The article includes analysis of sentences with possessive dative in Croatian and their Polish equivalents, investigating the similarities and differences of uses of those linguistic elements. I point out especially such factors as semantics of the possessum noun and verbs which connect possessor with possessum. Ialso note some differences on the stylistic level.

In the framework of the natural morphology (The types of homomorphism; J. Dolník, 2005) and cognitive linguistics (the dative case as the grammatical exponent of the target person’s role; E. Dąbrowska, 1997), the paper deals with the dative case in early speech development (during the first 3 years of child’s life). The study presents the results of the research into grammatical forms, case meanings and pragmatic functions. The key question is this: which dative case structures children acquire preferentially? The research is based on the combination of qualitative (audiovisual recordings of three children, coding of transcripts) and quantitative (1065 parental assessments) methods. The research leads to conclusions on three levels: (a) The form: grammatical forms of the dative case with segmental and defective homomorphism are typical for preferentially acquired forms. (b) The semantics: dative of benefit and dative of direction can be interpreted as case meanings that create the core of the dative case’s early semantics. (c) The pragmatics: children use the dative case preferentially in utterances with pragmatic function: con-situational information, disagreement, answer, will and challenge. It means that the dative case is primarily used in the developmentally oldest functions. The research broadens the understanding of speech ontogenesis and contributes to language explanation that is compatible with the process of its acquisition.

In Bulgarian dialects across the linguistic continuum, relict (residual) forms of the nominal declension continue to function, which is one of the most essential features of the Old Bulgarian morphosyntax. Nowadays, grammatical cases allow us to assume that there are a number of Bulgarian dialects that have preserved fragments of old grammatical systems. The methodology of the study was chosen at the model level and limited to one particular pattern of the dative case. This is the pattern of the dative case for purpose as an indirect object in verbs meaning 'give' and 'do someone good'. The patterns are mainly two types: adverbial and adnominal. They are found primarily in the southeastern and southwestern Bulgarian dialects, which are the most archaic, but examples of their spread to the northwest are also given.

Evolution of ergativity in the Western Hindi

Alexander A. Sigorskiy. Evolution of ergativity in the Western Hindi. The Poznań Society for the Advancement of Arts and Sciences, PL ISSN 0079-4740, pp. 41-58 The early stage of the Western Hindi vernaculars demonstrates two types of typology competing with each other - Nominative typology and Split Ergative typology. Ergative typology includes a number of ergative strategies existing in different vernaculars and in the one and the same vernacular as well. In the course of standardization of Modern Standard Hindi (MSH) Split Ergative Typology wins. The main features of Old Hindi case system are: 1) Old Hindi demonstrates the same, dative case marking both for Subject (Agent) and Object (Patient), whereas MSH has differentiated these case markers, 2) Old Hindi has two types of agreement - (a) only with unmarked S/O and (b) both with unmarked and marked S/O, while MSH allows only the first one.

W artykule przedstawiono empiryczną metodologię badania struktury semantycznej trzech węgierskich sufiksów: -nak/-nek (celownik), -hoz/-hez/-höz (allatyw) i -nál/-nél (adesyw). Sufiksy przypadków mają szeroką polisemiczną strukturę semantyczną, która do tej pory była najczęściej badana z punktu widzenia lingwistów w literaturze węgierskiej. W przeciwieństwie do poprzednich badań, obecne zadanie sortowania (por. Sandra i Rice 1995) opiera się na teście wykonywanym przez użytkowników języka. Informatorami było 25 rodzimych użytkowników języka, których zadaniem było posortowanie 3 zestawów po 20 zdań, z których każde zawierało jeden wyraz z jednym z trzech sufiksów. Zostali poproszeni o utworzenie dowolnych grup na podstawie znaczenia sufiksów. Następnie wