in isolated cases, of combination of the neuter plural and the singular of a verb (…)”.

g. All Animates have the same form in the plural for Nom.-Voc., in -es. 4.1.4. The so-called Oblique cases – opposed to the Straight ones, Nom.-Acc.-Voc –, are Genitive and the Obliques proper, i.e. Dative, Locative, Instrumental and Ablative. IE languages show an irregular Oblique declension system. NOTE. Sanskrit or Avestan had 8 cases, Anatolian and Italic dialects show up to 8 (cf. Osc. Loc. aasai for Lat. ‘in ārā’, or Ins. cadeis amnud for Lat. ‘inimicitiae causae’, preiuatud for Lat. ‘prīuātō’, etc.), while Latin shows six and a semisystematic Locative notion; Balto-Slavic shows seven, Mycenaean at least six cases, while Koiné Greek and Proto-Germanic had five.

4.2. FIRST DECLENSION 4.2.1. FIRST DECLENSION PARADIGM 1. They are usually Animate nouns and end in ā (or jā), and rarely in ja/ī, ē, and ō. Those in ā are very common, generally feminine in nouns and always in adjectives, and they are used to make feminines in the adjectival Motion. Those in ja/ī are rare, generally feminine, and etymologically identical to the Neuter plural in Nom.-Acc.-Voc. Those in ō and ē are feminine only in lesser used words. NOTE. The entire stem could have been reduced to MIE a (hence a-Declension), because this is the origin of the whole PIE stem system in PIH, the ending *-(e)h2. See §3.7.3.

2. MIE First Declension corresponds loosely to the Latin First Declension (cf. Lat. rosa, rosae, or puella, puellae), and to the Ancient Greek Alpha Declension (cf. Gk. χώρᾱ, χώρᾱς, or τῑμή, τῑμῆς). a-Declension Paradigm Animate NOM.

NOTE. This declension in ā, older *-eh2, is usually reconstructed in the Singular as from older PIH Nom.-Vocc. *-eh2, Acc. *-eh2m, Gen.(-Abl.) *-eh2os, Dat. *-eh2ei, Loc. *-eh2i, Ins. *-eh2eh1 or *eh2bhi, Abl. *-eh2ed; as, Dat. *h1ekweh2ei → ekwāi.

3. It is therefore identical to those nouns in r, n, s of the Fourth Declension, but for some details in vocalism: the Gen. has an -s and not -es/-os; the difference between Nom. and Voc. is that of -ā and -a. The zero-grade of the Nom.-Acc.-Voc. in ja/ī stems is different from the Gen. in -jā.

4.2.2. FIRST DECLENSION IN EXAMPLES 1. Nominative Singular in -Ø; as, ekwā, mare, deiwā, goddess, patrjā, fatherland, adj. cowij, bovine. Examples of ja/ī include potnja/potnī, lady, mistress, djewja/djewī, (sky) goddess. NOTE. Even though ja/ī was known to Late PIE speakers, those are rarely seen in North-West IE, and consequently they are usually MIE -jā; as, MIE potnjā.

Those in ē, ō, also rare, make the Nominative in -s; as, bhidhēs, from Lat. fides (but cf. O.Lat. fidis), trust, spekjēs, species, etc. 2. Accusative Singular in -m; as, ekwām, patrjām, potnjam/potnīm, spekjēm. 3. Vocative Singular in -Ø. It is normally identical to the Nominative, but disambiguation could happen with distinct vowel grades, i.e. Nom. in -ā, Voc. in -a. 4. Genitive Singular in -s; as, ekwās, patrjās, spekjēs. The theme in ja/ī produces a Genitive Singular in -ās; as, potnjās. 5. Dative-Ablative Singular in -āi, ekwāi, patrjāi. NOTE. It comes probably from an older PIE general Dat. *-ei ending; as, *h1ekweh2-ei → ekwāi.

There is also a form -ei for themes in ē and in ja/ī. 6. Locative in -āi; as, ekwāi, patrjāi. 7. Instrumental in -Ø, -ā-bhi/-ā-mi; as, ékwābhi, pátrjāmi. f. ekwā

4.3. SECOND DECLENSION 4.3.1. SECOND DECLENSION PARADIGM 1. The Stem of nouns of the Second Declension ends in e/o, and they are usually called Thematic. They can be animates and inanimates, as well as adjectives. The inanimates have an ending -m only in Nom.-Acc.-Voc. The animates, with a Nominative in -s, are generally masculine in nouns and adjectives, but there are also feminine nouns and animate adjectives in -os, probably remains of the old indistinctness of declension. NOTE. The o-Declension is probably very recent in PIE – even though it happened already in PIH, before the Proto-Anatolian split – and that’s why it is homogeneous in most IE dialects. As Mallory & Adams (2006) say, “[t]he o-stems were the most productive form of declension. By this is meant that through time, especially at the end of the Proto-Indo-European period and into the early histories of the individual Indo-European languages, the o-stems appeared to proliferate and replace other stem types. In Vedic Sanskrit, for example, they constitute more than half of all nouns. High productivity is often interpreted as evidence that the o-stems are a later declensional form than many of the other stems. Highly productive forms are ultimately capable of replacing many other forms as they provide the most active model by which speakers might decline a form”.

2. MIE Second Declension is equivalent to the Second Declension in Latin (cf. Lat. dominus, dominī, or uinum, uinī), and to the Omicron Declension in Greek (cf. Gk. λόγος, λόγου, or δῶρον, δῶρου). o-Declension Paradigm Animate NOM.

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE 1. This model could have been written without the initial vowel -o-, because the probable origin of this vowel is the ending vowel of some thematic stems, while other, primitive athematic stems were reinterpreted, and an -o- was added to their stems by way of analogy. So, this paradigm could be read Nom. -s, Acc. -m, Gen. -s, -sjo, -so, and so on. NOTE 2. The thematic declension is usually reconstructed in the Singular as from older PIH Nom. *-os, Voc. *-e, Acc. *-om (neu. Nom.-Voc.-Acc. *-om), Gen. *-os, Dat. *-ōi (<*-o-ei), Loc. *oi, Ins. *-oh1, Abl. *-ōd (<-o-ed); as, Dat. *wl̥kwo-ei → wḷqōi, Abl. *wl̥kwo-ed → wḷqōd.

This disambiguation happens by alternatively lengthening the ending, as -os-jo (or e/os-o) or changing it altogether, as in -ī.

NOTE 1. The so-called common, basic or athematic paradigm, the hypothetically oldest attainable PIE noun declension system, is reconstructed in the Singular as Nom. *-Ø, *-s, Acc. *-m, Voc. *-Ø, Gen.(-Abl.) *-(é/o)s, Dat. *-ei, Loc. *-Ø, *-i, Ins. *-(é)h1, Abl. *-(e)d. This was a paradigm common to the i/u and Consonant declension (v.i.), and it was probably inherited (and innovated) by the first and second declensions. NOTE 2. Reduplication or combination with the alternating endings -i, -ei/-oi and -u, -eu/-ou, was a common resort in the attested dialects that distinguished Dat. and Loc. in this declension, as in -i-ei, -ei-ei, -eu-ei, and so on, to differentiate similar forms.

3. The animates in i and u are masculine or feminine (indifferent to the distinction in adjectives); those in ī and ū, always feminine. 4. The -s can indicate Nominative and Genitive: the distinction is made through the full-grade of the vowel before the declension, i.e. Type I (older) Gen. -ei-s (or oi-s) for i, -eu-s (or ou-s) for u; Type II (newer) in -(e)i-os, -(e)u-os. NOTE. The Vocative of the animates is the same as the Nom.-Acc.-Voc. of the inanimates.

In zero grade Genitives there are forms with -i- or -ij- or -u- or -uw-, depending on the diphthongs. NOTE 1. Some secondary formations – especially found in Greek – are so declined, in -eus, euos as in Av. bāzāus, Arm.,Gk. Basileus, possibly from PIE -āus (Perpillou, 1973) but Beekes (2007) considers it Pre-Greek. NOTE 2. Stang’s law governs the word-final sequences of a vowel + semivowel j or w + nasal, simplified in PIE so that semivowels are dropped, with compensatory lengthening of a preceding vowel, i.e. VwM,VjM → VːM; as, djēm, not *djewm̥; cōm, not *gwowm̥, cōns, not *gwown̥s, etc.

A similar trend is found with laryngeals, *Vh₂m > VːM; as, sūm, also attested as suwṃ, etc.

NOTE. A general Accusative Plural ending -ns (-ṇs after consonant) is usually reconstructed for Late PIE, because e.g. with the -u- stem PIE *-u-ns, descendents in early IE languages show *-uns, *-ūns, *-ūs; cf. Goth. sununs, O.Ind. sūnū́n, Gk. υἱυνς, Lith. sū́nus, O.C.S. syny, Lat. manūs. See H. Rix (FS Risch 1986 p. 586-590). Most scholars also posit an original, older *-ms form (a logical accusative singular -m- plus the plural mark -s), but they usually prefer to reconstruct the attested -ns, thus (implicitly) suggesting an intermediate phase common to all proto-languages in a Late PIE stage, i.e. PIH *-ms → Late PIE *-ns. For a PIH *-ms, cf. maybe Hitt. -uš (Ottinger 1979), but Lyc -s (<*-ns?). To be consistent with decisions taken elsewhere in this grammar (as e.g. reconstructed PIE -TT- as MIE intermediate -sT-, see §2.8.5), the intermediate, attested -ns is the conservative choice, whereas *-ms is just a quite certain hypothesis about its origin.

2. Unlike in the Singular, in which only some Nominatives have an -s, in Nom.-Voc. Plural the -s is general, and there is always one fix-grade vowel, e. So, the opposition Singular-Plural in -s/-es is actually Ø/e. 3. The Nom.-Voc. Plural Animate is made in -es, in full-grade -ei-es for i, -eu-es for u, and -ijes, -uwes, for ī, ū; as ówejes, sūnewes, pŕtewes, bhruwes. 4. The Accusative Plural Animate is in -ns: owins, sūnúns, pṛtuns, cōns. 5. Nom.-Voc. Acc. Plural Inanimate in -a: pekwa, marja, swādwá. NOTE. The Athematic inanimate plural ending commonly represented by -a corresponds to an older collective *-h2, which sometimes lengthened the preceding vowel (i or u) instead; as, for Nom.-Acc.-Voc. Pl. *triH, three, cf. Skr. trī, Lat. trī, Ir. trī, but Gk. tría; see §3.7.3.

6. Gen. Pl. in -om (Type I usually in full -ei-om, -eu-om); as, ghóstejom, pṛtwom. NOTE. The -m of the Acc. sg. Animate, Nom.-Acc.-Voc. sg. Inanimate and this case could sometimes be confused. It was often disambiguated with the vocalic grade of the Genitive, full or lengthened, as the singular is always Ø.

7. For the Obliques Plural, cf. Dat.-Abl. ówibhos, sūnumos, nóqtimos; Loc. sūnusu, nóqtisu, Ins. sūnubhis, ówimis, máribhis. NOTE. In the plural, as in the singular, the Genitive and the Obliques are made with the weak form (vowel change and accent shift), if it hadn’t been replaced. This rule, common to the fourth declension, affects the oldest nouns; as, Nom. owis, Gen. oweis, but remade Nom. owis, Gen. owjos; old pertus, pṛteus, but remade pṛtus, pṛtwos; n. kerd, kṛdés, new kṛdi, kṛdejós.

The inflection of animates is essentially the same as that of the Second or Thematic Declension. 2. Nouns of the Fourth Declension in MIE correspond to Latin nouns of First Declension in -r (cf. Lat. magister, magistrī), and Third Declension in consonant (cf. Lat. prīnceps, prīncipis, phoenīx, phoenīcis, cōnāmen, cōnāminis, etc.), and to the Ancient Greek Labial and Velar declension (cf. Gk. Ἄραψ, Ἄραβος, or Φρύξ, Φρυγός). The Nominative ending is -s (with Occlusive, -m, -l), but there is also a Nominative Sg. with pure stem vowel (desinence -Ø and lengthened ending vowel), so that the full-grade Vocative is differentiated. And there is no confusion in Nom./Gen., as -s has a different vowel grade (Nom. -s, Gen. -és or -os). Consonant-Declension Paradigm

NOTE. Beside the usual Loc. ending -i there was also the bare stem without ending. Such unmarked (‘flat’) locatives are widely encountered in modern languages (cf. Eng. next door, home), and in PIE they are well-attested in n-stems, but are rare in other consonant stems.

3. Inanimates have pure vowel stems with different vowel grades. In nouns there should be no confusion at all, as they are different words, but neuter adjectives could be mistaken in Nominative or Vocative Animate. Distinction is thus obtained with vocalism, as in Animate -ōn vs. Inanimate -on, Animate -ēs vs. Inanimate -es (neuter nouns in -s are in -os). 159

4.5.2. IN OCCLUSIVE, M, L 1. Nominative Sg. Animate in -s; as, pods, foot, regs, king, preks, plea, bhurghs, watch-tower, adj. bélowents, strong. NOTE. The Nom. of some stems are often reconstructed in long vowel; as, pōds, rēgs, prēks. Such forms were probably levelled due to the loss of the Nom. ending -s in some dialects, v.i.

2. Accusative Singular Animate in -ṃ; as, podṃ, regṃ, bhurghṃ, bélowentṃ. NOTE. Forms in m make the accusative by lengthening the root vowel, *Vmm > *Vːm, as a consequence of Stang’s Law (v.s.); as, Nom. doms, house, Acc. dōm (<*dom-ṃ), cf. Arm. tun or Gk. δῶ, or Nom. dhghōm, earth, Acc. dhghōm (<*dhghom-ṃ), cf. Skr. kṣām. Root nouns like these ones are quite old in the language history, and are therefore rare in Late PIE dialects, which had usually replaced them by newer derived nouns; as, MIE domos, house, or dhghṃós, earth.

3. Vocative Singular Animate in -Ø; a sin pod, reg, bhurgh, bélowent. 4. The Nom.-Acc.-Voc. Singular Inanimate in -Ø; as somṇt, body, or adj. bheront. 5. Genitive Singular in –os; as, pedos, rēgos, bhurghos, bélowentos, bhérontos. NOTE. Older root nouns made the Genitive-Ablative often in -s, -és, i.e. Ablaut and Accent on stem vowel; as, for strong Nom. doms, weak Gen. dems or dmés, for strong Nom. dhghōm, Gen. dhghmés or (probably already in Late PIE) metathesized ghdhmés. They appear in Late PIE dialects mainly frozen in compounds; as, dems in demspots (v.s.), because most of them were reinterpreted; as, Nom. pods, Gen. pedés, into a newer paradigm pods, pedos.

4.5.3. IN R, N, S 1. Nominative Singular Animate in -Ø with lengthened vowel; as in mātḗr (also mtēr), mother, elōr, swan, kwōn, dog, Osēn, autumn, adj. juwōn, young. NOTE. For those in n, a Nom. without -n is alternatively reconstructed; as, kwō (cf. Skr. śvā).

Stems in s don’t show a systematic vowel lengthening; as, opos, work, nebhos, cloud, ōs, mouth, mōs, character, spes, hope, etc. Adjectives usually end in -es; as, sugenḗs, well-born, of good stock (cf. Gk. eugenḗs, O.Ind. sujanāḥ). 2. Accusative Sg. Animate in -m; as in māterṃ, élorṃ, kwonṃ, júwonṃ, óposṃ. 3. Voc. Sg. An. in -Ø with full vowel; as mātér, élor, kúon, juwon, opos, sugenés. 4. The Nom.-Acc.-Voc. Singular Inanimate in -Ø; as in nōmṇ, name, genos, kin. The adjectives in -s have a neuter in -es; as, sugenés. 5. Genitive Singular in -os, usually with an e, not an o, as the final stem vowel; as, éleros, nomenos, bhugenos, júwenos, nébheses, géneses, ópesos, ēsos, spēsos; but cf. zero-grade in old stems, as mātrós, kunos, and also o, as mosós. NOTE. Old root nouns made the Genitive in -és, with Ablaut and Accent shift; as, kunés. For mātḗr, patḗr, bhrātēr, apart from standard Gen. mātrós, patrós, bhrātros, older Gen. -és), alternative mātŕs, patŕs, bhrātṛs, existed in PIE; as, O.Ind. mātúr.

4.6. VARIABLE NOUNS 4.6.1. Many nouns vary in Declension, and they are called Heteroclites. 4.6.2. Heteroclitic forms are isolated and archaic, given only in Inanimates, as remains of an older system, well attested in Anatolian. 4.6.3. They consist of one form to mark the Nom.-Acc.-Voc, and another for the Obliques, usually r/(e)n; as, ghēsṛ/ghésenos, hand, gutṛ/gútenos, throat, kowṛ/kówenos,

cavern,

ūdhṛ/ū́dhenos,

udder,

bhemṛ/bhémenos,

thigh,

wedhṛ/wédhenos, weapon, gutṛ/gútenos, throat, kowṛ/kówenos, cavern, etc. 4.6.4. Different paradigms are also attested: •

Opposition r/(e)n- (legthened); as, jeqṛ/jeqóneros, liver,

NOTE. For PIE jeqṛ, cf. Ved. yákṛt, Gk. hēpar, Lat. iecur, Av. yākarə, and compare its Obl. Skr. yakn-ás, Gk. hḗpat-os<*hēpn̥t-, Lat. iecinoris.

•

Alternating with other suffixes; as, gheimṛ/gheims/ghjiems, winter, skīwṛ/kīwōn/skinōn, shinbone, later column, wēsṛ/wēsṇtós, spring, wedṛ/wédenos/wodā, water, swepṛ/swopnos, dream.

•

Formed from the consonant r or n of the heteroclite; as, pāwṛ/pūr/puōn, fire, nomṛ/nómeros/nómenos, precision, number, Gk. skōr (gen. skatos), Hitt. šakkar (gen. šaknaš), Lat. -scerda, “shit”. Indo-European Language Association

4. Nouns

4.6.5. The Heteroclites follow the form of the Genitive Singular when forming the Obliques. That is so in the lengthening before declension, vocalism, and in the accent too.

4.7. VOCALISM BEFORE THE DECLENSION 4.7.1. The Predeclensional vowel is that which precedes the ending, even the Ø ending; i.e., we say that Nom. patḗr has a long predeclensional vowel; that the Vocative patér has a full one, and that patréi has it Ø. Other example of the three possibilities is the alternating pod, ped and -pd-. NOTE. The vocalic changes in timbre and grade aren’t meaningful by themselves, they are multifunctional: they can only have meaning in a specific declension, and it is not necessarily always the same. They are thus disambiguating elements, which help distinguish homophones, i.e., words that sound alike.

Changes in vocalism, as we have already explained, happens mainly in PIE roots, and is found in Late PIE dialects only in words that were not remade into the new declension paradigm, i.e. the standard fixed vowel grade and accent. NOTE. The lengthening of the predeclensional vowel in r/n/s stems has been explained (Szemerényi's law) as a consequence of an older (regular PIE) Nom. -s ending; as, *ph2térs→*ph2tḗr, *kwon-s→*kwōn, etc. Cf. e.g. the evolution PIE pod-s (PII pads) → Skr. pāt.

4.7.2. Two kinds of nominal inflection have no alternating stem vowel: that in i, u, and that of the participles of Reduplicates. 4.7.3. Stems in r and n had two possibilities, both with a Nom. sg. in -Ø and lengthened vowel. 1. Nom. with lengthened vowel, Acc., Voc. with full vowel, and Gen. -Ø. The timbre can be e or o, depending on the words. a. In r, as in Nom. mātḗr, Acc. māterṃ, Voc. mātér, Gen. mātrós. b. In n, as in Nom. kwōn/kuwṓn, Acc. kwonṃ/kuwonṃ, Voc. kuon/kuwon, Gen. kunós/kunés. 2. Sometimes, the Genitive had a full grade, as the Accusative and the Vocative. This grade is redundant, not necessary for the disambiguation of the Genitive from the Nominative. There were different timbres e and o, sometimes o in Nom.-Acc.-Voc., and e in Gen., sometimes o in Acc.-Voc.-Gen. and e in Obl. 163

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

4.7.4. There was usually the same vocalism in nouns ending in Occlusive. An exception is made in the adjectives and participles in -nt, which present full vowel in Nom.-Acc.-Voc., and zero-grade in the Genitive; as, Nom. bheronts, Acc. bherontṃ, Voc. bherṇtós. NOTE. There are remains of what seems to be an old alternating vocalism in monosyllabics. The variants dem/dom, ped/pod, neqt/noqt, etc. suggest an original (i.e. IE II) paradigm Nom. pod-s, Acc. pod-ṃ, Gen. ped-ós. This is, again, mostly irrelevant for Modern Indo-European, in which both alternating forms may appear in frozen vocabulary, either with o or e; as, i-declension noqtis, night.

4.7.5. Stems in s do not present a zero-grade. Animates, as already said, oppose a lengthened-vowel Nominative to the other cases, which have full vowel, i.e., Nom. -ēs, rest -es, Nom. -ōs, rest -os. 4.7.6. We know already what happens with stems in i, u, which have two general models or types: Type I. In i, Nom. -i-s, Acc. -i-m, Voc. -ei or -i, Gen. -ei-s (or -oi-s). In u, Nom. -u-s, Acc. -u-m, Voc. -eu or -u, Gen. -eu-s (or -ou-s). Type II. In i, Nom. -i-s, Acc. -i-m, Voc. -ei or -i, Gen. -(e)i-os. In u, Nom. -u-s, Acc. -u-m, Voc. -eu or -u, Gen. -(e)u-os. NOTE. This is an inversion of the general paradigm: the Nom.-Acc.-Voc. has zero-grade (i, u) but for some Voc., the Gen. Ø or full (ei, eu). Distinction is obtained through alternating forms; as in Voc., in which the ending -ei distinguishes it from Neuters in -i; or with changes of Gen. e/o.

4.7.7. Those in Long Diphthong alternate the diphthong (or long vowel) with j or w, which represents the Ø-grade; as in djēus, djēm, diwós; or nāu-s, naw-ós. Uniform vocalism (i.e., no vowel change) is the general rule, though. NOTE. These diphthongs reflect an older situation, of a vowel plus a laryngeal, and they are probably related to nouns in a, and also to those in e and o.

4.7.8. Stems in ā usually maintain an uniform vocalism: Nom.-Voc. -ā, Acc. -ām, Gen. -ās. But those in ja/ī may alternate Nom.-Voc. -ja/-ī, Gen. -jās.

Indo-European Language Association

4. Nouns NOTE. There are also remains of -a in Voc. (and even Nom.), as well as -ai, cf. Gk. γυναι (gunai, an example also found in Armenian), and other forms in -ai in Latin (as rosae<-*rosai), Old Indian and other IE dialects. Those in ē and ō show also traces of alternating phonetic changes.

4.7.9. Neuter stems distinguish the Nom.-Acc.-Voc. forms by having a predeclensional vowel, normally Ø (the ending is also Ø, but for thematic stems), as generally in nouns in i, u, r, n and Occlusive; as kṛdi, madhu, nōmṇ. There are exceptions, though: 1. Nouns with lengthened or full vowel; as, PGk. udōr for MIE wedṛ; 2. Nouns in s cannot have -Ø-, they have -o- in nouns, -e- in adjectives; as, genōs, sugenḗs. 3. Finals e/o have a uniform predeclensional vowel, normally o, plus Nom.-Acc.-Voc ending -m. In the Oblique cases, neuters are declined like the animates. NOTE. There are no Neuters Sg. in -, but for those which became common plural nouns, as e.g. Nom. Sg. Bubljā, The Bible, lit.“the books”, from Gk. bubliom, book.

4.8. VOCALISM IN THE PLURAL 4.8.1. Vocalism in the Plural is generally the same as in the Singular. In the straight cases, Nom.-Acc.-Voc. have full vowel grade (there is no Nominative with lengthened vowel), and the Gen. is in the zero-grade. There are also some special situations: 1. There are examples of full vowel in Nom.-Voc.; as, i, u stems in -ei-es and -eu-es; r stems in in -er-es, -or-es; n stems in -en-es, -on-es; s stems in -es-es. 2. Sometimes, the vowel timbre varies; as, akmōn/ákmenes, (sharp) stone, which give Lith. akmuö/akmenes and Sla. *kāmōn/kāmenes, cf. O.C.S. kamy/kamene. 3. There are some Ø-grades, as Gk. óies, and analogical forms, as Gk. kúnes, Lat. carnes. 4.8.2. The Ø-grade, an exception in the Nom.-Voc., is usual in Accusative Plural in i, u stems; as in derivatives with forms -i-ns, -u-ns. As a general rule, then, the Plural has a full vowel: ákmenes, māteres, etc.

165

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

4.8.3. In consonant declension, Inanimates in s have a Nom.-Acc.-Voc. Pl. -es- in the whole inflection (but Nom.-Acc.-Voc. Sg. in -os); the other stems are in -Ø. 4.8.4. The old vocalism of the Genitive Plural was Ø. The full grade is often found, though, especially in stems in n and often r; as, ákmenom, júwenom, élerom. Cf. also mātróm, or māterom. Type I i, u stems also show full grade in -ei-om, -eu-om. To sum up, Nominative Plural is usually opposed to Nominative Singular, while Genitive and Accusative tend to assimilate Singular and Plural. When these are the same, full vowel is found in the Accusative, and Ø in the Genitive. 4.8.5. In the Obliques Plural, the zero-grade in the predeclensional syllable was very common, whether it has the Genitive vocalism or the full one; as, kwōn/kunsí. This Øgrade is also found in r stems, as in patrós, patṛbhós. And so in i, u, stems too, in Nom. and Acc. Sg., while e is otherwise found (in Nom. Pl., and sometimes in Gen. Sg. and Pl.). The Obliques Plural have Ø; as, egnibhos, ówisu, ghóstibhis, etc. Indeed those with a lengthened Genitive form had it also in the plural; as, rēgbhis, prēksu. Where there was a distinction straight/oblique stem, the Oblique Plural stem is that of the Nom. Sg. Animate or Nom.-Acc.-Voc. Sg. Inanimate; and when, in any of them, there was a distinction between full- and Ø-grade, they take the last. An example of Animates is ped-, which gives Nom. pods, Gen. pedés (remade pedos) Obl. Pl. pedbhís. In Inanimates it happens with s stems which have -os in Nom.-Acc. and -es in the other cases; as in genōs, génesi, genesbhos. And in Heteroclites that oppose an -n in the cases that are not Nom.-Acc.-Voc. with r, s or Ø.

4.9. ACCENT IN DECLENSION 4.9.1. Just like vocalic grades, the accent was used (normally redundantly) to oppose the Straight cases (Nom.-Acc.-Voc.) to the Oblique ones. NOTE. This is one of the worst reconstructed parts of the oldest PIE, as each dialect developed its own accent system. Only Vedic Sanskrit, Greek and Balto-Slavic dialects appear to have more or less retained traces of the oldest accent system, and even these have undergone different systematizations, which obscure the original situation. See §2.6.

4.9.2. PIE Stress paradigms can be classed as Static or Mobile.

Indo-European Language Association

4. Nouns

In a Static paradigm, the stress of each inflected form was fixed on the same syllable of the stem; as, Nom. wḷqos, Gen. wḷqosjo. NOTE. Thematic nouns and adjectives were always of the static type; so were some common old athematic paradigms, as well as those Late PIE athematics that were remade as Static.

In a Mobile paradigm, the stress fell on the stem in some forms (usually the strong ones) and on the inflectional ending in others (usually the weak ones). NOTE. Mobile stress was common among nouns belonging to athematic classes, especially when the stem ended in a consonant or was simply identical with the root (root nouns).

4.9.2. In monosyllabics, the oldest Mobile paradigm is clearly observed: Nom. pōds, Acc. pōdṃ, Gen. pedés, remade (Static) pedos. Nom. kwōn, Acc. kwonṃ, Gen. kunés, remade (Static) kunos. NOTE. Even if the accent shift of the mobile paradigm was changed, remade declensions maintained the weak forms for the Oblique cases. According to Gąsiorowski, “[i]t is worth observing that in mobile paradigms the location of stress has an effect on vowel quality. Unstressed syllables may have so-called zero vocalism (where, in the absence of *e or *o glides, liquids or nasals take over their function as syllabic segments). A shift of stress may also lead to syncope, so that a vowel disappears altogether (as in *drous, leaving a consonant cluster. When neither syncope nor consonant syllabification seems possible, an unstressed vowel remains but *e is preferred to *o in this position (*pedós vs. *pódṃ). The result is a system involving complex alternations (so that the stem *kwon- may also be realised as *kuwōn, *kun- with a vocalised glide or *kwṇ- with syllabic [n]). As complex systems are difficult to learn, many of the irregularities visible in the table tended to be levelled out already in PIE times. Static paradigms, with their immobilised stress and completely predictable forms, expanded at the cost of mobile declensions. This process was similar to the spread in English of regular plurals in -(e)s: horses (Old English hors), hares (OE haran), cows (OE cy), sons (OE suna) etc.; only a handful of odd archaic plurals remain (oxen, men, geese, deer, sheep) to show that English once had a number of declensions.

4.9.3. In polysyllabics, there is e.g. mātḗr, mātrós, etc., but also mātḗr, mātŕs (cf. O.Ind. mātúr), patŕs (cf. Skr. pitúr), bhrātṛs (cf. Skr. bhartuḥ), and so on. 1. Stems in i, u, had probably originally a root accent in Nom.-Acc., and a Genitive with accent on declension, as in the rest of examples.

167

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

2. For those in ā the oldest system is not clearly reconstructed. 3. The Vocative could be distinguished with the accent. The general rule is that it is unstressed, but for the beginning of a sentence; in this case, the stress is on the first syllable, to differentiate it from the Nominative, with accent on declension. NOTE. Stress is thus related to the intonation of the sentence. Gąsiorowski states “[i]t seems that in the vocative case of PIE nouns the main stress was invariably word-initial even in those static declensions that had paradigmatically enforced stress on some other syllable. This seems to mean that PIE vocatives had a characteristic falling intonation”.

4.9.4. In the Plural system, Straight cases had the stress of the straight cases in the singular, and the Obliques shared the stress of the Genitive, when it was opposed to the Nom.-Acc; as in patṛbhós, pedmós, mātṛbhís, etc.

4.10. NUMBER DEVELOPMENTS: THE DUAL 4.10.1. While Singular and Plural are relatively fixed values, the dual has proven to be unstable; it is found in Ind.-Ira., Gk., BSl. and Cel. NOTE. Generally speaking, the rise and decline of the dual may be directly investigated in individual IE languages, e.g. in Greek, in which the dual is a fixed component of the language, while it is missing altogether in Ionic and Lesbian. The origins of the dual might be found in two word types: the personal pronoun and terms for paired body parts (as ‘ears’, ‘eyes’, ‘breasts’, etc.). It is uncertain whether the dual was an old category that gradually disappeared, or more likely a recent (Late PIE) development that didn’t reach all IE dialects. See Meier-Brügger (2003).

4.10.2. The formations vary depending on the stems. The Nom.-Acc.-Voc. is made: •

Stems in a: in -āi for ā; in -ī for ja/ī.

•

Stems in o: Animate in -ōu (alternating -ō/-ōu); Inanimate in -oi.

•

Stems in i, u: Animates and Inanimates in -ī, -ū.

•

Consonant stems: in -e (not general).

NOTE. The endings are usually summed up as a common PIE *-h1(e), *-(i)h1.

The Obliques were still less generalized, the system being reconstructed as follows: Gen. -ous, Dat.-Abl. -bhos/-mos, Loc. -ou, Ins. -bhis/-mis.

Indo-European Language Association

5. ADJECTIVES 5.1. INFLECTION OF ADJECTIVES 5.1.1. In Proto-Indo-European, the noun could be determined in three different ways: with another noun, as in “stone wall”; with a noun in Genitive, as in “the father’s house”; or with an adjective, as in “paternal love”. These are all possible in MIE too, but the adjective corresponds to the third way, i.e., to that kind of words – possibly derived from older Genitives – that are declined to make it agree in case, gender and number with the noun they define. 5.1.2. The adjective is from the older stages like a noun, and even today Indo-European languages have the possibility to make an adjective a noun (as English), or a noun an adjective (stone wall). Furthermore, some words are nouns and adjectives as well: wersis, male, can be the subject of a verb (i.e., a noun), and can determine a noun. Most stems and suffixes are actually indifferent to the opposition noun/adjective. Their inflection is common, too, and differences are usually secondary. This is the reason why we have already studied the adjective declensions; they follow the same inflection as nouns. 5.1.3. However, since the oldest reconstructible PIE language there were nouns different from adjectives, as PIE wḷqos or pods, and adjectives different from nouns, as rudhrós, solwos, etc. Nouns could, in turn, be used as adjectives, and adjectives be nominalized. NOTE. There were already in IE II some trends of adjective specialization, with the use of suffixes, vocalism, accent, and sometimes inflection, which changed a noun to an adjective and vice versa.

5.2. THE MOTION 5.2.1. In accordance with their use, adjectives distinguish gender by different forms in the same word, and agree with the nouns they define in gender, number and case. This is the Motion of the Adjective.

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

5.2.2. We saw in § 3.4 that there are some rare cases of Motion in the noun. Sometimes the opposition is made between nouns, and this seems to be the older situation; as, patḗr/mātḗr, bhrātēr/swesōr. But an adjective distinguishes between masculine, feminine and neuter, or at least between animate and neuter (or inanimate). This opposition is of two different kinds: a. Animates are opposed to Inanimates by declension, and also vocalism and accent; as, -os/-om, -is/-i, -nts/-nt, -ēs/-es. b. The masculine is opposed to the feminine, when it happens, by the stem vowel; as, os/-ā, -nts/-ntja, -us/-wja. The general system may be so depicted: Animates

Inanimates

Masculine

Feminine

Neuter

1.

-os

-ā

-om

2.

-is

-is

-i

3.

-nts

-ntja

-nt

4.

-ēs

-ēs

-es

5.

-us

-wja

-u

NOTE. The masculine-feminine opposition is possibly new to Late PIE; IE II – as the Anatolian dialects show – had probably only an Animate-Inanimate opposition. The existence of this kind of adjectives is very important for an easy communication, because e.g. adjectives in ā are only feminine (unlike nouns, which can also be masculine). An o stem adjective followed by an -s in Nom. Sg. is animate or masculine, never feminine only, whilst there are still remains of feminine nouns in -os.

5.2.3. Compare the following examples: 1. For the so-called thematic adjectives, in -os, -ā, -om, cf. somós, -, -óm, equal, rudhrós, -, -óm, red, wolós, -, -óm, willing, kserós, -, -óm, dry, etc. But note the root accent in newos, -ā, -om, new, solwos, -ā, -om, whole, kaikos, -ā, -om, blind, lajos, -ā, -om, fat, etc.

Indo-European Language Association

5. Adjectives NOTE. Most adjectives have o-stem, among them verbal adjectives and compound adjectives, cf. diwós, heavenly, klutós, heard, famous. The corresponding feminine forms feature PIE ā.

2. For adjectives in -us, -wja/-wī, -u, cf. ēsús, -wjá, -ú, good, mṛghús, -wjá, -ú, short, leghús, -wjá, -ú, light, ōkús, -wjá, -ú, swift. With root accent, cf. swādus, wja, -u (Southern IE swādús, -w, -ú), pleasant, mḷdus, -wja, -u, soft, tṇghus, -wja, u, fat, tṇus, -wja, -u, thin, tṛsus, -wja, -u, dry, dhṛsus, -wja, -u, bold, etc. NOTE. On the original stress of PIE *swādus, see the so-called Erlangen School Ablaut system, e.g. Lubotsky (1987) at and Frazier (2006) at .

3. For adjectives in -is, -i, cf. grṇdhís, -í, grown, lēnis, -i, weak, moinis, -i, obliged, muttis, -i, speechless, ṇwidis, -i, ignorant, etc.

5.3. ADJECTIVE SPECIALIZATION 5.3.1. The specialization of adjectives from nouns is not absolute, but a matter of grade: 1. Stems in -nt are usually adjectives, but they were also assimilated to the verbal system and became (Present) Participles. 2. Words in -ter are nouns, and adjectives are derived usually in -trjós and others. 3. Nouns in -ti have adjectives in -tjós, or -tikós, usually with an ethnic meaning. 4. Sometimes distinction is made with alternating vowels: neuters in -om and adjectives in -ḗs, -és. The accent is normally used to distinguish thematic nouns in -os with adj. in -ós (mainly -tós, -nós). NOTE. There are sometimes secondary processes that displace the accent from an adjective to create a noun; cf. Gk. leukós, “white”, léukos, “white spot”. These correlations noun-adjective were often created, but from some point onward the derivation of adjectives was made with suffixes like -ment- (-went-), -jo-, -to-, -no-, -iko-, etc. There are, however, abundant remains of the old identity between noun and adjective in Late PIE. For adjectival suffix -jo- and -ijo-, cf. istarniya‘central’ (
5.4. COMPARISON OF ADJECTIVES 5.4.1. In Proto-Indo-European, as in English, there are three degrees of comparison: the Positive, the Comparative and the Superlative. 171

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

5.4.2. The adjective in its natural or ‘positive’ state may be made comparative and superlative by the addition of suffixes. 5.4.3. The Comparative, a difference of grade between two compared values, is generally formed by adding the Primary Comparative suffix -jos- to the root; as, from sen-os, sen-jos (Lat. senior), older, from mag-nos, mag-jos, bigger (Lat. maior), etc. NOTE. The form -jos varies allophonically with -ijos, cf. new-jos, new-ijos, newer. According to Meier-Brügger, “[*-ijs] replaces [*-jos] in nominative singular masculine and feminine forms with the structure KV.K- and KVR.K-; whereas, according to rules of phonetics, *-jos- is expected in forms with three or more syllables”.

The suffix -(t)er-o- is the basis for the Secondary Comparative forms; as, from upo, up, upon, up-er-o- (cf. O.Ind. úpar-a-) beneath, nearer. NOTE. The suffix -(t)ero- is the –o- adjective form of adverbs ending in -(t)ṛ and -(t)er; as, sup, under, sup-er-, over, and sup-er-o-, found above; pro, at the front, forward, and pró-tero-, toward the front, earlier. Adverbs and adjectives that were derived from them were capable of marking relative contrast, e.g. in the case of opposites or selection from a pair; cf. from sem-, one, sṃ-ter-o, the other of two in a unity, v.i.

5.4.4. The Superlative marks the highest grade among two compared values. The same suffix (with the ablaut -is-) is the base for common PIE -is-tos,-is-ṃos; as, senistos, oldest, magisṃos, biggest (Lat. maximus<*magisemos), newistos, newest, etc. Superlative of the Secondary Comparative is made in -ṃo-; as, uper-ṃo-, súp-mos (Lat. summus), from ṇdherós, underly, ṇdh-ṃos (Lat. infimus, Skr. ádhamas), from entós, inside, ent-ṃos, (Lat. intimus), innermost. NOTE. Dialectal Superlative suffixes include O.Ind. -tṃo- (cf. Skr. -tama-), and Gk. -tṃ-to- (cf. Gk. tato); -ṃo- appears in other PIE adjectives, but it took usually the Superlative degree.

These suffixes -jo-, -tero-, and -is-to-, had probably an original nominal meaning. NOTE. Thus, the elongations in -jos had a meaning; as in Latin, where iuniores (<*jun-jos-es) and seniores (<*sen-jos-es) were used for groups of age; or those in -teros, as mātérterā ‘aunt on the mother’s side’, ekwteros ‘mule’. Forms like *jun-jos-es were not common in PIE, although indeed attested in different dialects; adjectival suffixes -jós, -istós are added to the root (in egrade) without the initial suffixes, while -teros and -ṃos are added with the suffixes. Cf. O.Ir. sír, cp. sía<sējós, ‘longus, longior’; lán (plēnus cf. lín ‘numerus’), cp. lia

5.5. NUMERALS 5.5.1. CLASSIFICATION OF NUMERALS Modern Indo-European Numerals may be classified as follows: I. Numeral Adjectives: 1. Cardinal Numbers, answering the question how many? as, oinos, one; dwōu, two. 2. Ordinal Numbers, adjectives derived (in most cases) from the Cardinals, and answering the question which in order? as, pr̅wos, first; ónteros, second. 3. Distributive Numerals, answering the question how many at a time? as, semli, one at a time; dwisni, two by two. II. Numeral Adverbs, answering the question how often? as, dwis, twice, tris, thrice.

173

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE 2. The Ordinals were formed by means of the thematic suffix -o-, which caused the syllable before the ending to have zero grade. The newer suffix -to- was the most productive in Late PIE. For internal reconstruction in PIH, Late PIE and early dialects, see Szemerényi (1970).

2. The forms from eleven to nineteen were usually formed by placing the number and then dekṃ, ten. Hence Modern Indo-European uses the following system: Cardinal

Skr. n. sa-hásra-, Av. ha-zaŋra. For Eastern EIE tū́sṇtī, (<*tus-kṃt-i-?, “fat hundred”), cf. Gmc. þūsund-i, pl. þūsundjōs Bal. tūksunt-i, O.Prus. tūsimtons, Toch. tumame, Sla. *tɨ̄ sǭt-j-ā.

5. The other numerals are made similar to the tens, with the units in first place; as, oinā-wīkṃtī, f. twenty-one; m. qétwṛes-trīkṃta, thirty-four. NOTE. For the simple type oinos-wīkṃtī, cf. Skr. éka-viṅśati (in compounds where the unit could be inflected); with copulatives, cf. Lat. unus et uiginti, Bret. unan-warn-ugent, Ger. einundzwanzig, Du. eenentwintig, Fris. ienentweintich, Da. enogtyve, etc.

Numbers beyond 100 usually have the copulative -qe; as, kmtóm qétwṛes-qe. NOTE. The normal order of composite numerals is unit+tens, and there was a natural tendency to follow a ‘unit+ten+hundred+…’, e.g. RV cátuḥ-śata- (
Only the last member signals the ordinal; as, oinā-wīkṃtṃos, twenty-first, trikṃtós trja-trkṃtṃos-qe, f. three hundred thirty-third. 175

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. Cf. Skr. ékaviṅśa-, Lat. unus et vicensimus, Ger. einunzwanzigste, etc.

6. Numerals were often inserted as prefixes of possessive compound forms, cf. the type Gk. tri-pod-, tripod. As first members, numbers 1-4 had a special zero-grade form: sṃ-, one-; dwi-, two-, tri-, three-, and also q(a)tur-, four-.

5.5.3. DECLENSION OF CARDINALS AND ORDINALS Of the Cardinals only oinos, dwōu, trejes (and dialectally qétwṛes), are declinable. a. The declension of oinos, -ā, -om has often the meaning of certain, a, single, alone; as, oinā dinā, a certain day. Also, as a simple numeral, to agree with a plural noun of singular meaning. The plural occurs also in phrases like oinōs álterōs-qe, one party and the other one (the ones and the others). The root sem-, in semos, one, refers the unity as a whole, found in adj. somós, equal. NOTE. Gk., Arm., Toch., show an old N. m. sems, A. sēm, N.-A. n. sem (G.-Ab. smes, D. smei, L. sem(i), I. smē), and f. smja/ī (A. smja/īm, G.-Ab. smjās, D. smjāi, L. smjā(i), I. smjā).

c. The inflection of d(u)wōu, two, is irregular, connected to issues concerning the dual:

5. Adjectives

d. smīghslī/tū́sṇtī, thousand, functions as an indeclinable neu. adjective: smīghslī modōis, in a thousand ways; kom tū́sṇtī wīrṓis, with a thousand men. dwāi smīghslī penqekṃtós trejesdekṃ-qe cenām, (Acc. f.) to 3513 women. NOTE. PIE plural nouns neu. smīghslī/tū́sṇtī, are old abstract (collectives) in -ja/ī (<*-i-h2), etymologically identical to neuter plurals in Nom.-Acc.-Voc. -a; therefore, unlike feminine nouns of the first declension in -ja/ī (an innovation in Late PIE), their stems follow the old neuter plural declension in i, of the same type as trja/trī (which is nevertheless a PIE feminine). As, specific plural smīghslijom/tū́sṇtijom cenām, of thousands of women. From *sṃ-ih2-ghsl-ih2, giving smīghslī, smīghslja, both Lat. *mīl(l)i and mīlia “might be postulated as free forms within the same synchronic structure” J. Gvozdanović (1992) against a starting point *-ij (E. Hamp, 1968).

e. The ordinals are adjectives of the o and ā declensions, and are regularly declined. 6.3.2. Cardinals and Ordinals have the following uses: a. Numbers 11-13 have no gender or flexion; as, m., f., n. óinodekṃ, dwṓdekṃ, tréjesdekṃ; numbers above 20 have gender and flexion; as, f. oinā-sékskṃta, f. dwāi-wīkṃtī, n. trísores-qetwr̅kṃta, n. oinom-wīkṃtī putlā, Acc. 21 children. b. In numbers above 100 the highest denomination generally stands first, the next second, etc., and the ‘ten’ is last, as in German; as, smīghslī/tū́sṇtī septṃkṃtós qetwṛes-sékskṃta-qe, 1764. c. PIE had no special words for million, billion, trillion, etc. They were expressed by multiplication. In MIE they are formed with common loan million, from Lat. mille, “one thousand”; as, smīghsljōn, million, dwīghsljōn, billion, trīghsljōn, trillion, etc. d. A common expression in PIE is the adverbial use of the accusative singular neuter of the ordinal; as, pr̅wom, firstly; ónterom, secondly, etc. e. Fractions are expressed, as in English, by cardinals in the numerator and ordinals in the denominator. The neuter is generally used for sustantivized ordinals, or the feminine with noun ‘part’; as, n. dwōi séptṃā (or f. dwāi septṃāi pṛtes) two-sevenths; n. trísores oktowā, three-eighths. When the numerator is one, it is usually omitted: tritjom, one-third; qetwṛtom, onefourth, and so on. NOTE. Indo-Iranian exhibits an old trend omit the parts in which it is divided, if only one is left; as, dwāi pṛtes, two-thirds (“two parts”), trja pṛtes, three-fourths.

177

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

The compositional PIE sēmi-, half-, is combined with ordinals to express cardinals plus half; as, sēmi-tritjos, two and a half, i.e. “having a half of the third (item)”. NOTE. For MIE half, a loan from Lat. adj. dwismedhjos, noun dwismedhjom, “divided medially”, could be used; however, proper forms meaning divided in two are reconstructed from multiplicatives, v.i.

f. In Approximatives, the old disjunctive use of numerals was made by collocations of adjacent cardinals in ascending order, e.g. penqe seks septṃ, five, six, or seven. In MIE, a common IE penqe-septṃ (or penqe septṃ-we), six or seven, is also possible. g. Time periods are made with compounds: For years, as dwiatnjom, a period of two years, triatnjom, qetwṛatnjom, smīghsliatnjom, millenium, etc. For days, as dwidjówijom, a period of two days, tridjówijom, qetwṛdjówijom. For months, as dwimēnstris, a period of two months, bimester, trimēnstris, trimester, qetwṛmēnstris, seksmēnstris, semester, etc. NOTE. For month names, a compound with mēns-ri- is followed; as, Septṃmēnsris, september, Oktōmēnsris, october, etc.

5.5.4. DISTRIBUTIVES 1. Distributive Numerals are number words which express group membership. They are used mainly in the sense of so many apiece or on each side, and also in multiplications. They answer to the question how many of each? how many at a time? 2. The oldest formations are collocations of geminated cardinals, with both members inflected; as, semos-semos, oinos-oinos, each one, penqe-penqe, each five, etc. NOTE. For this kind of distributives, cf. Gk. tri tri, O.Ind., éka- eka-, Zor. Pahl. ēk ēk, Pers. das das, Parth. Sogd. ‘yw ‘yw, Arm. tasn tasn, Toch. A sam sam, B ṣeme ṣeme, okt okt, ñu ñu; also in Hittite iterated groups, in place of distributives, 1-aš 1-aš, 1-an 1-an. Even in nouns, cf. Lat. alteros alterom, each other, O.Ind. díve díve, each day; Myc. we-te we-te, each year; etc. etc.

3. Some PIE distributives were formed with adj. suffix -(s)no-, and abstract/collective suffix -ī; as, dwīsnī, two at a time, two each, trisnī, qátrusnī. NOTE. For this formation e.g. dwīsnī, cf. Lat. bīnī, Gmc. *twiznaz (
Indo-European Language Association

5. Adjectives kbisñni. Also, it is believed that oi-no- was originally the first member of that series (remember dialectal oi-wos, oi-kos), meaning “singleness, unity”, before replacing sem-. Distributives for higher numerals were later expressed in EIE languages using a word that meant ‘each’, as, Eng. each, Fr. chaque, Alb. kaa, Bret. cach, etc.

4. Distributives can be used to express percentage; as, twenty percent, dekṃ-dekṃ dwōu, “two for each ten”, kṃtóm-kṃtóm wīkṃtī, “twenty for each hundred”.

5.5.5. NUMERAL ADVERBS 1. The so-called Numeral Adverbs are a ditinctive class of adverbs which specifically answer the question qoti, how many times? how often? 2. The most common ones are formed with zero-grade and a lengthening in -s; as, semli, once, dwis, twice, tris, thrice, and qatrus (<*qətwṛ-s), four times. NOTE. For EIE semli, cf. O.Lat. semol, Umb. sumel, Goth. simble, O.H.G. simlē, O.Ir. amal; for the expected *sṃni-, maybe Hitt. šani. In PII, it is formed as sṃkŕt, from PIE -qṛt, v.i.; in PGk, sṃ-pṇqus, alone, cf. Gk. hapaks, Hitt. pa-an-ku-uš, L. cūnctus. For the rest, e.g. tris, cf. Lat. ter, Myc. ti-ri-se-roe (
3. Some old compounds are also found in -ki. NOTE. A certain reconstruction is nevertheless difficult; cf. Hitt. -an-ki, Gmc. zwis-ki, Gk. -ki, Indian *-ki (cf. Sogd. -ky, Yaghnobi īki īki, “one by one, one each”, Chorasmian -c); maybe also in Arm. erkics. Variant Gk. -kis, Hitt. -kis are probably due to an assimilation to the type dwis, twice, twofold. For higher numbers, probably an innovation, cf. Greek numeral adverbs in -a-kis, and Hittite in -an-ki, maybe from a common PIE *-ṇki.

4. A system of simple collocations is used, placing the cardinal number before a noun meaning ‘time’; as, penqe qŕtewes, five times, oktōu qŕtewes, eight times, and so on. NOTE. For m. qṛtus, time, cf. O.Ind. -kṛtwaḥ (
5.5.6. MULTIPLICATIVES 1. Multiplicatives like single, double, triple, etc. which answer the question how many fold?, had a variety of compounds for the first numerals. 179

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

3. The oldest PIE multiplicatives found were Collectives, made in -jo-, -t- and -k-; as, óinokos, single, sole, unique, dwojós, two-fold, group of two, duad, trejós, three-fold, triad, penqstís, group of five, dekḿts, group of ten, decade. NOTE. For North-West common óinokos, cf. Gmc. *ainagas (cf. Goth ainahs, O.N. einga, O.Eng. anga, O.Sax. enag, O.H.G. einac), O.C.S. inokŭ, Lat. unicus (<*oine-kos? or *oino-ikos?); suffix -ko- is also found in O.Ind. -śáḥ, Gk. -kás, Hitt. -kaš. For PIE dwojós, cf. RV tvayá-, trayá, Myc. duwojo-/dwojo-, Gk. doiós, O.H.G. zwī, g. zwīes, Lith. dvejì, trejì, O.C.S. dĭvojĭ, trojĭ, O.Ir. trēode. Apart from -jo-, common PIE collectives are found in -t-, usually -ti-, as penq-s-tis, group of five, fist, cf. O.Ind. paṇktí-, Av. sastí-, xsvasti-, O.C.S. pęstĭ, -tĭ, Lith. -t-, -ti-, Gmc. funxstiz (cf. Goth. fūst) O.Ir. bissi, O.Welsh bys, but also -ts, as, dekḿ-ts, Gk. δεκάς, Lat. *dekents>*dekients, spreading *j-ṇts as new formant, into Gk. πεντάς, then τριάς, etc. Lat. *quinquens>quinquiens, then triēns, etc; cf. e.g. neuter plurals wīkṃtī (interpreted as dual), “a group of two decades, double decads”, twenty, trīkṃta, “triple decads”, thirty, and so on.

4. Proportional or Relative numerals express how many times more (or less) one thing is than another; they are made as follows: a. in -plós, as sṃplós, simple, dwiplós, two-fold, double, twice as much, twice as large, triplós, three-fold, triple. NOTE. For dwi-plos, cf. Lat. duplus, Hom. Gk. f. acc. diplḗn (
b. in -pḷks, as, dwipḷks, “with two folds”, duplex, tripḷks, “with three folds”. NOTE 2. For pḷk-, also reconstructed as from root pel-, cf. Lat. -plicare, Gk. plekō <*pl-ek, ‘to fold’. For dwipḷks, cf. Lat. duplex, Gk. δίπλαξ, Umbr. tuplak.

c. with verbal adjective -pḷtós, folded, is used to denote something divided in n parts; as, dwipḷtós, an object folded in two. NOTE. Cf. Gk. -plasio-<*-platio-<*pḷt-jo-s, a derivative that could express ‘belonging to the class of objects folded in two’ (Gvozdanović, 1992); maybe also here i-stem O.Ir. trilis<*tripḷtis? For dwipḷtós, cf. Gk. διπλάσιος, Ger. zwifalt. A similar form is in Gmc. *poltos, fold.

d. with suffix -dhā, as dwidhā, two-fold, divided in two parts. NOTE. cf. Skr. duví-dha, dve-dha, Gk. διχθά (<*δι-θα), and maybe also (with the meaning “half”) O.N. twēdi, O.Eng. twǣde, O.H.G. zwitaran, O.Ir. dēde, Hitt. dak-ša-an.

6. PRONOUNS 6.1. ABOUT THE PRONOUNS 6.1.1. Pronouns are used as Nouns or as Adjectives. They are divided into the following seven classes: 1. Personal Pronouns: as, egṓ, I. 2. Reflexive Pronouns: as, se, himself. 3. Possessive Pronouns: as, ṇserós, our. 4. Demonstrative Pronouns: as, so, this, that. 5. Relative Pronouns: as, jos, who. 6. Interrogative Pronouns: as, qis? who? 7. Indefinite Pronouns: as, qis, anyone. 6.1.2. Pronouns have a special declension.

6.2. PERSONAL PRONOUNS 6.2.1. The Personal pronouns of the first person are egṓ, I, wejes, we; of the second person, tū, thou, juwes, you. The personal pronouns of the third person - he, she, it, they - are wanting in Indo-European, an anaphoric (or even a demonstrative) being used instead. NOTE. IE III had no personal pronouns for the third person, like most of its early dialects. For that purpose, a demonstrative was used instead; as, from ki, id, cf. Anatolian ki, Gmc. khi-, Lat. cis-, id, Gk. ekeinos, Lith. sis, O.C.S. si, etc. It is this system the one used in Modern IndoEuropean; although no unitary form was chosen in Late PIE times, the general pattern (at least in the European or North-Western dialects) is obvious.

6.2.2. Since every finite verb form automatically indicates de ‘person’ of the verb, the nominal pronoun forms are already adquately marked. In comparison with the Orthotonic forms, often stregthened by particles, the special Enclitic forms feature the minimal word stem and may be used in multiple cases. 6.2.3. The Personal (Non-Reflexive) Pronouns are declined as follows:

6. Pronouns

For the Personal Pronouns of the third person singular and plural, the anaphoric i- is used. See §6.5 for more details on its use and inflection. a. The plural wejes is often used for the singular egṓ; the plural juwes can also be so used for the singular tū. Both situations happen usually in formal contexts. b. The forms nseróm, wesróm, etc., can be used partitively: óinosqisqe ṇseróm, each one of us. wesróm oljom, of all of you. c. The genitives mene, tewe, ṇseróm, wesróm, are used objectively: es mnāmōn ṇseróm, be mindful of us.

6.3. REFLEXIVE PRONOUNS 6.3.1. Reflexive Pronouns are used in the accusative and the oblique cases to refer to the subject of the sentence or clause in which they stand; as, se lubhḗjeti, he/she loves himself/herself; sewe bhāmi, I talk about (of) me, and so on. a. In the first and second persons, the oblique cases of the personal pronouns were later commonly used as Reflexives: as, me widējō for se widējō, I see myself; nos perswādḗjomos for se perswādḗjomos, we persuade ourselves, etc. b. The Reflexive pronoun of the third person has a special form used only in this sense, the same for both singular and plural. It is thus declined: se, -self ACC.

se, myself, yourself, himself/herself/itself, ourselves, yourselves, themselves.

GEN.

sewe, soi, of myself, yourself, himself/herself/itself, ourselves, etc.

DAT.

sebhei, soi, to myself, yourself, himself/herself/itself, ourselves, etc.

LOC.

sei, in/with myself, yourself, himself/herself/itself, ourselves, etc.

ABL.

swed, by/from/etc. myself, yourself, himself/herself/itself, ourselves, etc.

NOTE. Particular IE languages show an old swoi and swe, cf. Gk. Lesb. ϝε. According to J.T. Katz precisely this swe is regarded as ancient and se as secondary. In contrast, G.E. Dunkel connects se/soi, which he considers more ancient, with the demonstrative pronoun so.

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

6.4. POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS 6.4.1. From the bases of the personal pronouns, the oldest Possessive Pronouns seem to have been (e)mos, mine, ṇsmós, ours, t(e)wos, thine, usmós, yours, s(e)wos. NOTE. So e.g. in Gk. emós (<emós), ammos, sós, ummos, hos, Av. ma-, θwa-, O.Ind. tva-. Variants exist in twos/tewós (as Gk. teϝós, Lat. tuus), swos/sewós (as Gk. heϝós, Lat. suus).

6.4.2. The common Late PIE Possessives were formed from the same bases with suffixes -(i)jo- in the singular, -(t)ero- in the plural; as, méwijos, menjos, my, ṇserós, our, téwijos, thy, userós, your, séwijos. NOTE. For such common PIE forms, similar to the genitives of the personal pronouns (v.s.), cf. Gk. ēméteros (<ṇsmé-tero-), uméteros (<usmé-tero-), O.Lat. noster (<nos-tero-) uoster (<wostero-), Goth. unsara-, (<ṇs-ero-), izwara- (<wesw-ero-?), etc. all used as possessive pronouns; for the singular, cf. Lat. meus, O.C.S. mojĭ, Goth meina-, etc. O.Ind. madīya-, tvadīya, etc. were formed from the ablatives mad, tvad, etc., while possessives mamaka-, asmāka-, jusmāka-, were made from the genitives. See Szemerényi (1970), Adrados (1998), Meier-Brügger (2003).

6.4.3. Possessives are declined like adjectives of the first type, in -os, -ā, -om. NOTE. PIE s(e)wos, séwijos, are only used as reflexives, referring to the subject of the sentence. For a possessive of the third person not referring to the subject, the genitive of a demonstrative (anaphoric) must be used. Thus, paterṃ séwijom chenti, (he/she/it) kills his [own] father; but paterṃ esjo chenti, (he/she/it) kills his [somebody (m.) else’s] father.

6.4.4. Other forms are the following: a. A possessive qosjos, -ā, -om, whose, is formed from the genitive singular of the relative or interrogative pronoun qo- (v.i.). It may be either interrogative or relative in force according to its derivation, but is usually the former. b. The Reciprocals one another, each other, were expressed like the distributives (v.s.); as, oinos oinos, álteros álteros, aljos aljos, onjos onjos, etc. For example, álteros álterosjo prō autons énkonti, they drive each other’s cars (one drives the car of the other), aljōs aljons lubhḗjonti, they love each other (the ones love the others). NOTE. Cf. Hitt. ‘1-aš 1-an ku-w-aš-ki-it’, “one killed the other continuously”, O.Ind. anyonya-, Av. aniiō.aniia-, Chor. nywny, Lat. alterius alterum; oinos álterom, as in Latin unus alterum, Eng. one another, Ger. einander, etc. Reciprocity is one of the principal meanings of middle voice

Indo-European Language Association

6. Pronouns forms in Sanskrit and Ancient Greek, and also in Latin -r forms, therefore assumed to have been inherited from the proto-language (cf. Hirt 1934, Georgiev 1935). For mutually, each other, reciprocally, an adv. mistós (<*mit-to-), Ø-grade from meit-, change, exists; cf. O.Ind. mithás, Goth. missō, Lat. mūtuum, O.Ir. mis-, mith, Bal. *meit-u-, O.C.S. мьсть, mьstā; e.g. Goth. ‘ni liugid iswis misso’, “do not lie to one another”.

6.5. ANAPHORIC PRONOUNS 6.5.1. Anaphora is an instance of an expression referring to another, the weak part of the deixis. In general, an anaphoric is represented by a pro-form or some kind of deictic. They usually don’t have adjectival use, and are only used as mere abbreviating substitutes of the noun. NOTE. Old anaphorics are usually substituted in modern IE dialects by demonstratives.

They are usually integrated into the pronoun system with gender; only occasionally some of these anaphorics have been integrated into the Personal Pronouns system in Indo-European languages. 6.5.2. Modern Indo-European has a general Anaphoric pronoun, is, ja, id, an old demonstrative pronoun with basis on PIE root i- with ablaut ei-. NOTE. PIE root i- is also the base for common PIE relative jo-. Demonstrative is, ja/ī, id, with anaphoric value, “he/she/it”, in Italic (e.g. Lat. is, ea, id), Germanic (e.g. O.H.G. ir, er/iz, ez), Baltic (e.g. Lith. jìs/jì), Greek (e.g. Cypriot ín), Indo-Iranian (e.g. Skr. ay-ám, iy-ám, i-d-ám).

6.5.3. The other Demonstrative pronoun, so, sā, tod, functions as anaphoric too, but tends to appear leading the sentence, being its origin probably the relative. They are also used for the second term in comparisons. NOTE. Demonstrative so, sā, tod is also widely attested in Celtic (e.g. O.Ir. -so/-d), Italic (e.g. Lat. is-te, is-ta, is-tud), Germanic (e.g. Goth. sa, sō, þata, O.Eng. sē, sēo, þæt, O.H.G. der, die, daz), Baltic (e.g. Lith. tàs, tà), Slavic (e.g. O.C.S. tŭ, ta, to), Alb. ai, ajo, Gk. ho, hē, tó, Indo-Iranian (e.g. Skr. sá, s, tát), Toch B se, sā, te, Arm. ay-d, Hitt. ta. Modern IE languages have sometimes mixed both forms to create a single system, while others maintain the old differentiation.

6.6. DEMONSTRATIVE PRONOUNS 6.6.1. The function of Demonstrative pronouns, deixis, includes an indication of position in relation to the person speaking. It is possible to express a maximum of four (generally three) different degrees of distance; as, I-deixis (here, near the speaker), thou185

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

deixis (there, near the person addressed), that-deixis (there, without a particular spatial reference), yonder-deixis (yonder, over there). 6.6.2. The Demonstrative Pronouns so, this, that, and is, this one, that one, “the (just named)”, are used to point out or designate a person or thing for special attention, either with nouns, as Adjectives, or alone, as Pronouns, and are so declined: so, sā, tod, this, that Singular m.

6.7. INTERROGATIVE AND INDEFINITE PRONOUNS 6.7.1. INTRODUCTION 1. There are two forms of the Interrogative-Indefinite Pronoun in Modern IndoEuropean, and each one corresponds to a different class in our system, qi- (with ablaut qei-) to the Substantive, and qo- to the Adjective pronouns. SUBSTANTIVE

ADJECTIVE

qis bhéreti? who carries?

qos wīrós bhéreti? what man carries?

qid widḗjesi? what do you see?

qom autom widḗjesi? which car do you see?

NOTE. In the origin, qi-/qo- was possibly a noun which meant “the unknown”, and its interrogative/indefinite sense depended on the individual sentences. Later both became pronouns with gender, thus functioning both as (orthotonic) interrogatives or (enclitic) indefinites (Szemerényi, 1970). The form qi- is probably the original independent form (compare the degree of specialization of qo-, further extended in IE dialects), for which qo- could have been originally the o-grade form (Beekes 1995, Adrados 1998). The Substantive Interrogative pronoun in PIE was qi-, whereas qo- was used to fill adjectival functions (Meier-Brügger, 2003), hence MIE Substantive-qi and Adjective-qo. Some IE dialects have chosen the o-stem only, as Germanic, while some others have mixed them together in a single paradigm, as Indo-Iranian, Balto-Slavic or

6.7.2. COMPOUNDS 1. The pronouns qi- and qo- appear in different combinations: a. The forms can be repeated, as in substantive qisqis, anyone, qidqid, anything, or adjective qāqos, qāqā, qāqod, whoever. NOTE. For this use, similar to the distributive ones, e.g. EIE qāqos, whoever, Gaul. papon, O.Ir. cāch, O.C.S. kakй, Lith. kók(i)s, and also Gk. εκατερος, εκαστος, O.Ind. pratieka, Hitt. kuissa, Goth. ainhvaþaruh; for qisqis, anyone, cf. Gk. τις, οστις, O.Ind. kim kid, kacit, kaścana, kopi, Hitt. kuis kuis, kuis-as kuis, Lat. quisquis, quīlĭbĕt, quīvis, Goth. hvazuh, hvarjizuh, Arm. in-č. Other common PIE forms include (sol)wos, all, cf. Gk. ολοι, O.Ind. visva, sarva, Hitt. hūmant-, O.Ir. u(i)le; enis, certain, cf. Gk. ενιαυτον, O.Ind. ekaścana Lat. quīdam; álteros, ónteros, the other, from aljos, onjos, some other, etc.

b. In some forms the copulative conjunction -qe is added to form new pronouns, usually universals; as, qiskomqe, qisimmoqe, whoever. Indefinites itaqe, and also, toqe, also, joqe, and. NOTE. Cf. Gk. τις αν, τις εαν, O.Ind. yaḥ kaś cit, yo yaḥ, yadanga, Hitt. kuis imma, kuis imma kuis, kuis-as imma (kuis), Lat. quiscumque, Goth. sahvazuh saei, Ger. wer auch immer, O.Ir. cibé duine, Russ. кто бы ни;

c. Some forms are made with prefixes, like (substantive) edqis, some(one) among many, edqid, something, (adjective) edqos, edqā, edqod, whether, some. Other forms with suffixes; as, qéjespejoi, some.

d. The negatives are usually composed with negation particles, usually ne; as, neqis, nobody, neqid, nothing, neqom, never; but neqos, someone. NOTE. For neqis, nobody, no one, cf. Gk. ουδεις, O.Ind. na kaḥ, Hitt. UL kuiski, Goth. (ni) hvashun, Gaul. nepon, O.Ir. ní aon duine, Lat. nec quisquam, Russ. никто.

With identity or oppositive forms; as, qidpe, indeed, aljodhei, elsewhere. 2. There are compounds with numerals; as, ghei-sem, exactly so, in this one way. NOTE. Cf. Hitt. ki-ššan, ‘thus, in the following way’, from ghei-sem, “in this one way, exactly so”, also found in eni-ššan, ‘thus, in the manner mentioned’, apeni-ššan, ‘thus, in that way’, etc. For ne-oinom, “no one”, none, not any, cf.

NOTE. Latin (c)ibī, (c)ubī is frequently reconstructed as a conceivable PIE *ibhi, *qobhi, but it is not difficult to find a common origin in PIE i-dhei, qo-dhei for similar forms attested in different IE dialects; cf. Lat. ubī, Osc. puf, O.Ind. kuha, O.Sla. kude, etc. Relative forms in italics are reconstructed following the general paradigm; some relatives were made with the interrogative qo-, mainly used with this value in Anatolian and Northern IE, especially in the Western core; as, int. qām? how, in what way? and rel. qām, which way, cf. Lat. quam, Arm. k’an, v.i. For more information, see Appendix III.2.1 and .

6.8. RELATIVE PRONOUNS 6.8.1. There are two general pronominal stems used as relative pronouns, one related to the anaphorics (jo-), and one to the interrogative-indefinites (qi-/qo-). 191

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. The interrogative pronoun is also used as indefinite in all IE languages. In some it is used additionally as relative, without differentiation in Anatolian, with it in Italic (e.g. Lat. quoopposed to quis), Tocharian, later Celtic and Germanic; the other group, comprising Aryan, Greek, Phrygian and Slavic kept using the PIE relative pronoun jo- (<*Hjo-), from the anaphoric root i-; cf. Gk. hós, hē, ho, Skr. yás, yā, yad, Av. ya-, Phryg. ios, Sla. i-že, Cel. io, Goth ja-bai, maybe Hitt. ya, Toch. A yo. Despite Szemerényi (1970), who considers it mainly a Southern innovation, only Proto-Italic shows no traces of the common PIE relative, and because of that it is generally considered lost in that branch, not an innovation of the others; hence its specialized use in MIE. Relatives qi-/qo- are found in Anat., Bal., Toch., Lat. and Gmc. It is used for indirect interrogatives, cf. O.H.G. ni weistu hwaz ih sagen thir, ‘you don’t know what I say to you’; and for indefinites, cf. Lat. pecuniam quis nancitor habeto, ‘fortune, who acquires it own it’.

6.8.2. MIE general Relative Pronoun jos, jā, jod, the o-stem derivative from i-, is inflected like so, sā, tod.

6.9. OTHER PRONOUNS 6.9.1. Identity pronouns are those generally called intensifiers or emphatic pronouns, expressions like Eng. ‘x-self’ (himself, herself, myself, oneself, etc.), Ger. selbst, selber, Lat. ipse, Ita. stesso or Russ. sam. Proto-Indo-European formations that function as identity pronouns stem from a common epe, self; as, se epse, s(w)el (e)pe, -self. NOTE. cf. Hitt. apāsila, O.Lat. sapsa, sumpse, ipse, Goth. silba, O.Ir. fessin, fadessin (>féin), Russ. сам.

6.9.2. Oppositive pronouns are usually derived from suffix -tero-; as, qóteros? which of two? íteros, another, álteros, the other one, próteros, first (of two). NOTE. For qóteros, cf. Lat uter, O.Eng. hwæðer (Eng. whether), Lith kataràs, OCS koteryjĭ, Gk. póteros, Skr. katará-; from this word is common Latin loan ‘neuter’, MIE neqóteros, “neither one nor the other”. For sṇterí, missing, cf. Gmc. *sun-dr- (e.g. Ger. sonder), Gk ατερ, O.Ind. sanutar, from sṇi, apart, cf. Lat. sine, “without”, O.Sla. svene, O.Ir. sain, “different”.

6.9.3. Adjectival pronouns include identity as well as oppositive pronouns; as, somós, the same, or aljos, onjos, the other. NOTE. Such nominal forms, properly categorized as vaguely belonging to the field of pronuns, receive pronominal inflection. For adj. somós, equal, same, cf. Gmc. *samaz, Gk. ὁμός, ὁμοῦ,

ὁμαλός, Skr. samaḥ, Av. hama, O.C.S. самъ, O.Ir. som. Indo-European Language Association

7. VERBS 7.1. INTRODUCTION 7.1.1. VOICE, MOOD, TENSE, PERSON, NUMBER 1. The inflection of the Verb is called its Conjugation. 2. Through its conjugation the Verb expresses Voice, Mood, Tense, Person and Number. 3. The Voices are two: Active and Middle (or Middle-Passive). 4. The Moods were up to five: Indicative (plain statement of objective fact) and Imperative (commands) are the oldest ones, while the Optative (intentions or hoped for action) is from Late PIE, and still more recent the Subjunctive (potentiality, possibility); an Injunctive (perhaps mild commands or prohibitions) is also reconstructed. 5. The General Tenses are three, viz.: a. The Present. b. The Past or Preterite. c. The Future. NOTE. The Future Stem is generally believed to have appeared in Late PIE, not being able to spread to some dialects before the general split of the proto-languages; the distinction between a Present and a Future tense, however, is common to all IE languages.

6. The Aspects were up to three: a. For continued, not completed action, the Present. b. For the state derived from the action, the Perfect. c. For completed action, the Aorist. NOTE 1. There is some confusion on whether the Aorist (from Gk. αοριστος, “indefinite or unlimited”) is a tense or an aspect. This reflects the double nature of the aorist in Ancient Greek. In the indicative, the Ancient Greek aorist represents a combination of tense and aspect: past tense, perfective aspect. In other moods (subjunctive, optative and imperative), however, as well as in the infinitive and (largely) the participle, the aorist is purely aspectual, with no reference to

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN any particular tense. Modern Greek has inherited the same system. In Proto-Indo-European, the aorist was originally just an aspect, but before the split of Late PIE dialects it was already spread as a combination of tense and aspect, just as in Ancient Greek, since a similar system is also found in Sanskrit. NOTE 2. The original meanings of the past tenses (Aorist, Perfect and Imperfect) are often assumed to match their meanings in Greek. That is, the Aorist represents a single action in the past, viewed as a discrete event; the Imperfect represents a repeated past action or a past action viewed as extending over time, with the focus on some point in the middle of the action; and the Perfect represents a present state resulting from a past action. This corresponds, approximately, to the English distinction between “I ate”, “I was eating” and “I have eaten”, respectively. Note that the English “I have eaten” often has the meaning, or at least the strong implication, of “I am in the state resulting from having eaten”, in other words “I am now full”. Similarly, “I have sent the letter” means approximately “The letter is now (in the state of having been) sent”. However, the Greek, and presumably PIE, perfect, more strongly emphasizes the state resulting from an action, rather than the action itself, and can shade into a present tense. In Greek the difference between the present, aorist and perfect tenses when used outside of the indicative (that is, in the subjunctive, optative, imperative, infinitive and participles) is almost entirely one of grammatical aspect, not of tense. That is, the aorist refers to a simple action, the present to an ongoing action, and the perfect to a state resulting from a previous action. An aorist infinitive or imperative, for example, does not refer to a past action, and in fact for many verbs (e.g. “kill”) would likely be more common than a present infinitive or imperative. In some participial constructions, however, an aorist participle can have either a tensal or aspectual meaning. It is assumed that this distinction of aspect was the original significance of the Early PIE “tenses”, rather than any actual tense distinction, and that tense distinctions were originally indicated by means of adverbs, as in Chinese. However, it appears that by Late PIE, the different tenses had already acquired a tensal meaning in particular contexts, as in Greek, and in later IndoEuropean languages this became dominant. The meanings of the three tenses in the oldest Vedic Sanskrit, however, differs somewhat from their meanings in Greek, and thus it is not clear whether the PIE meanings corresponded exactly to the Greek meanings. In particular, the Vedic imperfect had a meaning that was close to the Greek aorist, and the Vedic aorist had a meaning that was close to the Greek perfect. Meanwhile, the Vedic perfect was often indistinguishable from a present tense (Whitney 1924). In the moods other than the indicative, the present, aorist and perfect were almost indistinguishable from each other. The lack of semantic distinction between different grammatical forms in a literary language often indicates that some of these forms no longer existed in the spoken language of the time. In

Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs fact, in Classical Sanskrit, the subjunctive dropped out, as did all tenses of the optative and imperative other than the present; meanwhile, in the indicative the imperfect, aorist and perfect became largely interchangeable, and in later Classical Sanskrit, all three could be freely replaced by a participial construction. All of these developments appear to reflect changes in spoken Middle Indo-Aryan; among the past tenses, for example, only the aorist survived into early Middle IndoAryan, which was later displaced by a participial past tense.

7. There are four IE Verbal Stems we will deal with in this grammar: I. The Present Stem, which gives the Present with primary endings and the Imperfect with secondary endings. II. The Aorist Stem, always Past, with secondary endings, giving the Aorist, usually in zero-grade, with dialectal augment and sometimes reduplication. III. The Perfect Stem, giving the Perfect, only later specialized in Present and Past. IV. The Future Stem, an innovation of Late PIE. NOTE. From the point of view of most scholars, then, from this original PIE verbal system, the Aorist merged with the Imperfect Stem in Balto-Slavic, and further with the Perfect Stem in Germanic, Italic, Celtic and Tocharian dialects. The Aorist, meaning the completed action, is then reconstructed as a third PIE tense-aspect, following mainly the findings of Old Indian, Greek, and also – mixed with the Imperfect and Perfect Stems – Latin.

8. The Persons are three: First, Second, and Third. 9. The Numbers in Modern Indo-European are two: Singular and Plural, and it is the only common class with the name. It is marked very differently, though. NOTE. The reconstructed Dual, as in nouns, whether an innovation or (unlikely) an archaism of Late Proto-Indo-European dialects, is not systematized in MIE, due to its limited dialectal spread and early disappearance

7.1.2. NOUN AND ADJECTIVE FORMS 1. The following Noun and Adjective forms are also included in the inflection of the Indo-European Verb: A. Verbal Nouns existed in Proto-Indo-European, but there is no single common prototype for a PIE Infinitive, as they were originally nouns which later entered the

195

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

verbal conjugation and began to be inflected as verbs. There are some successful infinitive endings, though, that will be later explained. NOTE 1. It is common to most IE languages that a special case-form (usually dative or accusative) of the verbal nouns froze, thus entering the verbal inflection and becoming infinitives. Although some endings of those successful precedents of the infinitives may be reproduced with some certainty for PIE, the (later selected) dialectal case-forms may not, as no general pattern is found. NOTE 2. A common practice in Proto-Indo-European manuals (following the Latin tradition) is to name the verbs conjugated in first person present, e.g. esmi, I am, for the verb es-, to be, or bherō (probably from an older Athematic bhermi), I carry, for the verb bher-, to carry.

B. The Participles are older adjectives which were later included in the verbal inflection. I. The oldest known is the Present Participle, in -nt-. II. The Perfect Participle, more recent, shows multiple endings, as -wes-/-wos-. III. Middle Participles, an innovation in Late PIE, end in -meno-, -mṇo-; and also some in -to-, -no-, -lo-, -mo-, etc. C. The Gerund and the Absolutive, not generalized in Late PIE, indicated possibility or necessity. 2. The Participles are used as follows: A. The Present Participle has commonly the same meaning and use as the English participle in -ing; as, bheronts, calling, sont, being. NOTE. Some questions about the participles are not easily conciled: in Latin, they are formed with e ending for stems in -i-; in Greek, they are formed in o and are consonantal stems. Greek, on the other hand, still shows remains of the thematic vowel in participles of verba vocalia -ājont-, ējont-, etc. Latin doesn’t.

B. The Perfect Participle has two uses: I. It is sometimes equivalent to the English perfect passive participle; as, tegtós, sheltered, klaustós, closed, and often has simply an adjective meaning. II. It is used with the verb es-, to be, to form the static passive; as, gnōtós esti, it is known. Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs NOTE. The static passive is a new independent formation of many Indo-European dialects, not common to Late PIE, but a common resource of North-West Indo-European, easily loan translated from Romance, Germanic and Balto-Slavic languages into Modern Indo-European as auxiliary verb to be + perfect participle.

C. The Gerundive is often used as an adjective implying obligation, necessity, or propriety (ought or must); as, awisdhíjendhos esti, he must be heard. NOTE. The verb is usually at the end of the sentence, as in Latin, Greek and Sanskrit. In Hittite, it is behind the particles (up to seven in succession). In Old Irish it was either at the beginning of the sentence or in second place after a particle. For more on this, see PIE Syntax.

7.1.3. VOICES 1. In grammar, Voice is the relationship between the action or state expressed by a verb and its arguments. When the subject is the agent or actor of the verb, the verb is said to be in the Active. When the subject is the patient or target of the action, it is said to be in the Passive. 2. The Active and Middle (or Mediopassive) Voices in Modern Indo-European generally correspond to the active and passive in English, but: a. The Middle voice often has a reflexive meaning. It generally refers to an action whose object is the subject, or an action in which the subject has an interest or a special participation: gnāskai (only middle), I am born. wéstijontoi, they dress (themselves), they get dressed. NOTE. This reflexive sense could also carry a sense of benefaction for the subject, as in the sentence “I sacrificed a goat (for my own benefit)”. These constructions would have used the active form of “sacrificed” when the action was performed for some reason other than the subject’s benefit.

b. The Mediopassive with Passive endings (in -r) is reserved for a very specific use in Modern Indo-European, the Dynamic or Eventive passives; as moiros píngetor, the wall is being painted, someone paints the wall, lit. “the wall paints (+ impersonal mark)”. stoighōs péwontor, streets are being cleaned, someone cleans the streets. 197

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE 1. The dynamic passive usually means that an action is done, while the static or stative passive means that the action was done at a point in time, that it is already made. The last is obtained in MIE (as usually in Germanic, Romance and Balto-Slavic dialects) with a periphrasis, including the verb es, be. Following the above examples: moiros pigtósi esti, the wall (is) [already] painted. stoighōs pūtṓs senti, the streets (are) cleaned. i

The infix -n is lost outside the Present Stem; thus, the Participle is not pingtós, but pigtós.

Nevertheless, when the n is part of the Basic Stem, it remains. See the Verbal Stems for more details on the Nasal Infix. NOTE 2. The Modern Indo-European Passive Voice endings (in -r) are older Impersonal and PIE Middle Voice alternative endings, found in Italic, Celtic, Tocharian, Germanic, Indo-Iranian and Anatolian, later dialectally specialized for the passive in some of those dialects. The concepts underlying modern IE Passives are, though, general to the Northern dialects (although differently expressed in Germanic and Balto-Slavic), and therefore MIE needs a common translation to express it. For the stative passive, the use of the verb es-, to be, is common, but dynamic passives have different formations in each dialect. The specialized Mediopassive dialectal endings seems thus the best option keeping thus tradition and unity, v.i.

c. Some verbs are only active; as, esmi, be, edmi, eat, or dōmi, give. d. Many verbs are middle in form, but active or reflexive in meaning. These are called Deponents; as, keimai, lie, lay; séqomai, follow, etc.

7.1.4. MOODS 1. While the oldest PIE had possibly only Indicative and Imperative, a Subjunctive and an Optative were added in Late Proto-Indo-European, both used in the Present, Perfect and Aorist. Not all dialects, however, developed those new formations further. 2. The Imperative is usually formed with a pure stem, adding sometimes adverbial or pronominal elements. 3. Some common Subjunctive marks are the stem endings -ā, -ē, and -s, but it is more usually formed with the opposition Indicative Athematic vs. Subjunctive Thematic, or Indicative Thematic vs. Subjunctive Thematic with lengthened vowel.

Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs

4. The Optative is differentiated from the Subjunctive by its characteristic suffix -jē/-ī; in thematic Tenses it is -oi, i.e. originally the same Subjunctive suffix added to the thematic vowel -o-. 5. The Moods are used as follows: a. The Indicative Mood is used for most direct assertions and interrogations. b. The Subjunctive Mood has many idiomatic uses, as in commands, conditions, and various dependent clauses. It is often translated by the English Indicative; frequently by means of the auxiliaries may, might, would, should; sometimes by the (rare) Subjunctive; sometimes by the Infinitive; and often by the Imperative, especially in prohibitions. c. The Imperative is used for exhortation, entreaty, or command; but the Subjunctive could be used instead. d. The Infinitive is used chiefly as an indeclinable noun, as the subject or complement of another verb.

7.1.5. TENSES OF THE FINITE VERB 1. The Tenses of the Indicative have, in general, the same meaning as the corresponding tenses in English: a. Of continued action, I. Present: bherō, I bear, I am bearing, I do bear. II. Imperfect: bheróm, I was bearing. III. Future: bhersjō, I shall bear. b. Of completed action or the state derived from the action, IV. Perfect: (bhé)bhora, I have borne. V. Aorist: (é)bheróm, I bore. NOTE. Although the Aorist formation was probably generalized in Late PIE, Augment is a dialectal feature only found in Ind.-Ira., Gk., Arm and Phryg. The great success of that particular augment (similar to other additions, like Lat. per- or Gmc. ga-) happened apparently later in the Southern proto-languages. Vedic Sanskrit clearly shows that Augment was not obligatory, and for Proto-Greek, cf. Mycenaean do-ke/a-pe-do-ke, Myc. qi-ri-ja-to, Hom. Gk. πριατο, etc.

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

7.2. FORMS OF THE VERB 7.2.1. THE VERBAL STEMS 1. The Forms of the verb may be referred to four basic Stems, called (1) the Present, (2) the Aorist, (3) the Perfect and (4) the Future. NOTE. There are some characteristic forms of each stem, like the suffix -n- or -sko, which give mostly Present stems. Generally, though, forms give different stems only when opposed to others.

2. The different stems are used in the verbal conjugation as follows: STEMS

WHERE USED

Present

Present and Imperfect (Active and Middle)

Aorist

Aorist (Active and Middle)

Perfect

Perfect

Future

Future and Conditional

NOTE. Following Meier-Brügger (2003), “The actual verbal stem is in use either as the present stem, the aorist stem, or the perfect stem. The terms present, aorist and perfect all indicate aspect, which is a grammatical dimmension. The aorist stem indicates the perfective aspect. The present stem indicates the imperfective aspect. The perfect stem indicates a sort of resultative aspect (…) The present, aorist, or perfect stem forms the basis of the tempus-modus stem, which serves in the expression of the categories of tempus and modus, and is created through the addition of tempusmodus suffixes: Suffixes

Athematic

Thematic

Present

-Ø-

-e- + -Ø- = -e- in alternance with -o- + -Ø- = -o-

Subjunctive

-e- in alternance with -o-

-e- + -e- = -ē- in alternance with -o- + -o- = -ō-

Optative

-jeh1- in ablaut with -ih1-

-o- + -ih1- = -oi-

The stem with the suffix -Ø- is automatically the indicative stem. In the present and aorist systems, the injunctive and the imperative are both formed from, and attributed to, the indicative stem. With his use of the indicative stem, the speaker indicates that he attributes validity to the contents of his statement. Stems that are marked with the addition of -e- (in alternance with –o-) indicate the subjunctive; while those featuring the suffix -jeh1- (ablaut -ih1-) indicate the optative”.

Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs

3. There are some monothematic verbs, as esmi, to be, or edmi, eat – supposedly remains of the oldest PIE. And there are also some traces of recent or even nonexistent mood oppositions. To obtain this opposition there are not only reduplications, lengthenings and alternations, but also vowel changes and accent shifts. 4. Most Late PIE verbs are built with a series of derivational suffixes that alter the root meaning, creating Denominatives and Deverbatives. The first are derived from nouns and adjectives; as, torsējō, dry, “make dry”, from ters-, dry, or newājō, make new, from new-, new. The last are derived from verbs, as widējō, see, from weid-. NOTE. It is not clear whether these Deverbatives – Causatives, Desideratives, Intensives, Iteratives, etc. – are actually derivatives of older PIE roots, or are frozen remains, formed by compounds of older PIE independent verbs added to other verbs, the ones regarded as basic.

5. Reduplication is another common resource; it consists of the repetition of the root, either complete or abbreviated; as, sisdō, sit down, settle down, from sed-, sit, gígnōskō, know, from gnō-, mímnāskō, remember, from men-, think, etc. 6. Thematic e/o has no meaning in itself, but it helps to build different stems opposed to athematics. Thus, It can be used to oppose a) Indicative Athematic to Subjunctive Thematic, b) Present Thematic to Imperfect Athematic, c) Active to Middle voice, etc. Sometimes an accent shift helps to create a distinctive meaning, too. 7. Stems are inflected, as in the declension of nouns, with the help of vowel grade and endings or desinences.

7.2.2. VERB-ENDINGS 1. Every form of the finite verb is made up of two parts: I. The Stem. This is either the root or a modification or development of it. II. The Ending or Desinence, consisting of: a. The signs of Mood and Tense. b. The Personal Ending. So e.g. the root bher-, carry, lengthened as thematic future verb-stem bher-sje/o-, will carry, and by the addition of the personal primary ending -ti, becomes the meaningful bhér-sje-ti, he will carry. 201

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. The ending -ti, in turn, consists of the (probably) tense-sign -i and the personal ending of the third person singular, -t (Adrados 1996).

2. Verbal endings can thus define the verb Stem, Tense and Mood: DESINENCES

Passive

Secondary middle

Imperfect and Aorist (Middle)

NOTE. This table was partly taken from Fortson (2004).

3. The primary series indicates present and future, and -mi, -si, -ti, and 3rd Pl. -nti are the most obvious formations of Late PIE. The secondary endings indicate Past; as, -m, s, -t and 3rd Pl. -nt. The subjunctive and optative are usually marked with the secondary endings, but in the subjunctive primary desinences are attested sometimes. The imperative has Ø or special endings. NOTE. Although not easily reconstructed, Late PIE had already independent formations for the first and second person plural. However, there were probably no common endings used in all attested dialects, and therefore a selection has to be made for MIE, v.i.

They can also mark the person; those above mark the first, second and third person singular and third plural. Also, with thematic vowels, they mark the voice: -ti Active Primary | -t Active Secondary; -toi Middle Primary | -to Middle Secondary. 4. The Augment appears in Ind.-Ira., Gk., and Arm., to mark the Past Tense (i.e., the Aorist and the Imperfect). It was placed before the Stem, and consisted generally of a stressed é-, which is a dialectal Graeco-Aryan feature not generally used in MIE. NOTE. Some common variants existed, as lengthened ḗ-, cf. Gk. η<ē/ā and ω<ō, the so-called Wackernagel contractions of the Augment and the beginning of the verbal root, which happened already by 2000 BC. These are different from those which happened in Attic Greek by 1000 BC.

5. Modern Indo-European verbal endings, as they are formed by the signs for mood and tense combined with personal endings, may be organized in five series. Indo-European Language Association

NOTE 1. About the Active endings: 1) 1st P. Pl. them. endings -mo, -mos, are found in Italic (Lat. -mus), Celtic (O.Ir. *-mo or *-mos), Balto-Slavic (cf. Pruss. -mai, O.C.S. -mŭ<*-mo, *-mos or *mom), and from -mo- or -me-, in Germanic (cf. Goth. -m) and Indo-Iranian (cf. O.Ind. -ma). 2) 2nd P. Pl. ending athematic -the (<*-tHe) is only found differentiated in Old Indian, but this system is sometimes considered the original, while the other dialects would have merged them into a common -te. 3) Dual endings are found in Ind.-Ira., Gk., BSl. and Gmc., but apart from a common 3rd P. Prim. -tom / Sec. -tām in O.Ind. and Gk., there is only a general (usually incomplete) paradigm 1st P. w-, 2nd & 3rd P. t-, with different lengthenings in -e/-o, -es/-os, -ā. NOTE 2. Original PIE Middle endings (output from the ‘stative voice’) were similar to the Perfect ONES; see Kortlandt’s . 1) The Middle secondary endings are easily reconstructed for the singular and the 3rd person plural, even though Toch. B -tai, -te, -nte still suggest to some (Neu 1968) that the original PIE were *-sai, *-tai, *-ntai, instead of the general opinion, -soi, -toi, -ntoi (cf. Gk. -oi). Dialectal Greek forms in the singular point to an alternative 1st P. -oi. 2) Greek, Indo-Iranian, and Anatolian dialects show Middle second plural forms in -medha (<*-medh-h2, O.Ind. -mahe, Gk. -metha, Toch. -ämtä-), -mesdha (<*-mesdh-h2, cf. Gk. -mestha, Hitt. -wašta-), PII -megha (cf. O.Ind. mahi), and -men, cf. Gk. men, Hitt. -wen-i. 3) 1st P. Pl. -mo(s)r, Lat. -mur, and -me(s)dhar (Hitt. -wašta-r-i, Toch. mt(t)ä-r), and 2nd P. Pl. Osc. -ter, Hitt. -ttumari, Toch. -cär (<-dhwer, cf. Toch. -t<-dhwe). Italic, Celtic, Tocharian, and Phrygian had Mediopassive Primary Endings in -r (cf. Lat. -tur, O.Ir. -tha(i)r, Toch. -tär, Phryg. -tor), whilst others had the general -i (cf. Skr., Av. -te, Gk., Toch. tai, Goth. -da, Bal. -tai), coexisting in Indo-Iranian (with -r as injunctive) and in Anatolian, where both were combined (cf. Hitt. -ta-r-i, nta-r-i). It is thought that -r was the Primary Middle marker (from an original Impersonal value), corresponding to the -i of the active. Both Mediopassive endings (-r and -i) coexisted already in the earliest reconstructible PIE, and -i probably replaced the old impersonal -r as the general Middle marker already by Late PIE. In the Northern dialects r became specialized for the newer passive constructions or disappeared. Thus, following the need for clarity in Modern Indo-European, we reserve the PIE endings in -r for the dynamic passive (v.s.), and keep those in -i for the original Late PIE Middle Voice.

7. The secondary endings are actually a negative term opposed to the primaries. They may be opposed to the present or future of indicative, they may indicate indifference to tense, and they might also be used in Present. NOTE. It is generally accepted that the Secondary Endings appeared first, and then the primary marker -i (or the impersonal -r) was added to them. Being opposed to the newer formations, the older endings received a Preterite (or Past) value, and became then Secondary. Forms with secondary endings, not used with a Preterite value, are traditionally called Injunctives, and had mainly a modal value. The Injunctive seems to have never been an independent mood, though, but just another possible use of the original endings in Proto-Indo-European.

NOTE. An old Middle ending system Sg. -a, -ta , -o, Pl. -ro, and Primary -ai, -tai , -oi, or -ar, tar, -or, Pl. -ro-, is also reconstructed for PIE, from older *-h2e, *-th2e-, *-o, Pl. *-r. These alternative forms, identical to the perfect forms (v.s.), are usually said to be the output of the ‘stative voice’ (Jasanoff Hittite and the IE verb, 2003), and are not to be commonly used in MIE.

The Middle-Active Opposition is not always straightforward, as there are only-active and only-middle verbs, as well as verbs with both voices but without semantic differences between them.

7.2.3. THE THEMATIC VOWEL 1. Stem vowels are – as in nouns – the vowel endings of the Stem, especially when they are derivatives. They may be i, u, ā, ē (and also ō in Roots). But the most extended stem vowel is e/o (also lengthened ē/ō), called Thematic Vowel, which existed in PIH before the split of the Anatolian dialects, and which had overshadowed the (older) athematic stems already by Late PIE. The thematization of stems, so to speak, relegated the athematic forms especially to the aorist and to the perfect; many old athematics, even those in -ā- and -ē-, are usually found extended with thematic endings -je/o-. NOTE. The old thematics were usually remade, but there are some which resisted this trend; as edmi, I eat, dōti, he gives, or idhi! go!

The stem vowel has sometimes a meaning, as with -ē- and -ā-, which can indicate state. There are also some old specializations of meanings, based on oppositions: a. Thematic vs. Athematic: - Athematic Indicative vs. Thematic Subjunctive. The contrary is rare. 205

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

- Thematic Present vs. Athematic Aorist, and vice versa. - Thematic 1st Person Sg. & Pl. and 3rd Person Pl., and Athematic the rest. - It may also be found in the Middle-Active voice opposition. b. Thematic stem with variants: - The first person, thematic in lengthened -ō. - Thematic o in 1st Person Sg. & Pl. and 3rd Person Pl.; e in 2nd and 3rd Person Sg. and 2nd Pl. There are also archaic 3rd Person Pl. in e, as senti, they are. c. Opposition of Thematic stems. This is obtained with different vowel grades of the root and by the accent position. 2. In the Semithematic inflection the Athematic forms alternate with Thematic ones. NOTE. The semithematic is for some an innovation of Late PIE, which didn’t reach some of the dialects, while for other scholars it represents a situation in which the opposition ThematicAthematic and the Accent Shifts of an older PIE system had been forgotten, leaving only some mixed remains into a generalized Late PIE regular Thematic verbal system.

7.2.4. VERB CREATION 1. With Verb Creation we refer to the way verbs are created from Nouns and other Verbs by adding suffixes and through reduplication of stems. 2. There are generally two kinds of suffixes: Root and Derivative; they are so classified because they are primarily added to the Roots or to Derivatives of them. Most of the suffixes we have seen (like -u, -i, -n, -s, etc.) are root suffixes. Derivative suffixes may be: a. Denominatives, which help create new verbs from nouns and adjectives; as, -je/o-. b. Deverbatives, those which help create new verbs from other verbs; as, -ei- (plus root vocalism o), -i-, -s-, -sk-, -ā-, -ē- etc. 3. Reduplication is a common resource of many modern languages. It generally serves to indicate intensity or repetition in nouns, and in the Proto-Indo-European verb it had two main uses:

Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs

a. It helped create a Deverbative, opposed to root verbs, generally in the Present, especially in Intensives, and usually involving nearly the entire root; as, dṛdrājō or mṛmrājō, murmur, gálgaljō, talk. NOTE. It is doubtful whether these are remains of an older system based on the opposition Root/Deverbative, prior to the more complicated developments of Late PIE in suffixes and endings, or, on the contrary, it is the influence of (thus earlier) noun derivations.

b. Essentially, though, reduplication has lost its old value and marks the different stems, whether Present, Aorist or Perfect. There are some rules in reduplication: - In the Present, it is combined with roots and stress; as, bhíbher-mi, gígnō-mi, etc. NOTE. There are old reduplicates with Desiderative meaning, which conveys “the subject’s desire to bring about a state of affairs” in i, like wi-wṇ-sṓ, would like to win, from wen-, to overpower, win.

- In the Perfect, combined with root vocalism and special (Perfect) endings; as, bhébhor-a, gé-gon-a, etc. NOTE. Reduplicated Perfects show usually o-grade root vowel (as in Gk., Gmc. and O.Ind.), but there are exceptions with zero-grade vocalism, cf. Lat. tutudi, Gk. mémikha, tétaka, gégaa.

- Full reduplications of Intensives (cf. mr-mr-, gal-gal-) are different from simple reduplications of verbal Stems, which are formed by the initial consonant and i in the Present (cf. bhi-bher-, mi-mno-, pí-bo-), or e in the Perfect and in the Aorist (cf. bhe-bher-, gé-gon-, ké-klou-). NOTE. In other cases, reduplicated stems might be opposed, for example, to the Aorist to form Perfects or vice versa, or to disambiguate other elements of the stem or ending. Intensives carry the notion of “repeated bringing about of a state of affairs”, and a prime example is qer-qṛ-, doing again and again, from qer-, cut (off).

4. Common derivational suffixes include the following: NOTE. Descriptions are taken from LIV (1998); some examples from Piotr Gąsiorowski’s . See §7.4 for more.

a. Transitive Intensives of a different kind involve the suffix -ā (<*-eh2-/*-h2-), added to the weak form of a root to produce athematic verbs, indicating “the entry of the subject into a new state of being”; as, mn- (<*mn-eh2-), be mindful of, duk-, lead.

207

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

b. The suffix -je/o- forms thematic Durative verbs, conveying “a subject’s state of being without stressing the entry of the subject into the state of being”; as, spekjō, view, regard, kapjō, take, seize, mṛsjō, not heed, ignore (from mors-, forget). From nouns, as oqjō, to eye (from oqos, eye, cf. oqō, see), nomnjō, name. c. Suffix -ēje/o-, usually added to -o- grade roots, formed Causatives/Iterative stems, which indicate “a cause of bringing about a state of affairs, or the repeated bringing about of a state of affairs”; as, monējō, “make think”, warn, remind, sedējō, be sitting, bhoudhējō, wake somebody up (cf. bheudhō, awake), ṛghējō, incite (cf. argujo, reason, discuss), etc. d. The nasal suffix -néu-/-nu-, usually enforcing the weak vocalism of the root, produces (often transitive and vaguely causative) athematic verbs that refer to the beginning or termination of an action (the so-called Inchoatives), or suggest that something is done once (rather than repeated). A rarer variant of this pattern involves nu- formations with stress alternating between the full-vowelled root and the inflection. A closely related formation involves verbs in -nā- (<*-náh2-/*-nh2-); as, ṛneumi, set in motion, move (from *h1or- ‘rise, move’), rékneumi, range. e. Similar functions can be attributed to the so-called nasal infix -né-/-n-, which is normally inserted after a liquid or semivowel (R = w, j, r, l) in CeRC- roots, producing the characteristic alternation CR-né-C-/CR-n-C-, preserved in Indo-Iranian; as, linéq/linq-, abandon, release, (from leiq-), junég-/jung-, join, connect (from jeug-), etc. f. The suffix -ske/o-, usually added to zero-grade bases, forms Iterative (or Inchoative) stems; as, cṃskṓ, walk about (cf. cemjō, come), pṛkskṓ, ask repeatedly, gnōskō, know. Also with reduplication; as, cícṃskō, gígnōskō. Its common variant is -iske/o-. Apparently, the same -ske/o- can also produce Denonimal duratives like medhuskō, get drunk (from medhu, mead, intoxicating drink) or wodskō, wash (from wod-, water). g. The suffix -āje/o- added to adjectives produces Factitives, meaning ‘make something’; as, newājō, make new, renew, nomnājō, name, sedājo, settle. h. The suffix -ē-, and the combinations -ē-s-, -ē-ske/o-, yield intransitive verbs denoting change of state (‘become X’); as, roudhēskō, turn red, senēskō, get old.

7.2.5. SEPARABLE VERBS 1. A Separable Verb is a verb that is composed of a Verb Stem and a Separable Affix. In some verb forms, the verb appears in one word, whilst in others the verb stem and the affix are separated. NOTE. A Prefix is a type of affix that precedes the morphemes to which it can attach. A separable affix is an affix that can be detached from the word it attaches to and located elsewhere in the sentence in a certain situation.

2. Many Modern Indo-European verbs are separable verbs, as in Homeric Greek, in Hittite, in the oldest Vedic and in modern German ‘trennbare Verben’. Thus, e.g. the (Latin) verb supplāktum, beg humbly, supplicate (adj. supplāks, suppliant, verb plākējō, advise, persuade), gives sup wos plākējō (cf. O.Lat. sub uos placō), I entreat you, and not *wos supplakējō, as Classic Lat. uos supplicō. NOTE. German is well known for having many separable affixes. In the sentence Ger. Ich komme gut zu Hause an the prefix an in the verb ankommen is detached. However, in the participle, as in Er ist angekommen, “He has arrived”, it is not separated. In Dutch, compare Hij is aangekomen, “He has arrived”, but Ik kom morgen aan, I shall arrive tomorrow. English has many phrasal or compound verb forms that act in this way. For example, the adverb (or adverbial particle) up in the phrasal verb to screw up can appear after the subject (“things”) in the sentence: “He is always screwing things up”.

Non-personal forms, i.e. Nouns and Adjectives, form a compound (karmadharaya) with the preposition; as O.Ind. prasādaḥ, “favour”, Lat subsidium, praesidium, O.Ind. apaciti, Gk. apotisis , “reprisal”, etc. NOTE. There are, indeed, many non-separable verbs, those formed with non-separable prefixes.

7.3. THE CONJUGATIONS 7.3.1. Conjugation is the traditional name of a group of verbs that share a similar conjugation pattern in a particular language, a Verb Class. This is the sense in which we say that Modern Indo-European verbs are divided into twelve Regular Conjugations; it means that any regular Modern Indo-European verb may be conjugated in any person, number, tense, mood and voice by knowing which of the twelve conjugation groups it belongs to, and its main stems.

209

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. The meaning of Regular and Irregular becomes, thus, a matter of choice, although the selection is obviously not free. We could have divided the verbs into ten conjugations, or twenty, or just two – Thematic and Athematic –, and then we would have left the variant verbs into a huge group of Irregulars. We believe that our choice is in the middle between a simplified system with many irregular conjugations – which would need in turn more data for the correct inflection of each verb –, and an extensive conjugation system – trying to include every possible inflection attested in Late PIE –, being thus too complicated and therefore difficult to learn. It is clear that the way a language is systematized influences its evolution; to avoid such artificial influence, typical of Classical languages (e.g. the innovations systematized by ancient grammarians in Sanskrit, Greek or Latin) we try to offer a natural approach to PIE, including the most common verbal classes as general conjugations, and leaving the most irregular verbs outside. A reference book for the classification of PIE verbs into conjugations is found in the Lexikon der indogermanischen Verben (2001), under the direction of H. Rix. Nevertheless, it features an old PIE reconstruction, with all attested athematic and thematic conjugations of Present, Aorist and Perfect stems, and it is therefore 1) too complex for a classical grammar, and 2) not applicable to a Late PIE early dialectal scheme, in which some athematic paradigms had been lost (or frozen into scarce, hence irregular examples), while newer verbs (and remade ones) further split within the thematic paradigms.

7.3.2. Modern Indo-European verbs are divided into two main Conjugation Groups: the Thematic, newer and abundant in Late PIE, and the old Athematic Verbs. These groups are, in turn, subdivided into eight and four subgroups respectively. NOTE. The fact that a PIE Root is of a certain type doesn’t imply necessarily that its derivatives (Stems derived from it) belong to a specific conjugation, as they might be found in different subgroups depending on the dialects (for Eng. love, cf. Lat. lubet, Skr. lubhyati, Gmc. liuban), and even within the same dialect (cf. Lat. scatō, scateō). That’s why e.g. Old Indian verbs are not enunciated by their personal forms, but by their roots.

A. THE THEMATIC CONJUGATION The First or Thematic Conjugation Group is formed by the following 8 subgroups: I. Root Verbs with root vowel e in the Present and o in the Perfect: a. Triliteral: deikō, dikóm, doika, deiksō, show, etc. b. Concave: teqō, teqóm, toqa/tōqa, teqsō, escape, séqomai, follow, etc. NOTE. For IE teqō, cf. O.Ir. téchid/táich(<e/ō).

II. Concave Root Verbs with non-regular Perfect vocalism. Different variants include: a. labhō, lābha, take; lawō, lāwa, enjoy, slabai, slāboma, fall (Middle Voice); aidai, praise. NOTE. Compare Gk. αιδομαι, O.ind. ile, Gmc. part. idja-. The first sentence of the Rigveda may already be translated to Modern Indo-European with the aforementioned verbs.

b. kano, kékana/kékāna, sing. c. legō, lēga, join, read, decide. d. lowō, lōwa, wash. e. rādō, rāda, shuffle, scrape, scratch. f. rēpō, rēpa, grab, rip out. g. rōdō, rōda, gnaw. III. Verba Vocalia, i.e., thematic --je/o-, -ḗ-je/o-, -í-je/o-, -ú-je/o-: a. amājō, love. b. lubhējō, love, desire. c. sāgijō, look for, search. d. argujō reason, argue (cf. Lat. arguō, Hitt. arkuwwai).

211

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

IV. Verbs in -je/o-: a. Triliteral: kupjō, kup(j)óm, koupa, keupsō, be worried. b. Concave: jakjō, jēka, throw. c. Lamed-he: parjō, pepra/péprōka, produce. d. Reduplicated Intensives: kárkarjō, proclaim, announce (cf. Gk. καρκαίρω, but Skr. carkarti). NOTE. Examples of thematic reduplicated intensives include common forms like Greek

πορφυρω, παμπαινω, γαργαιρω, μορμορω, μερμηριζω, καγχαλαω, μαρμαιρω, δενδιλλω, λαλεω, and, in other IE dialects, Slavic glagoljo, Latin (‘broken’ reduplication with different variants) bombico, bombio, cachinno, cacillo, cracerro, crocito, cucullio, cucurrio, curculio, didintrio, lallo, imbubino, murmillo, palpor, pipito, plipio, pipio, tetrinnio, tetrissito, tintinnio, titio, titubo, etc.

V. Intensives-Inchoatives in -ske/o-: a. Of Mobile Suffix: swēdhskō, swēdhjóm, swēdhwa, swēdhsō, get used to. b. Of Permanent Suffix: pṛkskṓ, inquire. VI. With nasal infix or suffix: a. Perfect with o vocalism: jungō, jugóm, jouga, jeugsō, join. b. Reduplicated Perfect: tundō, tét(o)uda/tút(o)uda, strike. c. Convex: bhrangō, bhrēga, break. d. Nasal Infix and Perfect with o root: gusnō, gousa (cf. Lat. dēgūnō, dēgustus) e. Nasal Infix and Reduplicated Perfect: cf. Lat. tollō, sustulii (supsi+tét-), lift. VII. With Reduplicated Present: a. sisō, sēwa, sow. b. gignō, gegna, gégnāka, produce. VIII. Other Thematics: o pḷdō, pép(o)la. o widējō, woida, see. o etc.

B. THE ATHEMATIC CONJUGATION Verbs of the Second or Athematic Conjugation Group may be subdivided into: I. Monosyllabic: a. In Consonant: esmi, be, edmi, eat, ēsmai, find oneself, be. b. In ā (i.e. PIH *h2): snāmi, swim, bhamai, speak. c. In ē (i.e. PIH *h1): bhlēmi, cry, (s)remai, calculate. d. With Nasal infix: leiq- (lineqti/linqṇti), leave, kleu- (kḷneuti/kḷnunti), hear, peu- (punāti/punānti), purify, etc. NOTE. These verbal types appear mostly in Indo-Iranian and Hittite examples, and could therefore be more properly included in the suffixed (BIVc) type below.

e. Others: eími, go, etc. II. Reduplicated: a. (sí)stāmi, stand. b. (dhí)dhēmi, set, place, c. (jí)jēmi, throw, expel. d. (dí)dōmi, give. e. (bhí)bheimi, fear. f. kíkumi/kuwóm/kékuwa, strengthen. III. Bisyllabic: a. wémāmi, vomit. NOTE. These verbal types appear mostly in Indo-Iranian and Hittite examples, and could therefore be more properly included in the suffixed (BIVc) type below.

b. bhélumi, weaken, (cf. Goth. bliggwan, “whip”). NOTE. This verb might possibly be more correctly classified as bhelujō, within the Verba Vocalia, type AIIId in -u-jo- of the Thematic Group.

IV. Suffixed: a. In -nā- (
A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. For these verbs Old Indian shows zero-grade root vowel and alternating suffixes. Greek shows the opposite behaviour, which should be preferred in MIE because of its ease of use.

7.4. THE FOUR STEMS 7.4.1. THE FOUR STEMS 1. The Stems of the Present may be: I. Roots, especially Thematic, but also Athematic and Semithematic. II. Reduplicated Roots, especially Athematic. III. Consonantal stems, all Thematic. They may end in occlusive, or -s and its lengthenings, like -ske/o-; as, pṛk-skṓ, ask, ask for, from zero-grade of prek-, ask. IV. In Vowel, Thematic in -i-, -u-, and Athematic in -ā, -ē. V. In Nasal, Thematic and Athematic (especially in -neu-/-nu-, -nā-/-na-). 2. The Aorist Stem is opposed to the Present: A. Aorist Athematic Roots vs. Present Roots and Reduplicates. B. Aorist Thematic Roots vs. Athematic Presents. C. Aorist Thematic Reduplicated Roots vs. Athematic Reduplicated Present. D. Aorist with -s- and its lengthenings, both Thematic & Athematic. E. Aorist with -t- and -k- are rare, as Lat. feci. F. Aorist with -ā-, -ē-, and -i-, -u-, & their lengthenings. 3. The Stems of the Perfect have usually root vowel /Ø, with dialectal reduplication – mainly Indo-Iranian and Greek –, and some especial endings. 4. Modern Indo-European uses a general Future Stem with a suffix -s-, usually Thematic -se/o-. NOTE. The future might also be formed with the present in some situations, as in English I go to the museum, which could mean I am going to the museum or I will go to the museum. The Present is, thus, a simple way of creating (especially immediate) future sentences in most modern Indo-European languages, as it was already in Late PIE times.

Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs

5. To sum up, there are four inflected Stems, but each one has in turn five inflected forms (Indicative, Imperative, Subjunctive, Optative and Participle), and one not inflected (Verbal Noun). Verbal inflection is made with desinences (including Ø), which indicate Person, Time and Voice. The person is thus combined with the other two. NOTE. The imperfect stem had neither a subjunctive nor an optative formation in Late PIE.

An example of the four stems are (for PIE verbal root leiq-, leave) leiq-e/o- (or nasal li-n-eq-e/o-) for the Present, (é)liq-é/ó- for the Aorist, (lé-)loiq- for the Perfect, and leiq-sje/o- for the Future. 7.4.2. THE PRESENT STEM I. PRESENT STEM FORMATION PARADIGM 1. Verbal Roots (Athematic, Semithematic and Thematic) were not very common in Late PIE. They might have only one Stem, or they might have multiple Stems opposed to each other. 2. Reduplicates are usually different depending on the stems: those ending in occlusive or -u- are derived from extended roots, and are used mainly in verbs; those in -s and -u are rare, and are mainly used for the remaining stems. 3. The most prolific stems in Late PIE were those ending in -i, -ē and -ā, closely related. Athematics in -ē- and -ā- have mostly Present uses (cf. dhídhēmi, do, sístāmi, stand), as Thematics in -ske/o- (as gnō-skō, know, pṛk-skṓ, ask, inquire) and Athematics or Thematics with nasal infix (i.e. in -n-, as li-n-eq-, leave, from leiq, or bhu-n-dho-, make aware, from bheudh-). II. PRESENT ROOT STEM 1. A pure Root Stem, with or without thematic vowel, can be used as a Present, opposed to the Aorist, Perfect and sometimes to the Future Stems. The Aorist Stem may also be Root, and it is then distinguished from the Present Stem with 1) vowel opposition, i.e., full grade, o-grade or zero-grade, 2) thematic vowel, or 3) with secondary phonetic differentiations (as accent shift).

215

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

Present verbal roots may be athematic, semithematic and thematic. The athematics were, in Late PIE, only the remains of an older system, as (probably) the semithematics. 2. In Monosyllabic Roots ending in consonant or sonant, the inflection is usually made: a. in the Active Voice Sg., with root vowel e and root accent b. in the Active and Middle Voice Pl., root vowel Ø and accent on the ending. The most common example is es-, be, which has a singular in es- and plural in s-. There are also other monosyllabic verbs, as chen-, strike, ed-, eat. Other roots, as eí-, go, follow this inflection too.

3. There is also another rare verbal type, Root Athematic with full or long root vowel and fixed root accent, usually called Proterodynamic. It appears frequently in the Middle Voice. 4. Monosyllabic Roots with Long Vowel (as dhē-, stā- or dō-) are inflected in Sg. with long vowel, and in Pl. and Middle with -a. They are rare in Present, usually reserved for the Aorist. The reconstructed PIH paradigm of stā- is given here for comparison.

7. Verbs NOTE. Most athematic verbs are usually reconstructed with a Mobile Stress paradigm (as in Sanskrit, or the oldest PIE), but we preserve the easier Greek columnar accent, a Late PIE trend similar to the nominal Mobile paradigm; it usually reads Late PIE dhidhamés, dhidhaté, dhidhanti, or didamés, didaté, didanti.

5. Disyllabic Roots which preserve an athematic inflection have the Present in full/Øvowel. The alternative Ø/full-vowel is generally reserved for the Aorist. 6. In the Semithematic Root Stem, the 3rd Person Pl. has often an ending preceded by the Thematic vowel e/o. That happens also in the 1st Person Sg., which often has -o or o-m(i); and in the 1st Person Pl., which may end in -o-mos, -o-mo. NOTE. In an old inflection like that of the verbal root es, i.e. esmi-smés, sometimes a Semithematic alternative is found. Compare the paradigm of the verb be in Latin, where zerograde and o vowel forms are found: s-omi (cf. Lat. sum), not es-mi; s-omos (cf. Lat. sumus), not s-me; and s-onti (cf. Lat. sunt), not s-enti. Such inflection, not limited to Latin, has had little success in the Indo-European verbal system, at least in the dialects that have been attested. There are, however, many examples of semithematic inflection in non-root verbs, what could mean that an independent semithematic inflection existed in PIE, or, on the contrary, that old athematic forms were remade and mixed with the newer thematic inflection (Adrados 1996).

7. Thematic verbal roots have generally an -e/o- added before the endings. Therefore, in Athematic stems -e/o- is not usually found, in Semithematics it is found in the 1st P.Sg. and Pl., and in Thematic stems it appears always. Thematic inflection shows two general formations: a. Root vowel e and root accent; as in déiketi, he/she/it shows. b. Root vowel Ø and accent on the thematic vowel, as in dikóm he/she/it showed. The first appears usually in the Present, and the second in the Aorist, although both could appear in any of them in PIE. In fact, when both appear in the Present, the a-type is usually a Durative – meaning an action not finished –, while b-type verbs are Terminatives or Punctuals – meaning the conclusion of the action. This semantic value is not general, though, and is often found in Graeco-Aryan dialects. NOTE. The newer inflection is, thus (in a singular/plural scheme), that of full/full vocalism for Present, Ø/Ø for Aorist. The (mainly) Root Athematic - and Semithematic - inflection in full/Ø appears to be older than the Thematic one. The Thematic inflection probably overshadowed the

217

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN Athematic and Semithematic ones by Late PIE, and there are lots of examples of coexisting formations, some of the newer being opposed to the older in meaning.

III. PRESENT REDUPLICATED STEM 1. Depending on its Formation, present stems may have either Full Reduplication, sometimes maintained throughout the conjugation, or Simple Reduplication, which normally consists of the initial consonant of the root followed by -i-. Depending on its Meaning, reduplication may have a general value (of Iteration or Intensity), or simply opposed values in individual pairs of Basic Verb-Deverbative. Therefore, it helps to distinguish the verb in its different forms. 2. How Reduplication is made: I. Full Reduplication, normally found in the Present Stem, repeats the Root or at least the group consonant/sonorant+vowel+consonant/sonorant; as, gal-gal-, talk, bherbher-, endure, mṛ-mṛ-, whisper, etc. Full reduplication is also that which repeats a Root with vowel+consonant/sonorant; as, ul-ul-, howl (cf. Lat. ululāre). II. Simple Reduplication is made: a. With consonant + i, - in Athematic verbs; as, bhi-bher-, carry (from bher-), - in Thematic verbs; as, gi-gnō-sko-, know (from gnō-), etc. si-sdo-, sit down, (from zero-grade of sed-, sit), - Some Intensives have half full, half simple Reduplication, as in dei-dik-, show (from deik-). - There are other forms with -w, -u, as in leu-luk-, shine (from leuk-, light). - There are also some Perfect stems with i. b. With consonant + e/ē, as dhe-dhē-, de-dō-, etc. Simple Reduplication in e appears mainly in the Perfect, while i is characteristic of Present stems. Reduplication in e is also often found in Intensives in southern dialects.

Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs NOTE. Formal reduplication in -i is optional in Modern Indo-European, as it is mostly a GraecoAryan feature; as, gignōskō/gnōskō, didō/dō, pibō/pō(i), etc. NOTE. Reduplication didn’t affect the different root vowel grades in inflection, and general rules were followed; as, bíbherti-bibhrmés, sístāmi-sistamés, etc.

3. The different Meaning of Reduplicates found in PIE are: - Indo-Iranian and Greek show a systematic opposition Basic Verb - Deverbative Reduplicated, to obtain an Iterative or Intensive verb. - Desideratives are Reduplicates with i + Root + -se/o-, as e.g. men- vs. mi-mṇ-so-, think. Such Reduplicates are called Terminatives. NOTE. Although the Iterative-Intensives, Desideratives and sometimes Terminatives did not succeed as usual resources in some North-West IE dialects, they are an old common resource of Late PIE, probably older than the opposition Present-Perfect, and wea probably alive to a certain degree in Europe’s IE times.

IV. PRESENT CONSONANT STEM 1. Indo-European Roots may be lengthened with an occlusive to give a verb stem, either general or Present-only. Such stems are usually made adding a dental -t-, -d-, -dh-, or a guttural -k-, -g-, -gh- (also -k-, -g-, -gh-), but only rarely with labials or labiovelars. They are all Thematic, and the lengthenings are added to the Root. NOTE. Such lengthenings were probably optional in an earlier stage of the language, before they became frozen as differentiated vocabulary by Late PIE. Some endings (like -ske/o-, -je/o-, etc.) were still optional in Late PIE, v.i. These lengthenings are considered by some linguists as equally possible root modifiers in Proto-Indo-European as those in -s-, -sk-, -n- (infix), -nu-, -nā-, etc. However, it is obvious that these ones (vide infra) appear more often, and that they appear usually as part of the conjugation, while the former become almost always part of the root and are modified accordingly. Whatever the nature and antiquity of all of them, those above are in Modern Indo-European usually just part of existing stems (i.e., part of the IE morphology), while the following extensions are often part of the conjugation.

3. Imperfect Stems in -s- and its derivatives, as -sk- and -st-, are almost all Thematic. NOTE. Thematic suffix -ste/o- has usually an Expressive sense, meaning sounds most of the times; as, bhṛstō, burst, break (from bhresjō, shatter).

219

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

4. Stems in -s have a common specialized use (opposed to Basic stems), marking the Preterite, the Future, and sometimes the Subjunctive. NOTE. Aorist stems in -s- are usually Athematic. Because of its common use in verbal inflection, deverbatives with a lengthening in -s- aren’t generally opposed in meaning to their basic stems. There may be found some individual meanings in such opposed stem pairs, though, already in Late PIE; as, Insistents or Iteratives (cf. wéid-se/o-, “want to see, go to see”, hence “visit”, as Lat. vīsere, Goth. gaweisōn, O.S. O.H.G. wīsōn, vs. Pres. wid-ḗje/o-, see, as Lat. vidēre), Causatives, and especially Desideratives (which were also used to form the Future stem in the Southern Dialect). There is, however, no general common meaning reserved for the extended stem in -s-. Compare also Lat. pressī <* pres-sai vs. Lat. premō; Lat. tremō vs. a Gk. τρεω<*tre-sō, O.Ind. trásate, ‘he is frightened’.

Thematic suffix -ske/o- is added to Roots in zero-grade, especially to monosyllabics and disyllabics; as, pṛk-skṓ (from prek-), cṃ-skṓ, (from cem-), gnō-skō (from gnō). It can also be added to Reduplicated stems, as dí-dk-skō (from dek-), gí-gnō-skō, and to lengthened Roots, especially in ī, u, ē, ā, as krē-skō (from ker-). Sometimes these Deverbatives show limited general patterns, creating especially Iteratives, but also Inchoatives, Causatives, and even Determinatives or Terminatives.

This lengthening in -sk- seems to have been part of Present-only stems in Late PIE; cf. Lat. flōrescō/flōruī, Gk. κικλησκω/κεκληκα, and so on. NOTE 1. Cases like IE verb pṛkskṓ, ask, demand (cf. O.H.G. forscōn, Ger. forschen, Lat. poscō>por(c)scō, O.Ind. pṛcch, Arm. harc’anem, O.Ir. arcu), which appear throughout the whole conjugation in different IE dialects, are apparently exceptions of the Late Proto-Indo-European verbal system; supporting a common formation of zero-grade root Iterative presents, compare also the form (e)ské/ó- (
B. Stems in -n- are said to have a nasal suffix or a nasal infix – if added within the root. They may be Athematic or Thematic, and the most common forms are -n, -neu-/-nu-, -

nā-: as in stṛ-neu-mi/ster-nu-ō, spread; li-n-eq-mi/li-n-q-ō, leave; mḷ-n-ājō, soften; dhre-n-g-ājō, hold; pu-n-g-ō, prik; bhu-n-dh-ō, be aware, pla-n-t-ājō, plant; etc. These verbs can be found also without the nasal suffix or infix, viz. streu-, leiq-, mlā-, dhreg-, peug-, plat-. There are other, not so common nasal formations; as, -ne/o-, and (possibly derived from inflected -neu- and -nei-) the forms -nwe/o-, -nje/o-. So for example in sperno-, scatter, plē-no-, fill. NOTE. These formations are very recent to Late Proto-Indo-European. In Greek it is frequent the nasal suffix -an-. Others as -nwe/o-, -nje/o-, appear often, too; as Gk. phthínuo, Goth. winnan (from *wenwan); Gk. iaíno, phaínomai (from bhā-) and O.Ind. verbs in -nyati.

V. PRESENT VOWEL STEM 1. Some roots and derivatives (deverbatives or denominatives) form the Thematic verb stems with -je/o-, and Semithematics in -ī, usually added to the stem in consonant. The preceding vowel may be an -ā-, -ē-, -i- or -u-, sometimes as part of the root or derivative, sometimes as part of the suffix. Possible suffixes in -je/o- are therefore also the so-called Verba Vocalia, -je/o-, -ḗje/o-, -íje/o-, and -úje/o-. NOTE 1. Verbs in -je/o- are usually classified as a different type of deverbatives (not included in verba vocalia); in these cases, the root grade is usually Ø; as, bhudhjō, wake up, from bheudh-; but the full grade is also possible, as in spekjō, look. NOTE 2. Deverbatives in -je/o- give usually Statives, and sometimes Causatives and Iteratives, which survive mainly in the European dialects (but cf. Gk. ωθεω, O.Ind. vadhayati, etc), as the especial secondary formation Causative-Iterative, with o-grade Root and suffix -je/o-, cf. from wes-, dress, Active wosḗjeti (cf. Hitt. waššizzi, Skr. vāsáiati, Ger. wazjan, Alb. vesh), from leuk, light, Active loukḗjeti (cf. Hitt. lukiizzi, Skr. rocáyati, Av. raočayeiti, O.Lat. lūmina lūcent), etc. There are also many deverbatives in -je/o- without a general meaning when opposed to its basic verb. The Thematic inflection of these verbs is regular, and was usually accompanied by the Semithematic inflection in the Northern dialects, but not in the Southern ones.

2. Thematic root verbs in -je/o- are old, but have coexisted with the semithematics je/o-/-i-/-ī-. These verbs may be deverbatives – normally Iteratives or Causatives – or Denominatives.

221

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. They served especially to form verbs from nouns and adjectives, as wesnóm, price, and wesnējō, value (cf. Skr. vasna-yá), nōmṇ, name, nōmnjō, name (cf. Gk. onomainō, Got. namnjan), or melit, honey, mḷitjō, take honey from the honeycomb (as Gk. blíttō), etc.

The deverbative inflection could have -je/o-, -ḗje/o-, or its semithematic variant. NOTE 1. The State or Status value of these verbs is a common IE feature mainly found today in Balto-Slavic dialects, with verbs in -ē- and -ā-, whose inflection is sometimes combined with thematic -je/o-. NOTE 2. About the usual distinction in IE manuals of -éje/o- vs. -ḗje/o-, the former is apparently attested in Anatolian, Indo-Iranian, Greek and Armenian (cf. Arm. Gen. siroy, “love”, sirem, “I love”<*keire-jé-); Greek loses the -j- and follows (as Latin) the rule ‘uocālis ante uocālem corripitur’, what helps metrics. However, Greek had probably a present with long ē (as in non-liquid future and perfect). Mycenaean doesn’t clarify the question; moreover, it is often accepted that forms like O.Ind. in -ayati are isolated. For pragmatic purposes, Modern IndoEuropean should follow always an ending -ḗje/o-, which fits better into a North-West IE reconstruction and into Western poetry, which follows the Classical Greek and Latin metrics, as it is not so easy to include lubhéjeti (with three syllables) in the common classic hexameter... However, for modern dialectal purposes (i.e. to write in Hellenic, Aryan or Anatolian) it is probably safe to assume a common, old PIE dialectal (and limited) trend to use -éje/o-.

3. Stems in -u- are rarely found in the Present, but are often found in the Preterite and Perfect stems. NOTE. Stems in -u- have, thus, an opposed behaviour to those in -i-, which are usually found in Present and rarely in Preterite and Perfect.

In Present stems, -u- is found in roots or as a suffix, whether thematic or athematic (but not semithematic), giving a stem that may normally appear as the general stem of the verb. It is therefore generally either part of the root or a stable lengthening of it. NOTE. Common exceptions to this general rule concerning Late PIE verbs in -u-, usually general stems, are different pairs gheu-/ghō-, pleu-/plō-, etc.

4. Root or stems in -ē-, Athematic or (usually) Thematic mixed with -i-. Sometimes the -ē- is part of the Root, sometimes it is a suffix added or substituting the -e- of the Stem. They may be verbs of State; as, albhējō, be white, with a stative value. There are also Iterative-Causatives; Denominatives are usually derived from thematic adjectives in e/o. NOTE. These are probably related to stems in -i- (i.e., in -je/o-).

Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs

Other examples include lubhējō, be dear, be pleasing; rudhējō, blush, redden; galējō, call (not denominative), monējō, remind, advise, senējō, be old, etc. 5. Roots or stems in -ā-, Athematic or mixed with -i-. They are spread throughout the general Verb system; as, bhā(jō), draw; dukā(jō), drag, draw; amā(jō), love, etc. NOTE. Some find apparently irregular formations as Lat. amō, “I love”, from an older amje/o-, mixed with -i-; however, they are sometimes reconstructed (viz. Adrados) as from *amō, i.e. in -ā without ending (cf. Lat. amas, amat,...); against it, compare common IE formations as Umb. suboca , “invoke”, Russ. délaiu, and so on.

About their Meaning, they may be (specially in Latin) Statives or Duratives, and sometimes Factitives opposed to Statives in -ē- (cf. Hitt. maršaḫ-marše-, Lat. clarāreclarēre, albāre-albēre, nigrāre-nigrēre, liquāre-liquēre). But there are also many deverbatives in -ā- without a special value opposed to the basic verb. Stems in -ā- help create Subjunctives, Aorists, and Imperfectives. -ā- is less commonly used than -ē- to make Iterative and Stative deverbatives and denominatives. NOTE. They are probably related to verbs in -i- (i.e. in -je/o-), as with stems in -ē-.

7.4.3. THE AORIST STEM I. AORIST STEM FORMATION PARADIGM 1. The Aorist describes a completed action in the past, at the moment when it is already finished, as e.g. Eng. I did send/had sent that e-mail before/when you appeared. NOTE. As opposed to the Aorist, the Imperfect refers to a durative action in the past (either not finished at that moment or not finished yet), as e.g. Eng. I sent/was sending the e-mail when you appeared.

2. The Aorist is made usually in Ø/Ø, Secondary Endings, Augment and sometimes Reduplication; as, 1st. P.Sg. (é)bheróm. NOTE. Augment was obviously obligatory neither in Imperfect nor in Aorist formations in Late PIE (cf. Oldest Greek and Vedic Sanskrit forms), but it is often shown in most PIE grammars because (Brugmannian) tradition in IE studies has made Augment obligatory for PIE, even if a) the Aorist was mostly a literary resource, b) only Greek and Sanskrit further specialized it, and c) only later made the Augment obligatory. Following Meier-Brügger, “The PIE augment *(h1)é was quite probably an adverb with the meaning ‘at that time’ and could be employed facultatively

223

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN where indicative forms of present and aorist stems were combined with secondary endings to produce a clear past tense (…) The establishment of the augment as a norm in the indicative aorist, indicative imperfect, and indicative pluperfect took place in a post-Proto-Indo-European phase. Other IE languages such as Latin or Germanic developed their own suffixal means of indicating past tense forms”. It is clear, then, that for a Modern Indo-European based on the North-West IE it would be more reasonable to select an ‘Augment’ (if we had to) in pro-, as common Celtic ro-, in kom-, as regular Germanic ga-, or in per- as frequently found in Latin, instead of the GraecoAryan in é-.

3. The opposition of Present and Preterite stems is made with: a. Present Reduplicated Root vs. Aorist Basic Root; as, sí-stā-mi, I stand, vs. stā-m, I stood; dhí-dhē-mi, I do, I put, vs. dhē-m, I did; b. Thematic Present vs. Athematic Aorist in -s; as, leiq-ō, I leave, lēiq-s-ṃ, I left. c. Both stems Thematic, but with different vowel grade, and often stress on the desinence; as, leiq-ō, I leave, liq-óm, I left. NOTE. Every stem could usually function as Present or Aorist in PIE, provided that they were opposed to each other. And there could be more than one Present and Aorist stem from the same Root; as, for Thematic Present leiq-ō, I leave, which shows two old formations, one Athematic extended lēiq-s-ṃ (the so-called sigmatic Aorist), and other Thematic zero-grade liq-óm.

4. There was a logical trend to specialize the roles of the different formations, so that those Stems which are rarely found in Present are usual in Aorists. For example, Thematic roots for the Present, and Aorists extended in (athematic) -s-. NOTE. In fact, there was actually only one confusion problem when distinguishing stems in Proto-Indo-European, viz. when they ended in -ē- or -ā-, as they appeared in Presents and Aorists alike. It was through oppositions and formal specializations of individual pairs that they could be distinguished; as, adding a present mark like -je/o-.

II. AORIST ROOT STEM 1. Athematic Aorist Root stems were generally opposed to Athematic Reduplicated Present stems, but it wasn’t the only possible opposition in PIE. NOTE. Such athematic Root stems aren’t found with endings in consonant, though.

2. Monosyllabic Root Aorists are usually opposed to Presents: a. In -neu-; as, kḷneumi/kleum, hear, or qṛneumi/qerm, make, do; etc. Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs NOTE. Derivative kḷneumi is difficult to reconstruct with certainty; often interpreted as with infix -n-, i.e. kḷ-n-eu-, it has been proposed that it is a zero-grade suffixed klu-neu-, cf. Buddh. Skr. śrun; Av. surunaoiti; Shughni çin; O.Ir. cluinethar; Toch. A and B käln. Skr. śRno-/śRnu- < *kluneu-/klunu- would show a loss of u analogous to the loss of i in tRtī́ya- ‘third’ < IE tritijo-.

b. Reduplicated or in -ske/o-, -je/o-; as, cṃskṓ/cām, come; c. Thematic Present; as, ghewō/ghewṃ, pour. 3. Disyllabic Root Presents show a similar opposition pattern; as, gígnōskō/gnōm. 4. The thematic vowel is the regular system in inflection, i.e. Present Sg. Active with full vowel, and Ø in the rest. 5. Thematic Aorist stems are the same ones as those of the Present, i.e. full-grade and zero-grade, e.g. leiq- and liq-, always opposed to the Present: a. The liqé/ó- form (i.e. zero-grade) is usually reserved for the Aorist stem; as, pṇdhskō/pṇdh-ó-m, suffer. b. The leiqe/o- form (i.e. full-grade) is rarely found in the Aorist – but, when it is found, the Present has to be logically differentiated from it; e.g. from the Imperfect with Augment, viz. from bhertum, to carry, paradigm Pres. bhéreti/bherti, he carries, Imperf. bherét/bhert, he was carrying, Aorist ébheret/ébhert, he carried. III. AORIST REDUPLICATED STEM 1. Aorist Reduplicated stems – thematic and athematic – are found mainly in Greek and Indo-Iranian, but also sporadically in Latin. NOTE. Southern dialects have also (as in the Present) a specialized vowel for Reduplicated Aorists, v.i., but in this case it is unique to them, as the other dialects attested apparently followed different schemes.

2. Aorist Thematic Reduplicates have a general vowel e (opposed to the i of the Present), zero-grade root vowel (general in Aorists); as, chenmi/che-chṇ-om, murder, kill; weqmi/we-uq-om, say, speak. In roots which begin with vowel, reduplication is of the type vowel+consonant. NOTE. This resource for the Aorist formation seems not to have spread successfully outside Graeco-Aryan dialects; however, the opposition of Present Reduplication in i, Preterite Reduplication in e (cf. Perfect Stem) was indeed generalized in Late Proto-Indo-European.

225

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

3. Some roots which begin with vowel form also Reduplicated Aorists; as ag-ag-om (as Gk. ηγαγον, where η<ā<*é+a – Wackernagel, hence *é-agagom). 4. Also, Causatives form frequently Reduplicated Aorists, cf. Lat. momorit, totondit, spopondit, etc., or O.Ind. atitaram, ajijanam, etc. IV. AORIST CONSONANT STEM 1. As we have seen, Present Thematic stems in -s- are often Desideratives (also used as immediate Futures). The same stems served as Aorists with secondary endings (usually reserved for the Aorist), generally called the Sigmatic Aorist. NOTE. Forms in -se/o- are often found in Slavic; as, O.C.S. vedǪ/vęsŭ, nesǪ/nęsŭ, pĕjǪ/pĕxŭ, moljǪ/molixŭ, nesǪ/mĭnĕxŭ, etc. Cf. also Skr. ávrkṣam, ádhukṣas, árukṣas, etc. For the Future stem coming from sigmatic aorist stem, Adrados (1996) states: “Homeric Greek aorists dúseto, bḗseto, are exactly parallels to Future dúsomai, bḗsomai, remains of the same sigmatic thematic stem, and not remade forms as Leumann (1952-53) and Prince (1970) proposed”.

2. The -s- was added: a. to a Consonant ending and lengthened root vowel, in contrast with the Present in full vowel; b. to a vowel ā, ē, ō, with the same stem as the Present, or to the noun from which the verb is derived. Those in ē and ā must have Ø root grade. There was also a second Aorist mark: an -e- before the -s- (possibly an older Aorist mark, to which another mark was added); as, alkējō/alkēsom, grow, from al-; mṇjō/mnāsom, consider, from men-; etc. NOTE. Thematic Aorist stems are mostly used as Presents in Indo-Iranian, Greek, Slavic, and Latin, which show still another Aorist stem for sigmatic aorists. Therefore, thematic stems in sare usually Future stems in Modern Indo-European.

3. Athematic stems in -s- were widespread in PIE. They were originally added to the Root, whether monosyllabic or disyllabic, in consonant or vowel, opposed to the Present. Monosyllabic or Disyllabic Aorist root stems in i, u, ā, ē, ō, have a fixed vowel grade (like most Athematic Root Aorists); e.g. the 3rd P.Pl. plēnt, from redupl. pí(m)plēmi, fill

7. Verbs

(i.e. in zero-grade/full-grade), or 3rd P.Pl. pewisṇt from pōnāmi, purify (i.e. in fullgrade/zero-grade). The most frequent Aorist stems in PIE were monosyllabic roots ending in consonant or sonant. They usually have in Graeco-Aryan lengthened root vowel in the active voice, and zero-grade in the rest; as, leiq-, leave, from which liq-ó-m and lēiq-s-ṃ; so too from qer-, make, giving qēr-s-ṃ; etc. Lengthened vocalism in sigmatic aorists was probably an innovation in Late PIE. NOTE. For lengthened grade, cf. maybe Latin forms like dīxī (<*dēik-s-), uēxī de uehō (cf. O.Ind. ávāk-ṣam from váhāmi, “drive”), rēxī from regō, etc., or Toch. B preksa, A prakäs (<*prēk-s-ā), according to Lindeman (1968).

The general system of Present vs. Sigmatic Aorist stems may be so depicted: -ēje/o- vs. -ēs-; -āje/o- vs. -ās-; -je/o- vs. -is-; -je/o- vs. -ās-; -je/o- vs. ēs-; and -e/o- vs. -ās-. NOTE 1. Aorist stem formation in -i-, -ē-, -ā- is still less common. Other common formations in -s- include the following: In -is- (Latin and Indo-Aryan), -es- (Greek), as genis- from gen-, beget, wersis- from wers-, rain; also, cf. Lat. amauis (amāuistī, and amāuerām<*-wisām), etc. In -sā-, attested in Latin, Tocharian and Armenian. In -sē-, thematic -sje/o-, etc. NOTE 2 Aorists in -s- are then a modern feature of Late PIE, found in all its dialects (as Imperfects or Perfects in North-West IE), but for Germanic and Baltic, possibly the dialects spoken far away from the core of the remaining dialect continuum.

4. Stems in -t- function usually as Aorists opposed to Present stems, especially in Latin, Italic, Celtic and Germanic. NOTE. While the use of -t for persons in the verbal conjugation is certainly old, the use of an extension in -t- to form verbal Stems seems to be more recent, and mainly a North-West IE development.

5. Stems in -k- are rare, but there are examples of them in all forms of the verb, including Aorists. V. AORIST VOWEL STEM 1. Aorists in ā, ē, are very common, either as pure stems with Athematic inflection, or mixed with other endings, e.g. -u-.

227

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. As already said, stems extended in -u- are rarely found in Present stems, but are frequent in Preterites, and the contrary has to be said of stems in -i-. For more on these formations, v.s. the Present Vowel Stem section.

When opposed to a Present, stems extended in -ā, -ē, are often Aorists. 2. Possible oppositions Present Stem Vowel vs. Aorist Stem Vowel include: A. Present Thematic in -i- vs. Aorist Athematic in -ē, -ā; as, mńjō/mṇēm, consider, alkējō/alkām, be hungry. B. Present Thematic in e/o vs. Aorist Athematic in -ē, -ā; as, legō-legēm, collect. 3. The use of stems in -u- is usually related to the Past, and sometimes to the Perfect. Such endings may appear as -u-, often -āu-, -ēu-; as, plēu-, from plē-, sēu, from sē-, gnōu-, from gnō. 4. Stems in -i/-ī are scarcely used for Aorists, but it appears in general stems used for Present and Aorist stems, cf. awisdhijō/awisdhiwom, hear, Lat. audĭo, audĭui. 7.4.4. THE PERFECT STEM The Perfect stem (opposed to the Present) has  or lengthened root vowel and special Perfect endings, Sg. -a, -tha, -e; 3rd Pl. -r. In Gk. and Ind.-Ira., the stem was often reduplicated, generally with vowel e. NOTE. Originally the Perfect was probably a different Stative verb, which eventually entered the verbal conjugation, meaning the state derived from the action. PIE Perfect did not have a Tense or Voice value; it was later opposed to the Pluperfect (or Past Perfect) and became Present, and to the Middle Perfect and became Active.

I. Root vowel is usually /Ø, i.e. o-grade in the singular and zero-grade in the plural; as, (Pres. 1stP.Sg., Perf. 1stP.Sg., Perf.1stP.Pl), gígnō-mi/gé-gon-a/ge-gṇ-mé, know; bhindh-ō/bhondh-a/bhṇdh-mé, bind; bheudhō/bhoudh-a/bhudh-mé, bid; NOTE. 1) for different formations, cf. kan-ō/(ké)kan-a/kṇ-mé, sing, cf. O.Ir. cechan, cechan, cechuin (and cechain), cechnammar, cechn(u)id, cechnatar.; d-ō-mi/de-d-ai, give, cf. O.Ind. dadé, Lat. dedī. 2) For examples of root vowel ā, cf. Lat. scābī, or Gk. τεθηλα, and for examples with root vowel a, cf. Umb. procanurent (with ablaut in Lat. procinuerint) – this example has lost reduplication as Italic dialects usually do after a preposed preposition (cf. Lat. compulī, detinuī), although this may not be the case (cf. Lat. concinuī). For subgroups of conjugations, v.s.

Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs NOTE 2. There are also (mainly dialectal) Perfects with lengthened Root vowel; as, from Latin sedē-jō, sēd-a, sit; ed-ō, ēd-a, eat; cem-jō, cēm-a, come; ag-ō, āg-a, act; from Germanic, sleb-ō, séslēb-a, sleep; etc.

II. The Endings of the Perfect are -a, -tha, -e, for the singular, and -mé, -(t)é, -(ē)r, for the plural. III. Reduplication is made in e, and sometimes in i and u. NOTE. Apparently, Indo-Iranian and Greek dialects made reduplication obligatory, whereas North-Western dialects didn’t; but, compare nonobligatory reduplication in woida, from weid-, cf. for woisda (<*woid-th2e), O.Ind. véttha, Gk. (w)oīstha, Goth. waist. Cf. also Gk. εγνοκα, Lat. sēuī (which seems old, even with Goth. saiso), Lat. sedī, from sedeō and sīdo, which don’t let us reconstruct when is from PIE sesdāi, and when from sēdāi.

7.4.5. THE FUTURE STEM 1. Future stems were frequently built with a Thematic -s- ending, although not all IndoEuropean dialects show the same formations. NOTE. The Future comes probably from Late PIE Desiderative-Causative Present stems, usually formed with extensions in Thematic -s- (and its variants), which became with time a regular part of the verbal conjugation in some dialects, whilst disappearing in others; e.g. weid-sō, “wish to see”, as Lat. vīsere, Goth. gaweisōn, O.S. O.H.G. wīsōn, “visit”, from weid-, (cf. widējō, see). In fact, whether using this formation or not, all Indo-European languages tended to differentiate the Present from the Future Tense. Usual resources found in Indo-European languages to refer to the future are 1) the Present as Immediate Future, 2) the Present Subjunctive or Aorist with prospective value, 3) different Desiderative formations in Present, and 4) Verbal Periphrasis.

Future stems were usually made in Proto-Indo-European dialects as follows: a. With a simple Athematic -s, or extended Thematic -se/o-, -sje/o-, or -sēje/o-. b. With root vowel e, i.e. in full-grade. c. With or without reduplication. NOTE. Cf. for a common origin of the future in -s-, Sanskrit (and Baltic) futures in -sje/o- (cf. Skr. dā-ṣy-mi, Lith. dou-siu, “I will give”), Doric Greek in -sēje/o-, -sje/o-, Classical Greek and Archaic Latin in -se/o- (cf. O.Lat. faxō, dhak-sō, “I will make”, O.Lat. peccas-sō, from peccāre, Lat. erō, “I will be”, from esō, from IE es-, be, etc.), and Old Irish common reduplicates in -s (cf. subj. gessti, fut. gigessti). Also, some more dialectal additions are found appearing before the -sedings; as, -i-s- in Indo-Iranian and Latin, -e-s- in Greek and Osco-Umbrian.

229

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

2. In Modern Indo-European, the Future is regularly made by adding a Thematic -s(usually -sje/o-), following – if possible – the attested common vocabulary. NOTE. The Future stem in -s- is found neither in Germanic and Slavic dialects, nor in Classic Latin, which developed different compound futures. However, Indo-Iranian, Baltic and Greek show almost the same Future stems (along with similar formations in Archaic Latin, OscoUmbrian and Old Celtic dialects), what means that the Future stem had probably a common (but unstable) pattern already developed before the first migrations, still in a common Late PIE. Apparently, then, Germanic and Slavic dialects, as well as the systematized Classic Latin, didn’t follow it or later substituted it with their own innovative formations. Another common resource of early PIE dialects to indicate future tense was to use the subjunctive mode of the aorist stem. For Germanic future compounds, compare general Germanic from PIE wṛtō, turn, PGmc. werþō, “become, turn into” (cf. Goth. wairþan, O.S., O.Du. werthan, O.N. verða, O.E. weorðan, O.Fris. wertha, O.H.G. werdan, Eng. worth, Ger. werden), from PIE wer-, turn. Also, sk(e)lō, Gmc. skulō, “owe, must” (cf. Goth. skulan, O.S. sculan, O.N., Swed. skola, O.H.G. solan, M.Du. sullen, Eng. shall, Ger. sollen), with a dialectal meaning shift from ‘obligation’ to ‘probable future’, related to O.E. scyld “guilt”, Ger. Schuld, also in O.N. Skuld; cf. O.Prus. skallisnan, Lith. skeleti “be guilty”, skilti, “get into debt”. Also, for Eng. “will”, from Gmc. welljan, “wish, desire”, compare derivatives from PIE wel-. In Osco-Umbrian and Classic Latin, similar forms are found that reveal the use of compounds with the verb bheu-, be exist, used as an auxiliary verb with Potential-Prospective value (maybe a common Proto-Italic resource), later entering the verbal conjugation as a desinence; compare Osc.-Umb. -fo-, Faliscan carefo, pipafo, or Lat. -bo-, -be- (cf. Lat. ama-bo, from earlier *ami bhéwō, or lauda-bo, from *laudi bhewō). The common Slavic formation comes also from PIE bheu-, be, exist, grow, with extended bhūtjō, come to be, become, found in BSl. byt- (cf. O.C.S. бъіти, Russ. быть, Cz. býti, Pol. być, Sr.-Cr. bíti, etc.), and also in Lith. bū́ti, O.Ind. bhūtíṣ, and Cel. but- (O.Ir buith). Also, with similar meanings and forms, compare Gmc. biju, “be”, (cf. Eng. be, Ger. bin), or Lat. fui, “was”, also in zero-grade bhutús, “that is to be”, and bhutūros, future, as Lat. futūrus (cf. gn̅tūrā, Lat. nātūra), or Gk. φύομαι; from the same root cf. Goth. bauan, O.H.G. buan, “live”.

3. Conditional sentences might be built in some Proto-Indo-European dialects using common Indicative and Subjunctive formations. In Modern Indo-European, either such archaic syntax is imitated, or an innovative formation is used, viz. the Future Stem with Secondary Endings.

Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs NOTE. Most IE dialects show a newer possibility for conditional inflection, the use of “a past form of the Future stem”, cf. Eng. I will/I would, Deu. Ich werde/Ich würde, Spa. haré/haría, Pol. [past] + bym, byś, by, etc. To apply this concept to the Proto-Indo-European verbal system (with stems and verb-endings) would mean to use the Future Stem with secondary endings. However, conditional sentences might also be made with the available Late PIE resources, using periphrases with Indicative and Subjunctive (as Classic Latin), or with the Subjunctive and Optative (as Classical Greek), etc. Whether MIE speakers prefer to use the modern common IndoEuropean type of Conditional Inflection, or different periphrasis of PIE indicatives, subjunctives and optatives, is a practical matter outside the scope of this grammar. Examples of the different conditional formations are as follows: o The system proposed was developed in the earliest attested Late PIE dialect, Sanskrit, where the Conditional was built using the Future Stem (in thematic suffix -s-, already seen) with Secondary Endings; cf. Skr. dā-ṣy-ti, “he will give”, vs. dā-ṣy-t, “he would give”, from IE dō-, Skr. bhavi-ṣy-mi, “I will be”, bhavi-ṣy-m, “I would be”, from IE bheu-. o In Ancient Greek, the Optative is found as modal marker in the antecedent, which defines the conditional sense of the sentence; cf. εἰ πράσσοι τοῦτο καλῶς ἄν ἔχοι, “if he were to do that, it would turn out well”. o In Germanic dialects, the conditional is usually made with a verbal periphrasis, consisting of the modal (future) auxiliary verb in the past, i.e. would (or should, also could, might), and the infinitive form of the main verb, as in I will come, but I would come; compare also Ger. (fut.) Ich werde kommen, (cond.) Ich würde kommen. o While Latin used the indicative and subjunctive in conditional sentences, Romance languages developed a conditional inflection, made by the imperfect of Lat. habēre, cf. V.Lat. (fut.) uenire habeo, “I have to come”, V.Lat. (cond.) uenire habēbam, “I had to come”, as in Fr. (fut.) je viendr-ai, (cond.) je viendr-ais, Spa. (fut.) yo vendr-é, (cond.) yo vendr-ía, etc., cf. also the Portuguese still separable forms, as e.g. Pt. fazê-lo-ia instead of “o fazería”. Modern Italian has substituted it by another similar ending, from the perfect of Lat. habēre o In Slavic languages, a derivative of bheu- is used, namely Russ. бы, Pol. bym, byś, by, etc.

Full conditional sentences contain two clauses: the Protasis or condition, and the Apodosis or result, a matter studied in the section on Proto-Indo-European Syntax.

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

7.4.6. OTHER FORMATIONS MIDDLE PERFECT AND PAST PERFECT a. It was a common resource already in the common Proto-Indo-European language to oppose a new Perfect formation to the old one, so that the old became only Active and the newer Middle. Such formations were generalized in the southern dialects, but didn’t succeed in the northern ones. The new Perfect Middle stem was generally obtained with the Perfect stem in zerograde and middle endings. b. The Past Perfect or Pluperfect was also a common development of some dialects, opposing the new perfect with Secondary Endings (which mark a past tense) to the old perfect, which became then a Present Perfect. THE COMPOUND PAST A special Past or Preterite is found in IE dialects of Europe (i.e., the North-West IE and Greek), sometimes called Future Past, which is formed by two elements: a verbal stem followed by a vowel (-ā, -ē, -ī, -ō), and an auxiliary verb, with the meanings be (es-), become (bheu-), do (dhē-), or give (dō-). NOTE. Although each language shows different formations, they all share a common pattern and therefore have a common origin traceable to Late PIE, unstable at first and later systematized in the early proto-languages.

The Compound Past may be studied dividing the formation into three main parts: the forms of the first and second elements and the sense of the compound. 1. The First Element may be a. A Pure Root. b. Past Stem with the same lengthening as the rest of the verb. c. Past Stem lengthened, but alternating with the Present stem, i.e. normally Present zero-grade vs. Past in full-grade. d. Past Stem lengthened vs. Thematic Present (and Aorist).

Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs NOTE. Originally, then, Compound Pasts are derived from a root or a stem with vowel ending, either the Present or the Aorist Stem. They are Pasts similar to the others (Imperfects and Aorists), but instead of receiving secondary endings, they receive a secondary stem (like the Perfect).

2. The second element is an auxiliary verb; as, dhē- in Greek and Germanic, bheu- in Latin and Celtic, and dō- in Balto-Slavic. 3. Their specific Past meaning vary according to the needs of the individual dialects.

7.5. MOOD STEMS 7.5.1. INDICATIVE The Indicative expresses the Real Action, in contrast to the other moods, which were specialized in opposition to the basic Indicative mood. It appears in the Four verbal Stems. 7.5.2. IMPERATIVE The Imperative had probably in Middle PIE the same basic stem of the Indicative, and was used without ending, in a simple Expressive-Impressive function, of Exclamation or Order. They were the equivalent in verbal inflection to the vocative in nominal declension. Some Late PIE dialects derived from this older scheme another, more complex Imperative system, with person, tense and even voice. It is also old, besides the use of the pure stem, the use of the Injunctive for the Imperative in the 2nd person plural; as, bhere! carry! (thou), bhérete! carry! (you). The so-called Injunctive (Beekes 1995) is defined as the Bare Stem, with Secondary Endings, without Augment. It indicated therefore neither the present nor the past, thus easily showing Intention. It is this form which was generally used as the Imperative. 1. The Bare Stem for the Imperative 2nd P. Sg. is thus general; 2. The Injunctive (Bare Stem + ending) forms the 2nd P. Pl.; as well as 3. the 3rd P. Sg. and the 3rd P. Pl., which have a special ending -tōd. NOTE. An ending -u, usually *-tu, is also reconstructed (Beekes 1995); the inclusion of that ending within the verbal system is, however, difficult. A common IE ending -tōd, on the other hand, may obviously be explained as the introduction into the verbal conjugation of a secondary

233

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN Ablative form of the neuter pronoun tod, this, a logical addition to an Imperative formation, with the sense of ‘here’, hence ‘now’, just as the addition of -i, ‘here and now’ to oppose new endings to the older desinences (Adrados 1996). This formation was further specialized in some dialects as Future Imperatives.

The Imperative in Modern Indo-European is made with the Present Stem and Secondary Endings, and is thus generally divided into two main formations: a. The old, athematic Imperatives; as in eí! go! from eími; or es! be! from esmi. NOTE. In Root Athematic verbs, plural forms show -Ø vowel and accent on the ending; as, séntōd! be they!

A common Athematic desinence, along with the general zero-ending, is -dhi, PII (and probably PIE) -dhí, which seems to be very old too; as, i-dhi! go!, s-dhí! be! b. Thematic Imperatives; as bhere! carry!, age! do! act!, etc.

NOTE. In Late PIE, only the person distinctions seem to have been generalized. Middle forms include injunctive forms plus middle desinences; as, 2nd P. Sg. -so (cf. Gk. lúou<*lúe-so, Lat. sequere<*seque-se), 2nd P. Pl. -dhwe, cf. Gk. lúes-the, O.Ind. bháva-dhvam.

7.5.3. SUBJUNCTIVE 1. The Subjunctive is normally Athematic, usually in -ā, -ē and sometimes -ō, and always opposed to the Indicative. There are also Subjunctives in -s, probably newer than those in -ē, -ā. NOTE. No subjunctive is found in Balto-Slavic, which could mean that it was an innovation of Late PIE, or else that it was lost in that dialect.

2. The Subjunctive Stem is made opposing it to the Indicative Stem, usually following these rules: a. Indicative Athematic vs. Subjunctive Thematic; as, esmi, I am, esō, (if) I be. Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs

b. Indicative Thematic vs. Subjunctive with Lengthened Thematic Vowel (not root vowel!); as, Ind. bhéresi, you carry, Sub. bhérēsi, you may carry, (if) you carried. NOTE. Following Meier-Brügger, “[t]he subjunctive suffix is PIE *-e-, In the case of athematic verbal stems, the rule is [where K=Consonant] -K+Ø- (indicative stem), -K+e- (subjunctive stem); correspondingly, that of thematic verbs is -e+Ø - (indicative stem), -e+e- (subjunctive stem). The formal identity of the athematic subjunctive stem (e.g. PIE *h1és-e-) to the thematic indicative stem (e.g. the type PIE *bhér-e-) is no coincidence. This identity may be understood if we suppose that the subjunctive with -e- was first an action type. The voluntative/prospective meaning was neutralized when the primary endings, which emphasized the present tense, and thus the immediacy of the action type, were used and could give the impetus for the formation of indicative -e- stems. At the same time, the -e- stem voluntative/prospectives proved very lasting and established themselves, together with the optatives, as a mode which could be attached to every stem, lastly even the indicative -e- stems”.

3. In Thematic Verbs the Subjunctive is made from the Present Stem, but in Athematic Verbs it is usually made from the Bare Stem; as, kḷneumi, Subj. kléwomi. 7.5.4. OPTATIVE 1. The Optative mood is a volitive mood that signals wishing or hoping, as in English I wish I might, or I wish you could, etc. 2. The Optative is made with Secondary Endings, usually with zero-grade root vowel, adding the following suffix: 1) In the Athematic flexion, a general alternating full-grade -jē in the singular, and zero-grade -ī- in the plural of the active voice, and -ī- in the middle voice; as, chnjḗt, may he strike, chnīnt, may they strike. NOTE. “The stress was on the ending in the 1st and 2nd pl. forms of the mobile paradigms, and evidently also in the sg. forms of the middle voice, but not in the 3rd pl. forms, where a number of indications point to original root stress”, as Lat. velint, Goth. wileina, and O.C.S. velętъ. But, Ved. -ur appears “in all those athematic forms where the stress is either on the root or on a preceding syllable”. Kortlandt (1992), see .

2) When the stress is fixed, it is -oi- in the thematic flexion, and -ī- in the athematic (e.g. sigmatic aorists); as, bheroit, may he carry. NOTE. This is probably the thematic -o- plus the zero-grade Optative suffix -i- (<*i-h1-), i.e. originally *-o-ih1-, or maybe *-o-jh1-, see Hoffmann (1976). Optative endings of the 1st P. Pl. and

235

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN especially the 3rd P. Pl. O.Ind. (-yam, -ur) and O.Gk. (*-ia, *-ien) yield a reconstruction of vocalic sonants in PII and PGk, i.e. Them. *-oj-ṃ, *-oj-ṇt, Athem. *-ij-ṇt.

3. The Athematic Optative formations had usually mobile stress, with stress on the Optative suffix, and on the ending in the 2nd and 3rd Pers. Plural.

7.6. THE VOICE 7.6.1. ACTIVE VOICE 1. The characteristic Primary Endings are -mi, -si, -ti, 3rd Pl. -nti, while the Secondary don’t have the final -i, i.e. -m, -s, -t, 3rd Pl. -nt. NOTE. The secondary endings are believed to be older, being originally the only verbal endings available. With the addition of a deictic -i, which possibly indicated originally “here and now”, the older endings became secondary, and the newer formations became the primary endings. Compare a similar evolution in Romance languages from Lat. habere, giving common Fr. il y a, “there (it) is”, or Cat. i ha, “there is”, while the Spanish language has lost the relationship with such older Lat. i, “there”, viz. Spa. hay, “there is” (from O.Spa. ha+i), already integrated within the regular verbal conjugation of the verb haber.

2. These Desinences are used for all verbs, whether Athematic or Thematic; as, esti, he is, or bhéreti, he carries. However, in the 1st P. Sg., Thematics end in -ō; as, bherō. NOTE. These endings in -ō are probably remains of an older situation, in which no ending was necessary to mark the 1st P. Sg. (that of the speaker), and therefore, even though a desinence -m became general with time, the older formations prevailed, along with a newer Thematic -o-mi.

7.6.2. MIDDLE VOICE 1. The Middle Endings are generally those of the Active voice with a characteristic Middle voice -o, in which the Primary Endings have an additional -i. 2. In the Moods, the endings attested are the same. NOTE. Only dialectally were some new endings developed to differentiate the subjunctive.

7.6.3. PASSIVE VOICE 1. The Passive voice was a development of early North-West IE dialects; it seems therefore useful to specialise a common modern Indo-European grammatical formation, based on old PIE endings.

Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs

2. The -r ending was usual in the Middle formations of Proto-Indo-European, and it had also a specific impersonal value. The -r has therefore two uses in Indo-European: a. The -r After the Stem had usually in PIE an impersonal value, and it was also found lengthened as -ro, -roi, -renti, -ronti, -rontoi, etc. NOTE. The -r was used in the 3rd P. Sg. & Pl., and it was extended in -nt- when necessary to distinguish the plural, giving initially the impersonal forms e.g. 3rd P.Sg. déiketor, “it is shown”, and 3rd P.Pl. déikontor, “they are shown”, with the impersonal ending -r which was later generalized in some dialects, spreading as Mediopassives in Hittite, Italic, Celtic, Latin and Tocharian. Also, when a Middle form was needed, a Middle ending -o was added. The primary marker -i was used apparently with the same aim.

b. The -r After the Ending was usual in forms related to the so-called PIE Mediopassive Voice, attested in Latin, Osco-Umbrian, Celtic and Tocharian, as well as in Germanic, Indo-Iranian and Anatolian dialects. In Celtic, Osco-Umbrian and Latin, they replaced the Middle Primary Endings, and acquired a Passive value. NOTE 1. The oldest traceable meaning of the endings in -r in Proto-Indo-European, taking the Anatolian examples, show apparently the same common origin: either an impersonal subject or, at least, a subject separated from the action, which is a meaning very closely related to the later dialectally specialized use of a Passive Voice. NOTE 2. There are no distinctions of Primary-Secondary Passive Endings, as the Secondary formations are the same oldest Medioppasive -o Endings. The newer -i (Middle) and -r (Impersonal) endings were added later and spread on a dialect-to-dialect basis, some of them using and/or mixing both of them, all specializing its use.

7.7. NOUN AND ADJECTIVE FORMS 7.7.1. INFINITIVES 1. The Infinitives are indeclinable nouns with non-personal verbal functions, which can be in some dialects as many as inflection, voice, aspect and even time. NOTE. Infinitives are, thus, old nouns reinterpreted as forming part of the verbal conjugation. As Meier-Brügger (2003) notes, “[i]t is doubtful that [old] Proto-Indo-European featured a specific infinitive suffix. The development of means of differentiation of voice, aspect, and tempus in the infinitive formations is post-Proto-Indo-European”.

237

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

2. The oldest Infinitives are the Verbal Nouns, casual forms inflected as nouns, sometimes included in the verbal inflection. A Verbal Noun is a declinable substantive, derived from the root of a verb. NOTE. The difference in syntax is important: the verbal noun is constructed as a substantive, thus e.g. with the object in the genitive; as, wīr chentis, the murder of a man. Such a formation is opposed to an infinitive with an accusative; as, wīróm chentum, to murder (Nom.) a man, v.i.

3. Verbal Nouns were, thus, the normal way to express the idea of a modern Infinitive in the oldest PIE. They were formed with the verbal stem and usually a nominal suffix ti-; as, statis (<*sth2-ti-), standing, placing, from stā- (<*steh2-) stand. NOTE. Cf. Skt sthíti- ‘stay, sojourn’, Grk stásis ‘place, setting, erection [of a statue]’, Lat statim ‘firmly, steadfastly’, Eng. stead. Some IE dialects chose later between limited noun-cases of those verbal nouns for the Infinitive formation, generally Acc., Loc., Abl.; compare Lat. *-os (sibilant neuter), Gmc. *-on-om (thematic neuter), etc.

4. In Late PIE, a common Infinitive suffix -tu- (and dial. -ti-) is usually added to the accented strong verbal root, conveying the same meaning as the English infinitive; as, stātum, to stay, opposed to the weak, unaccented form in participle statós, placed. NOTE 1. For generalized IE infinitive -tu-, cf. Lat. (active & passive supine) -tum (acc.) -tū (dat.loc.) -tui (dat.), Gk. -tós (<*-tew-os), Skr. -tus, -tum (acc.), Av. -tos (gen.), -tave, -tavai (dat.), tum, Prus. -twei (dat.) -tun, -ton (acc.), O.Sla. -tŭ (supine), Lith. -tų, etc.; for -ti-, cf. Ved. -taye (dat), BSl., Cel. -ti (loc.), Lith. -tie (dat.), etc.; also, in -m-en-, cf. Skr. -mane, O.Gk. -men(ai), etc. NOTE 2. A common ending -dhwāi/-dhjāi (Haudry) added to the Basic Verbal Stem (possibly originally related to the forms -tu-, -ti-) is the basic form behind Ved. -dhyai, Gk. Middle -σθαι, Umb. -fi, Toch. -tsi, as well as Latin gerunds and the for Germanic reconstructed -dhjōi (Rix 1979), all possibly related to an original middle infinitive. Other forms include -u-, -er/n-, -(e)s-, extended -s-, -u-, -m-, also Gmc. -no- (as Goth. ita-n<*edo-no-), Arm. -lo-, etc.

7.7.2. PARTICIPLES 1. The Participles are adjectives which have been assimilated to the verbal system, having thus verbal inflection. NOTE. The reconstructed Proto-Indo-European shows an intense reliance on participles, and thus a certain number of participles played a very important role in the early language.

Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs

2. Those in -nt-, fem. -nt-ja/ī, are the older ones, and are limited to the Active voice and to the Present, Imperfect and Future. In athematics it seems that a weak and strong stem coexisted in present participles, cf. es-ont-/s-ṇt-, who exist, being, weq-ont-/uq-ṇt-, who speaks, dhe-dha-nt-, placing, jung-ṇt-, joining. NOTE. For s-ṇt- instead of sent-, cf. ap-sṇt- (for apo-we-sent-is) in Lat. (ab)sent-, Myc. pl. (a-p)e-a-sa, i.e. ap-ehassai (with -assa-<*-ṇt-ih2-). A. Morpurgo Davies (1978) considered that “[a]s far as we know, there is no reason to attribute *h1s-ent- to Proto-Greek”.

In thematics, a form -o-nt- (also -e-nt-) is generalized as, bher-ont-, who carries. NOTE. The suffix -o-nt- shows no general full-grade/zero-grade paradigm in MIE. It is safe to assume that for North-West IE, and probably also for Late PIE, as “[i]t remains to be seen whether the thematic forms were originally declined as *-ont-/*-nt- (as in Vedic), and were only secondarily reinterpreted as *-o-nt-”, Meier-Brügger, 2003 (Rix 1976, Szemerényi 1990). NOTE 2. In Anatolian, however, this participle is semantically equivalent to the -tó- verbal adjective. Aorist active participles wre formed similarly to present participles, with the aorist stem; cf. Skr. sthānt-, Gk. stant- (<stā-nt-) ‘having stood’.

3. The Perfect active has a suffix -wos-, fem. -us-ja/ī; as, wid-wós-, seeing, from weid-. Common is the reduplicated Perfect stem; as, qe-qṛ-wós-, making, from qer-. NOTE. For widwós, cf. Av. vīduu, O.Ind. vidús-, Gk. eidós, also Toch. B. lt-u, Lith. áug-us-i, etc. Compare reduplicated examples in Myc. a-ra-ru-wo-a, Skr. ca-kṛ-vás-, Lat. me-mor-, etc. Another old suffix is found in Myc. -wót-.

Both the Present and Perfect participles masculine and neuter are indeed inflected following the second declension in t and s; as, Masc. Nom. -nts, -wos, Acc. -ntṃ, wosṃ, Gen. -ntos, -usos (note the zero-grade us- in the Oblique cases), Nom. pl. ntes, -woses, etc. Feminine forms follow the first declension in -ja/ī. 4. The Middle Participles have a common suffix (originally probably adjectival), Athematic -meno-/-mno-, Thematic -o-meno-/-o-mno-; as, alomnós, “who feeds himself”, student, (as Lat. alumnus, from al-), dhēmn, “who suckles”, woman, (as Lat. femina, from dhēi-). NOTE. On the *-mXno- question, where X is a vowel or laryngeal or even laryngeal+vowel, while Melchert (1983) or Szemerényi (1990) support an original -mn-o-, a competing hypothesis is

239

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN Fritz’s one with an original *-mh1eno-, into variants *-mh1no- and then -mno-, in which “the laryngeal disappears when the suffix is added to a root or stem with a non-syllabic final position preceding the full vowel e. The non-laryngeal full grade form *-meno- would then have the newly constructed zero grade form *-mno-” (Meier-Brügger 2003). The differentiation of the perfect *mh1n-ó- vs. the present *´-o-mh1no- in the various IE languages may be traced back to the athematic/thematic dichotomy (Rix 1976).

5. In addition to participles, PIE had verbal adjectives in -tó- and -nó-, added usually to the zero-grade of a verbal stem that indicated completed action, and were semantically like past participles in English. They are used in static passive formations. NOTE. If the verb they were formed from was transitive (like eat), the verbal adjective was passive and past in tense (eaten), but if the verb was intransitive (like go), the verbal adjective was simply past in tense (gone). Examples include chṇ-tós, slain, from transitive chenmi, murder, cf. Skr. hatá-, Gk. -phatós; cṃ-tós, (having) come, from intransitive chemjō, come. Taken from Fortson (2004).

a. General -tó-; as, altós, grown, dhatós, placed, kaptós, taken, liqtós, left, pigtós, painted etc. b. Old (not generalized) -nó- and its variants; as, plēnós, “(having been) filled up”, full, bhidhnós, “having been split”, parted, bitten; wṛgnós, worked. NOTE. For plēnós, from pel-, fill, an adjective which was not part of the verbal paradigm, cf. Skr. pūrṇá-, Lat. plēnus (vs. past participle -plētus, “filled”), Goth. fulls (double -ll- < *-ln-), O.Ir. lán, Lith. pìlnas. Also, the common PIE verb is found from this root, plḗnāmi, fill, cf. O.Ind. pṛṇti Goth. fullnan, Ger. füllen, O.Ir. lín(a)im, Arm. lnum, and root Gk. píplēmi. NOTE. Verbal adjectives in -mó-, -ló-, functioned as past participles in individual languages; as, present passive participle in Balto-Slavic -mo-, cf. O.C.S. nĕsomŭ, Lith. nēšamas, ‘being carried’, perhaps Anatolian, cf. Luv. kīšammi-, ‘combed’. For its old use, cf. pr̅mós, foremost, first, from

per-, v.s. the ordinal numerals; however, Latin prīmus is usually reconstructed as from preismós (cf. Paelignian prsmū), but possibly superlative pr̅(w)-isṃós, from common PIE pr̅mos,

pr̅wos, first, is the solution (cf. Szemerényi 1970, Adrados 1998).

7.7.3. GERUNDIVES AND ABSOLUTIVES 1. Verbal Adjectives are not assimilated to the verbal system of Tense and Voice. Those which indicate need or possibility are called Gerundives.

Indo-European Language Association

7. Verbs NOTE. Verbal Adjectives and Adjectives (as Verbal Nouns and Nouns) cannot be easily differentiated.

2. Whereas the same Passive Participle suffixes are found, i.e. -tó-, -nó-, -mó-, there are two forms especially identified with the Gerundives in Late PIE dialects: a. -ló- and -li- are found in Latin, Balto-Slavic, Tocharian and Armenian; as, ṇbherelós, unbearable, ágilis, agile, etc. NOTE. For suffix -lo- as a participle suffix, cf. Russ. videlŭ, Lat. credulus, bibulus, tremulus, etc.

b. -jó- (a common lengthening to differentiate adjectives) is sometimes a Gerundive of Obligation, as well as -tu-, -ti-, -ndho-, etc.; as, dhṛsjós, that has to be dared; gnōtinós, that has to be known; séqondhos, second, that has to follow; gnskendhos, that has to be born; and so on. c. -mon, with a general meaning of ‘able’; as, mnāmon-, mindful. NOTE. For the “Internal Derivation” (after the German and Austrian schools) of this PIE suffix *-mṇ>-mon, cf. Gk. mnẽma<*mń-mṇ, “reminder”, PIE *mnāmṇ, into Gk. mnḗmon > mnāmon, “who remembers”; compare also Skr. bráhman, “prayer”, Skr. brahmán, “brahman”, etc.

3. The adverbial, not inflected Verbal Adjectives are called Absolutives or Gerunds. They were usually derived from older Gerundives. NOTE. Early PIE speakers had to use verbal periphrases or other resources to express the idea of a modern Gerund, as there were no common reconstructible PIE gerunds. Just like Verbal Nouns were the usual basis to express the idea of Infinitives, Verbal Adjectives (and especially Gerundives) were a common PIE starting point to create Gerunds

A common Future (or Obligation) Passive Absolutive ending, -téw(ij)os, existed in Late PIE; as, legtéw(ij)os, which has to be said, read or gathered. NOTE. For the absolutive use of -téw(ij)os, cf. Gk. -τος, -τεος, O.Ind. -tavya, O.Ir. -the, etc., probably all from verbal adjectives in -tu-, full grade -tew-, usually lengthened with common gerundive ending -ij-.

Because of its Passive use, it may be used only with transitive verbs.

Participle: sonts, sontja, sont NOTE. Proto-Indo-European verb es, be, is a copula and verb substantive; it originally built only a durative aspect of present, and was therefore supported in some dialects (as Gmc., Sla., Lat.) by the root bheu-, be, exist, which helped to build some future and past formations. For cognates of the singular forms and the 3rd person plural, compare Gmc. ezmi, ezzi, esti, senti (cf. Goth. im, is, is, sind, O.N. em, est, es, O.E. eom, eart, ist, sind/sint, O.H.G. -,-, ist, sind, Eng. am, art, is, -), Lat. sum (<ésomi), es(s), est, sunt (<sonti), Gk. ειμί, εῖ, εστί, εἰσί (Dor. ἐντί), O.Ind. ásmi, ási, ásti, sánti, Av. ahmi (O.Pers. amiy), -, asti, hanti, Arm. em, es, ē, -, O.Pruss. asmai, assai, est, Lith. esmì, esì, ẽsti, O.C.S. jesmь, jesi, jestъ, sǫtъ (<sonti), Russ. есмь, еси, есть, суть

(<sonti), O.Ir. am, a-t, is, it (cf. O.Welsh hint) Alb. jam,-,-, etc.

Athematic Optatives form the Present with zero-grade; cf. Lat. siēm, duim, Gk. ισταιην, διδοιην, τιθειην, O.Ind. syaam (asmi), dvisyām (dvesmi), iyām (emi), juhuyām (juhkomi), sunuykām (sunomi), rundhyām (runadhmi), kuryām (karomi), krīnīyām (krīnāmi), etc. Exceptions are Lat. uelim (not uulim), Goth. (concave) wiljau, wileis, etc. The reconstructed Optative paradigm of esmi comes from these formations (note the columnar stress on the optative suffix): SINGULAR

7. Verbs Due to the decadence of the Athematic flexion in North-West IE, a trend that had begun before Late PIE times – but was held back in the Southern dialects – there was a dynamic situation of coexistence and (eventually) substitution of athematic stems with remade thematic ones; e.g. newer thematic kluwējō, stājō, coexisted with older kḷneumi, (sí)stāmi, with similar meaning and use, and in most EIE dialects completely replaced them.

O. Gk. subj. 1pl. στείομεν (< PGk stejome- < PIE *stəjome- > MIE stajome-), from Gk. ἵστημι; also, θείομεν ( MIE dhajome-) from τίθημι, IE dhē-; δείομεν ( MIE dajome-) from Gk. δίδωμι, IE dō; and so on.

7.8.3. OTHER COMMON PIE STEMS I. THEMATIC VERBS 1. Root: o Present lowō, I wash, Aorist (é)lousṃ, Perfect lélowa. o Present serpō, I crawl, Aorist (é)sṛpom. o Present bherō, I carry, Aorist (é)bherom, Perfect bhébhora. o Present bheugō, I flee, Aorist (é)bhugom. o Present bheidhō, I believe, persuade, Aorist (é)bhidhom. o Present weqō, I speak, Aorist (Them. Redupl.) (é)weuqom. o Present tremō, I tremble, Aorist (é)tṛmom. NOTE. A particular sub-class of Thematic Presents without suffix is of the tipe Skr. tudati, which have Present Stems with zero-grade root-vowel, as glubhō/gleubhō, skin.

2. Reduplicated: There are many reduplicatd thematic stems, analogous to the athematic ones: o Present gignō, I generate, (from gen-), Aorist (é)gṇom/(é)genom, Perfect gégona, P.Part. gn̅tós (cf. O.Ind. jatá, Lat. nātus). NOTE. For gn̅tós, cf. O.Ind. jātás, Av. zāta-; Lat. nātus, Pael. cnatois, Gaul. f. gnātha “daughter”; O.N. kundr “son”, also in compound, cf. Goth. -kunds, “ be a descendant of “, O.E. kund, O.N. -kunnr.

o Present pibō, I drink (

7. Verbs

o Present monējō, I make think, remember, as Lat. moneo, from men-, think. o Present tromējō, I make tremble, from trem-, tremble. 5. In -ske/o-. Verbs built with this suffix had usually two main functions: a. Durative action, Intensive or Repetitive (Intensive-Iterative), as attested in Greek; b. Incompleted action, with an Inchoative value, indicating that the action is beginning. Common examples include: o Present pṛkskṓ, I ask, demand, inquire (cf. Lat. posco, Ger. forschen, v.i.) from prek-, ask. o Present gnāskai, I am born (cf. Lat. gnascor), P.Part. gnātós. NOTE. From zero-grade gṇń-sko-, lit. “I begin to generate myself”, in turn from reduplicated verb gignō, generate.

o Present gnoskō, gígnōskō, I begin to know, I learn, from gnō-, know. 6. With Nasal Infix: o Present jungo, join (from jeug-), Aorist jēugsṃ. NOTE. Compare O.H.G. [untar-]jauhta (as Lat. sub-jugaui), Lat. jungō, -ere, -nxi, -nctus, Gk. ζεύγνῡμι, ζεῦξαι ζυγηναι; O.Ind. yunákti (3. Pl. yuñjánti = Lat. jungunt), yuñjati, full-grade yōjayati (<jeugējeti); Av. yaoj-, yuj-; Lit. jùngiu, jùngti, etc. For Past Participles (with and without Present infix -n-), compare O.E. geoht, iukt, Lat. junctus, Gk. δεπθηόο, O.Ind. yuktá-, Av. yuxta-, Lit. jùngtas, etc.

II. ATHEMATIC VERBS 1. Root: They are the most archaic PIE verbs, and their Present conjugation is of the old type Singular root vowel in full-grade, Plural root vowel in zero-grade. o Present esmi, I am. o Present eími, I walk. o Present bhāmi, I speak. NOTE. The verb talk is sometimes reconstructed as PIE *āmi, I talk, and Imperfect *ām, I talked/have talked; for evidence of an original ag(h)-jō, compare Lat. aiō, Gk. ην, Umb. aiu, Arm. asem. Thus, this paradigm would rather be Thematic, i.e. Present ag(h)jō, I talk, vs. Imperfect ag(h)jóm, I talked/have talked.

255

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

o Present edmi, I eat. NOTE. Note that its early Present Participle dent-, “eating”, was frozen as substantive dentis, meaning “tooth”.

o Present welmi, I want. 2. Reduplicated: o Present sístāmi (from stā-, stand), Aorist (é)stām, P.Part. statós. o Present déidikmi (from deik-, show), Aorist (é)dēiksṃ, Perfect dédoika, P.Part. diktós. o Present dhídhēmi (from dhē-, do, make), Aorist (é)dhēm, P.Part. dhatós. o Present dídōmi (from dō-, give), Aorist (é)dōm, P.Part. datós. o Present jíjēmi, throw, Aorist (é)jem. NOTE. For evidence on an original PIE jíjēmi, and not *jíjāmi as usually reconstructed, cf. Lat. pret. iēcī, a form due to its two consecutive laryngeals, while Lat. iaciō is a present remade (J. González Fernández, 1981).

3. With Nasal Infix: o klunéumi, hear (from kleu-), Aorist (é)klwom, Perfect kéklowa, P.Part. klutós, meaning “heard” and also “famous”. o punémi, rot (from pew), Aorist (é)pēwsṃ.

7.9. THE VERBAL ACCENT The finite verb of a PIE main clause was normally placed following the subject and the object, at the end of the sentence, where the sentence accent usually decreases. However, when the verb was stressed at the beginning of the sentence, or in a subordinate clause, it carried its normal accent. NOTE. Meier-Brügger (2003) also states that “[r]esearchers agree that Vedic generally reflects the fundamental characteristics of [common] Proto-Indo-European, and thus, that the finite verb in a main clause was unstressed (…) It remains disputed whether the second position of the finite verb, common to modern Germanic languages such as German, originated from the inherited phenomenon of enclitics, or whether it appeared secondarily”. On that, Wackernagel (1892) “the German rule of word order was already valid in the mother language”.

Strictly speaking, Particles are usually defined as autonomous elements, usually clitics, which make modifications in the verb or sentence, but which don’t have a precise meaning, and which are neither adverbs nor preverbs nor conjunctions. 8.1.3. Indo-European has some particles (in the strictest sense) which mark certain syntax categories, classified as follows: I. Emphatics or Generalizers may affect the whole sentence or a single word, usually a pronoun, but also a noun or verb. The particle ge/gi, ghe/ghi, usually strengthens the negation, and emphasizes different pronouns. NOTE 1. The origin of this particle is probably to be found in PIE -qe, acquiring its coordinate value from an older use as word-connector, from which this Intensive/Emphatic use was derived. Compare O.Ind. gha, ha, hí, Av. zi, Gk. ge, -gí, -χí, Lith. gu, gi, O.Sla. -go, že, ži, Also, compare, e.g. for intensive negative neghi, O.E. nek, O.Ind. nahí, Balt. negi. Also, if compared with Gk. dé, O.Ind. ha, O.Sla. že, and related to -qe, a common PIE particle che might be reconstructed.

II. Verb Modifiers: a. The old -ti had a Middle value, i.e. Reflexive. NOTE. This is a very old value, attested in Anatolian, cf. Hitt. za, Pal. -ti, Luw. -ti, Lyd. -(i)t, Lyc. -t/di.

b. The modal -man, associated with the Indicative, expresses Potentiality (when used in Present) and Irreality (in the Past). NOTE. It is probably the same as the conjunction man, if, and closely related to -ma, but.

c. The negative particle mē, nē, associated with the Indicative or forms indifferent to the Moods.

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

III. Sentence categorizers indicate the Class of Sentence, whether negative or interrogative. a. Absolute Interrogatives were introduced in European dialects by special particles, generally an. NOTE. The origin could be the “Non-Declarative Sense” of the sentence. It has been proposed a common origin with the negative particle ne/ṇ.

b. Negation has usually two particles, etymologically related: - Simple negation is made by the particle ne, and lengthened with -i, -n, -d, etc.; as, emphatic nei, not at all. - Mood negation or prohibitive is the particle mē, general MIE nē. NOTE. For PIE mē, compare Gk. μή, O.Ind.,Av.,O.Pers. mā, Toch. mar/mā, Arm. mi, Alb. mos. In some PIE dialects (as generally in EIE), nē (from ne) fully replaced the function of mē, cf. Goth. ne, Lat. nē, Ira. ni. It is not clear whether Hitt. lē is ultimately derived from mē or nē.

IV. Sentence Connectives introduce independent sentences or connect different sentences, or even mark the principal sentence among subordinates. a. so and to, which are in the origin of the anaphoric pronoun we studied in § 6.5. b. nu, which has an adverbial, temporal-consecutive meaning. c. An introductory or connective ar, and, thus, therefore, which is possibly the origin of some coordinate conjunctions. d. ne, thus, cf. Lat. ne, Gk. tóne, Skr. ná.

8.2. ADVERBS 8.2.1. There is a class of invariable words, able to modify nouns and verbs, adding a specific meaning, whether semantic or deictic. They can be independent words (Adverbs), prefixes of verbal stems (Preverbs) – originally independent but usually merged with them – and also a nexus between a noun and a verb (Appositions), expressing a non-grammatical relationship, normally put behind, but sometimes coming before the word. NOTE. In the oldest PIE the three categories were probably only different uses of the same word class, being eventually classified and assigned to only one function and meaning. In fact, Adverbs

Indo-European Language Association

8. Particles are generally distinguished from the other two categories in the history of Indo-European languages, so that they change due to innovation, while Preverbs and Appositions remain the same and normally freeze in their oldest positions.

8.2.2. Adverbs come usually from old particles which have obtained a specific deictic meaning. Traditionally, Adverbs are deemed to be the result of oblique cases of old nouns or verbal roots which have frozen in IE dialects, thus loosing inflection.

8.3. DERIVATION OF ADVERBS 8.3.1. Adverbs were regularly formed in PIE from Nouns, Pronouns and Adjectives. 8.3.2. From Pronouns we find adverbs made as follows: i. With a nasal lengthening; as, tām, at that point, jāmi, already, teni, until, kina, from this side, dom, still, num-, now, nom, so. NOTE. Those in -ām are interpreted as being originally Acc. Sg. fem. of independent forms.

ii. An -s lengthening, added to the adverb and not to the basic form, giving sometimes alternating adverbs; as, ap/aps, ek/eks, ambhí/ambhís, etc. iii. An -r lengthening; as, tor, kir, etc. which is added also to other derived adverbs. It is less usual than the other two. NOTE. Compare for such lengthenings Goth. hwar, her, (O.E. where, hier), Lat. cur, O.Ind. kárhi, tár-hi, Lith. kur, Hitt. kuwari. Also, IE qor-i, tor-i, kir-i, etc. may show a final circumstantial -i, probably the same which appears in the Oblique cases and in the Primary Verbal Endings, and which originally meant ‘here and now’.

8.3.3. Some older adverbs, derived as the above, were in turn specialized as suffixes for adverb derivation, helping to create compound adverbs from two pronoun stems: a. From dē, from upwards; as, imde, from there; or nasal -dem. b. Probably from dhē, put, place, there are two particles which give suffixes with local meaning, from stems of Pronouns, Nouns, Adverbs and Prepositions, -dhem, and dhei, -dhi; as idhei, there, ṇdhi, in excess. NOTE. For -dem, cf. Lat. idem, quidam, O.Ind. idān-im; for -dhem, -dhi, Gk. -then, -tha, -thi.

c. Some adverbial suffixes with mood sense – some with temporal sense, derived from the older modal; as, ita, so, uta, rather, anta, towards, etc.; and itim, item, autim, otherwise, uti, out, etc. 259

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. Compare from PIE -ta (<*-th2), Lat. iti-dem, ut(i), ita, Gk. protí, au-ti, O.Ind. iti, práti; from -t(i)m, Lat. i-tem, Gk. ei-ta, epei-ta, O.Ind. u-tá.

8.3.4. From Nouns and Adjectives (usually Neuter Accusatives), frozen as adverbs already in Late PIE. The older endings to form Adverbs are the same as those above, i.e. generally -i, -u and -(i)m, which were in turn originally Adverbs. Such Adverbs had precise, Local meanings, not merely Abstract or Deictic, and evolved later usually as Temporals. Endings -r, nasal -n and also -s, as in the formation of Pronouns, are also found. NOTE 1. It is not uncommon to find adverbs derived from nominal stems which never had inflection, thus (probably) early frozen as adverbs in its pure stem. NOTE 2. From those adverbs were derived Conjunctions, either with Temporal-Consecutive meaning (cf. Eng. then, so) or Contrastive (cf. Eng. on the contrary, instead).

Some common endings include: a. In -d: cf. Lat. probē, Osc. prufēd; O.Ind. pascāt, adharāt, purastāt. b.In -nim: cf. Osc. enim, “and”, O.Ind. tūsnim, “silently”, maybe also idānim is *idānim, not *idān-im. c.In -tos: cf. Lat. funditus, diuinitus, publicitus, penitus; O.Ind. vistarataḥ, “in detail”, samkṣepataḥ, prasangataḥ, “occasionally”, nāmattaḥ, “namely”, vastutaḥ, “actually”, mata, “by/for me”. d.In -ks: cf. Lat. uix, Gk. περιξ, O.Ind. samyak, “well”, prthak, “separately”, Hitt. hudak, “directly”.

8.4. PREPOSITIONS 8.4.1. Prepositions were not originally distinguished from Adverbs in form or meaning, but have become specialized in use. They developed comparatively late in the history of language. In the early stages of the Proto-Indo-European language the cases alone were probably sufficient to indicate the sense, but, as the force of the case-endings weakened, adverbs were used for greater precision. These adverbs, from their common association with particular cases, became Prepositions; but many retained also their independent function as adverbs.

8.4.2. Most prepositions are true case-forms: as the comparatives eksterós (cf. external), ṇdherós (cf. inferior), superós, and the accusatives kikrom, koram, etc. 8.4.3. Prepositions are regularly used either with the Accusative or with the Oblique cases. 8.4.4. Some examples of common PIE adverbs/prepositions are: ambhí, on both sides, around; cf. O.H.G. umbi (as Eng. by, Ger. bei), Lat. am, amb-, Gk. amphi, amphis, O.Ind. abhí. ana, to; on, over, above. Cf. Goth. ana, Gk. ánō, aná, O.Ind. ána, O.C.S. na. antí, opposite, in front. Cf. Goth. and, Lat. ante, Gk. antí, O.Ind. ánti, átha, Lith. añt; Hitt. ḫanti. apo, from; out. Cf. Goth. af, lat. ab, abs, Gk. apo, aps, apothen, O.Ind. ápa. au-/we-, out, far. Cf. Lat. au-, uē-, Gk. au, authi, autár, O.Ind. áva, vi-, Toc. -/ot-, O.C.S. u. obhi, in the middle; around, from, to, etc. Cf. Lat. ob, “towards, to”, O.Ind. abhi, Av. aiwi, Goth. bi. en(i)/ṇ, in. Cf.

8.5. CONJUNCTIONS 8.5.1. Conjunctions, like prepositions, are closely related to adverbs, and are either petrified cases of nouns, pronouns and adjectives, or obscured phrases: as, jod, an old accusative. Most conjunctions are connected with pronominal adverbs, which cannot always be referred to their original case-forms. Indo-European Language Association

8. Particles

8.5.2. Conjunctions connect words, phrases or sentences. They are divided in two main classes, Coordinate and Subordinate. 8.5.3. Coordinates are the oldest ones, which connect coordinated or similar constructions. Most of them were usually put behind and were normally used as independent words. They are: i. Copulative or disjunctive, implying a connection or separation of thought as well as of words; as, -qe, and, -wē, or, toqe, also, joqe, atqe, and, itaqe, and also, neqe, nor, enim, and. NOTE. For PIE neqe, compare Lat. ne-que, Gk. οὕτε, Arm. oc, O.Ir. nó, nú, Welsh ne-u, O.Bret. no-u, Alb. a-s, Lyc. ne-u, Luw. napa-wa, and for PIE mēqe, in Greek and Indo-Iranian, but also in Toch. ma-k and Alb. mo-s. The parallel newe is found in Anatolian, Indo-Iranian, Italic and Celtic dialects.

ii. Adversative, implying a connection of words, but a contrast in thought: as, ma, but, auti, or, autim, perti, otherwise, ati, but, ōd, and, but, ektós, excepted. NOTE. Adversative conjunctions of certain antiquity are at(i) (cf. Goth. adh-, Lat. at, Gk. atár), (s)ma/(s)me (cf. Hitt.,Pal. ma, Lyd. -m, Lyc. me, Gk. má, mé, Messap. min), auti (cf. Lat. autem, aut, Gk. aute, authis, autis, autár), ōd, “and, but” (cf. O.Ind. ād, Av. (ā)at, Lith. o, Sla. a), etc. In general, the oldest IE languages attested use the same Copulative postpositive conjunctions as Adversatives, their semantic value ascertained by the context.

iii. Causal, introducing a cause or reason: as, nam, for. iv. Illative, denoting an inference: as, tori, therefore, ar, thus, therefore, ita, swāi, so, ṇdha, then, s(w)eike, thus. 8.5.4. Subordinates connect a subordinate or independent clause with that on which it depends. They were introduced in PIE generally with relative clauses. The (rare) conjunctions that could have subordinate value included: a. -jo, and, which has a general subordinate value, usually Relative, Final or Conditional. NOTE. For common derivatives of PIE -jo, probably related to the relative pronoun, compare Hitt. -a/-ya, Toch. -/yo,It was probably replaced by -qe.

263

b. Conditional, denoting a condition or hypothesis; as, mān, ei, if, nemān, unless, sēd, sṇe, apart. NOTE. For ei, possibly related to i-, hence to jo and -jo, cf. Goth. -ei, Gk. eí, O.C.S. i, Lat. s-ī.

c. Comparative, implying comparison as well as condition; as, mān, as if. d. Concessive, denoting a concession or admission; as, eti, even, an, perhaps, au, howbeit, although, perom, besides. NOTE. For eti, even, and, cf. Lat. et, Gk. eti, nasalized ṇti in Germanic und-, as Goth., Eng. and.

e. Temporal: as, antí, prāi, before, pos(ti), after. g. Final, expressing purpose; as, uta, in order that, ne, that not. h. Causal, expressing cause; as, jodqid, because.

9. PROTO-INDO-EUROPEAN SYNTAX 9.1. THE SENTENCE A Sentence is a form of words which contains a Statement, a Question, an Exclamation, or a Command. a. A sentence in the form of a Statement is called a Declarative Sentence: as, the dog runs. b. A sentence in the form of a Question is called an Interrogative Sentence: as, does the dog run? c. A sentence in the form of an Exclamation is called an Exclamatory Sentence: as, how fast the dog runs ! d. A sentence in the form of a Command, an Exhortation, or an Entreaty is called an Imperative Sentence : as, go, run across the Alps; or let the dog run. NOTE. The content of this chapter on Syntax (but for the Morphosyntax section) is taken mostly from Winfred P. Lehmann’s Proto-Indo-European Syntax (1974): “The fundamental order of sentences in PIE appears to be OV. Support for this assumption is evident in the oldest texts of the materials attested earliest in the IE dialects. The fundamental order of sentences in these early dialects cannot be determined solely by frequency of sentence patterns. For, like other linguistic constructions, sentence patterns manifest marked as well as unmarked order. Marked order is expected in literary materials. The documents surviving from the earliest dialects are virtually all in verse or in literary forms of prose. Accordingly many of the individual sentences do not have the unmarked order, with verb final. For this reason conclusions about the characteristic word order of PIE and the early dialects will be based in part on those syntactic patterns that are rarely modified for literary and rhetorical effect: comparative constructions, the presence of postpositions and prepositions, and the absence of prefixes, (...)”. Lehmann is criticized by Friedrich (1975) who, like Watkins (1976) and Miller (1975), support a VO prehistoric situation, probably SVO (like those found in ‘central’ IE areas), with non-consistent dialectal SOV findings. In any case (viz. Lehmann and Miller), an older IE I or IE II OV (VSO for Miller) would have been substituted by a newer VO (SOV for Miller, later SVO through a process of verb transposition) – thus, all Indo-European dialects attested have evolved (thus probably from a common Late PIE trend) into a modern SVO.

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

Formal writings in Modern Indo-European should follow the patterns attested in the oldest inscriptions, i.e. (S)OV, as in Vedic Sanskrit, Ancient Greek, Old Latin and Avestan. A newer, general (S)VO order (found in Greek, Latin, Avestan, Germanic, etc.), reveals the change from OV in Middle PIE towards a newer VO that was replacing it already by Late PIE, and especially in North-West Indo-European.

9.1.1. KINDS OF SENTENCES PIE sentences were either Nominal, i.e. formed by nouns, or Verbal, if they included a verb. I. A Subject and a Predicate. The Subject of a sentence is the person or thing spoken of. The Predicate is that which is said of the Subject. a. The Subject is usually a Noun or Pronoun, or some word or group of words used as a Noun. b. The Predicate of a sentence may be a Verb (as the dog runs), or it may consist of some form of es and a Noun or Adjective which describes or defines the subject (as It is good). Such a noun or adjective is called a Predicate Noun or Adjective. II. In Proto-Indo-European, simple sentences may be composed of only one word, a noun or a verb; as, God!, or (it) rains. NOTE 1. Nominal sentences of this type are usually Interjections and Vocatives. Verbal sentences of this type include Imperatives (at least of 2nd P.Sg.) and impersonal verbs, which had never a subject in the oldest dialects attested; as, for Eng. (it) rains, cf. Goth. rigneiþ, Lat. pluit, Gk. ὓει, Skt. várṣati. It is believed that when IE dialects became SVO in structure, so that a subject was required, the third singular anaphoric pronoun, corresponding to it, German es, French il, etc., was introduced as subject in such sentences. Such pronouns were introduced because SVO languages must have subjects in sentences, as do intransitive verbs in any OV language. Such verbs could be supplemented by substantives in various cases, among them the accusative. These constructions are especially prominent for verbs referring to the emotions; as, Lat. miseret, pudet, taedet, Skr. kitaváṃ tatāpa. Compare also Cicero’s Lat. eōrum nōs miseret, or O.H.G. thes gánges thih nirthrúzzi. In PIE sentences various case forms could be used with verbs. The simplest sentences may consist of verbs accompanied by nouns in seven of the eight cases; only the vocative is not so used. The nouns fill the role of objects or, possibly better stated, of complements.

Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax NOTE 2. Besides the simple sentence which consists only of a verb, a simple sentence in the early dialects and in PIE could consist of a verb accompanied by a noun or pronoun as complement. A subject however wasn’t mandatory. Nor were other constructions which may seem to be natural, such as indirect objects with verbs like ‘give’. The root *dō- or in its earlier form *deH- had in its simplest sense the meaning ‘present’ and was often unaccompanied by any nominal expression (Lehmann).

9.1.2. NOMINAL SENTENCE Nominal sentences, in which a substantive is equated with another substantive, an adjective, or a particle, make up one of the simplest type of sentence in PIE. NOTE 1. Such a type of sentence is found in almost every IE dialect; cf. Hitt. attaš aššuš, “the father (is) good”, Skr. tváṃ váruṇa, “you (are) Varuna”, O.Pers. adam Dārayavauš, “I (am) Darius”, Lat. omnia praeclara rara, “all the best things (are) rare”, etc. In all dialects, however, such sentences were restricted in its use to a especially formal use or, on the contrary, they are found more often than originally in PIE. Thus, in Latin and Germanic dialects they are found in proverbs and sayings, as in Old Irish; in Greek it is also found in epic and poetry. However, in Balto-Slavic dialects the pure nominal sentence has become the usual type of nominal sentence, even when the predicate is an adverb or an adverbial case. However, such a use, which is more extended in modern dialects (like Russian) than in the older ones (as Old Slavic), is considered the result of Finno-Ugrian influence. NOTE 2. In the course of time a nominal sentence required a verb; this development is in accordance with the subjective characteristic of PIE and the endings which came to replace the individual qualifier markers of early PIE. The various dialects no longer had a distinct equational sentence type. Verbs might of course be omitted by ellipsis. And, remarkably, in Slavic, nominal sentences were reintroduced, as Meillet has demonstrated (1906-1908). The reintroduction is probably a result of influence from OV languages, such as the Finno-Ugric. This phenomenon illustrates that syntactic constructions and syntactic characteristics must be carefully studied before they can be ascribed to inheritance. In North Germanic too an OV characteristic was reintroduced, with the loss of prefixes towards the end of the first millennium A.D. (Lehmann 1970). Yet in spite of these subsequent OV influences, nominal sentences must be assumed for PIE.

A. There are traces of Pure Nominal Sentences with a predicate made by an oblique case of a noun or a prepositional compound, although they are not common to all IndoEuropean dialects. 267

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. Apart from Balto-Slavic examples (due to Finno-Ugric influence), only some isolated examples are found; cf. Skr. havyaír Agnír mánuṣa īrayádhyai, “Agni must be prayed with the sacrifices of men”, Gk. pàr hépoige kaì hálloi oi ké mé timḗsousi, “near me (there are) others who [particle] will praise me” (Mendoza).

B. In addition to such expansions by means of additional nouns in nonrequired cases, sentences could be expanded by means of particles. NOTE. For Lehmann, three subsets of particles came to be particularly important. One of these is the set of preverbs, such as ā. Another is the set of sentence connectives, such as Hitt. nu. The third is the set of qualifier expressions, e.g., PIE mē ‘(must) not’. An additional subset, conjunctions introducing clauses, will be discussed below in the section on compound clauses. Preverbs are distinctively characterized by being closely associated with verbs and modifying their meaning. In their normal position they stand directly before verbs (Watkins 1964).

Generally, thus, Concordance governed both members of the Pure Nominal Sentence. NOTE. Unlike the personal verb and its complements (governed by inflection), the Nominal Sentence showed a strong reliance on Concordance between Subject and Predicate as a definitory feature: both needed the same case, and tended to have the same number and gender.

THE COPULATIVE VERB The copulative verb es- is only necessary when introducing late categories in the verbal morphology, like Time and Mood. Therefore, when the Mood is the Indicative, and the Time is neuter (proverbs without timing, or Present with semantic neuter) there is no need to use es. NOTE 1. The basic form of nominal sentences has, however, been a matter of dispute. Some Indo-Europeanists propose that the absence of a verb in nominal sentences is a result of ellipsis and assume an underlying verb es- ‘be’ (Benveniste 1950). They support this assumption by pointing to the requirement of such a verb if the nominal sentence is in the past tense; cf. Hitt. ABU.I̯A genzuu̯alaš ešta, “My father was merciful”. On the contrary, Meillet (1906-1908),

followed by Lehmann and Mendoza, thought that nominal sentences did not require a verb but that a verb might be included for emphasis. This conclusion may be supported by noting that the qualifiers which were found in PIE could be used in nominal sentences without a verb. As an example we may cite a Hittite sentence which is negative and imperative, 1-aš 1-edani

menahhanda lē idāluš, “One should not be evil toward another one”. Yet, if a passage was to be

Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax explicit, a form of es- could be used, as in Skr. nákir indra tvád úttaro ná jyyāṅ asti, “No one is higher than you, Indra, nor greater”. NOTE 2. On the original meaning of es-, since Brugmann (1925) meant originally “exist” hence its use as a copulative verb through constructions in which the predicate express the existence of the subject, as in Hom. Gk. eím Oduseús Laertiádes, “I am Odisseus, son of Laertes” (Mendoza). In PIE times there were seemingly other verbs (with similar meanings of ‘exist’) which could be used as copulatives; compare IE bheu-, “exist, become, grow” (cf. O.Ind. bhávati, or as supletives in Lat. past fui, O.Ir. ba, O.Lith. búvo, fut. bùs, O.C.S. impf. bease, etc.), Germanic wes-, ‘live, dwell’.

9.1.3. VERBAL SENTENCE The most simple structure of the common Indo-European sentence consists of a verb, i.e. the carrying out of an action. In it, none of the verbal actors (Subject and Object) must be expressed – the subject is usually not obligatory, and the object appears only when it is linked to the lexical nature of the verb. NOTE. The oldest morphological categories, even time, were expressed in the PIE through lexical means, and many remains are found of such a system; cf. Hitt. -za (reflexive), modal particles in Gk. and O.Ind., modal negation in some IE dialects, or the simple change in intonation, which made interrogative or imperative a declarative sentence – in fact, the imperative lacks a mark of its own.

The relationship between the Subject and the Object is expressed through the case. There is no clear morphological distinction between transitive and intransitive verbs in Proto-Indo-European. NOTE. Some Indo-European dialects have specialized some verbal suffixes as transitives (causatives) or intransitives, as Gk. -en, Gmc. -io, Lat. -a, etc., while in some others a preverb combined with a verbal root makes the basic verb transitive or intransitive.

When subjects are explicitly expressed, the nominative is the case employed. NOTE. Expression of the subject is the most prominent extension of simple sentences to include more than one substantival expression. Besides such explicit mention of the subject, predicates may consist of verbs accompanied by two or more nouns, in cases which supplement the meanings of the verbs (v.i.). Such constructions must be distinguished from the inclusion of additional nouns whose case forms indicate adverbial use.

269

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

Few verbs are mandatorily accompanied by two nouns. 1. the use of the dative in addition to the accusative, as in Skr. tbhiām enaṃ pári dehi, ‘Give him over to those two’. 2. the instrumental and ablative, as Skr. áhan vṛtrám ... índro vájreṇa, ‘Indra killed ... Vṛtra with his bolt’. Skr. tváṃ dásyūm̐r ókaso agna ājaḥ, ‘You drove the enemies from

the house, O Agni.’ NOTE.

While the addition to these sentences which is indicated by the nouns in the

instrumental and the ablative is essential for the meaning of the lines in their context, it does not need to be included in the sentence for syntactic reasons.

3. The causative accompanied by two accusatives, as Skr. devn̐ uśataḥ pāyayā havíḥ,

‘Make the desiring gods drink the libation’.

In such sentences the agent-accusative represents the object of the causative element: as Arthur A. Macdonell indicated (1916), in a corresponding simple sentence this noun would have been given in the nominative, as Skr. dev havíḥ pibanti, ‘The gods drink the libation’.

Accordingly a simple verb in PIE was at the most accompanied by one substantive, unless the additional substantive was complementary or adverbial. LOCAL CASES: PREDICATES WITH TWO OR MORE SUBSTANTIVES Nonmandatory case forms are found in great variety, as may be determined from the studies of substantival inflections and their uses. Five groups of adverbial elements are identified: (1) circumstance, purpose, or result; (2) time; (3) place; (4) manner; (5) means. 1) Additional case forms may be used to indicate the Purpose, Result, or Circumstance of an action. So e.g. the Instrumental in Skr. mṛḷáyā naḥ suastí, ‘Be gracious to us for our wellbeing’. The Dative was commonly used in this sense, as in the infinitival form Skr. prá ṇa yur jīváse soma tārīḥ ‘Extend our years, soma, for our living [so that we may live long].’, NOTE. Cf. Hitt. nu-kan mNana-Luin kuin DUMU.LUGAL ANA mNuwanza haluki para nehhun, ‘and the prince NanaLUiš whom I sent to Nuwanza to convey the message’ where Hittite dative noun haluki. (Raman 1973).

When an animate noun is involved, this use of the dative has been labeled the indirect object; as, Skr. riṇákti kṛṣṇ raṛuṣya pánthām, ‘Black night gives up the path to the red sun’. NOTE. As these examples may indicate, the dative, like the other cases, must be interpreted with reference to the lexical properties of the verbal element.

2) A further adverbial segment in sentences indicates the Time of Occurrence. The cases in question are various, as in Skr. dívā náktaṃ śárum asmád yuyotam, ‘By day and during the night protect us from the arrow’. NOTE. The nominal form dívā, which with change of accent is no longer an instrumental but an adverbial form outside the paradigm, and the accusative náktaṃ differ in meaning. The instrumental, like the locative, refers to a point in time, though the “point” may be extended; the accusative, to an extent of time. Differing cases accordingly provide different meanings for nouns marked for the lexical category time.

3) Nouns indicating Place also differ in meaning according to case form: A. The Accusative indicates the goal of an action, as in Lat. Rōmam īre ‘go to Rome’, Hitt. tuš alkištan tarnahhe ‘and those (birds) I release to the branch’ (Otten and Souček 1969:38 § 37). B. The Instrumental indicates the place “over which an action extends” (Macdonell 1916: 306): sárasvatyā yānti ‘they go along the Sarasvatī’. C. The Ablative indicates the starting point of the action: sá ráthāt papāta ‘he fell from his chariot’; and the following example from Hittite (Otten and Souček 1969): iššaz (š)mit lālan AN.BARaš [d]āi, ‘He takes the iron tongue out of their mouths.’ D. The Locative indicates a point in space, e.g., Skt. diví ‘in heaven’ or the locative kardi in the following Hittite example (Otten and Souček): kardi-šmi-i̯a-at-kán dahhun, ‘And I

took away that [illness which was] in your heart’.

Nouns with lexical features for place and for time may be used in the same sentence, as in Skr. ástam úpa náktam eti, ‘He goes during the night to the house’. Although both nouns are in the Accusative, the differing lexical features lead to different interpretations of the case. In this way, inflectional markers combine with lexical features to yield a wide variety of adverbial elements.

4) Among the adverbial elements which are most diverse in surface forms are those referring to Manner. Various cases are used, as follows. A. The Accusative is especially frequent with adjectives, such as Skt. kṣiprám ‘quickly’, bahú ‘greatly’, nyák ‘downward’. B. The Instrumental is also used, in the plural, as in Skt. máhobhiḥ ‘mightily’, as well as in the singular, sáhasā ‘suddenly’. Similar to the expression of manner is the instrumental used to express the sense of accompaniment: Skr. devó devébhir ā́gamat, ‘May the god come [in such a way that he is] accompanied by the other gods’. C. The Ablative is also used to express manner in connection with a restricted number of verbs such as those expressing ‘fear’: réjante víśvā kṛtrímāṇi bhīṣ, ‘All creatures tremble fearfully’. 5) Adverbial expressions of Means are expressed especially by the instrumental; as, Skr. áhan vṛtrám ... índro vájreṇa, ‘Indra killed ... Vṛtra with his bolt.’ The noun involved frequently refers to an instrument; cf. Hitt. kalulupuš šmuš gapinit hulaliemi, ‘I wind the thread around their fingers’. Animate nouns may also be so used. When they are, they indicate the agent: agnínā turváṣaṃ yáduṃ parāváta ugr devaṃ havāmahe, ‘Through Agni we call from far Turvasa, Yadu, and Ugradeva’. This use led to the use of the instrumental as the agent in passive constructions.

9.2. MORPHOSYNTAX 9.2.1. VERBAL MORPHOSYNTAX In addition to its lexical meaning, the finite verb consists of grammatical categories, which are in turn composed of the following five dimensions: person, number, mode, tense-aspect, and diathesis. NOTE. Information on PIE morphosyntax is almost exclusively taken (literally or modified) from M Meier-Brügger’s Indo-European Linguistics (2003).

a. The categories in themselves are three categories of number (singular, dual and plural), the four modes (indicative, imperative, subjunctive, optative), the four tenseaspects (present, aorist, perfect, future), and the three diatheses (active, middle, passive). b. Transitivity is not marked morphologically, but rather is expressed through the presence of an accusative morpheme in the complement. 9.2.1.1. PERSON AND NUMBER 1. Within the dimension of person, PIE features three categories which are normally numbered following the example of grammarians of antiquity. In the singular, the first person indicates the speaker; the second, the person to whom he speaks; and the third, that about which one speaks. Thus, the first person refers in every case to a human being, or rather to an object that is thought of as animated. The second person essentially refers to a being that is thought of as listening, or an accordingly conceived object. The third person, on the other hand, has no natural tendency to indicate either living beings, or objects, and can indicate the one just as well as the other. The plural of the first or second person does not necessarily indicate that there is more than one speaker, or people, to whom one speaks, but may simply indicate that the speaker and listener represent groups. The distinction between the inclusive first person plural (‘we’, i.e. including the speaker, his group, and the listener) and exclusive first person plural (‘we’, i.e. the speaker and his group, without the inclusion of the listener) cannot be reconstructed as Proto-Indo-European. That which is true of the plural, also applies to the dual. 2. In the verbal as n the nominal number categories, PIE features a singular, a plural and a dual. In the case of the verb, number refers to the number of living beings or things that are indicated by the subject noun. The number plural does not indicate that the verbal activity takes place repeatedly or over a longer duration; this is expressed by the activity type of the verb (Dressler 1968). Number is the dimension in which, in general, agreement exists between verbal and nominal inflection, namely the agreement between the finite verbal form of the predicate and nominal form of the nominative subject. The verbal aspect of ‘person’ must, with

273

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

regard to agreement, be considered in another light: aside from its reflection in the verb form, ‘person’ is not a grammatical category, but rather a lexical one, one that is firmly linked to the personal pronoun. 9.2.1.2. TENSE-ASPECT AND MOOD 1. The dimensions ‘tense-aspect’ and ‘mood’ are linked in their functions and appear together. While tense and aspect are represented within a single morpheme and are thus connected with each other in terms of content, the category of ‘mood’ is sometimes expressed using a proper modal morpheme, as in the cases of the subjunctive and optative, and is sometimes expressed through the use of different endings (indicative, injunctive, imperative). 2. Using aspect, the speaker places the verbal action in a chronological relationship, whereby he specifies whether the verbal action is completed (perfective aspect) or in course (imperfective aspect). When the grammar of a language includes this distinction, the language in question is considered an aspectual language. Aspect is a grammatical dimension. NOTE. H. Rix theorizes that an earlier phase of Proto-Indo-European featured a larger number of categories within the aspect dimension, and otherwise no longer distinguished between grammatical aspect and lexical aspect, rather uniting the two under the rubric ‘aspect-action type’.

3. Unlike grammatical aspect, lexical aspect (i.e. manner of action, or Aktionsart) is a property of the verbal meaning, and thus belongs to the lexical realm. Lexical aspects are not uniform in terms of content: They sometimes refer to the process of verbal activity, sometimes to the subject. Lexical aspects that refer to the process of verbal activity may be divided into telic and atelic lexical aspects, the former being those that only last a moment, the latter, those of more significant duration. Telic lexical aspect may be the result of the verbal activity as a whole (momentative), of its beginning (initialterminative), or of its end (final-terminative). Atelic lexical aspect is a feature of verbal activities that last longer (durative), or are repeated (iterative). Lexical aspects that refer to the subject may concern a desire of that subject (desiderative), or the bringing about of a state of affairs (factitive), or the cause of an event (causative). In terms of contents, lexical aspects are sometimes similar to grammatical categories, e.g. the desiderative lexical aspect and the optative mood, which overlap in the first person singular when the Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax

speaker and subject are one and the same. The factitive and the causative lexical aspects correspond to the active voice. Because lexical aspect and aspect are sometimes similar, the lexical aspect system can be carried over into the grammatical aspect system and vice versa, as may be observed in the evolution of Proto-Indo-European into the individual languages. Evidence of the change from lexical aspect to a grammatical aspect may even be observed in suppletive verbal paradigms with stem forms of different verbal roots, e.g. ‘carry’, ‘bring’: Lat. pres ferō vs. perf. tulī; Gk. pres pherō vs. aor. éneukon. 4. Proto-Indo-European features three tense-aspect stems for expressing tense and aspect: aorist stem, present stem, and imperfect stem. The imperfect stem is formed from the present stem. The indicative forms of the tense stem only indicate the present (indicative present, perfect) and past (indicative aorist, imperfect); future actions were expressed through the subjunctive mood. NOTE. In the post-Proto-Indo-European period, there were, aside from the languages that continued the use of the subjunctive, various other means of expressing future actions, including a new future stem formation (v.s.). Periphrastic future was express by means of an auxiliary verb, usually meaning “become” in North-West IE, while Hittite had “come” o “go” (cf. Hitt. uwami/paimi) + present. Vedic had also a form in -tar- (nomen agentis) + copula.

5. In its task as an indicator of tense, the present stem reveals a similarity to both the perfect stem and the aorist stem. The Perfect, like the present indicative, refers to the present tense, indicating a state of affairs to which the verbal action led, e.g. ‘the goat has eaten’, i.e. ‘the goat is sated’. On the other hand, the Imperfect, which derives from the present stem, has in common with the aorist a reference to the past tense: The imperfect and the indicative aorist differ only in their stem forms and are otherwise formally identical. The indicative aorist cannot be used to indicate the present tense, since the indicative aorist paradigms do not feature primary endings that indicate the ‘here and now’ of the communication process. This is due to the perfective aspect, which in the indicative excludes the possibility of referring to the present and has more of a future meaning. The Proto-Indo-European aorist and perfect categories merged into the perfect in Latin. Examples:

275

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

a) Present: Plautus Trinummus 400, aperiuntur aedes “the house is opened”; l 100 nóston díznai meliēdéa “You seek honey-sweet homecoming”, RV 10, 107, 7 dákṣiṇśvam dákṣiṇā gṃ dadāti “the Dakṣiṇā gives a steed, the Dakṣiṇā gives a cow”. b) Imperfect: Plautus Casina 178, nam ego ibam ad te “for I came to you”; M 152 mála gàr kraterōs emákhonto, “for they fought very hard”. c) Aorist: D 459 tón rh' ébale prōtos “It was him that he hit first”; RV 10, 85, 41 rayíṃ ca putrmś cādād “He gave riches and sons”. d) Perfect: Plautus Captivi, 575 servos es, liber fuisti “A slave you are; free you have been”; t 72 kakà dè khroi eímata eímai “I have bad clothing on my skin”; RV 4, 16, 6 apó rireca “he released the water”. 6. Aside from the category of tense, the Aorist stem indicates the perfective aspect, the Present stem the imperfective aspect, and the Perfect stem a sort of resultative aspect. While the present and the aorist form a dichotomy, the perfect is isolated outside of this dichotomy. The isolated position of the perfect is also shown by the fact that the perfect, unlike the aorist and the present, has no moods other than the indicative, while it is precisely in the moods other than the indicative that the aspectual opposition of aorist and present is relevant. It thus remains questionable whether or not one may speak of aspect in the case of the perfect. In any case, the perfect is situated outside of the aspectual opposition of the present and the aorist. NOTE. H. Rix thus describes the qualities of the perfect: “Primary affixes as reduplication, mark, among other things, modes of action in PIE, and differences of the endings distinguish, among other things, voices. The PIE perfect, therefore, is to be defined as a certain mode of action that appears in a certain voice only”.

7. The Indicative is used for statements to which the speaker lends validity: By using the indicative, the speaker gives his statement the character of a true statement. Whether or not the contents of the statements in fact correspond to reality, is of course uncertain. Examples – D 443 epí khthonì baínei “she runs on the earth”; RV 1, 105, 1 candrámā apsvàntár  suparṇó dhāvate diví “the beautifully winged moon runs in the waters across the sky”. 8. According to K. Hoffman (Injunktiv 1967), the Injunctive serves to mention an action, without specifying chronology. Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax NOTE. The injunctive in Vedic expresses verbal definiteness, or the presumed validity of an action. It receives a special function in prohibitive phrases in which it is then used in combination with the negation m in order to express that something is forbidden.

9. The Imperative, particularly the true, 2nd person imperative, holds a special place in the verbal paradigm, similar to that in the nominal paradigm occupied by the vocative, which is equally directed to a listener, and with which the imperative shares the formal characteristic of having a singular form which is composed of the stem without an ending, with no sign of its connection to the sentence. Examples – Plautus, Mostellaria, 387 habe bonum animum “have good courage”; B 331 áll’ áge mímnete pántes “come now, stay”; RV 1, 16, 6 tm indra sáhase piba “Drink this, oh Indra, for strength”. In addition to the true imperative, which expresses a request or an order that demands the immediate execution of the verbal activity, another form of expression for instructions and requests with a temporal function developed from the association of this imperative form with the ablative of the demonstrative pronoun PIE tōd. While these instructions and requests have the immediate validity of the true imperative, they do not bring about the immediate execution of the verbal activity. Interdictions, or negative orders or requests, are, unlike positive orders and requests, not expressed with the imperative, but rather with the injunctive in connection with the negation PIE mē (or nē). The use of the infinitive to name the prohibited verbal activity in early PIE dialects is comparable. 10. According to Delbrück’s investigations of fundamental notions (Ai. Syntax 1888), the Subjunctive mood expresses a will, while the Optative mood expresses a wish. It is important to note that the will or the wish (as the case may be) that is meant is that of the speaker, and not that of the subject, or, more precisely stated, that of the actor that is designated by the nominative form. The wish of the subject was originally expressed through its own derivational verbal form, namely, the desiderative. For Gonda (1956), the characteristic properties are ‘visualization’ for the subjunctive, and ‘eventuality’ for the optative. According to A. Scherer (1969), “the subjunctive draws the conclusion from a given situation. The subjunctive would then indicate a state of affairs, which according to the relevant facts, may be accepted as factual (i.e. concluded from the circumstances 277

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

to be necessarily true), while the indicative reports what the speaker knows (or believes to know), or asserts as a fact. The optative characterizes merely that the state of affairs was thought”. a. The Subjunctive, which originally indicates the future, has two functions: In its prospective function, it serves to express things that happen in the future, while in its voluntative function, it indicates the will of the speaker. The subjunctive is used to express his will when he considers that it is within his power to bring about the verbal action. A declaration of will in a strict sense is only possible when the speaker has direct influence on events, such that that which is desired may also be executed. This means that a true expression of will may only be in the first person singular, while all other cases are equally requests. If the first person subjunctive is taken as a request made of oneself, a connection to the second and third person subjunctive is possible in which the speaker has no direct influence on the realization of the verbal action, so that the statement may only be understood as a request. A further connection may be made with the 1st person plural, in which the speaker communicates his own will, and at the same time directs a request to others. Examples: a) 1 sg.: Plautus Cacchides 1049 quod perdundumst properem perdere “what may be lost, I will/want to hurry up and lose”; u 296 áll’ áge oí kaì egṓ dō kseínion “thus I will/want to give a gift of welcome also to him”; RV 10, 39, 5 purāṇ vāṃ vīry prá bravā jáne, “your earlier heroic deeds I will/want to announce to all people”; RV 6, 59, 1 prá nú vocā sutéṣu vām “On the occasion of the pressing, I thus will/want to announce the heroic deeds of both of you”. b) 1 pl.: W 601 nun dè mnēsṓmetha dórpou “now we will/want to think about the meal”; RV 5, 51, 12 svastáye vāyúm úpa bravāmahai “We will/want to call to Vaayu for the sake of welfare”. c) 2nd person: Plautus, Mostellaria, 388 taceas “you should remain silent”; RV 4, 31, 3

̥̄ m satám bhavāsi ūtíbhiḥ “you, oh helper of the abh ṣú naḥ sákhīnām avit jaritrn

singer’s friends, will/should protect us well with a hundred helps”.

d) 3rd person: Plautus, Captivi 115 sed uti adserventur magna diligentia “but they should be guarded with great care”; H 197 oú gár tís me bíē ge ekòn aékonta díētai “For Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax

none will/should force me to leave against my own will”; H 87 kaí poté tis eípēsi kaì ópsigónōn ánthrṓpōn “and one day, even one of the descendants will say”; RV 8, 1, 22 sá sunvaté ca stuvaté ca rāsate “who will/should give both to him who presses, and to him who prizes” RV 10, 81, 7 sá no víśvāni hávanāni joṣad “That man will/should be friendly and take receipt of all our sacrifices”. b. The Optative, which originally indicates possibility, has two functions, either expressing the wish of the speaker (desiderative function), or expressing possibility (potential function). When the optative is used to express a wish, the speaker indicates that he is not directly able to bring about the verbal action. The optative proves to be more uniform that the subjunctive, given that in its cupitive function, the optative, independently of the category of person, always indicates a simple wish of the speaker, regardless of his influence on the realization of the verbal action. Examples of the potential function: – Plautus, Amphitruo, 1060 nec me miserior femina est neque ulla videatur magis “a more miserable woman than myself does not exist, and will most probably never be seen”; Terence, Eunuchus, 511 roget quis “one might ask”; Z 122f. oú tis keínon anḕr alalḗmenos elthṑn alléllōn peíseie gunaiká te kaì phílon uión “a man, who comes traveling with news of that, could not convince his son and the woman”; RV 5, 50, 1 víśvo devásya netúr márto vurīta sakhyám “each mortal will likely desire the friendship of the leading god”. Examples of the desiderative function: a) 1st person: S 121 nun dè kléos esthlón apoímēn “and now I would like to wrest noble fame”; RV 6, 13, 6 víśvābhir gīrbhír abhí pūrtím aśyām “by all songs, I would like to obtain fulfillment”; RV 1, 4, 6 syméd índrasya sármani “we would like to be under Indra’s protection”. b) 3rd person: Terence, Eunuchus, 302 ut illum di deaeque senium perdant “that elder is the one that the gods and the goddesses would like to ruin”; A 18 umïn mèn theoì doïen “to you indeed, the gods like to give”; P 416f. all’autou gaïa mélaina’ pasi khánoi “the black earth should open to all precisely here”; RV 5, 21, 4 deváṃ vo devayajyáyaagnim īḷīa mártyaḥ “the mortal should praise your god Agni through worship”. In terms of content, the similarity between the prospective function of the subjunctive and the potential function of the optative is evident in the comparison of Z 459 kaí poté 279

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

tis eípēsin “one day, someone will say” and Z 479 kaí poté tis eípoi “one day, someone will in all likelihood say”. 9.2.1.3. DIATHESIS 1. Within the dimension of diathesis, three categories may initially be reconstructed: active, middle and stative. 2. Active and middle voices may be distinguished formally by their endings, v.s. However, in terms of content, the attribution of agentivity to the active voice and patientivity to the middle voice is not tenable: Lexemes with active contents are not always used in the active voice, just the same as lexemes with patientive content are not always used in the middle voice. Owing to the incompatibility of lexical meanings with one or the other voice, some verbs only occur in either the active or the middle voice. 3. Originally, the middle voice had a reflexive meaning, thus incorporating the function of the passive voice. The middle voice appears when the verbal action affects the subject directly or indirectly, or, when the verbal action does not have an affect beyond the subject. When the subject is plural or dual, the middle voice also expresses reciprocity. 4. In addition to the active and middle voices, a third diathesis category may be distinguished, the stative, indicating a state of being (related to the Perfect and early Middle endings, v.s.). The stative voice expresses the subject’s state of being. In ProtoIndo-European, the stative merges on the one hand with the middle voice, which, in addition to its original reflexive meaning, takes on the additional ‘state of being’ meaning of the stative, and on the other hand, forms the basis for the perfect, which formally differs from the stative by its reduplication. NOTE. H. Rix describes the earlier distribution of functions that became the middle voice in the following way: “It is quite obvious how to distribute the two functions of the more recent middle voice among these two older voices: the content of the middle was the reflexive along with the passive, and the content of the stative was the deponent”. Rix emphasizes that the middle voice is more related to the stative voice than to the perfect mood: “It is this voice ‘stative’ and not the mode of action ‘perfect’, that is the partner of the voice middle”.

5. The function of the category ‘passive’, which appears in many IE languages, but did not exist as a grammatical category in Proto-Indo-European, was performed by the

Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax

middle voice. The various IE languages that feature a passive voice each formed it independently from each other (v.s.). 6. According to I. Mel’čuk, there is a difference between ‘diathesis’ and ‘voice’. According to his view, one speaks of ‘diathesis’ in cases in which forms of the same verb that are commonly said to differ in voice cannot be used to describe the same real situation. Such is the case of middle voice forms and their corresponding active forms. On the other hand, the possibility of referring to the same real situation exists in the case of the passive forms that correspond to active forms. In this case, one speaks of ‘voice’. 9.2.1.4. PERIPHRASTIC CONSTRUCTIONS Relative to the ancient IE languages, periphrastic constructions of the type Lat. quid futūrum est ‘what should that become’, or quod habeō tollere ‘what I intend to take’, are considered new. However, such forms are attested in the Hittite of the 2nd millennium BC, e.g. the ḫark- constructions for the perfect and pluperfect. If in fact the Latin perfect of the type portāvī may be traced to the periphrase *portāwosis esom (i.e. an active perfect participle with -wos- + verbum substantivum), then also it must date from prehistoric period. Thus, it may not be ruled out that ProtoIndo-European already featured several periphrastic constructions. NOTE. Meier-Brügger (2003) further states: “I also consider cases such as the following to be similar to paraphrases: Lat. vēndere < vēnum *dide- ‘to put up for sale’, in the sense of ‘to sell’ vs. venīre < vēnum īre ‘to go for sale’ in the sense of ‘to be sold’ (dide must here be traced to PIE *dheh1-, and not to *deh3-! (…) Or, similarly, interficere ‘to separate (from life), to make disappear’, in the sense of ‘to kill’, vs. interīre ‘to go and disappear’ in the sense of ‘to decline’ (facere makes clear that this is a case of PIE *dheh1-). This combination of substantivized verb or preverb and *dheh1- (in the active sense), or *h1ei-, ‘to go’ (in the passive sense) certainly dates from a pre-individual language period”.

9.2.2. NOMINAL MORPHOSYNTAX The verb, with its system of categories, presents a contrast with all other inflectable parts of speech, which share a common system of categories. For this reason, one speaks of nominal categories when speaking not only of the noun, which includes substantives and adjectives, but also when speaking of pronouns. The commonalities that combine these word types are the case and number categories 281

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

In the case of adjectives and gendered pronouns, the dimension fo gender is not directly linked to the lexeme. The personal pronoun plays a special role among the pronouns and nouns, not just because it does not distinguish between gender, but also because personal pronouns, unlike other pronouns, do not in fact take the place of nouns, which is why it would be better to use the term ‘personals’. Unlike the case of verbs, the dimension ‘person’ in personal pronouns is lexical. 9.2.2.1. CASE 1. To each case may be attributed a certain meaning. To be certain, the meaning may vary from the central meaning in certain cases. Meanings of cases vary as do lexical meanings, according to context. However, two opposing meanings may not be unified in a single linguistic symbol. The meaning of a case is generally independent of context, while the various functions are determined by the context. In the wider context of a sentence, there are certain roles that may be assigned to the various nominal forms that appear in the sentence. These roles, however, are independent of the linguistic symbol and concern the actual situation, which may be described quite variously by the speaker. The same actual situation may thus be described in an active construction, or in a passive construction: The cat ate the mouse. – The mouse was eaten by the cat. In the one case, the nominative form ‘cat’ corresponds to the agens, in the other, the nominative form ‘mouse’ corresponds to the patiens. Agens and patiens are two opposing roles, which may neither be assigned as different meanings of a single linguistic symbol, nor classified as functions of a single meaning. As roles, agens and patiens are separated from the linguistic symbol of the nominative and may not be indicated by the nominative. Rather, the nominative indicates that which is in the foreground, thus, the theme; whether the agens or the patiens provides the theme is unimportant. 2 The claim is often made that case meaning is least distinct in the case of complements, and most distinct in the case of extensions. According to W. U. Dressler: “case forms are obligatory completions of verbs (…) subjects and objects are automatic results of the use of verbs, which, in their dependence schemes, present corresponding fillable spaces” and further “here remains the function of case in the facultative extension of the sentence. Here, the case has syntactical value of its own”; Haudry: “As a general Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax

rule, one may assert that government tends to deprive the case of its own semantic contents; a governed use is defined by a function. Positive semantic contents may only appear in free uses”; Pinkster: “the semantic relations within a sentence are revealed by the cases only to a very limited extend, because: - within the nuclear predication the predicate determines the possibility of lexemes to occur as arguments with the predicate; the number and nature of the semantic functions are fixed for each verb; - outside the nuclear predication the lexical meaning itself determines to a high degree whether a lexeme may be used with a given semantic function”. However, the claim may not be made with such a comprehensive validity (Hettrich 1988). Because the nominative does not occur as an extension, its meaning as a complement cannot be compared with that of an extension. The locative, on the other hand, may always indicate a spatial relationship, regardless of whether it is a complement or a given. 3. Although they have meanings that sometimes vary greatly, different cases fit into a single paradigm: Thus, in terms of content, the nominative case, when used to indicate a grammatical subject, is completely different from the locative case when it is used to indicate the spatial aspects of the verbal action. a. The order in which cases are listed originates in Sanskrit grammar, in which the cases in the paradigm that were formally identical were grouped together in each of the three numbers. However, this formal criterion is not a purely external characteristic. This formal identity is also generally defensible in relation to meaning, just as the partial formal fusion of various case forms may be seen as a preliminary phase of case syncretism. b. Proto-Indo-European cases may be classified into groups according to aspects of content: There are cases with rather abstract meaning, that cross-reference within the language system, and others that have rather concrete meaning, referring primarily to language-external reality. This differentiation is not new, but must not be seen as an absolute classification, since individual cases are situated between the two poles, able to be used concretely or syntactically. Cases assume particular meanings in the establishment of spatial relations of the verbal action: The spatial cases are the locative (where?), the accusative (where…to?), and the ablative (where…from?). The noun that indicates the place to which the verbal action 283

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

refers is declined in one of these cases, allowing that which is signified by the subject (in the case of intransitive verbs), or that which is signified by the object (in the case of transitive verbs), to be spatially situated. That which is spatially situated is referred to as the locatum; that which refers to the place of reference, is the relatum. 4. A common phenomenon of the linguistic development from Proto-Indo-European to the IE languages is case syncretism, which means that cases which were originally separate from each other and distinguishable by their endings, were subsumed into a single ending. The spectrum of meaning of the resulting case becomes correspondingly broad, rendering the task of discerning a basic meaning of the case more difficult. In Latin, the ablative represents the merger of three cases: instrumental, ablative and locative. In Greek, the PIE instrumental and locative cases merged to form the dative, and the ablative was subsumed in the genitive. NOMINATIVE The Nominative occupies a special position within the nominal paradigms of IE languages. This position is revealed by, among other things, the fact that in Old Indian – apart from neuter forms – all three numbers are formed on the basis of the strong stem and that the columnal nominal accent in Greek follows the accent position in the nominative case. Within the realm of syntax as well, the nominative traditionally plays a special role as the casus rectus, which contrasts with all the other casus obliqui of the paradigm. The nominative indicates the theme of the sentence which, in a non-marked sentence, is placed in sentence-initial position. Other sentence elements are also thematized in taking the sentence-initial position, which, in the non-marked sentence, is reserved for the subject. “The Proto-Indo-European nominative does not indicate the subject of an action in the logical sense, but rather in the sense that appears to the observer to be bearer and middle-point of the action that is expressed by the verb” (Delbrück 1879). However, this does not apply to the interrogative pronoun, which places its referent in the middlepoint, even when it does not take the subject position and is not the bearer of the verbal action. The concept of the subject is itself difficult to grasp; for H.-J. Sasse it is “a

syntactical relation with semantic and pragmatic functions… [the] sentence element that is indicated as the subject has a doubled function as it is both pragmatic (as an indicator of the topic of the sentence) and semantic (as an identifier of the agent). This doublefunction finds expressing in its syntactical characteristics (Sasse, 1982). VOCATIVE The Vocative is the nominal form that is used for addressing a listener. There is only a distinct vocative in the singular, and even then, not all nominal paradigms feature a separate vocative form. Where there is no separate vocative, its function is taken by the nominative. The same occurs when two actions of addressing are linked: While the first is in the vocative, the second is in the nominative. – Examples: G 276f. Zeu páter…Héliós th’ “Oh father Zeus and Helios”; RV 3, 25, 4 ágna índraś ca “Oh Agni and Indra”. i. The vocative element in the sentence receives no accent. – Example: RV 1, 184, 2 asmé ū ṣú vṛṣaṇā mādayethām “Enjoy yourselves nicely, you two heroes, in our company”. ii. In Old Indian, when the vocative forms a sentence of its own, and is thus in sentenceinitial position, it receives stress, regardless of its normal nominal accent, on its first syllable, i.e. on the first syllable of the sentence. In this case, sentence stress is meant and not word stress. – Example: AV 19, 70, 1 dévā jvata “Gods! Live!” ACCUSATIVE The Accusative has two apparently very different functions: On the one hand, it indicates the direct object in the case of transitive verbs (i.e. accusative object), on the other hand, it expresses that the verbal action bears an orientation in terms of space (i.e. directional accusative). The accusative is further used to express spatial or chronological expanse (i.e. accusative of expanse). In addition, it expresses the relation of the verbal action to a referent in a non-spatial sense (relational accusative). Finally, the accusative is also used when the contents of a verb are additionally expressed through a noun which appears in the accusative (i.e. accusative of contents): The technical term for this use of a substantive and a verb with the same lexical contents is figura etymologica. The original meaning of the accusative is probably that of direction, in the sense of spatial relation.

285

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

The additional meanings that developed upon this basics include extent, relation, object and contents. i. According to Hübschmann (Casuslehre 1875), the accusative indicates the “completion or narrower definition of the verbal concept”, distinguishing an obligatoty accusative, i.e. the object accusative, from a facultative accusative. Delbrück (Gr. Syntax 1879) thus describes the use of the accusative: “Originally, it served neither to indicate the object, nor the destination, nor the relation, etc., but rather simply to complement the verb. The choice of senses in which this complement was to be understood was left to the listener”. He further asserts that there were “different types of uses…already in the Proto-Indo-European period”. ii. As an indicator of place, the accusative is similar to the locative which is also used to indicate the arrival at a destination toward which a movement was oriented. In contrast, although the accusative does not exclude the arrival at a destination, it is semantically indifferent to the question of arrival at a destination (García Ramón, 1995). NOTE. It remains disputed whether the local or grammatical meaning of the accusative is original According to G. De Boel (1988), the directional accusative is not inherited, but rather newly created.

iii. Equally unclear is the relationship in Proto-Indo-European of a specialized directional case, the ‘directive’, which was continued in Anatolian, to the directional accusative. According to G. Dunkel (1992), the directive only indicates the direction: “It expressed only the aim or direction of a movement”. In comparison, the accusative and the locative have additional meanings: the accusative indicates “attainment of the goal and entering it”; and the locative, “attainment of the goal…and…state of rest”. iv. Only miscellaneous remnants of the accusative of direction without the use of a preposition are extant in Latin, e.g. domum “to home”, rus “to the countryside”. Examples: a) Accusative of direction: A 322 érkhesthon klisíēn “go both of you to your tent”; K 195 ósoi keklḗato boulḗn “who where summoned for consultation”; TS 6, 2, 11, 4 yad múkhaṃ gachaty áthodáraṃ gachati “if it goes to the mouth, then it goes to the stomach”.

b) Accusative of extent: Plautus, Truculentus 278 noctem in stramentis pernoctare “to pass one night in the straw”; Psi 529 douròs erōḗn “at a spear throw’s distance”; l 190 kheima “in the winter”; TB 1, 3, 6, 3 saptádaśa pravyādhn ājíṃ dhāvanti “they run a race for a distance of seventeen times the range of one shot”; TB 1, 1, 3, 9, só asvatthé saṃvatsarám atiṣṭhat “he remained in the tree for one year”. c) Accusative of relation: Plautus, Menaechmi 511f. indutum…pallam “clothed in a dress”; E 354 melaíneto dè khróa kalón “and she was reddened on her beautiful skin”; SB 14, 7, 2, 27 nàinaṃ kṛtākṛté tapataḥ “neither things done, nor things undone hurt this one”. d) Object accusative: SB 14, 7, 1, 24 jíghran vái tád ghrātávyaṃ ná jighrati “truly smelling, he smells not what is to be smelled”. e) Accusative of content: Plautus, Captivi 358 quod bonis bene fit beneficium “which charitable act is well direct to the good”; O 414 álloi d’ ámph’ állēsi mákhēn emá-khonto néessin “here and there they fought the fight for the ships”; RV 8, 7, 4 yád ymaṃ ynti vāyúbhiḥ “when they go the way with the winds”. INSTRUMENTAL The instrumental case indicates that which accompanies the verbal activity. This meaning forms the basis from which other meanings have developed: In the case of inanimate objects, the instrumental indicates the means by which the verbal action is executed; in the case of a person, it indicates that the person executes, or helps to execute the action; in the case of places, it indicates where movement takes place. The instrumental further indicates constitution, accompanying circumstances, a reason, and in comparisons, the distinguishing characteristic. The function of the instrumental that relates to people, or ‘sociative’ function may be reconstructed in Late Proto-IndoEuropean. However, this function finds its origins in a use that is purely related to inanimate objects (K. Strunk 1993). In the indication of temporal circumstances, the instrumental bears a resemblance to the temporal locative. In Latin, the instrumental, like the locative, has merged into the ablative. In Greek, the instrumental has merged with the dative. Examples:

DATIVE When used to indicate people, the dative indicates an actor or actors who receive (action; [indirect] object dative) or possess (state; possessive dative). Further, while the dative is used to indicate one who is positively or negatively affected (dativus commodi/incommodi), only the quality of being affected is expressed by the dative; the positive or negative connotations themselves remain outside of the domain of the dative. When applied to abstract nouns, the dative indicates that the noun is the goal of an action (dativus finalis). This function is important for the formation of infinitive constructions. Examples: a) Relational dative: Plautus, Stichus 260 nullan tibi lingua est? “have you no tongue?”; Plautus, Mostellaria 293 tibi me exorno ut placeam “I adorn myself for you, in order to please”; Plautus, Rudens 229 quoniam vox mihi prope hic sonat? “what voice thus sounds for me so near?”; Plautus, Rudens 274 nunc tibi amplectimur genua “now we shall seize your knees”; Plautus, Truculentus 378 mihi quidem atque oculis meis “indeed for me and my eyes”; H 423 oí d’ ḗnteon allḗloisin “and they met one another”; H 101 tōde d’ egṑn autòs thōrḗksomai “and for this one I will arm myself”; A 4 autoús dè elṓria teukhe kúnessin “and he gave them to the dogs as prey”; E 249f. mēdé moi oútōs thune “do not rage so to me”; B 142 toïsi dè thumòn enì stḗthessin órine “and he stirred the soul in their chests”; Ps 595 daímosin eínai alitrós “to be a sinner to the gods”; RV 4, 12, 3 dádhāti rátnaṃ vidhaté…mártyāya “he distributred wealth to the devoted mortal”; RV 1, 15, 12 devn devayaté yaja “sacrifice to the gods for the worshipper of gods”; RV 2, 2, 8 átithis crur āyáve “a dear guest for the son of Āyu”. b) Dativus finalis: Plautus, Poenulus 626 ut quaestui habeant male loqui melioribus “that they have it as a gain, that they speak badly of their betters”; H 285 khármē prokaléssato “he called out to battle”; RV 1, 30, 6 ūrdhvás tiṣṭhā na ūtáye “be there upright to support us”. ABLATIVE The Ablative expresses the place of origin of the verbal action. Accordingly, the ablative is principally featured when a locatum moves, or is moved, away from a relatum. To this

289

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

central meaning may be traced the ablative functions relating to origin, which refers to a spatial idea, relating to separation, which is accompanied by a movement away, relating to comparisons, in which the ablative is used to indicate the object in relation to which a compared object differs. In Greek, the ablative was subsumed within the genitive. Examples: a) Ablative of place of origin: Cato, De agricultura 5 primus cubitu surgat “he gets up out of bed first”; Plautus, Trinummus 805 cunctos exturba aedibus “drive all from the house”; O 655 neōn mèn ekhṓrēsan “they retreated from the ships”; E 456 ouk án dḕ tónd’ ándra mákhēs erúsaio “could you not push this man from the fight?; RV 7, 18, 10 īyúr gvo ná yávasād ágopāḥ “they went like cows from the field without a herdsman”; RV 7, 5, 6 tváṃ dásyūmr ókasa agna ājaḥ “you, oh Agni, drive the Dasyus from their homeland”. b) Ablativus originis: Plautus, Captivi 277 quo de genere natust “from which family he originates”; RV 1, 123, 9 śukr kṛṣṇd ajaniṣṭa “the shining one was born from the darkness”; RV 10, 72, 3, ásataḥ sád ajāyata “from the non-being came the being forth”. c) Ablativus separativus: z 192 oút’ oún esthētos deuḗseai “and you will not lack in clothing”; S 126 mēdé m’ éruke mákhēs “do not hold me back from battle”. d) Ablativus comparationis: Plautus, Poenulus 812 levior pluma est gratia “thanks is lighter than a feather”; D 400 eío khérēa mákhē “worse than he in battle”; S 109 polú glukíōn mélitos “much sweeter than honey”; RV 1, 114, 6 svādóḥ svdīyo “sweeter than sweets”; RV 10, 176, 4 sáhasaś cid sáhīyān “stronger even than the strong”. GENITIVE In its partitive root meaning the Genitive expresses that a part is meant of the noun in the genitive case. Originally, the genitive relates only to the contents of the lexeme, a noun featuring the genitive ending. Various functions have developed from this root meaning, including indications of composition, possession and relation. According to G. Serbat (1986), “(…) the sense is asserted of a certain, limited quantity, which is of a smaller scale than the term indicated by the stem. … In other words, the ending only affects the word stem. At the same time, the ending plays no syntactical role (…) As a result, this partitive form may not be classified among the syntactically significant Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax

characteristics, but rather among the forms that have no syntactical value, the quantitative forms… singular, dual, and plural”. The genitive may often replace other cases without expressing their meaning; it lends an additional partitive meaning to the meaning that the expected case would have brought. According to Scherer, three realms of use may be distinguished for the genitive, namely: the indication of possession, quality, and relation. The genitive is also used in comparisons to indicate that with which something is compared. Examples: a) Partitive: Plautus, Casina 538 modius…salis “a scoop of salt”; I 102 lōtoïo phagṓn “eating of lotus”; Th 470 ēous “in the morning”. b) Genitivus qualitatis: Cato, De agricultura 121 lauri folia “leaves of the laurel”; ph 7 kṓpē d’ eléphantos epēen “a handle of ivory was on it”. c) Genitivus possessivus: Plautus, Mostellaria 980 patris amicus “the father’s friend”; Sophocles, Aias mastigophoros 172 Diós Ártemis “Artemis (daughter) of Zeus” Ph 109 patrós d’eím’ ágathoïo “and I am (the son) of a noble father”. d) Genitivus relationis: Terence, Phormio 954 monstri … simile “similar to a miracle”; Ps 485 ḕ trípodos peridṓmethon ēè lébētos “both of us are betting a tripod and a basin”; A 512 ḗpsato goúnōn “she touched the knee”. LOCATIVE By expressing that the verbal action takes place in spatial relation to the object that is indicated by the referent, the locative serves primarily to situate the verbal action spatially, and secondarily to situate the verbal action temporally. The extent to which the idea of space is expressed is also dependent upon the lexical meaning of the noun. If the noun indicates something that has spatial extent – which may include concrete as well as abstract nouns –, the spatial idea may thus be quite evident. However, when the noun indicates, e.g. a unit of time, the use of the locative only reveals the original spatial metaphor that underlies the concept of a temporal relation, at the same time without requiring that the metaphor predominates. In addition, the spatial idea may be carried over to the most various circumstances. Thus, the realm of use of the locative includes local, temporal, and modal expressions. The local meaning of the locative is not limited 291

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

to a certain part of the object, but rather may just as well pertain to its interior, exterior, or environment. This is sometimes dependent on the object that is designated and its form. Depending in turn on the nature of the verbal action, the locative may have the function of indicating the goal of a movement that is coming to completion. In Latin, the locative was subsumed within the ablative. There exist only miscellaneous inherited locative forms, such as domi “at home” and ruri “in the countryside”. In Greek, the locative was subsumed in the dative. Examples: a) Locative of place: Plautus, Amphitruo 568 homo idem duobus locis ut simul sit “that the same man should be in two places at the same time”; D 166 aithéri naíōn “living in the heavens”; d 844 ésti dé tis nēsos méssē alí “there is an island in the middle of the sea”; N 179 óreos koruphē “on the peak of the mountain”; G 10 eút’ óreos koruphēsi Nótos katékheuen omíkhlēn “as when the sough wind pours fog down from the mountain top”; RV 7, 68, 7 mádhye … samudré “in the middle of the sea”; RV 9, 18, 4  yó víśvāni vryā vásūni hástayor dadhé “who holds all treasures that one could desire to have in his own hands”; RV 1, 32, 2 áhann áhim párvate śiśriyāṇám “he smote the dragon that had occupied the mountain”; RV 5, 36, 2 párvatasya pṛṣṭhé “on the back of the mountain”; RV 3, 23, 4 sárasvatyāṃ revád agne didīhi “shine beautifully on the Sarasvati oh Agni”; RV 7, 18, 18 tásmin ní jahi vájram “Strike him with the cudgel!”. b) Locativus temporalis: Plautus Amphitruo 568 tempore uno “at one time”; B 468 ṓrē “in the spring”; G 189 ḗmati tō “on this day”; RV 3, 4, 2 yáṃ devsas trír áhann āyájante “whom the gods summon three times a day”. c) Locativus conditionis: RV 3, 56, 8 vidáthe santu devḥ “the gods should be present at the sacrifice”; RV 6, 52, 17 víśve devā havísi mādayadhvam “all of you gods amuse yourselves at the pouring of libations”. LOCAL CASES AND LOCAL PARTICLES; CASE, ADVERB AND ADPOSITION 1. The Proto-Indo-European cases with local meaning are the locative, accusative, and the ablative. These cases designate a general spatial relationship between two objects, which include places (which are concrete objects) and actions (in which concrete persons or objects participate). The locative simply organizes spatially. With the accusative and

Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax

the ablative, the concept of direction enters into play, with each indicating an opposing direction: The accusative indicates that the verbal action is oriented toward the object referent; the ablative indicates that the verbal action is oriented away from the object referent. These local dimensions then serve – in a process of transfer that is itself the result of cognitive reflection – equally to describe temporal relations and other circumstances. Because in the case of local cases the spatial relation of intransitive verbs exists between the locatum (indicated by the nominative subject) and the relatum, while in the case of transitive verbs it exists between the locatum (indicated by the accusative object) and the relatum, one may also observe, in comparing such a means of designating spatial relations with the designation of subject and object in ergative languages, an ergative trait (Lehmann, 1983). 2. Adpositions, like adverbs, modify their referents semantically; indeed, while the adposition features the characteristic of government, the adverb does not: While the adposition is distinguished by the additional characteristic of government, this syntactical connection to the referent is missing in the case of the adverb, which is why the semantic connection through modification comes to the fore. The adverbs in IE languages that correspond to adpositions are positioned following their referents (Benfey 1880). 9.2.2.2. NUMBER The dimension ‘number’ in Proto-Indo-European includes three categories: singular, dual, and plural. Number is a verbal as well as a nominal dimension: Thus, the finite verb of the predicate corresponds in number with the nominative form of the subject. In the case of the noun, the singular indicates that a single unit of that which is indicated by the nominal lexeme is concerned, whereby the nominal lexeme may either indicate a single unit from a group (singulative), or a collectivity (collective). The dual number indicates duality, and the plural, plurality. The Late Proto-Indo-European nominal category ‘dual’ may be traced to an Early Proto-Indo-European lexical category which could be found in terms for body parts that exist in pairs. R. Lühr (2000) tries to explain the connection of dual forms with singular or plural forms (incongruence) by citing the difference among individual word categories in referentiality, which is greatest in the case of substantives and smallest in the case of verbs. 293

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

9.2.2.3. GENDER Proto-Indo-European includes three categories within the dimension ‘gender’: masculine, feminine, and neuter. However, since the gender of the substantive need not correspond to the sex of that which it indicates, this terminology, taken from the grammarians of antiquity, does not adequately describe the contents of the categories. Masculine substantives need not refer to masculine subjects, just as feminine substantives need not refer to feminine subjects. i. While internal reconstruction enables one to trace the three gender system (masculine/feminine/neuter) back to a two gender system (common/neuter), the attribution in terms of meaning is not clear at this early stage. Various underlying principles of distribution are conceivable: animate vs. inanimate, agent vs. non-agent, with subject marking vs. without subject marking. The breadth of the spectrum from lexical to grammatical content becomes clear. NOTE. The classification of an earlier PIE language phase that is internally reconstructed as an ergative language or an active language is linked with the question of gender in connection with, as the case may be, the existing (masculine/feminine), or missing (neuter) characteristics of the nominative.

9.3. SENTENCE MODIFIERS 9.3.1. INTONATION PATTERNS The sentence was characterized in PIE by patterns of Order and by Selection.

A. Selection classes were determined in part by inflection, in part by lexical categories, most of which were covert.

NOTE. Some lexical categories were characterized at least in part by formal features, such as abstract nouns marked by -ti-, nouns in the religious sphere marked by -u- and collectives marked by *-h.

B. In addition to characterization by means of order and categories of selection, the sentence was also delimited by Intonation based on variations in pitch.

Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax

To the extent that the pitch phonemes of PIE have been determined, a high pitch may be posited, which could stand on one syllable per word, and a low pitch, which was not so restricted. NOTE. The location of the high pitch is determined by Lehmann primarily from the evidence in Vedic; the theory that this was inherited from PIE received important corroboration from Karl Verner’s demonstration of its maintenance into Germanic (1875). Thus the often cited correlation between the position of the accent in the Vedic perfect and the differing consonants in Germanic provided decisive evidence for reconstruction of the PIE pitch accent as well as for Verner’s law, as in the perfect (preterite) forms of the root deik-, show.

Words were characterized on one syllable by a high pitch accent, unless they were enclitic, that is, unmarked for accent. Accented words could lose their high pitch accent if they were placed at specific positions in sentences. A. Vocatives lost their accent if they were medial in a sentence or clause; and finite verbs lost their accent unless they stood initially in an independent clause or in any position in a dependent clause in Vedic. These same rules may be assumed for PIE. On the basis of the two characteristic patterns of loss of accent for verbs, characteristic patterns of intonation may also be posited for the IE sentence. Judging on the basis of loss of high pitch accent of verbs in them, independent clauses were characterized by final dropping in pitch. For in unmarked order the verb stands finally in the clause. Clauses, however, which are marked either to convey emphasis or to indicate subordination, do not undergo such lowering. They may be distinguished with final NOTE. The intonation pattern indicated by apparently conveyed the notion of an emotional or emphatic utterance or one requiring supplementation, as by another clause. These conclusions are supported by the patterns found in Germanic alliterative verse. For, as is well known, verbs were frequently placed by poets in the fourth, nonalliterating, metrically prominent position in the line: þeodcyninga þrym gefrūnon , of-people’s-kings glory we-heard-of, ‘We heard of the glory of the

295

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN kings of the people’. This placing of verbs, retained by metrical convention in Germanic verse, presumably maintains evidence for the IE intonation pattern. For, by contrast, verbs could alliterate when they stood initially in clauses or in subordinate clauses; egsode eorlas, syððan ǣrest wearð, he-terrified men since first he-was, ‘He terrified men from the time he first was [found]’. þenden wordum wēold wine Scyldinga, as-long-as with-words he-ruled the-friend ofthe-Scyldings. The patterns of alliteration in the oldest Germanic verse accordingly support the conclusions that have been derived from Vedic accentuation regarding the intonation of the IndoEuropean sentence, as do patterns in other dialects. Among such patterns is the preference for enclitics in second position in the sentence (Wackernagel 1892). Words found in this position are particles, pronouns, and verbs, which have no accent in Vedic texts. This observation of Wackernagel supports the conclusion that the intonation of the sentence was characterized by initial high pitch, with the voice trailing off at the end. For the enclitic elements were not placed initially, but rather they occupied positions in which unaccented portions of words were expected, as in Skr. prāvep mā bṛható mādayanti, ‘The dangling ones of the lofty tree gladden me’. The pronoun mā ‘me’, like other such enclitics, makes up a phrase with the initial word; in this way it is comparable to unaccented syllables of individual words, as in Skr. pravātej íriṇe várvṛtānāḥ, ‘[born] in a windy place, rolling on the dice-board’

A simple sentence then consisted not only of a unit accompanied by an intonation pattern, but also of subunits or phrases. These were identified by their accent and also by patterns of permitted finals.

9.3.2. SENTENCE DELIMITING PARTICLES The particles concerned are PIE nu, so, to, all of them introductory particles. NOTE. Their homonymity with the adverb nu, nun and the anaphoric pronoun was one of the reasons earlier Indo-Europeanists failed to recognize them and their function. Yet Delbrück had already noted the clause-introducing function of Skr. sa (1888), as in Skr. tásya tni śīrṣṇi prá cicheda. sá yát somapnam sa tátaḥ kapíñjalaḥ sám abhavat, ‘He struck off his heads. From the one that drank soma, the hazel-hen was created’. Delbrück identified sa in this and other sentences as a particle and not a pronoun, for it did not agree in gender with a noun in the sentence. But it remained for Hittite to clarify the situation. In Hittite texts the introductory use of the particles is unmistakable (J.Friedrich 1960); ta and šu occur primarily in the early texts, nu in the later, as illustrated in the following Old Hittite example (Otten and Souček 1969): GAD-an pešiemi šu- uš LÚ-aš natta aušzi ‘I throw a cloth over it and no one will see them’.

Besides such an introductory function (here as often elsewhere translated ‘and’), these particles were used as first element in a chain of enclitics, as in n-at-ši ‘and it to-him’, numu-za-kan ‘and to-me self within’ and so on. NOTE 1. In Homeric Greek such strings of particles follow different orders, but reflect the IE construction, as in: oudé nu soí per entrépetai phílon êtor, Olúmpie, ‘But your heart doesn’t notice, Zeus’. As the translation of per here indicates, some particles were used to indicate the relationships between clauses marking the simple sentence. NOTE 2. Many simple sentences in PIE would then be similar to those in Hittite and Vedic Sanskrit, such as those in the charming story taken by Delbrück from the Śatapathabrāhmaṇa. Among the simplest is Skr. tám índro didveṣa, ‘Indra hated him’. Presumably tam is a conflated form of the particle ta and the enclitic accusative singular pronoun; the combination is attested in Hittite as ta-an (J. Friedrich 1960). Besides the use of sentence-delimiting particles, these examples illustrate the simplicity of PIE sentences. Of the fifteen sentences in the story, only two have more than one nominal form per verb, and these are adverbial as observed above. Similar examples from the other early dialects could be cited, such as the Italic inscription of Praeneste, or the Germanic Gallehus inscription: Ek HlewagastiR HoltijaR horna tawido, ‘I, Hlewagastir of Holt, made the horn’. In these late texts, the subject was mandatory, and accordingly two nominal forms had come to be standard for the sentence. If however the subject is not taken into consideration, many sentences contained only one nominal element with verbs, in the early dialects as well as in PIE.

9.4. VERBAL MODIFIERS 9.4.1. DECLARATIVE SENTENCES The Injunctive has long been identified as a form unmarked for mood and marked only for stem and person. It may thus be compared with the simplest form of OV languages. By contrast the Present indicative indicates “mood”. We associate this additional feature with the suffix -i, and assume for it declarative meaning. NOTE 1. Yet it is also clear that, by the time of Vedic Sanskrit and, we assume, Late PIE, the injunctive no longer contrasted directly with the present indicative. We must therefore conclude that the declarative qualifier was expressed by other means in the sentence. We assume that the means of expression was an intonation pattern. For, in normal unmarked simple sentences, finite unaccented verbs stood finally in their clause, as did the predicative elements of nominal sentences; Delbrück’s repeatedly used example may be cited once again to illustrate the typical pattern: víśaḥ kṣatríyāya balíṃ haranti, ‘The villagers pay tribute to the prince’. Since the verb

297

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN haranti was unaccented, i.e., had no high pitch, we may posit for the normal sentence an intonation pattern in which the final elements in the sentence were accompanied by low pitch. NOTE 2. Lehmann supports this assumption by noting that a distinctive suprasegmental was used in Vedic to distinguish a contrasting feature, interrogation or request (Wackernagel 1896). This marker, called pluti by native grammarians, consisted of extra length, as in ágnā3i ‘O fire’ (3 indicates extra length). But a more direct contrast with the intonation of simple sentences may be exemplified by the accentuation of subordinate clauses. These have accented verbs, as in the following line from the Rigveda: antáś ca prgā áditir bhavāsi , ‘If you have entered inside, you will be Aditi’. As the pitch accent on ágā indicates, verbs in subordinate clauses maintained high pitch, in contrast with verbs of independent clauses like bhavāsi. We may conclude that this high pitch was an element in an intonation pattern which indicated incompleteness, somewhat like the pattern of contemporary English.

Evidence from other dialects supports the conclusion that, in late PIE, Declarative sentences were indicated by means of an intonation pattern with a drop in accentuation at the end of the clause. NOTE. In Germanic verse, verbs of unmarked declarative sentences tend to occupy unaccented positions in the line, notably the final position (Lehmann 1956). Although the surface expression of accentuation patterns in Germanic is stress, rather than the pitch of Vedic and PIE, the coincidence of accentuation pattern supports our conclusions concerning PIE intonation.

9.4.2. INTERROGATIVE SENTENCES The Interrogation was apparently also indicated by means of Intonation, for some questions in our early texts have no surface segmental indication distinguishing them from statements, for example, Plautus Aulularia 213, aetatem meam scis, ‘Do you know my age?’ NOTE. Only the context indicates to us that this utterance was a question; we may assume that the spoken form included means of expressing Int., and in view of expressions in the later dialects we can only conclude that these means were an intonation pattern.

Questions are generally classified into two groups:

A. Those framed to obtain clarification (Verdeutlichungsfragen), and B. Those framed to obtain confirmation (Bestätigungsfragen). This feature accompanies statements in which a speaker sets out to elicit information from the hearer.

Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax NOTE. It may be indicated by an intonation pattern, as noted above, or by an affix or a particle, or by characteristic patterns of order, as in German Ist er da? ‘Is he here?’ When the Interrogative sentence is so expressed, the surface marker commonly occupies second position among the question elements, if the entire clause is questioned. Such means of expression for Int. are found in IE languages, as Lat. -ne, which, according to Minton Warren “occurs about 1100 times in Plautus and over 40 times in Terence” (1881). Besides expressions like Lat. egone ‘Me?’, sentences like the following occur (Plautus Asinaria 884): Aúdin quid ait? Artemona: Aúdio. ‘Did you hear what he is saying? Artemona: yes’ Other evidence for a postponed particle for expressing Int. is found in Avestan, in which -na is suffixed to some interrogatives, as in Av. kas-nā ‘who (then)?’; and in Germanic, where na is found finally in some questions in Old High German. Old Church Slavic is more consistent in the use of such a particle than are these dialects, as in chošteši li ‘Do you wish to?’ This particle is also used in contemporary Russian.

The particle used to express Interrogation in Latin, Avestan, and Germanic is homophonous with the particle for expressing negation, PIE ne. NOTE. It is not unlikely that PIE ne of questions is the same particle as that used for the negative. As the interrogative particle, however, it has been lost in most dialects. After Lehmann (1974), its loss is one of the indications that late PIE was not a consistent OV language. After Mendoza, the fact that such Interrogatives of a yes/no-answer are introduced by different particles in the oldest attested dialects means that no single particle was generalized by Late PIE; cf. Goth. u, Lat. -ne, nonne, num Gk. ἣ, νὐ , Skr. nu, Sla. li. However, the common findings of Hittite, IndoIranian, Germanic and Latin are similar if not the same. In any case, for most linguists, rather than a postposed particle, 1) Intonation was used to express the Interrogatives, as well as 2) Particles that were placed early in clauses, often initially.

The partial Interrogative sentences are those which expect an aclaratory answer; they are introduced in PIE by pronominal or adverbial forms derived from interrogative qi/qo-, always placed initially but for marked sentences, where a change in position is admitted to emphasize it. NOTE. In some languages, Interrogatives may be strengthened by the addition of posposed particles with interrogative sense, as in Av. kaš-na. Such forms introduce indirect interrogatives when they ask about a part of the sentence. Indirect interrogatives in the form of Total interrogatives (i.e., not of yes/no-answer) are introduces by particles derived from direct interrogative particles (when there are) or by conditional conjunctions; as Hitt. man.

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

9.4.3. NEGATIVE SENTENCES Indications of Negation, by which the speaker negates the verbal means of expression, commonly occupies third position in the hierarchy of sentence elements. We can only posit the particles ne and mē, neither of which is normally postposed after verbs. NOTE 1. For prohibitive particle mē, compare Gk. μή, O.Ind.,Av.,O.Pers. mā, Toch. mar/mā, Arm. mi, Alb. mos. In other IE dialects it was substituted by nē, cf. Goth. ne, Lat. nē (also as modal negation), Ira. ni. It is not clear whether Hitt. lē is ultimately derived from mē or nē. PIE ne is found as Goth.,O.H.G. ni, Lat. nĕ- (e.g. in nequis) O.Ind. ná, O.Sla. ne, etc. Sometimes it is found in lengthened or strengthened forms as Hitt. natta, Lat. non, Skr. ned, etc. A common PIE lengthened form is nei, which appears in Lat. ni, Lith. neî, Sla. ni, etc., and which may also ultimately be related to Proto-Uralic negative *ei- (Kortlandt, v.s.). NOTE 2. In the oldest languages, negation seems to have been preverbal; Vedic nákis, Gk. oú tis, mḗ tis, Lat. nēmo, OHG nioman ‘no one’, and so on. The negative element ne was not used in compounding in PIE (Brugmann 1904); ṇ- had this function. Moreover, there is evidence for proposing that other particles were placed postverbally in PIE (Delbrück 1897). Delbrück has classified these in a special group, which he labels particles. They have been maintained postpositively primarily in frozen expressions: ē in Gk. egṓnē, ge in égōge ‘I’ (Schwyzer 1939). But they are also frequent in Vedic and early Greek; Delbrück (1897) discusses at length the use of Skt. gha, Gk. ge, and Skt. sma, Gk. mén, after pronouns, nouns, particles, and verbs, cf. Lat. nōlo < ne volo, Goth. nist< ni ist, and also, negative forms of the indefinite pronoun as O.Ind. m-kis, nákis, Lat. ne-quis, etc. which may indicate an old initial absolute position, which could be also supported by the development of correlative forms like Lat. neque, etc., which combine negation and coordination. Lehmann, on the contrary, believes in an older postposed order, characteristic of OV languages (i.e. a situation in IE II), because of the usually attributed value of emphasis to the initial position of negation, postverbal negation examples (even absolute final position in Hittite and Greek), the old existence of the form nei, as well as innovative forms like Lat. ne-quis or Gk. oú-tis. NOTE 3. In Modern Indo-European, thus, negation should usually be preverbal, as in modern Romance languages (cf. Fr. n’est, Spa. no es, etc.), but it can be postponed in emphatic contexts, as it is usual in modern Germanic languages (cf. Eng. is not, Ger. ist nicht, etc.), as well as in very formal texts, thus imitating some of the most archaic findings of early PIE dialects.

9.5. NOMINAL MODIFIERS 9.5.1. ADJECTIVE AND GENITIVE CONSTRUCTIONS 1. Proto-Indo-European Attributive Adjectives were normally preposed. NOTE. Delbrück summarizes the findings for Vedic, Greek, Latin, Lithuanian, and Germanic, giving examples like the following from Vedic: śvetḥ párvatāḥ, ‘white mountains’ (1900). Lehmann (1974) adds an example of Hitt. šuppi watar, ‘pure water’.

In marked constructions Adjectives might be postposed, as in áśvaḥ śvetáḥ, ‘a white horse, a gray’. 2. The position of the Attributive Genitive is the same as that of the Attributive Adjective. NOTE. A striking example is given from the Old English legal language (Delbrück 1900): ōðres mannes hūses dura, ‘the door of the house of the other man’.

Like the adjective construction, the attributive-genitive construction may have the modifier postposed for marked effect, as is sómasya in SB 3.9.4.15 (Delbrück 1878): kíṃ nas tátaḥ syād íti? prathamabhakṣsá evá sómasyar jña íti, ‘What might then happen for us?’ ‘The first enjoyment of [Prince] Soma’. NOTE 1. The relatively frequent marked use of the genitive may be the cause for the apparently free position of the genitive in Greek and Latin. The ambivalent order may also have resulted from the change of these languages toward a VO order. But, as Delbrück indicates, the preposed order is well attested in the majority of dialects. This order is also characteristic of Hittite (J. Friedrich 1960). We may therefore assume it for PIE. NOTE 2. In accordance with Lehmann’s views on syntactic structure, the attributive genitive, like the attributive adjective, must be derived from an embedded sentence. The sentence would have a noun phrase equivalent with that in the matrix sentence and would be a predicate nominal sentence. Such independent sentences are attested in the older dialects. Delbrück gives a number of examples, among them: aṣṭaú ha vaí putr ádites, ‘Aditi had eight sons’. áhar devnām sīt, ‘Day belonged to the gods’. These sentences accordingly illustrate that the genitive was used in predicate nominative sentences to convey what Calvert Watkins has labeled its primary syntactic function: the sense “of belonging”. When such a sentence was embedded in another with an equivalent NP, the NP was deleted, and the typical genitive construction resulted. Hittite also uses

301

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN s as a genitive as well as a nominative marker. For “genitives” like haššannaššaš ‘(one) of his race’ can be further inflected, as in the accusative haššannaš-šan ‘(to one) of his race’ (J. Friedrich).

9.5.2. COMPOUNDS 1. In the derivation of compounds special compounding rules apply. The verbal compounds in a language observe the basic order patterns, For PIE we would expect an older OV order in compounds, as e.g. Skt. agnídh- ‘priest’ < agni ‘fire’ + idh ‘kindle.’ NOTE. A direct relationship between compounds and basic syntactic patterns is found only when the compounds are primary and productive. After a specific type of compound becomes established in a language, further compounds may be constructed on the basis of analogy, for example Gk. híppagros ‘wild horse’, in contrast with the standard productive Greek compounds in which the adjectival element precedes the modified, as in agriókhoiros ‘wild swine’ (Risch 19441949). Here we will consider the primary and productive kinds of compounds in PIE.

2. Two large classes and other minor types are found: A. the Synthetics (noun+noun), which make up the majority of the PIE compounds, a. Pure Synthetics, i.e. noun+noun. b. Sinthetics in which the first element is adverbial, i.e. adverb+noun. B. The Bahuvrihis. C. Adjective + Nouns, apparently not so productive in PIE as in its dialects. D. A small number of additive compounds. SYNTHETICS Synthetics consist of a nominal element preceding a verbal, in their unmarked forms, as in Skt. agnídh-, ‘priest’. As in this compound, the relation of the nominal element to the verbal is that of target. The particular relationship of nominal and verbal elements was determined by the lexical properties of the verb; accordingly, the primary relationship for most PIE verbs was that of target. But other nominal categories could also be used with verbs. 3. Kinds of Relationships: 1) The Receptor relationship, as Skr. devahéḍana, ‘angering the gods’. Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax

2) The Instrument or Means relationship; as Skr. ádrijūta, ‘speeded by the stones’, The compound ṛtajā of this passage may illustrate the Time relationship. 3) The Source relationship, as Skr. aṅhomúc, ‘freeing from trouble’. 4) The Place relationship, as Skr. druṣád, ‘sitting in a tree’. 5) The Manner relationship; as, Skr. īśānakŕt, ‘acting like a ruler’. These compounds exhibit the various relationships of nominal constituents with verbal elements, as in Skr. tv-datta, ‘given by you’. NOTE. Synthetics attested in the Rigveda accordingly illustrate all the nominal relationships determinable from sentences. Synthetics are frequently comparable to relative constructions, as in the following sentence: gnír agāmi bhrato vṛtrah purucétaṇaḥ, ‘Agni, the god of the Bharatas, was approached, he who killed Vṛtra, who is seen by many’.

Besides the large number of synthetics of the NV pattern, others are attested with the pattern VN. These are largely names and epithets, such as púṣṭi-gu, a name meaning ‘one who raises cattle’ (RV 8.51.1.), and sanád-rayi ‘dispensing riches’. BAHUVRIHIS The second large group of PIE compounds, Bahuvrihis, are derived in accordance with the sentence pattern expressing Possession. This pattern is well known from the Latin mihi est construction (Bennett 1914; Brugmann 1911): nulli est homini perpetuom bonum, “No man has perpetual blessings”. Lehmann accounts for the derivation of bahuvrihis, like Lat. magnanimus ‘greathearted’, by assuming that an equational sentence with a noun phrase as subject and a noun in the receptor category indicating possession is embedded with an equivalent noun, as in the following example (‘great spirit is to man’ = ‘the man has great spirit’): On deletion of the equivalent NP (homini) in the embedded sentence, a bahuvrihi compound magnanimus ‘greathearted’ is generated. This pattern of compounding ceased to be primary and productive when the dialects developed verbal patterns for expressing possession, such as Lat. habeo ‘I have’.

303

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

Bahuvrihis may be adjectival in use, or nominal, as in the vocative use of sūnari ‘having good strength’ (made up of su ‘good’ and *xner- ‘(magical) strength’) in Slr. víśvasya hí prṇanaṃ jvanaṁ tvé, ví yid uchási sūnari, ‘For the breath and life of everything is in you, when you light up the skies, you who have good strength’. The Greek cognate may illustrate the adjectival use: phéron d’ euḗnora khalkón ‘They carried on board the bronze of good strength’. The bahuvrihis are accordingly similar to synthetics in being comparable to relative clauses. NOTE. Although the bahuvrihis were no longer primary and productive in the later dialects, their pattern remained remarkably persistent, as we may note from the various philo- compounds in Greek, such as philósophos, ‘one who holds wisdom dear’, phíloinos, ‘one who likes wine’, and many more. Apart from the loss of the underlying syntactic pattern, the introduction of different accentual patterns removed the basis for bahuvrihis. As Risch pointed out, Greek eupátōr could either be a bahuvrihi ‘having a good father’ or a tatpurusha ‘a noble father’. In the period before the position of the accent was determined by the quantity of final syllables, the bahuvrihi would have had the accent on the prior syllable, like rja-putra ‘having kings as sons’, RV 2.27.7, in contrast with the tatpurusha rja-putrá ‘king’s son’, RV 10.40.3. The bahuvrihis in time, then, were far less frequent than tatpurushas, of which only a few are to be posited for late PIE. An example is Gk. propátōr ‘forefather’. If the disputed etymology of Latin proprius ‘own’ is accepted, *pro-pətrjós ‘from the forefathers’, there is evidence for assuming a PIE etymon; Wackernagel (1905) derives Sanskrit compounds like prá-pada ‘tip of foot’ from PIE. Yet the small number of such compounds in the early dialects indicates that they were formed in the late stage of PIE (Risch). NOTE 2. Dvandvas, such as índrāviṣ ́ṇu and a few other patterns, like the teens, were not highly productive in PIE, if they are to be assumed at all. Their lack of productiveness may reflect poorly developed coordination constructions in PIE (Lehmann 1969). Besides the expansion of tatpurushas and dvandvas in the dialects, we must note also the use of expanded root forms. Thematic forms of noun stems and derived forms of verbal roots are used, as in Skt. deva-kṛta, ‘made by the gods’. Such extended constituents become more and more prominent and eventually are characteristic elements of compounds, as the connecting vowel -o- in Greek and in early Germanic; Gk. Apolló-dōros ‘gift of Apollo’ (an n- stem) and Goth. guma-kunds ‘of male sex’ (also an n- stem). Yet the relationships between the constituents remain unchanged by such morphological innovations. The large number of tatpurushas in the dialects reflects the prominence of embedded-modifier constructions, as the earlier synthetics and bahuvrihis reflected the embedding of sentences, often to empty noun nodes. As noted above, they

Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax accordingly have given us valuable information about PIE sentence types and their internal relationships.

9.5.3. DETERMINERS IN NOMINAL PHRASES Nouns are generally unaccompanied by modifiers, as characteristic passages from an Archaic hymn of the Rigveda and from an Old Hittite text may indicate. Demonstratives are infrequent; nouns which might be considered definite have no accompanying determinative marker unless they are to be stressed. The Demonstrative then precedes. The relationship between such Demonstratives and accompanying Nouns has been assumed to be Appositional; it may be preferable to label the relationship a loose one, as of pronoun or noun plus noun, rather than adjective or article plus noun. NOTE. In Homer too the “article” is generally an anaphoric pronoun, differing from demonstratives by its lack of deictic meaning referring to location (Munro). Nominal phrases as found in Classical Greek or in later dialects are subsequent developments; the relationship between syntactic elements related by congruence, such as adjectives, or even by case, such as genitives, can often be taken as similar to an appositional relationship (Meillet 1937). To illustrate nominal phrases, cf. Vedic eṣām marútām , “of-them of-Maruts”. The nominal phrase which may seem to consist of a demonstrative preceding a noun, eṣām marútām, is divided by the end of the line; accordingly eṣām must be interpreted as pronominal rather than adjectival. The following Hittite passage from a ritual illustrates a similar asyndetic relationship between the elements of nominal phrases (Otten and Souček 1969): harkanzi- ma –an dHantašepeš anduhšaš harša[(r)] –a

gišŠUKURhi.a

, But the Hantašepa-gods hold heads of men as well as

lances. In this sentence the nouns for ‘heads’ and ‘lances’ supplement ‘it’. Moreover, while the meaning of the last word is uncertain, its relationship to the preceding elements is imprecise, for it is a nominative plural, not an accusative. Virtually any line of Homer might be cited to illustrate the absence of close relationships between the members of nominal phrases; cf. Odyssey nēȗs dé moi hḗd’ héstēken ep’ agroȗ nósphi pólēos, en liméni Rheíthrōi hupò Nēíōi hul ḗenti, ‘My ship is

berthed yonder in the country away from the city, in a harbor called Rheithron below Neion, which is wooded’. The nouns have no determiners even when, like nēus, they are definite; and the modifiers with liméni and Neíoi seem to be loosely related epithets rather than closely linked descriptive adjectives.

305

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

The conclusions about the lack of closely related nominal phrases may be supported by the status of compounds in PIE. The compounds consisting of Descriptive Adjectives + Noun are later; the most productive are reduced verbal rather than nominal constructions. And the bahuvrihis, which indicate a descriptive relationship between the first element and the second, support the conclusion that the relationship is relatively general; rājá-putra, for example, means ‘having sons who are kings’ rather than ‘having royal sons’; gó-vapus means ‘having a shape like a cow’, said of rainclouds, for which the epithet denotes the fructifying quality rather than the physical shape. Accordingly, closely related nominal expressions are to be assumed only for the dialects, not for PIE. Definiteness was not indicated for nouns. The primary relationship between nominal elements, whether nouns or adjectives, was appositional. The syntactic patterns assumed for late PIE may be illustrated by narrative passages from the early dialects. The following passage tells of King Hariśchandra, who has been childless but has a son after promising Varuna that he will sacrifice any son to him. After the birth of the son, however, the king asks Varuna to put off the time of the sacrifice, until finally the son escapes to the forest; a few lines suffice to illustrate the simple syntactic patterns.

307

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

“Fine,” he said. He now became ten.

As this passage illustrates, nouns have few modifiers. Even the sequence: tasya ha putro, which might be interpreted as a nominal phrase corresponding to ‘his son’, consists of distinct components, and these should be taken as meaning: “Of him a son [was born]”. As in the poetic passage cited above, nouns and pronouns are individual items in the sentence and when accompanied by modifiers have only a loose relationship with them, as to epithets.

9.5.4. APPOSITION Apposition is traditionally “when paratactically joined forms are grammatically, but not in meaning, equivalent”. NOTE. Because of the relationship between nouns and modifiers, and also because subjects of verbs were only explicit expressions for the subjective elements in verb forms, Meillet (1937) considered apposition a basic characteristic of Indo-European syntax. As in the previous passage, subjects were included only when a specific meaning was to be expressed, such as putra ‘son’. The element sa may still be taken as an introductory particle, a sentence connective, much as iti of tathā iti, etc., is a sentence-final particle. And the only contiguous nouns in the same case, varunam rājānam, are clearly appositional.

A distinction is made between Appositional and Attributive (Delbrück); an appositional relationship between two or more words is not indicated by any formal expression, whereas an attributive relationship generally is. NOTE. Thus the relationships in the following line of the Odyssey are attributive: arnúmenos hḗn te psukhḗn kaì nóston hetaírōn , lit. “striving-for his Ptc. life and return of-companions”. The relationship between hḗn and psukhḗn is indicated by the concordance in endings; that between nóston and hetaírōn by the genitive. On the other hand the relationship between the two vocatives in the following line is appositional, because there is no mark indicating the relationship: tȏn

hamóthen ge, theá, thúgater Diós, eipè kaì hēmi ̑n, ‘Tell us of these things, beginning at any point you like, goddess, daughter of Zeus’. Both vocatives can be taken independently, as can any appositional elements.

Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax

Asyndetic constructions which are not appositive are frequently attested, as Skr. té vo hṛdé mánase santu yajñ, ‘These sacrifices should be in accordance with your heart, your mind’. Coordinate as well as appositive constructions could thus be without a specific coordinating marker. Comparable to appositional constructions are titles, for, like appositions, the two or more nouns involved refer to one person. NOTE. In OV languages titles are postposed in contrast with the preposing in VO languages; compare Japanese Tanaka-san with Mr. Middlefield. The title ‘king’ with Varuna and similarly in the Odyssey, Poseidáōni ánakti , when ánaks is used as a title. But, as Lehmann himself admits, even in the early texts, titles often precede names, in keeping with the change toward a VO structure.

Appositions normally follow, when nouns and noun groups are contiguous, as in the frequent descriptive epithets of Homer: Tòn d’ ēmeíbet’ épeita theá, glaukop ̑ is Athḗnē, ‘Him then answered the goddess, owl-eyed Athene’.

To indicate a marked relationship, however, they may precede (Schwyzer 1950). But the early PIE position is clear from the cognates: Skt. dyaus pitā, Gk. Zeȗ páter, Lat. Jūpiter.

9.6. MODIFIED FORMS OF PIE SIMPLE SENTENCES 9.6.1. COORDINATION

While coordination is prominent in the earliest texts, it is generally implicit. The oldest surviving texts consist largely of paratactic sentences, often with no connecting particles. New sentences may be introduced with particles, or relationships may be indicated with pronominal elements; but these are fewer than in subsequent texts. Similar patterns of paratactic sentences are found in Hittite, with no overt marker of coordination or of subordination. J. Friedrich states that “purpose and result” clauses are not found in Hittite (1960), but that coordinate sentences are simply arranged side by side with the particle nu, as in the Hittite Laws. Conditional relationships too are found in Hittite with no indication of subordination (J. Friedrich 1960).

309

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. The subordinate relationships that are indicated, however, have elements that are related to relative particles. Accordingly the subordination found in the early dialects is a type of relative construction. As such examples and these references indicate, no characteristic patterns of order, or of verb forms, distinguish subordinate from coordinate clauses in PIE and the early dialects. Hermann therefore concluded in his celebrated article that there were no subordinate clauses in PIE (1895). For Lehmann (1974), the paratactic arrangement which he assumed for PIE, however, is characteristic of OV languages. Hypotaxis in OV languages is often expressed by nonfinite verb forms and by postposed particles.

The arrangement of sentences in sequence is a typical pattern of PIE syntax, whether for hypotactic or for paratactic relationships. Expressions for coordination were used largely for elements within clauses and sentences. When used to link sentences, conjunctions were often accompanied by initial particles indicating the beginning of a new clause and also indicating a variety of possible relationships with neighboring clauses. NOTE. Sentence-connecting particles are, however, infrequent in Vedic and relatively infrequent in the earliest Hittite texts; Lehmann concludes that formal markers of sentence coordination were not mandatory in PIE.

The normal coordinating particle in most of the dialects is a reflex of PIE -qe. This is postposed to the second of two conjoined elements, or to both. NOTE. Hittite -a, -i̯a is used similarly, as in attaš annaš a ‘father and mother’ (J. Friedrich

1960).

The disjunctive particle PIE -wē is also postposed. NOTE 1. In Hittite, however, besides the postposed disjunctive particles -ku ... -ku ‘or’, there was the disjunctive particle našma, which stood between nouns rather than after the last. This pattern of conjunction placement came to be increasingly frequent in the dialects; it indicates that the conjunction patterns of VO structure have come to be typical already by IE II. NOTE 2. With the change in coordinating constructions, new particles were introduced; some of these, for example, Lat. et, Goth. jah, OE and, have a generally accepted etymology; others, like Gk. kaí, are obscure in etymology. Syntactically the shift in the construction rather than the source of the particles is of primary interest, though, as noted above, the introduction of new markers for the new VO patterns provides welcome lexical evidence of a shift. The syntactic shift also brought with it patterns of coordination reduction (Ersparung) which have been well described for some

Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax dialects (Behaghel). Such constructions are notable especially in SVO languages, in which sequences with equivalent verbs (S, V, O, Conj., S2, V1, O2) delete the second occurrence of the verb , as M.H.G. daz einer einez will und ein ander ein anderz, ‘that one one-thing wants and another an other’.

Reduction of equivalent nouns in either S or O position is also standard, as in Beowulf. NOTE. But in the paratactic structures characteristic of Hittite, such reduction is often avoided. In an SVO language the second memii̯as would probably not have been explicitly stated, as in:

‘now my speech came to be halting and was uttered slowly’. The lack of such reduction, often a characteristic of OV languages, gives an impression of paratactic syntax. Another pattern seeming to be paratactic is the preposing of “subordinate clauses,” either with no mark of subordination or with a kind of relative particle, as in the concluding passage of Muršilis Sprachlähmung (Götze and Pedersen 1934). The second from last clause has no mark to indicate subordination; the earlier clauses contain a form of relative particle. IŠTU

The interpretation of the preceding clause as a result clause is taken from Götze and

311

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN Pedersen. The initial clauses contain relative particles which indicate the relationship to kuitki of the second-from-last clause; they also contain coordinating particles: a, i̯a. In this passage the

clauses, whether coordinate or subordinate from our point of view, are simply arrayed in sequence. Each concludes with a finite verb which provides no evidence of hypotaxis. The sentence connectives which occur—repeated instances of a/ia—heighten the impression of coordination.

The absence in Hittite of verb forms – which are cognates of the Vedic and Greek optative and subjunctive – which came to be used largely to indicate subordination is highly consistent in its OV patterning, as such verb forms were not required. Hittite however did not forego another device, which is used to indicate subordinate relationship in OV as well as VO languages, the so-called nonfinite verb forms. These are used for less explicit kinds of complementation, much the way relative constructions are used for more explicit kinds.

9.6.2. COMPLEMENTATION Compound sentences may result from the embedding of nominal modifiers. NOTE. In VO languages embedded nominal modifiers follow nouns, whereas in OV languages they precede nouns. This observation has led to an understanding of the Hittite and the reconstructed PIE relative constructions. if we follow the standard assumption that in relative constructions a second sentence containing an NP equivalent to an NP in the matrix sentence is embedded in that matrix sentence, we may expect that either sentence may be modified. A sentence may also be embedded with a dummy noun; the verb forms of such embedded sentences are commonly expressed with nominal forms of the verb, variously called infinitives, supines, or participles. In OV languages these, as well as relative constructions, precede the verb of the matrix sentence.

An example with participles in the IE languages is Skr. vásānaḥ in the last lines of the following Strophic hymn: rúśad vásānaḥ sudṛśīkarūpaḥ, “brightly dressing-himself beautifully-hued”. It may also have “a final or consequential sense”, as in the following Strophic hymn: tvám indra srávitav apás kaḥ, ‘You, O Indra, make the waters to flow.’ Also in the poetic texts such infinitives may follow the main verb, as in ábodhi hótā yajáthāya devn, lit. “he-woke-up priest for-sacrificing gods”, ‘The priest has awakened to sacrifice to the gods’.

Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax NOTE. The postposed order may result from stylistic or poetic rearrangement; yet it is also a reflection of the shift to VO order, a shift which is reflected in the normal position for infinitives in the other IE dialects. In the Brahmanas still, infinitives normally stand directly before the verb, except in interrogative and negative sentences (Delbrück). On the basis of the Brahmanic order we may assume that in PIE nonfinite verbs used as complements to principal verbs preceded them in the sentence. Hittite provides examples of preposed complementary participles and infinitives to support this assumption (J. Friedrich). Participles were used particularly with har(k)- ‘have’ and eš- ‘be’, as in uerii̯an ešta ‘was mentioned’; the pattern is used to indicate state.

INFINITIVES

1. Infinitives could indicate result, with or without an object (J. Friedrich 1960): 1-aš 1an kunanna lē šanhanzi, lit. “one one to-kill not he-tries”, i.e. ‘One should not try to kill another’. 2. Infinitives could be used to express purpose, as in the following example, which pairs an infinitive with a noun (J. Friedrich): tuk-ma kī uttar ŠÀ-ta šii̯anna išhiull-a ešdu, lit. “to-you-however this word in-heart for-laying instruction-and it-should-be”, i.e. ‘But

for you this word should be for taking to heart and for instruction’.

3. The Infinitive could be loosely related to its object, as in examples cited by Friedrich, such as apāš-ma-mu harkanna šan(a)hta, lit. “he-however-me for-deteriorating hesought”, i.e. ‘But he sought to destroy me’. 4. The complementary infinitive indicates the purpose of the action; as Friedrich points out, it is attached to the verb šanhta plus its object mu in a construction quite different from that in subsequent dialects. NOTE. These uses are paralleled by uses in Vedic, as may be noted in the work of Macdonell (1916), from which some examples are taken in Lehmann (1974). On the basis of such examples in Vedic and in Hittite, he assumes that infinitive constructions were used to indicate a variety of complements in PIE.

Hittite and Sanskrit also provide examples of Participles functioning appositionally or as adjectives indicating state (J. Friedrich 1960): ammuk-u̯ar-an akkantan IQ.BI, lit. tome-Pte.-indicating-quotation-him dying he-described, i.e. ‘He told me that one had died.’

313

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN NOTE. This pattern had been noted by Delbrück for the Rigveda, with various examples (1900:327), as śiśīhí mā śiśayáṃ tvā śṛṇomi, ‘Strengthen me; I hear that you are strong.’ The adjective śiśayá ‘strengthening’ is an adjective derived from the same root as śiśīhí. Delbrück also noted that such “appositives” are indicated in Greek by means of clauses. Greek represents for Lehmann accordingly a further stage in the development of the IE languages to a VO order. Yet Greek still maintained preposed participles having the same subject as does the principal verb, as in: tḕn mèn idṑn gḗthēse, lit. “it Ptc. seeing he-rejoiced”

This pattern permits the use of two verbs with only one indicating mood and person; the nonfinite verb takes these categories from the finite. Participles were thus used in the older period for a great variety of relationships, though also without indicating some of the verbal categories. Dependent clauses are more flexible in indicating such relationships, and more precise, especially when complementary participles and infinitives follow the principal verb.

9.6.3. SUBORDINATE CLAUSES Indo-Europeanists have long recognized the relationship between the Subordinating Particles and the stem from which Relative Pronouns were derived in Indo-Iranian and Greek. NOTE. Thus Delbrück has pointed out in detail how the neuter accusative form of PIE jo- was the basis of the conjunction jod in its various meanings: (1) Temporal, (2) Temporal-Causal, (3) Temporal-Conditional, (4) Purpose. He also recognized the source of conjunctional use in sentences like Skr. yáj jyathās tád áhar asya kme ‘ṅśóḥ pīyū́ṣam apibo giriṣṭhm, ‘On the day you were born you drank the mountain milk out of desire for the plant’.

1) Relative clauses must have stood Before the Main Clause originally and 2) The earliest type of subordinate jo- clauses must have been the Preposed Relative constructions. NOTE. This conclusion from Vedic receives striking support from Hittite, for in it we find the same syntactic relationship between relative clauses and other subordinate clauses as is found in Vedic, Greek, and other early dialects. But the marker for both types of clauses differs. In Hittite it is based on IE qid rather than jod; thus, Hittite too uses the relative particle for indicating subordination. The remarkable parallelism between the syntactic constructions, though they have different surface markers, must be ascribed to typological reasons; we assume that Hittite as well

Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax as Indo-Aryan and Greek was developing a lexical marker to indicate subordination. As does yad in Vedic, Hitt. kuit signals a “loose” relationship between clauses which must be appropriately interpreted. As J. Friedrich has stated (1960), kuit never stands initially in its clause. Sentences in which it is used are then scarcely more specifically interconnected than are conjoined sentences with no specific relating word, as in examples cited by Friedrich (ibid.): nu taškupāi nu URU-aš dapii̯anzi

išdammašzi, lit. Ptc. you-shout Ptc. city whole it-hears, ‘Now cry out [so that] the whole city

hears’. Like this example, both clauses in a kuit construction generally are introduced with nu (J. Friedrich 1960). We may assume that kuit became a subordinating particle when such connections were omitted, as in Friedrich’s example. These examples illustrate that both yád and kuit introduce causal clauses, though they do not contain indications of the origin of this use.

It is therefore generally believed that Subordinates originated in Relative sentences, as Vedic, Old Irish, Avestan and Old Persian illustrate. Proverbs and maxims are a particularly conservative field in all languages, and even etymologically there are two series which especially often; namely, qo-...to-, and jo-...to-. NOTE 1. For IE qo-..to-, cf. Lat. cum...tum, qualis...talis, quam...tam, or Lith. kàs...tàs, kòks...tàs, kaîp...taîp, kíek...tíek, etc., and for jo-...to-, Ved. yás...sá tád, yáthā...táthā, yvat...tvat, Gk. oios...toios, ósos...tósos, O.Pers. haya (a compound from so+jo, with the same inverse compound as Lat. tamquam, from two correlatives), etc. NOTE 2. For Haudry this correlative structure is the base for subordination in all Indo-European languages. Proto-Indo-European would therefore show an intermediate syntax between parataxis and hypotaxis, as the correlative structure is between a ‘loose’ syntax and a ‘locked’ one.

Lehmann assumes that the use of Skr. yád, Hitt. kuit, and other relative particles to express a causal relationship arose from subordination of clauses introduced by them to an Ablative; cf. Skr. ácittī yát táva dhármā yuyopimá (lit. unknowing that, because your law, order we-have-disturbed), m nas tásmād énaso deva rīriṣaḥ (lit. not us because-of-that because-of-sin O-god you-harm), ‘Do not harm us, god, because of that sin [that] because unknowingly we have disturbed your law’. As such relationships with ablatives expressing Cause were not specific, more precise particles or conjunctions came to be used. In Sanskrit the ablatival yasmāt specifies the meaning ‘because’.

315

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

Further, yad and yátra specify the meaning ‘when’. In Hittite, mān came to be used for temporal relationships, possibly after combined use with kuit; kuitman expressed a temporal relationship even in Late Hittite, corresponding to ‘while, until’, though mahhan has replaced mān (J. Friedrich 1960 gives further details). The conjunction mān itself specifies the meanings ‘if’ and ‘although’ in standard Hittite. In both Hittite and Vedic then, the “loose” relative-construction relationship between subordinate clauses and principal clauses is gradually replaced by special conjunctions for the various types of hypotactic relationship: Causal, Temporal, Conditional, Concessive. Just as the Causal relationship developed from an Ablative modified by a Relative construction, so the Temporal and Conditional relationship developed from a clause modifying an underlying Time node. The less differentiated and less precisely related subordinate clauses are often still evident, however, as in yád clauses of the Archaic hymn, Rigveda 1.167. For conciseness, only yád clauses will be cited here, with Hoffmann’s interpretation of each; the entire stanzas and their translations are given by Hoffmann (1967). RV 1.167.5.

In these three stanzas yad introduces subordinate clauses with three different relationships: Temporal, Conditional, Causal. Such multiple uses of yad belong particularly to the archaic style; subsequently they are less frequent, being replaced by more specific conjunctions. In addition to the greater specificity of subordinate relationship indicated by particles, the early, relatively free hypotactic constructions come to be modified by the dominant subjective quality of the principal verb. The effect may be illustrated by passages like the following from a Strophic hymn, in which the verb of the principal clause is an optative: RV 1.38.4.

‘Your singer would be immortal if [= in a situation when] you Maruts were mortals.’ (That is, if our roles were reversed, and you were mortals, then you would wish me to be immortal.) This passage illustrates how the use of the Optative in the principal clause brings about a Conditional relationship in the Subordinate clause (see also Delbrück 1900). Through its expression of uncertainty the Optative conveys a Conditional rather than a Temporal meaning in the yad clause. NOTE. Lacking verb forms expressing uncertainty, Hittite indicates conditional relationships simply by means of Particles (J. Friedrich 1960). Although several particles are used in Hittite to indicate various types of conditional clauses—man ... mān for Contrary-to-Fact, takku and man for Simple Conditionals—Hittite did not develop the variety of patterns found in other dialects. These patterns, as well described in the handbooks, are brought about not only by differing particles but also by the uses of the various tense and mood forms. Constructions in the dialects which have developed farthest from those of PIE are those in which the tense, mood, or person is modified in accordance with rules based on the verb form of the principal clause. Such shifts are among the most far-reaching results of the subjective quality of the Indo-European verb (Delbrück 1900).

317

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

Differences between the constructions in the various dialects reflect the changes as well as the earlier situation. In Homer, statements may be reported with a shift of mood and person, as in: Odyssey

eípēi

he-may-say

‘You yourself ask him so that he tells the truth.’ The form eípēi is a third-person aorist subjunctive. If the statement were in direct discourse, the verb would be eȋpe, second-person imperative, and the clause would read:

̑ e nēmertéa ‘tell the truth’. Such shifts in person and mood would not be expected in eip

an OV language; in Vedic, for example, statements are repeated and indicated with a postposed iti. The shifts in the other dialects, as they changed more and more to VO structure, led to intricate expression of subordinate relationships, through shifts in person, in mood, and in tense, as well as through specific particles indicating the kind of subordination. The syntactic constructions of these dialects then came to differ considerably from that even in Vedic. The earliest poems of the Vedas are transparent in syntax, as may be illustrated by Stanzas 9 and 10 of Hymn 1.167: RV 1.167.9.

‘We today, we tomorrow, want to be called Indra’s favorites in battle. We were formerly. And great things will be for us through the days; may the chief of men give that to us’. Although the hymn offers problems of interpretation because of religious and poetic difficulties, the syntax of these two stanzas is straightforward; the verbs in general are independent of one another, in this way indicating a succession of individual sentences. Such syntactic patterns, though more complicated than those of prose passages, lack the complexity of Classical Greek and Latin, or even Homeric Greek. These early Vedic texts, like those of Old Hittite, include many of the syntactic categories found in the dialects, but the patterns of order and relationship between clauses had already changed considerably from the OV patterns of Middle PIE.

9.7. SYNTACTIC CATEGORIES 9.7.1. PARTICLES AS SYNTACTIC MEANS OF EXPRESSION Noninflected words of various functions were used in indicating relationships between other words in the sentence or between sentences. 1. Some were used for modifying Nouns, often indicating the relationships of nouns to verbs. Although these were generally placed after nouns and accordingly were

319

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

Postpositions, they have often been called Prepositions by reason of their function rather than their position with regard to nouns (Delbrück). 2. Others were used for modifying Verbs, often specifying more precisely the meanings of verbs; these then may be called Preverbs. 3. Others, commonly referred to as Sentence Connectives, were used primarily to indicate the relationships between Clauses or Sentences (Watkins 1964; Lehmann 1969). 9.7.1.1. POSTPOSITIONS Postpositions in the various dialects are found with specific cases, in accordance with their meanings. Yet in the Old Hittite texts, the Genitive rather than such a specific case is prominent with Postpositions derived from Nouns, such as piran ‘(in) front’ (Neu 1970): kuiš

LUGAL-ua-aš

piran

ēšzi

who

king’s

front

he-sits

‘whoever sits before the king’ Such postpositions came to be frozen in form, whether unidentifiable as to etymology; derived from nouns, like piran; or derived from verbs, like Skr. tirás (viz. Lehmann). Further, as the language came to be VO, they were placed before nouns. As case forms were less clearly marked, they not only “governed” cases but also took over the meanings of case categories. The preposition tirás (tiró), derived from the root *tṛ- ‘cross’, illustrates both the etymological meaning of the form and its eventual development as preposition:

‘What the eagle brought for you in his claws, not dropping it [as he flew] through the skies, of that drink. You control [it for your own benefit]’. The syntactic use of such particles with nouns is accordingly clear. 9.7.1.2. PREVERBS 1. Rather than having the close relationships to nouns illustrated above, particles could instead be associated primarily with Verbs, often the same particles which were used as Postpositions. 2. Such combinations of particles and verbs came to be treated as units and are found repeatedly in specific uses (Delbrück 1888). A. Preverbs might occupy various positions: 1. If unmarked, they are placed before the verb; 2. If marked, they are placed initially in clauses (Watkins 1964). NOTE. In the course of time the Preverbs in unmarked position came to be combined with their verbs, though the identity of each element is long apparent in many of the dialects. Thus, in Modern German the primary accent is still maintained on some verbal roots, and in contrast with cognate nouns the prefix carries weak stress: erteílen ‘distribute’, Úrteil ‘judgment’. The steps toward the combination of preverb and verbal root have been described for the dialects, for example, Greek, in which uncombined forms as well as combined forms are attested during the period of our texts.

B. In the attested IE dialects: a. Preverbs which remained uncombined came to be treated as Adverbs. b. Combinations of Preverbs plus Verbs, on the other hand, eventually came to function like unitary elements. The two different positions of preverbs in early texts led eventually to different word classes. 9.7.1.3. SENTENCE PARTICLES 1. Particles were also used to relate sentences and clauses (J. Friedrich 1959:18, § 11):

‘If anyone breaks the hand or foot of a freeman, then he must give him twenty shekels of silver.’ Particles like the initial word in this example indicate the kind of clause that will follow and have long been well described. The function of particles like nu is not, however, equally clear. NOTE. Dillon and Götze related nu and the use of sentence connectives to similar particles in Old Irish (Dillon 1947). Such particles introduce many sentences in Old Irish and have led to compound verb forms in this VSO language. Delbrück had also noted their presence in Vedic (1888)

Since introductory šu and ta were more frequent than was nu in the older Hittite texts, scholars assumed that sentences in IE were regularly introduced by these sentence connectives. And Sturtevant proposed, as etymology for the anaphoric pronoun, combinations of so- and to- with enclitic pronouns, as in the well-known Hittite sequence ta-at, cf. IE tod, and so on (see Otten and Souček 1969 for the use of such particles in one text). It is clear that sentence connectives were used in Hittite to indicate continued treatment of a given topic (Raman 1973). It is also found with Hittite relative constructions, a function which may also be ascribed to Vedic sá and tád. NOTE. For Lehmann (1974), since this use may be accounted for through post-PIE influences, sentence connectives may have had a minor role in PIE.

2. Other particles, like Hitt. takku ‘if’, probably had their counterparts in PIE, even if the surface forms were completely unrelated. This is also true for Emphatic Particles like Skr. íd; they were used after nouns as well as imperatives. Such emphatic particles combined with imperatives suggest the presence of Interjections, which cannot usually be directly reconstructed for PIE but are well attested in the several dialects. Indo-European Language Association

9. Proto-Indo-European Syntax

3. A coordinate sentence connective -qe can clearly be reconstructed on the basis of Goth. u(h), Skr. ca, Gk. te, Lat. que, and so on. But its primary function is the coordination of elements in the sentence rather than clauses or sentences. NOTE. Moreover, when ca is used to connect verbs in the Vedic materials, they are parallel (Delbrück 1888); Delbrück finds only one possible exception. In an OV language the relating of successive verbs is carried out by means of nonfinite verbs placed before finite. We may then expect that coordinating particles had their primary use in PIE as connectors for sentence elements rather than for sentences.

Another such particle is -w ‘or’. Like -qe, the particle indicating disjunctive ‘or’ was postposed, in retention of the original pattern as late as Classical Latin. 4. Particles in PIE may also have corresponded to verbal qualifiers. a. The most notable of these is mē, which carried a negative modal meaning. b. There is indication of such uses of particles in other patterns, for example, of Vedic pur ‘earlier’ to indicate the past, as apparently Brugmann was the first to point out (Delbrück 1888), and also Vedic sma, to indicate repeated action in the past (Hoffmann 1967). It is curious that sma is also found after m in Vedic (Hoffmann 1967). NOTE. Lehmann suggested that such mood- and tense-carrying particles may have been transported from a postverbal to a preverbal position. Some particles may accordingly have been equivalent in an earlier stage of PIE to elements used after verbs to indicate verbal categories.

9.7.2. MARKED ORDER IN SENTENCES 1. Elements in sentences can be emphasized, by Marking; the chief device for such emphasis is Initial Position. Other sentence elements may also be placed in initial position for marking. 2. In unmarked position the preverb directly precedes the verb. Changes in normal order thus provide one of the devices for conveying emphasis. Other devices have to do with Selection, notably particles which are postposed after a marked element. 3. Emphasis can also be indicated by lexical selection.

4. Presumably other modifications might also be made, as in Intonation. The various syntactic devices accordingly provided means to introduce marking in sentences.

9.7.3. TOPICALIZATION WITH REFERENCE TO EMPHASIS Like emphasis, Topicalization is carried out by patterns of arrangement, but the arrangement is applied to coequal elements rather than elements which are moved from their normal order. Topicalization by arrangement is well known in the study of the early languages, as in the initial lines of the Homeric poems. The Iliad begins with the noun mȇnin ‘wrath’, the

Odyssey with the noun ándra ‘man’. These, to be sure, are the only possible nouns in the

syntactically simple sentences opening both poems: mȇnin áeide ‘Sing of the wrath’ and

ándra moi énnepe ‘Tell me of the man’. Yet the very arrangement of moi and other

enclitics occupying second position in the sentence, in accordance with Wackernagel’s law, indicates the use of initial placement among nominal elements for topicalization. The use of topicalization may be illustrated by a more complex set of sentences, such as the first address of Zeus in the Odyssey. Only the first lines of this will be quoted; but these indicate a shift in topic from the ‘gods’ to ‘men’, then to a particular man, Aegisthus, then to Agamemnon, and subsequently to Orestes (Lehmann 1974). Ȏ pópoi, hoȋon dḗnu theoùs brotoì aitióōntai; eks hēméōn gár phasi kák’ émmenai, hoi

dè kaì autoì, sphȇisin atasthalíēisin hupèr móron álge’ ékhousin, hōs kaì nu ̑n Aígisthos

hupèr móron Atreídao, gȇm’ álokhon mnēstḗn, tòn d’ éktane nostḗsanta,

‘Alas, how the mortals are now blaming the gods. For they say evils come from us, but

they themselves have woes beyond what’s fated by their own stupidities. Thus Aegisthus beyond what was fated has now married the wedded wife of Agamemnon, and killed him on his return.’ As this passage and many others that might be cited illustrate, the basic sentence patterns could be rearranged by stylistic rules, both for emphasis and for topicalization. In this way the relatively strict arrangement of simple sentences could be modified to bring about variety and flexibility. Indo-European Language Association

And the younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me.’ So he divided to them his livelihood.

et dixit adolescentior ex illis patri: Pater, da mihi portionem substantiæ, quæ me contingit. Et divisit illis substantiam.

And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, journeyed to a far country, and there wasted his possessions with prodigal living.

Et non post multos dies, congregatis omnibus, adolescentior filius peregre profectus est in regionem longinquam, et ibi dissipavit substantiam suam vivendo luxuriose.

Et surgens venit ad patrem suum. Cum autem adhuc longe esset, vidit illum pater ipsius, et misericordia motus est, et accurrens cecidit super collum ejus, et osculatus est eum.

καὶ ἀναστὰς ἦλθεν πρὸς τὸν πατέρα ἑαυτοῦ. ἔτι δὲ αὐτοῦ μακρὰν ἀπέχοντος εἶδεν αὐτὸν ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐσπλαγχνίσθη καὶ δραμὼν ἐπέπεσεν ἐπὶ τὸν τράχηλον αὐτοῦ καὶ κατεφίλησεν αὐτόν.

ην τὸ φῶς τὸ ἀληθινόν, ὃ φωτίζει πάντα ἄνθρωπον, ἐρχόμενον εἰς τὸν κόσμον.

10

Dhoubnei ēst, enim ijo dhoubnom gegner, atqe nē im dhoubnom gnōt.

He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him.

in mundo erat et mundus per ipsum factus est et mundus eum non cognovit

ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ ἦν, καὶ ὁ κόσμος δι' αὐτοῦ ἐγένετο, καὶ ὁ κόσμος αὐτὸν οὐκ ἔγνω.

11

Somobhos ludhét, atqe im somói ghadont nei ad.

He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him.

in propria venit et sui eum non receperunt

εἰς τὰ ἴδια ἦλθεν, καὶ οἱ ἴδιοι αὐτὸν οὐ παρέλαβον.

But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:

quotquot autem receperunt eum dedit eis potestatem filios Dei fieri his qui credunt in nomine eius

ὅσοι δὲ ἔλαβον αὐτόν, ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ἐξουσίαν τέκνα θεοῦ γενέσθαι, τοῖς πιστεύουσιν εἰς τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ,

13

who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

qui non ex sanguinibus neque ex voluntate carnis neque ex voluntate viri sed ex Deo nati sunt

οἳ οὐκ ἐξ αἱμάτων οὐδὲ ἐκ θελήματος σαρκὸς οὐδὲ ἐκ θελήματος ἀνδρὸς ἀλλ' ἐκ θεοῦ ἐγεννήθησαν.

And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.

et Verbum caro factum est et habitavit in nobis et vidimus gloriam eius gloriam quasi unigeniti a Patre plenum gratiae et veritatis

Καὶ ὁ λόγος σὰρξ ἐγένετο καὶ ἐσκήνωσεν ἐν ἡμῖν, καὶ ἐθεασάμεθα τὴν δόξαν αὐτοῦ, δόξαν ὡς μονογενοῦς παρὰ πατρός, πλήρης χάριτος καὶ ἀληθείας.

That laryngeal schwa is omitted if it is word-initial and appears alone, as in PIH *H3bhruH, or if the preceding syllable has full vocalism, as in *klamrós, but it is written elsewhere, as in *p∂ter-.

I.3.2. PIE - ENGLISH DICTIONARY The Latin meaning and Syntax further define the English meaning and proper usage of the Late Proto-Indo-European words, while the Notes help to inflect them correctly. The PIH column shows the laryngeal reconstruction of the words, or the roots behind Late PIE vocabulary.

Appendix II: Proto-Indo-European Phonology

APPENDIX II: PROTO-INDO-EUROPEAN PHONOLOGY II.1. DORSALS: THE PALATOVELAR QUESTION 1. Direct comparison in early IE studies, informed by the Centum-Satem isogloss, yielded the reconstruction of three rows of dorsal consonants in Late Proto-IndoEuropean by Bezzenberger (1890), a theory which became classic after Brugmann (Grundriss, 1879) included it in its 2nd Edition. The palatovelars *kj, *gj, and *gjh were supposedly [k]- or [g]-like sounds which underwent a characteristic phonetic change in the satemized languages – three original “velar rows” had then become two in all IndoEuropean dialects attested. NOTE. It is disputed whether Albanian shows remains of two or three series (cf. Ölberg 1976, Kortlandt 1980, Pänzer 1982), although the fact that only the worst known (and neither isolated nor remote) IE dialect could be the only one to show some remains of the oldest phonetic system is indeed very unlikely.

After that original belief, then, The centum group of languages merged the palatovelars *kj, *gj, and *gjh with the plain velars *k, *g, and *gh, while the satem group of languages merged the labiovelars *kw, *gw, and *gwh with the plain velars *k,* g, and *gh. NOTE. Such hypothesis would then support an evolution [kj] → [k] of Centum dialects before e and i, what is clearly against the general tendence of velars to move forward its articulation and palatalize in these environments.

2. The existence of the palatovelars as phonemes separate from the plain velars and labiovelars has been disputed. In most circumstances they appear to be allophones resulting from the neutralization of the other two series in particular phonetic circumstances. Their dialectal articulation was probably constrained, either to an especial phonetic environment (as Romance evolution of Latin [k] before [e] and [i]), either to the analogy of alternating phonetic forms. However, it is difficult to pinpoint exactly what the circumstances of the allophony are, although it is generally accepted that neutralization occurred after s and u, and often before r or a; also apparently before m and n in some Baltic dialects NOTE. The original allophonic distinction was disturbed when the labiovelars were merged with the plain velars. This produced a new phonemic distinction between palatal and plain velars, with an unpredictable alternation between palatal and plain in related forms of some roots (those from

451

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN original plain velars) but not others (those from original labiovelars). Subsequent analogical processes generalized either the plain or palatal consonant in all forms of a particular root. Those roots where the plain consonant was generalized are those traditionally reconstructed as having “plain velars” in the parent language, in contrast to “palatovelars”.

Many PIE linguists still believe that all three series were distinct in Late Proto-IndoEuropean, although newest research show that the palatovelar series were a later phonetic development of certain Satem dialects, later extended to others; this belief was originally articuled by Antoine Meillet in 1893, and was followed by linguists like Hirt (1899, 1927), Lehmann (1952), Georgiev (1966), Bernabé (1971), Steensland (1973), Miller (1976), Allen (1978), Kortlandt (1980), Shields (1981), Adrados (1995), etc. NOTE. There is, however, a minority who consider the labiovelars a secondary development from the pure velars, and reconstruct only velars and palatovelars (Kuryłowicz), already criticized by Bernabé, Steensland, Miller and Allen. Still less acceptance had the proposal to reconstruct only a labiovelar and a palatal series (Magnusson).

There is residual evidence of various sorts in the Satem languages of a former distinction between velar and labiovelar consonants: • In Sanskrit and Balto-Slavic, in some environments, resonant consonants (denoted by R) become iR after plain velars but uR after labiovelars. • In Armenian, some linguists assert that kw is distinguishable from k before front vowels. • In Albanian, some linguists assert that kw and gw are distinguishable from k and g before front vowels. NOTE. This evidence shows that the labiovelar series was distinct from the plain velar series in Late PIE, and cannot have been a secondary development in the Centum languages. However, it says nothing about the palatovelar vs. plain velar series. When this debate initially arose, the concept of a phoneme and its historical emergence was not clearly understood, however, and as a result it was often claimed (and sometimes still is claimed) that evidence of three-way velar distinction in the history of a particular IE language indicates that this distinction must be reconstructed for the parent language. This is theoretically unsound, as it overlooks the possibility of a secondary origin for a distinction.

3. The original (logical) trend to distinguish between series of “satemizable” dorsals, called ‘palatovelars’, and “non-satemizable” dorsals, the ‘pure velars’, was the easiest Indo-European Language Association

Appendix II: Proto-Indo-European Phonology

explanation found by neogrammarians, who apparently opened a different case for each irregularity they found. Such an initial answer should be considered erroneous today, at least as a starting-point to obtain a better explanation for this “phonological puzzle” (Bernabé). NOTE. “Palatals” and Velars appear mostly in complementary distributions, what supports their explanation as allophones of the same phonemes. Meillet (1937) establishes the contexts in which there are only velars: before a, r, and after s, u, while Georgiev (1966) states that the palatalization of velars should have been produced before e, i, j, and before liquid or nasal or w + e, i, offering statistical data supporting his conclusions. The presence of palatalized velar before o is then produced because of analogy with roots in which (due to the apophonic alternance) the velar phoneme is found before e and o, so the alternance *kje/*ko would be leveled as *kje/*kjo.

Arguments in favor of only two series of velars include: A) The plain velar series is statistically rarer than the other two, is entirely absent from affixes, and appears most often in certain phonological environments (described above). B) Alternations between plain velars and palatals are common in a number of roots across different “Satem” languages, where the same root appears with a palatal in some languages but a plain velar in others. This is consistent with the analogical generalization of one or another consonant in an originally alternating paradigm, but difficult to explain otherwise:

• *ak/ok-, sharp, cf. Lith. akúotas, O.C.S. ostru, O.Ind. asrís, Arm. aseln, but Lith. asrùs. • *akmon-, stone, cf. Lith. akmuõ, O.C.S. kamy, O.Ind. áśma, but Lith. âsmens. • *keu-, shine, cf. Lith. kiáune, Russ. kuna, O.Ind. Svas, Arm. sukh.

• *bhleg-, shine, cf. O.Ind. bhárgas, Lith. balgans, O.C.S. blagu, but Ltv. blâzt. • *gherdh-, enclose, O.Ind. grhá, Av. gərəda, Lith. gardas, O.C.S. gradu, Lith. zardas, Ltv. zârdas.

• *swekros, father-in-law, cf. O.Sla. svekry, O.Ind. śvaśru. B) The existence of different pairs (“satemized” and “not-satemized”) in the same language, as e.g.:

453

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

• *selg-, throw, cf. O.Ind. sṛjáti, sargas • *kau/keu-, shout, cf. Lith. kaukti, O.C.S. kujati, Russ. sova (as Gk. kauax); O.Ind. kauti, suka-.

• *kleu-, hear, Lith. klausýti, slove, O.C.S. slovo; O.Ind. karnas, sruti, srósati, śrnóti, sravas.

• *leuk-, O.Ind. rokás, ruśant-. NOTE. The old argument proposed by Brugmann (and later copied by many dictionaries) about “Centum loans” is not tenable today. For more on this, see Szemerény (1978), Mayrhofer (1952), Bernabé (1971).

C) Non-coincidence in periods and number of satemization stages; •

Old Indian shows two stages, 1.

PIE *k → O.Ind. s, and

2. PIE *kwe, *kwi → O.Ind. ke, ki, & PIE *ske, *ski > O.Ind. c (cf. cim, candra, etc.). •

In Slavic, however, three stages are found, 1.

PIE *k→s,

2. PIE *kwe, *kwi→č (čto, čelobek), and 3. PIE *kwoi→koi→ke gives ts (as Sla. tsená). D) In most attested languages which present aspirated as result of the so-called “palatals”, the palatalization of other phonemes is also attested (e.g. palatalization of labiovelars before e, i, etc.), what may indicate that there is an old trend to palatalize all possible sounds, of which the palatalization of velars is the oldest attested result. E) The existence of ‘Centum dialects’ in so-called Southern dialects, as Greek and some Paleo-Balkan dialects, and the

presence of Tocharian, a ‘Centum dialect’, in

Central Asia, being probably a northern IE dialect. NOTE. The traditional explanation of a three-way dorsal split requires that all Centum languages share a common innovation that eliminated the palatovelar series. Unlike for the Satem languages, however, there is no evidence of any areal connection among the Centum languages, and in fact there is evidence against such a connection -- the Centum languages are geographically

Indo-European Language Association

Appendix II: Proto-Indo-European Phonology noncontiguous. Furthermore, if such an areal innovation happened, we would expect to see some dialect differences in its implementation (cf. the above differences between Balto-Slavic and IndoIranian), and residual evidence of a distinct palatalized series (such evidence for a distinct labiovelar series does exist in the Satem languages; see below). In fact, however, neither type of evidence exists, suggesting that there was never a palatovelar series in the Centum languages.

4. It is generally believed that Satemization could have started as a late dialectal ‘wave’ (although not necessarily), which eventually affected almost all PIE dialectal groups. The origin is probably to be found in velars followed by e, i, even though alternating forms like *gen/gon caused natural analogycal corrections within each dialect, which obscures still more the original situation. Thus, non-satemized forms in so-called Satem languages are actually non-satemized remains of the original situation, just as Spanish has feliz and not *heliz, or fácil and not hácil, or French uses facile and nature, and not *fêle or *nûre as one should expect from its phonetic evolution. Some irregularities are indeed explained as borrowings from non-satemized dialects. 5. Those who support the model of the threefold distinction in PIE cite evidence from Albanian (Pedersen) and Armenian (Pisani) that they treated plain velars differently from the labiovelars in at least some circumstances, as well as the fact that Luwian apparently had distinct reflexes of all three series: *kj > z (probably [ts]); *k > k; *kw > ku (possibly still [kw]) (Craig Melchert). NOTE 1. Also, one of the most difficult problems which subsist in the interpretation of the satemization as a phonetic wave is that, even though in most cases the variation *kj/k may be attributed either to a phonetic environment or to the analogy of alternating apophonic forms, there are some cases in which neither one nor the other may be applied. Compare for example *okjtō(u), eight, which presents k before an occlusive in a form which shows no change (to suppose a syncope of an older *okjitō, as does Szemerényi, is an explanation ad hoc). Other examples in which the palatalization cannot be explained by the next phoneme nor by analogy are *swekru-, husband’s mother, *akmōn, stone, *peku, cattle. Such (still) unexplained exceptions, however, are not sufficient to consider the existence of a third row of ‘later palatalized’ velars (Bernabé, Cheng & Wang), although there are still scholars who come back to the support of the three velar rows’ hypothesis (viz. Tischler 1990). NOTE 2. Supporters of the palatovelars cite evidence from the Anatolian language Luwian, which supposedly attests a three-way velar distinction *kj→z (probably [ts]); *k→k; *kw→ku (probably [kw]), defended by Melchert (1987). So, the strongest argument in favor of the

455

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN traditional three-way system is that the the distinction supposedly derived from Luwian findings must be reconstructed for the parent language. However, the underlying evidence “hinges upon especially difficult or vague or otherwise dubious etymologies” (see Sihler 1995); and, even if those findings are supported by other evidence in the future, it is obvious that Luwian might also have been in contact with satemization trends of other (Late) PIE dialects, that it might have developed it’s own satemization trend, and that maybe the whole system was remade within the Anatolian branch.

6. A system of two gutturals, Velars and Labiovelars, is a linguistic anomaly, isolated in the PIE occlusive subsystem – there are no parallel oppositions bw-b, pw-p, tw-t, dw-d, etc. Only one feature, their pronunciation with an accompanying rounding of the lips, helps distinguish them from each other. Labiovelars turn velars before -u, and there are some neutralization positions which help identify labiovelars and velars; also, in some contexts (e.g. before -i, -e) velars tend to move forward its articulation and eventually palatalize. Both trends led eventually to Centum and Satem dialectalization.

II.2. PHONETIC RECONSTRUCTION II.2.1. PROTO-INDO-EUROPEAN SOUND LAWS A few sound-laws can be reconstructed, that may have been effective already in Late PIE dialects, by internal reconstruction. • Sievers’ Law (Edgerton’s Law, Lindeman’s option) • Hirt’s Law • Grassman’s Law • Bartholomae’s Law A. SIEVERS’ LAW Sievers’ Law in Indo-European linguistics accounts for the pronunciation of a consonant cluster with a glide before a vowel as it was affected by the phonetics of the preceding syllable. Specifically it refers to the alternation between *ij and *j, and possibly *uw and *u, in Indo-European languages. For instance, Proto-Indo-European *kor-jo-s became Gothic harjis “army”, but PIE *kerdh-jo-s became Proto-Germanic *herdijas, Gothic hairdeis [hɛrdĩs] “shepherd”. It differs from an ablaut in that the alternation is context-sensitive: PIE *ij followed a heavy syllable (a syllable with a diphthong, a long Indo-European Language Association

Appendix II: Proto-Indo-European Phonology

vowel, or ending in more than one consonant), but *j would follow a light syllable (i.e. a short vowel followed by a single consonant). This was first noticed by Germanic philologist Eduard Sievers, and his aim was to account for certain phenomena in the Germanic languages. He originally only discussed *j in medial position. He also noted, almost as an aside, that something similar seemed to be going on in the earliest Sanskrit texts (thus in the Rigveda dāivya- “heavenly” actually had three syllables in scansion (dāiviya-) but say satya- “true” was scanned as written). After him, scholars would find similar alternations in Greek and Latin, and alternation between *uw and *u, though the evidence is poor for all of these. Through time, evidence was announced regarding similar alternations of syllabicity in the nasal and liquid semivowels, though the evidence is extremely poor for these, despite the fact that such alternations in the non-glide semivowels would have left permanent, indeed irreversible, traces. The most ambitious extension of Sievers’ Law was proposed by Franklin Edgerton in a pair of articles in the journal Language in 1934 and 1943. He argued that not only was the syllabicity of prevocalic semivowels by context applicable to all six Indo-European semivowels, it was applicable in all positions in the word. Thus a form like *djēus, “sky” would have been pronounced thus only when it happened to follow a word ending with a short vowel. Everywhere else it would have had two syllables, *dijēus. The evidence for alternation presented by Edgerton was of two sorts. He cited several hundred passages from the oldest Indic text, the Rigveda, which he claimed should be rescanned to reveal hitherto unnoticed expressions of the syllable structure called for by his theory. But most forms show no such direct expressions; for them, Edgerton noted sharply skewed distributions that he interpreted as evidence for a lost alternation between syllabic and nonsyllabic semivowels. Thus say śiras “head” (from *śṛros) has no monosyllabic partner *śras (from *śros), but Edgerton noted that it occurred 100% of the time in the environments where his theory called for the syllabification of the *r. Appealing to the “formulaic” nature of oral poetry, especially in tricky and demanding literary forms like sacred Vedic versification, he reasoned that this was direct evidence for the previous existence of an alternant *śras, on the assumption that when (for whatever reason) this *śras and other forms like it came to be shunned, the typical collocations in which they would have (correctly) occurred inevitably became obsolete

457

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

pari passu with the loss of the form itself. And he was able to present a sizeable body of evidence in the form of these skewed distributions in both the 1934 and 1943 articles. In 1965 Fredrik Otto Lindeman published an article proposing a significant modification of Edgerton’s theory. Disregarding Edgerton’s evidence (on the grounds that he was not prepared to judge the niceties of Rigvedic scansion) he took instead as the data to be analyzed the scansions in Grassmann’s Wörterbuch zum Rig-Veda. From these he concluded that Edgerton had been right, but only up to a point: the alternations he postulated did indeed apply to all semivowels; but in word-initial position, the alternation was limited to forms like *djēus/dijēus “sky”, as cited above—that is, words where the “short” form was monosyllabic. B. HIRT’S LAW Hirt’s law, named after Hermann Hirt who postulated it originally in 1895, is a BaltoSlavic sound law which states in its modern form that the inherited Proto-Indo-European stress would retract to non-ablauting pretonic vowel or a syllabic sonorant if it was followed by a consonantal (non-syllabic) laryngeal that closed the preceding syllable. Compare: • PIE: *dhūmós “smoke” (compare Sanskrit dhūmá and Ancient Greek thumós) → Lithuanian dū́mai, Latvian dũmi, Croatian/Serbian dȉm. • PIE

*gwrīw

“neck;

mane”

(compare

Sanskrit

grīv)

→

Latvian

gr ĩva,

Croatian/Serbian grȉva. • PIE *pln ̥ ós “full” (compare Sanskrit pūrṇá) → Lithuanian pìlnas, Latvian pil̃ns, Serbian pȕn.

Hirt’s law did not operate if the laryngeal preceded a vowel, or if the laryngeal followed the second component of a diphthong. Therefore, Hirt's law must be older than then the loss of laryngeals in prevocalic position (in glottalic theory formulation: to the merger of glottalic feature of PIE voiced stops who dissolved into laryngeal and buccal part with the reflexes of the original PIE laryngeals), because the stress was not retracted in e.g. PIH *tenh₂wós (Ancient Greek tanaós, Sanskrit tanú) “thin” → Latvian tiêvs, and also older than the loss of syllabic sonorants in Balto-Slavic, as can be seen from the abovementioned reflexes of PIH *pl̥h1nós, and also in e.g. PIH *dl̥h1ghós “long” (compare Indo-European Language Association

Appendix II: Proto-Indo-European Phonology

Sanskrit dīrghá, Ancient Greek dolikhós) → Lithuanian ìlgas, Latvian il̃gs, Croatian/Serbian dȕg. It follows from the above that Hirt's law must have preceded Winter's law, but was necessarily posterior to Balto-Slavic oxytonesis (shift of stress from inner syllable to the end of the word in accent paradigms with end-stressed forms), because oxytonesisoriginating accent was preserved in non-laryngeal declension paradigms; e.g. the retraction occurs in mobile PIH *eh2-stems so thus have dative plural of Slovene goràm and Chakavian goràmi (< PBSl. *-āmús), locative plural of Slovene and Chakavian goràh (< PBSl. *-āsú), but in thematic (o-stem) paradigm dative plural of Slovene možȇm (< PBSl. *-mús), locative plural of Slovene možéh and Chakavian vlāsíh (< PBSl. *-oysú). The retraction of accent from the ending to the vowel immediately preceding the stemending laryngeal (as in PBSl. reflex of PIH *gwrH-) is obvious. There is also a strong evidence that the same was valid for Old Prussian (in East Baltic dative and locative plural accents were generalized in non-laryngeal inflections). From the Proto-Indo-European perspective, the importance of Hirt’s law lies in the strong correspondence it provides between the Balto-Slavic and Vedic/Ancient Greek accentuation (which more or less intactly reflects the original Late PIE state), and somewhat less importantly, provides a reliable criterion to distinguish the original sequence of PIH *eH from lengthened grade *ē, as it unambiguously points to the presence of a laryngeal in the stem. C. GRASSMANN’S LAW Grassmann’s law, named after its discoverer Hermann Grassmann, is a dissimilatory phonological process in Ancient Greek and Sanskrit which states that if an aspirated consonant is followed by another aspirated consonant in the next syllable, the first one loses the aspiration. The descriptive (synchronic) version was described for Sanskrit by Panini. Here are some examples in Greek of the effects of Grassmann’s Law: • [thu-oː] θύω ‘I kill an animal’ • [e-tu-theː] ἔτυθη ‘it was killed’ • [thrik-s] θρίξ ‘hair’ 459

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

• [trikh-es] τριχές ‘hairs’ • [thap-sai] θάψαι ‘to bury (aorist)’ • [thapt-ein] θάπτειν ‘to bury (present)’ • [taph-os] τάφος ‘a grave’ • [taph-e] ταφή ‘burial’ In the reduplication which forms the perfect tense in both Greek and Sanskrit, if the initial consonant is aspirated, the prepended consonant is unaspirated by Grassmann’s Law. For instance [phu-oː] φύω ‘I grow’ : [pe-phuː-ka] πεφυκα ‘I have grown’. DIASPIRATE ROOTS Cases like [thrik-s] ~ [trikh-es] and [thap-sai] ~ [taph-ein] illustrates the phenomenon of diaspirate roots, for which two different analyses have been given. In one account, the “underlying diaspirate” theory, the underlying roots are taken to be /thrikh/ and /thaph/. When an /s/ (or word edge, or various other sounds) immediately follows, then the second aspiration is lost, and the first aspirate therefore survives ([thriks], [thap-sai]). If a vowel follows the second aspirate, it survives unaltered, and therefore the first aspiration is lost by Grassmann’s Law ([trikh-es], [taph-ein]). A different analytical approach was taken by the ancient Indian grammarians. In their view, the roots are taken to be underlying /trikh/ and /taph/. These roots persist unaltered in [trikh-es] and [taph-ein]. But if an /s/ follows, it triggers an “aspiration throwback” (ATB), in which the aspiration migrates leftward, docking onto the initial consonant ([thrik-s], [thap-sai]). Interestingly, in his initial formulation of the law Grassmann briefly referred to ATB to explain these seemingly aberrant forms. However, the consensus among contemporary historical linguists is that the former explanation (underlying representation) is the correct one. In the later course of Sanskrit, (and under the influence of the grammarians) ATB was applied to original monoaspirates through an analogical process. Thus, from the verb root gah ‘to plunge’, the desiderative stem jighakha- is formed. This is by analogy with the forms bubhutsati (a desiderative form) and bhut (a nominal form, both from the root budh ‘to be awake’, originally PIE *bhudh-). Indo-European Language Association

Appendix II: Proto-Indo-European Phonology

D. BARTHOLOMAE’S LAW Bartholomae’s law is an early Indo-European sound law affecting the Indo-Iranian family, though thanks to the falling together of plain voiced and voiced aspirated stops in Iranian, its impact on the phonological history of that subgroup is unclear. It states that in a cluster of two or more obstruents (s or a stop (plosive)), any one of which is a voiced aspirate anywhere in the sequence, the whole cluster becomes voiced and aspirated. Thus to the PIE root *bheudh “learn, become aware of” the participle *bhudh-to- “enlightened” loses the aspiration of the first stop (Grassmann’s Law) and with the application of Bartholomae’s Law and regular vowel changes gives Sanskrit buddha- “enlightened”. A written form such as -ddh- (a literal rendition of the devanāgarī representation) presents problems of interpretation. The choice is between a long voiced stop with a specific release feature symbolized in transliteration by -h-, or else a long stop (or stop cluster) with a different phonational state, “murmur”, whereby the breathy release is an artifact of the phonational state. The latter interpretation is rather favored by such phenomena as the Rigvedic form gdha “he swallowed” which is morphologically a middle aorist (more exactly ‘injunctive’) to the root ghas- “swallow”, as follows: ghs-t-a > *gzdha whence gdha by the regular loss of a sibilant between stops in Indic. While the idea of voicing affecting the whole cluster with the release feature conventionally called aspiration penetrating all the way to the end of the sequence is not entirely unthinkable, the alternative—the spread of a phonational state (but murmur rather than voice) through the whole sequence—involves one less step and therefore via Occam’s Razor counts as the better interpretation. Bartholomae’s Law intersects with another Indic development, namely what looks like the deaspiration of aspirated stops in clusters with s: descriptively, Proto-Indo-European *leigh-si “you lick” becomes *leiksi, whence Sanskrit lekṣi. However, Grassmann’s Law, whereby an aspirated stop becomes non-aspirated before another aspirated stop (as in the example of buddha-, above), suggests something else. In late Vedic and later forms of Sanskrit, all forms behave as though aspiration was simply lost in clusters with s, so such forms to the root dugh- “give milk” (etymologically *dhugh-) show the expected devoicing and deaspiration in, say, the desiderative formation du-dhukṣ-ati (with the 461

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

root-initial dh- intact, that is, undissimilated). But the earliest passages of the Rigveda show something different: desiderative dudukṣati, aor. dukṣata (for later dhukṣata) and so on. Thus it is apparent that what went into Grassmann’s Law were forms like *dhugzhata, dhudhugzha- and so on, with aspiration in the sibilant clusters intact. The deaspiration and devoicing of the sibilant clusters were later and entirely separate phenomena – and connected with yet another suite of specifically Indic sound laws, namely a ‘rule conspiracy’ to eliminate all voiced (and murmured) sibilants. Indeed, even the example ‘swallowed’ given above contradicts the usual interpretation of devoicing and deaspiration: by such a sequence, *ghs-to would have given, first, *ksto (if the process was already Indo-European) or *ksta (if Indo-Iranian in date), whence Sanskrit *kta, not gdha. E. BRUGMANN’S LAW Brugmann’s law, named for Karl Brugmann, states that Proto-Indo-European *o (the ablaut alternant of *e) in non-final syllables became *ā in open syllables (syllables ending in a single consonant followed by a vowel) in Indo-Iranian. Everywhere else the outcome was *a, the same as the reflexes of PIE *e and *a. The rule seems not to apply to “nonapophonic *o”, that is, *o that has no alternant, as in *poti-, “master, lord” (thus Sanskrit pati-, not *pāti, there being no such root as *pet- “rule, dominate”). Similarly the form traditionally reconstructed as *owis, “sheep” (Sanskrit avi-), which is a good candidate for re-reconstructing as PIH *h3ewi- with an o-coloring laryngeal rather than an ablauting o-grade. The theory accounts for a number of otherwise very puzzling facts. Sanskrit has pitaras, mātaras, bhrātaras for “fathers, mothers, brothers” but svasāras for “sisters”, a fact neatly explained by the traditional reconstruction of the stems as *-ter- for “father, mother, brother” but *swesor- for “sister” (cf. Latin pater, māter, frāter but soror; note, though, that in all four cases the Latin vowel in the final syllable was originally long). Similarly, the great majority of n-stem nouns in Indic have a long stem-vowel, such as brāhmaṇas “Brahmins”, śvānas “dogs” from *kwones, correlating with information from other Indo-European languages that these were actually on-stems. But there is one noun, ukṣan- “ox”, which in the Rigveda shows forms like ukṣǎṇas, “oxen”. These were Indo-European Language Association

later replaced by “regular” formations (ukṣāṇas and so on, some as early as the Rigveda itself), but the notion that this might be an *en-stem is supported by the unique morphology of the Germanic forms, e.g. Old English oxa nom.singular “ox”, exen plural—the Old English plural stem (e.g., the nominative) continuing Proto-Germanic *uχsiniz < *uχseniz, with two layers of umlaut. As in Indic, this is the only certain Old English n-stem that points to *en-vocalism rather than *on-vocalism. Perhaps the most startling confirmation comes from the inflection of the perfect tense, wherein a Sanskrit root like sad- “sit” has sasada for “I sat” and sasāda for “he, she, it sat”. It was tempting to see this as some kind of ‘therapeutic’ reaction to the fallingtogether of the endings *-a “I” and *-e “he/she/it” as -a, but it was troubling that the distinction was found exclusively in roots that ended with a single consonant. That is, dadarśa “saw” is both first and third person singular, even though a form like *dadārśa is perfectly acceptable in terms of Sanskrit syllable structure. This mystery was solved when the ending of the perfect in the first person singular was reanalyzed as PIH *-h2e, that is, beginning with an a-coloring laryngeal: that is, at the time Brugmann’s Law was operative, a form of the type *se-sod-h₂e in the first person did not have an open root

syllable. A problem (minor) for this interpretation is that roots that pretty plainly must have ended in a consonant cluster including a laryngeal, such as jan- < *genh1- “beget”, and which therefore should have had a short vowel throughout (like darś- “see” < *dork), nevertheless show the same patterning as sad-: jajana 1sg., jajāna 3sg. Whether this is

a catastrophic failure of the theory is a matter of taste, but after all, those who think the pattern seen in roots like sad- have a morphological, not a phonological, origin, have their own headaches, such as the total failure of this “morphological” development to include roots ending in two consonants. And such an argument would in any case cut the ground out from under the neat distributions seen in the kinship terms, the special behavior of “ox”, and so on. Perhaps the most worrisome data are adverbs like Sankrit prati, Greek pros (< *proti) (meaning “motion from or to a place or location at a place”, depending on the case of the noun it governs) and some other forms, all of which appear to have ablauting vowels. They also all have a voiceless stop after the vowel, which may or may not be significant. 463

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

And for all its charms, Brugmann’s Law has few supporters nowadays – even Brugmann himself eventually gave up on it, and Jerzy Kuryłowicz, the author of the brilliant insight into the sasada/sasāda matter, eventually abandoned his analysis in favor of an untenable appeal to the agency of marked vs unmarked morphological categories. Untenable because, for example, it's a commonplace of structural analysis that 3rd person singular forms are about as “unmarked” as a verb form can be, but in Indic it is the one that “gets” the long vowel, which by the rules of the game is the marked member of the long/short opposition. F. WINTER’S LAW Winter’s law, named after Werner Winter who postulated it in 1978, is a sound law operating on Balto-Slavic short vowels *e, *o, *a, *i and *u, according to which they lengthen in front of unaspirated voiced stops in closed syllable, and that syllable gains rising, acute accent. Compare: • PIE *sed- “to sit” (that also gave Latin sedeō, Sanskrit sīdati, Ancient Greek hézomai and English sit) → Proto-Balto-Slavic *sēd-tey → Lith. sė́sti, O.C.S. sěsti (with regular Balto-Slavic *dt→st change; O.C.S. and Common Slavic yat (ě) is a regular reflex of PIE/PBSl. long *ē). • PIE *ābl- “apple” (that also gave English apple) → Proto-Balto-Slavic *ābl- → standard Lithuanian obuolỹs (accusative óbuolį) and also dialectal forms of óbuolas and Samogitian óbulas, O.C.S. ablъko, modern Croatian jȁbuka, Slovene jábolko etc. Winter's law is important for several reasons. Most importantly, it indirectly shows the difference between the reflexes of PIE *b, *d, *g, *gw in Balto-Slavic (in front of which Winter's law operates in closed syllable), and PIE *bh, *dh, *gh, *gwh (before which there is no effect of Winter's law). This shows that in relative chronology Winter's law operated before PIE aspirated stops *bh, *dh, *gh, merged with PIE plain voiced stops *b, *d, *g in Balto-Slavic. Secondary, Winter’s law also indirectly shows the difference between the reflexes of PIE *a and PIE *o which otherwise merged to *a in Balto-Slavic. When these vowels lengthen

Indo-European Language Association

Appendix II: Proto-Indo-European Phonology

in accordance with Winter’s law, one can see that old *a has lengthened into Balto-Slavic *ā (which later gave Lithuanian o, Latvian ā, O.C.S. a), and old *o has lengthened into Balto-Slavic *ō (which later gave Lithuanian and Latvian uo, but still O.C.S. a). In later development that represented Common Slavic innovation, the reflexes of Balto-Slavic *ā and *ō were merged, as one can see that they both result in O.C.S. a. This also shows that Winter’s law operated prior to the common Balto-Slavic change *o→*a. The original formulation of Winter’s law stated that the vowels regularly lengthened in front of PIE voiced stops in all environments. As much as there were numerous examples that supported this formulation, there were also many counterexamples, such as OCS stogъ “stack” < PIE *stógos, O.C.S. voda “water” < PIE *wodṓr (collective noun formed from PIE *wódr)̥ . Adjustment of Winter’s law, with the conclusion that it operates only

on closed syllables, was proposed by Matasović in 1994 and which, unlike most of the

other prior proposals, successfully explains away most counterexamples, although it's still not generally accepted. Matasović's revision of Winter's law has been used in the Lexikon der indogermanischen Verben. Other variations of blocking mechanism for

Winter’s law have been proposed by Kortlandt, Shintani, Rasmussen, Dybo and Holst but have not gained wide acceptance. Today Winter's law is taken for granted by all specialists in Balto-Slavic historical linguistics, though the exact details of the restrictions of law remain in dispute.

II.3. THE LARYNGEAL THEORY 1. The laryngeal theory is a generally accepted theory of historical linguistics which proposes the existence of a set of three (or up to nine) consonant sounds that appear in most current reconstructions of the Proto-Indo-European language, which usually target Middle PIE or Indo-Hittite (PIH), i.e. the common IE language that includes Anatolian. These sounds have since disappeared in all existing IE languages, but some laryngeals are believed to have existed in the Anatolian languages. NOTE. In this Modern Indo-European grammar, such uncertain sounds are replaced by the vowels they yielded in Late PIE dialects (an -a frequently substitutes the traditional schwa indogermanicum), cf. MIE patér for PIH *ph2tér, MIE ōktō(u), eight, for PIH *h3ekteh3, etc. Again, for a MIE based on the northwestern dialects, such stricter reconstruction would give probably a simpler language in terms of phonetic irregularities (ablaut or apophony), but also a language phonologically too different from Latin, Greek, Germanic and Balto-Slavic dialects. Nevertheless, reconstructions with laryngeals are often shown in this grammar as ‘etymological sources’, so to speak, as Old English forms are shown when explaining a Modern English word in modern dictionaries. The rest of this chapter offers a detailed description of the effects of laryngeals in IE phonology and morphology.

2. The evidence for them is mostly indirect, but serves as an explanation for differences between vowel sounds across Indo-European languages. For example, Sanskrit and Ancient Greek, two descendents of PIE, exhibit many similar words that have differing vowel sounds. Assume that the Greek word contains the vowel e and the corresponding 471

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

Sanskrit word contains i instead. The laryngeal theory postulates these words originally had the same vowels, but a neighboring consonant which had since disappeared had altered the vowels. If one would label the hypothesized consonant as *h1, then the original PIH word may have contained something like *eh1 or *ih1, or perhaps a completely different sound such as *ah1. The original phonetic values of the laryngeal sounds remain controversial (v.i.)

3. The beginnings of the theory were proposed by Ferdinand de Saussure in 1879, in an article chiefly devoted to something else altogether (demonstrating that *a and *o were separate phonemes in PIE). Saussure’s observations, however, did not achieve any general currency until after Hittite was discovered and deciphered in the early 20th century. Hittite had a sound or sounds written with symbols from the Akkadian syllabary conventionally transcribed as ḫ, as in te-iḫ-ḫi , “I put, am putting”. Various more or less obviously unsatisfactory proposals were made to connect these (or this) to the PIE consonant system as then reconstructed. It remained for Jerzy Kuryłowicz (Études indoeuropéennnes I, 1935) to propose that these sounds lined up with Saussure’s conjectures. Since then, the laryngeal theory (in one or another form) has been accepted by most Indo-Europeanists. 4. The late discovery of these sounds by Indo-Europeanists is largely due to the fact that Hittite and the other Anatolian languages are the only Indo-European languages where at least some of them are attested directly and consistently as consonantal sounds. Otherwise, their presence is to be seen mostly through the effects they have on neighboring sounds, and on patterns of alternation that they participate in; when a laryngeal is attested directly, it is usually as a vowel (as in the Greek examples below). Most Indo-Europeanists accept at least some version of laryngeal theory because their existence simplifies some otherwise hard-to-explain sound changes and patterns of alternation that appear in the Indo-European languages, and solves some minor mysteries, such as why verb roots containing only a consonant and a vowel have only long vowels e.g. PIE *dō- “give”; re-reconstructing PIH *deh3- instead not only accounts for the patterns of alternation more economically than before, but brings the root into line with the basic consonant - vowel - consonant Indo-European type.

Indo-European Language Association

Appendix II: Proto-Indo-European Phonology

5. There are many variations of the Laryngeal theory. Some scholars, such as Oswald Szemerényi, reconstruct just one. Some follow Jaan Puhvel’s reconstruction of eight or more (in his contribution to Evidence for Laryngeals, ed. Werner Winter). Most scholars work with a basic three: • *h1, the “neutral” laryngeal • *h2, the “a-colouring” laryngeal • *h3, the “o-colouring” laryngeal Many scholars, however, either insist on or allow for a fourth consonant, *h4, which differs from *h2 only in not being reflected as Anatolian ḫ. Accordingly, except when discussing Hittite evidence, the theoretical existence of an *h4 contributes little. Another such theory, but much less generally accepted, is Winfred P. Lehmann’s view that *h1 was actually two separate sounds, due to inconsistent reflexes in Hittite. (He assumed that one was a glottal stop and the other a glottal fricative.) Some direct evidence for laryngeal consonants from Anatolian: PIE *a is a rarish sound, and in an uncommonly large number of good etymologies it is word-initial. Thus PIE (traditional) *antí, in front of and facing > Greek antí “against”; Latin ante “in front of, before”; (Sanskrit ánti “near; in the presence of”). But in Hittite there is a noun ḫants “front, face”, with various derivatives (ḫantezzi “first”, and so on, pointing to a PIH root-noun *h2ent- “face” (of which *h2enti would be the locative singular). NOTE. It does not necessarily follow that all reconstructed PIE forms with initial *a should automatically be rewritten as PIH *h2e.

Similarly, the traditional PIE reconstruction for ‘sheep’ is *owi-, whence Skt ávi-, Latin ovis, Greek óïs. But now Luvian has ḫawi-, indicating instead a reconstruction *h3ewi-. But if laryngeals as consonants were first spotted in Hittite only in 1935, what was the basis for Saussure’s conjectures some 55 years earlier? They sprang from a reanalysis of how the patterns of vowel alternation in Proto-Indo-European roots of different structure aligned with one another. 6. A feature of Proto-Indo-European morpheme structure was a system of vowel alternations christened ablaut (‘alternate sound’) by early German scholars and still

473

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

generally known by that term, except in Romance languages, where the term apophony is preferred. Several different such patterns have been discerned, but the commonest one, by a wide margin, is e/o/zero alternation found in a majority of roots, in many verb and noun stems, and even in some affixes (the genitive singular ending, for example, is attested as -es, -os, and -s). The different states are called ablaut grades; e-grade or “full grades”, o-grade and “zero-grade”. Thus the root *sed-, “to sit (down)” (roots are traditionally cited in the e-grade, if they have one), has three different shapes: *sed-, *sod-, and *sd-. This kind of patterning is found throughout the PIE root inventory and is transparent: • *sed-: in Latin sedeō “am sitting”, Old English sittan “to sit” < *set-ja- (with umlaut) < *sed-; Greek hédrā “seat, chair” < *sed-. • *sod-: in Latin solium “throne” (Latin l sporadically replaces d between vowels, said by Roman grammarians to be a Sabine trait) = Old Irish suideⁿ /suð’e/ “a sitting” (all details regular from PIE *sod-jo-m); Gothic satjan = Old English settan “to set” (causative) < *sat-ja- (umlaut again) < PIE *sod-eje-. PIE *se-sod-e “sat” (perfect) > Sanskrit sa-sād-a per Brugmann’s law. • *sd-: in compounds, as *ni- “down” + *sd- = *nisdos “nest”: English nest < ProtoGermanic *nistaz, Latin nīdus < *nizdos (all regular developments). The 3 pl. (third person plural) of the perfect would have been *se-sd-r̥ whence Indo-Iranian *sazdṛ,

which gives (by regular developments) Sanskrit sedur /sēdur/.

Now, in addition to the commonplace roots of consonant + vowel + consonant structure there are also well-attested roots like *dhē- “put, place”: these end in a vowel, which is always long in the categories where roots like *sed- have full grades; and in those forms where zero grade would be expected, before an affix beginning with a consonant, we find a short vowel, reconstructed as *ə, or schwa (more formally, schwa primum indogermanicum). The cross-language correspondences of this vowel are different from the other five short vowels. NOTE. Before an affix beginning with a vowel, there is no trace of a vowel in the root, as shown below.

Whatever caused a short vowel to disappear entirely in roots like *sed-/*sod-/*sd-, it was a reasonable inference that a long vowel under the same conditions would not quite Indo-European Language Association

Appendix II: Proto-Indo-European Phonology

disappear, but would leave a sort of residue. This residue is reflected as i in Indic while dropping in Iranian; it gives variously e, a, o in Greek; it mostly falls together with the reflexes of PIE *a in the other languages (always bearing in mind that short vowels in non-initial syllables undergo various adventures in Italic, Celtic, and Germanic): • *dō- “give”: in Latin dōnum “gift" = Old Irish dán /dāṅ/ and Sanskrit dâna- (â = ā with tonic accent); Greek dí-dō-mi (reduplicated present) “I give” = Sanskrit dádāmi. But in the participles, Greek dotós “given” = Sanskrit ditá-, Latin datus all < *də-tó-. • *stā- “stand”: in Greek hístēmi (reduplicated present, regular from *si-stā-), Sanskrit a-sthā-t aorist “stood”, Latin testāmentum “testimony” < *ter-stā- < *tri-stā- (“third party” or the like). But Sanskrit sthitá-“stood”, Greek stasís “a standing”, Latin supine infinitive statum “to stand”. Conventional wisdom lined up roots of the *sed- and *dō- types as follows: Full Grades

Weak Grades

sed-, sod-

sd-

“sit”

dō-

də-, d-

“give”

But there are other patterns of “normal” roots, such as those ending with one of the six resonants (*j w r l m n), a class of sounds whose peculiarity in Proto-Indo-Eruopean is that they are both syllabic (vowels, in effect) and consonants, depending on what sounds are adjacent: Root *bher-/bhor-/bhr̥- ~ bhr- “carry”

• *bher-: in Latin ferō = Greek phérō, Avestan barā, Old Irish biur, Old English

bera all “I carry”; Latin ferculum “bier, litter” < *bher-tlo- “implement for carrying”. • *bhor-: in Gothic barn “child” (= English dial. bairn), Greek phoréō “I wear [clothes]” (frequentative formation, *”carry around”); Sanskrit bhâra- “burden” (*bhor-o- via Brugmann’s law).

475

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

• *bhr̥- before consonants: Sanskrit bhṛ-tí- “a carrying”; Gothic gabaurþs

/gaborθs/, Old English gebyrd /yebürd/, Old High German geburt all “birth” < *gaburdi- < *bhr̥-tí-

• *bhr- before vowels: Ved bibhrati 3pl. “they carry” < *bhi-bhr-n̥ti; Greek di-

phrós “chariot footboard big enough for two men” < *dwi-bhr-o-.

Saussure’s insight was to align the long-vowel roots like *dō-, *stā- with roots like *bher-, rather than with roots of the *sed- sort. That is, treating “schwa” not as a residue of a long vowel but, like the *r of *bher-/*bhor-/*bhr̥-, an element that was present in the

root in all grades, but which in full grade forms coalesced with an ordinary e/o root

vowel to make a long vowel, with ‘coloring’ (changed phonetics) of the e-grade into the bargain; the mystery element was seen by itself only in zero grade forms:

Full Grades

Zero Grade

bher-, bhor-

bhr̥- / bhr-

deX, doX-

dẊ- / dX-

“carry” “give”

* Ẋ = syllabic form of the mystery element

Saussure treated only two of these elements, corresponding to our *h2 and *h3. Later it was noticed that the explanatory power of the theory, as well as its elegance, were enhanced if a third element were added, our *h1. which has the same lengthening and syllabifying properties as the other two but has no effect on the color of adjacent vowels. Saussure offered no suggestion as to the phonetics of these elements; his term for them, “coéfficiants sonantiques”, was not however a fudge, but merely the term in general use for glides, nasals, and liquids (i.e., the PIE resonants) as in roots like *bher-. As mentioned above, in forms like *dwi-bhr-o- (etymon of Greek diphrós, above), the new “coéfficiants sonantiques” (unlike the six resonants) have no reflexes at all in any daughter language. Thus the compound PIH *mns̥ -dheh- “to ‘fix thought’, be devout,

become rapt” forms a noun *mn̥s-dhh-o- seen in Proto-Indo-Iranian *mazdha- whence Sanskrit medhá- /mēdha/ “sacrificial rite, holiness” (regular development as in sedur <

*sazdur, above), Avestan mazda- “name (originally an epithet) of the greatest deity”.

Indo-European Language Association

Appendix II: Proto-Indo-European Phonology

There is another kind of unproblematic root, in which obstruents flank a resonant. In the zero grade, unlike the case with roots of the *bher- type, the resonant is therefore always syllabic (being always between two consonants). An example would be *bhendh“tie, bind”: • *bhendh-: in Germanic forms like Old English bindan “to tie, bind”, Gothic bindan; Lithuanian beñdras “chum”, Greek peĩsma “rope, cable” /pēsma/ < *phenth-sma < *bhendh-smn̥.

• *bhondh-: in Sanskrit bandhá- “bond, fastening” (*bhondh-o-; Grassmann’s

law) = Old Icelandic bant, OE bænd; Old English bænd, Gothic band “he tied” < *(bhe)bhondh-e. • *bhn̥dh-: in Sanskrit baddhá- < *bhn̥dh-tó- (Bartholomae’s law), Old English

gebunden, Gothic bundan; German Bund “league”. (English bind and bound show the effects of secondary (Middle English) vowel lengthening; the original length is preserved in bundle.)

This is all straightforward and such roots fit directly into the overall patterns. Less so are certain roots that seem sometimes to go like the *bher- type, and sometimes to be unlike anything else, with (for example) long syllabics in the zero grades while at times pointing to a two-vowel root structure. These roots are variously called “heavy bases”, “dis(s)yllabic roots”, and “seṭ roots” (the last being a term from Pāṇini’s grammar. It will be explained below). For example, the root “be born, arise” is given in the usual etymological dictionaries as follows: A. PIE *gen-, *gon-, *gn̥n-

B. PIE *genə-, *gonə-, *gn̥̄- (where n̥̄ = a long syllabic n̥)

The (A) forms occur when the root is followed by an affix beginning with a vowel; the (B) forms when the affix begins with a consonant. As mentioned, the full-grade (A) forms look just like the *bher- type, but the zero grades always and only have reflexes of syllabic resonants, just like the *bhendh- type; and unlike any other type, there is a second root vowel (always and only *ə) following the second consonant:

477

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

*gen(ə)• PIE *genos- neut s-stem “race, clan” > Greek (Homeric) génos, -eos, Sanskrit jánas-, Avestan zanō, Latin genus, -eris. • Greek gené-tēs “begetter, father”; géne-sis < *genə-ti- “origin”; Sanskrit jániman- “birth, lineage”, jáni-tar- “progenitor, father”, Latin genitus “begotten” < genatos. *gon(e)• Sanskrit janayati “beget” = Old English cennan /kennan/ < *gon-eje(causative); Sanskrit jána- “race” (o-grade o-stem) = Greek gónos, -ou “offspring”. • Sanskrit jajāna 3sg. “was born” < *ge-gon-e.

̥ -/*gn̥̄*gnn

• Gothic kuni “clan, family” = OE cynn /künn/, English kin; Rigvedic jajanúr

3pl.perfect < *ge-gn̥n- (a relic; the regular Sanskrit form in paradigms like this is

jajñur, a remodeling).

• Sanskrit jātá- “born” = Latin nātus (Old Latin gnātus, and cf. forms like

cognātus “related by birth”, Greek kasí-gnētos “brother”); Greek gnḗsios “belonging to the race”. (The ē in these Greek forms can be shown to be original, not Attic-Ionic developments from Proto-Greek *ā.) NOTE. The Pāṇinian term “seṭ” (that is, sa-i-ṭ) is literally “with an /i/”. This refers to the fact that roots so designated, like jan- “be born”, have an /i/ between the root and the suffix, as we’ve seen in Sanskrit jánitar-, jániman-, janitva (a gerund). Cf. such formations built to “aniṭ” ("without an /i/") roots, such as han- “slay”: hántar- “slayer”, hanman- “a slaying”, hantva (gerund). In Pāṇini’s analysis, this /i/ is a linking vowel, not properly a part of either the root or the suffix. It is simply that some roots are in effect in the list consisting of the roots that (as we would put it) ‘take an -i-’.

The startling reflexes of these roots in zero grade before a consonant (in this case, Sanskrti ā, Greek nē, Latin nā, Lithuanian ìn) is explained by the lengthening of the (originally perfectly ordinary) syllabic resonant before the lost laryngeal, while the same laryngeal protects the syllabic status of the preceding resonant even before an affix

Indo-European Language Association

Appendix II: Proto-Indo-European Phonology

beginning with a vowel: the archaic Vedic form jajanur cited above is structurally quite the same (*ge-gn̥h₁-r̥) as a form like *da-dṛś-ur “they saw” < *de-dr̥k-r̥.

Incidentally, redesigning the root as *genh- has another consequence. Several of the

Sanskrit forms cited above come from what look like o-grade root vowels in open syllables, but fail to lengthen to -ā- per Brugmann’s law. All becomes clear when it is understood that in such forms as *gonh- before a vowel, the *o is not in fact in an open syllable. And in turn that means that a form like O.Ind. jajāna “was born”, which apparently does show the action of Brugmann’s law, is actually a false witness: in the Sanskrit perfect tense, the whole class of seṭ roots, en masse, acquired the shape of the aniṭ 3 sing. forms. There are also roots ending in a stop followed by a laryngeal, as *pleth₂-/*plt̥ h₂-

“spread, flatten”, from which Sanskrit pṛthú- “broad” masc. (= Avestan pərəθu-), pṛthivī- fem., Greek platús (zero grade); Skt. prathimán- “wideness” (full grade), Greek platamṓn “flat stone”. The laryngeal explains (a) the change of *t to *th in Proto-IndoIranian, (b) the correspondence between Greek -a-, Sanskrit -i- and no vowel in Avestan (Avestan pərəθwī “broad” fem. in two syllables vs Sanskrit pṛthivī- in three). Caution has to be used in interpreting data from Indic in particular. Sanskrit remained in use as a poetic, scientific, and classical language for many centuries, and the multitude of inherited patterns of alternation of obscure motivation (such as the division into seṭ and aniṭ roots) provided models for coining new forms on the "wrong" patterns. There are many forms like tṛṣita- “thirsty” and tániman- “slendernes”, that is, seṭ formations to to unequivocally aniṭ roots; and conversely aniṭ forms like píparti “fills”, pṛta- “filled”, to securely seṭ roots (cf. the ‘real’ past participle, pūrṇá-). Sanskrit preserves the effects of laryngeal phonology with wonderful clarity, but looks upon the historical linguist with a threatening eye: for even in Vedic Sanskrit, the evidence has to be weighed carefully with due concern for the antiquity of the forms and the overall texture of the data. Stray laryngeals can be found in isolated or seemingly isolated forms; here the threeway Greek reflexes of syllabic *h₁, *h₂, *h₃ are particularly helpful, as seen below.

• *ḥ1 in Greek ánemos “wind” (cf. Latin animus “breath, spirit; anger”, Vedic

aniti “breathes”) < *anə- “breathe; blow” (now *h₂enh₁-). Perhaps also Greek 479

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

híeros “mighty, super-human; divine; holy”, cf. Sanskrit iṣirá- “vigorous, energetic”. • *ḥ2 in Greek patḗr “father” = Sanskrit pitár-, Old English fæder, Gothic fadar, Latin pater. Also *megḥ₂ “big” neut. > Greek méga, Sanskrit máhi.

• *ḥ3 in Greek árotron “plow” = Welsh aradr, Old Norse arðr, Lithuanian

árklas.

The Greek forms ánemos and árotron are particularly valuable because the verb roots in question are extinct in Greek as verbs. This means that there is no possibility of some sort of analogical interference, as for example happened in the case of Latin arātrum “plow”, whose shape has been distorted by the verb arāre “to plow” (the exact cognate to the Greek form would have been *aretrum). It used to be standard to explain the root vowels of Greek thetós, statós, dotós “put, stood, given” as analogical. Most scholars nowadays probably take them as original, but in the case of “wind” and “plow”, the argument can’t even come up. Regarding Greek híeros, the pseudo-participle affix *-ro- is added directly to the verb root, so *isḥ1-ro- > *isero- > *ihero- > híeros (with regular throwback of the aspiration to the beginning of the word), and Sanskrit iṣirá-. There seems to be no question of the existence of a root *ejsh- “vigorously move/cause to move”. If the thing began with a laryngeal, and most scholars would agree that it did, it would have to be *h1-, specifically; and that’s a problem. A root of the shape *h1ejsh1- is not possible. Indo-European had no roots of the type *mem-, *tet-, *dhredh-, i.e., with two copies of the same consonant. But Greek attests an earlier (and rather more widely-attested) form of the same meaning, híaros. If we reconstruct *h1ejsh2-, all of our problems are solved in one stroke. The explanation for the híeros/híaros business has long been discussed, without much result; laryngeal theory now provides the opportunity for an explanation which did not exist before, namely metathesis of the two laryngeals. It’s still only a guess, but it’s a much simpler and more elegant guess than the guesses available before. The syllabic *ḥ2 in PIH *pḥ2ter- “father” is not really isolated. The evidence is clear that the kinship affix seen in “mother, father” etc. was actually *-h2ter-. The laryngeal syllabified after a consonant (thus Greek patḗr, Latin pater, Sanskrit pitár-; Greek thugátēr, Sanskrit duhitár- “daughter”) but lengthened a preceding vowel (thus say Indo-European Language Association

Appendix II: Proto-Indo-European Phonology

Latin māter “mother”, frāter “brother”) — even when the “vowel” in question was a syllabic resonant, as in Sanskrit yātaras “husbands’ wives” < *jn̥̄t- < *jn̥-h₂ter-).

LARYNGEALS IN MORPHOLOGY

Like any other consonant, Laryngeals feature in the endings of verbs and nouns and in derivational morphology, the only difference being the greater difficulty of telling what’s going on. Indo-Iranian, for example, can retain forms that pretty clearly reflect a laryngeal, but there is no way of knowing which one. The following is a rundown of laryngeals in Proto-Indo-European morphology. *h1 is seen in the instrumental ending (probably originally indifferent to number, like English expressions of the type by hand and on foot). In Sanskrit, feminine i- and ustems have instrumentals in -ī, -ū, respectively. In the Rigveda, there are a few old astems (PIE o-stems) with an instrumental in -ā; but even in that oldest text the usual ending is -enā, from the n-stems. Greek has some adverbs in -ē, but more important are the Mycenaean forms like e-repa-te “with ivory” (i.e. elephantē? -ě?) The marker of the neuter dual was *-ih, as in Sanskrit bharatī “two carrying ones (neut.)”, nāmanī “two names”, yuge “two yokes” (< yuga-i? *yuga-ī?). Greek to the rescue: the Homeric form ósse “the (two) eyes” is manifestly from *h₃ekw-ih1 (formerly

*okw-ī) via fully-regular sound laws (intermediately *okwje).

*-eh1- derives stative verb senses from eventive roots: PIE *sed- “sit (down)”: *sed-eh1“be in a sitting position” (> Proto-Italic *sed-ē-je-mos “we are sitting” > Latin sedēmus). It is clearly attested in Celtic, Italic, Germanic (the Class IV weak verbs), and BaltoSlavic, with some traces in Indo-Iranian (In Avestan the affix seems to form pasthabitual stems). It seems likely, though it is less certain, that this same *-h1 underlies the nominativeaccusative dual in o-stems: Sanskrit vṛkā, Greek lúkō “two wolves”. (The alternative ending -āu in Sanskrit cuts a small figure in the Rigveda, but eventually becomes the standard form of the o-stem dual.) *-h1s- derives desiderative stems as in Sanskrit jighāṃsati “desires to slay” < *gwhigwhṇ-h2s-e-ti- (root *gwhen-, Sanskrit han- “slay”). This is the source of Greek future 481

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

tense formations and (with the addition of a thematic suffix *-je/o-) the Indo-Iranian one as well: bhariṣyati “will carry” < *bher-ḥ1s-je-ti. *-jeh1-/*-ih1- is the optative suffix for root verb inflections, e.g. Latin (old) siet “may he be”, sīmus “may we be”, Sanskrit syāt “may he be”, and so on. *h2 is seen as the marker of the neuter plural: *-ḥ2 in the consonant stems, *-eh2 in the vowel stems. Much leveling and remodeling is seen in the daughter languages that preserve any ending at all, thus Latin has generalized *-ā throughout the noun system (later regularly shortened to -a), Greek generalized -ǎ < *-ḥ2. The categories “masculine/feminine” plainly did not exist in the most original form of Proto-Indo-European, and there are very few noun types which are formally different in the two genders. The formal differences are mostly to be seen in adjectives (and not all of them) and pronouns. Interestingly, both types of derived feminine stems feature *h2: a type that is patently derived from the o-stem nominals; and an ablauting type showing alternations between *-jeh2- and *-ih2-. Both are peculiar in having no actual marker for the nominative singular, and at least as far as the *-eh2- type, two things seem clear: it is based on the o-stems, and the nom.sg. is probably in origin a neuter plural. (An archaic trait of Indo-European morpho-syntax is that plural neuter nouns construe with singular verbs, and quite possibly *jugeh2 was not so much “yokes” in our sense, but “yokage; a harnessing-up”.) Once that much is thought of, however, it is not easy to pin down the details of the “ā-stems” in the Indo-European languages outside of Anatolia, and such an analysis sheds no light at all on the *-jeh2-/*-ih2- stems, which (like the *eh2-stems) form feminine adjective stems and derived nouns (e.g. Sanskrit devī- “goddess” from deva“god”) but unlike the “ā-stems” have no foundation in any neuter category. *-eh2- seems to have formed factitive verbs, as in *new-eh2- “to renew, make new again”, as seen in Latin novāre, Greek neáō and Hittite ne-wa-aḫ-ḫa-an-t- (participle) all “renew” but all three with the pregnant sense of “plow anew; return fallow land to cultivation”. *-h2- marked the 1st person singular, with a somewhat confusing distribution: in the thematic active (the familiar -ō ending of Greek and Latin, and Indo-Iranian -ā(mi)), and also in the perfect tense (not really a tense in PIE): *-h2e as in Greek oîda "I know" < *wojd-h2e. It is the basis of the Hittite ending -ḫḫi, as in da-aḫ-ḫi “I take” < *-ḫa-i Indo-European Language Association

Appendix II: Proto-Indo-European Phonology

(original *-ḫa embellished with the primary tense marker with subsequent smoothing of the diphthong). *-eh3 may be tentatively identified in a “directive case”. No such case is found in IndoEuropean noun paradigms, but such a construct accounts for a curious collection of Hittite forms like ne-pi-ša “(in)to the sky”, ták-na-a “to, into the ground”, a-ru-na “to the sea”. These are sometimes explained as o-stem datives in -a < *-ōj, an ending clearly attested in Greek and Indo-Iranian, among others, but there are serious problems with such a view, and the forms are highly coherent, functionally. And there are also appropriate adverbs in Greek and Latin (elements lost in productive paradigms sometimes survive in stray forms, like the old instrumental case of the definite article in English expressions like the more the merrier): Greek ánō “upwards”, kátō “downwards”, Latin quō “whither?”, eō “to that place”; and perhaps even the Indic preposition/preverb â “to(ward)” which has no satisfactory competing etymology. (These forms must be distinguished from the similar-looking ones formed to the ablative in *-ōd and with a distinctive “fromness” sense: Greek ópō “whence, from where”.)

PRONUNCIATION Considerable debate still surrounds the pronunciation of the laryngeals and various arguments have been given to pinpoint their exact place of articulation. Firstly the effect these sounds have had on adjacent phonemes is well documented. The evidence from Hittite and Uralic is sufficient to conclude that these sounds were “guttural” or pronounced rather back in the buccal cavity. The same evidence is also consistent with the assumption that they were fricative sounds (as opposed to approximants or stops), an assumption which is strongly supported by the behaviour of laryngeals in consonant clusters. The assumption that *h1 is a glottal stop [ʔ] is still very widespread. A glottal stop would however be unlikely to be reflected as a fricative in Uralic borrowings, as appears to be the case, for example in the word lehti < *lešte <= PIE *bhlh1-to. If, as some evidence suggests, there were two *h1 sounds, then one may have been the glottal stop [ʔ] and the other may have been the h sound [h] of English “hat”.

483

A GRAMMAR OF MODERN INDO-EUROPEAN

Rasmussen suggests a consonantal realization for *h1 as [h] with a vocalic allophone [ɘ]. This is supported by the closeness of [ɘ] to [e] (with which it coalesces in Greek), its failure (unlike *h2 and *h3) to create an auxiliary vowel in Greek and Tocharian when it occurs between a semivowel and a consonant, and the typological likelihood of a [h] given the presence of aspirated consonants in PIE. From what is known of such phonetic conditioning in contemporary languages, notably Semitic languages, *h2 (the “a-colouring” laryngeal) could have been a pharyngeal or epiglottal fricative such as [ħ], [ ʕ], [ʜ], or [ʢ]. Pharyngeal/epiglottal consonants (like the Arabic letter ‫( ح‬ħ) as in Muħammad) often cause a-coloring in the Semitic languages. Rasmussen suggests a consonantal realization for *h2 as [x], with a vocalic allophone [ɐ]. Likewise it is generally assumed that *h3 was rounded (labialized) due to its o-coloring effects. It is often taken to be voiced based on the perfect form *pi-bh3- from the root *peh3 "drink". Based on the analogy of Arabic, some linguists have assumed that *h3 was also pharyngeal/epiglottal [ʕw ~ ʢw] like Arabic ‫( ع‬ayin, as in Arabic mu‫ع‬allim = “teacher”) plus labialization, although the assumption that it was velar [ɣw] is probably more common. (The reflexes in Uralic languages could be the same whether the original phonemes were velar or pharyngeal.)
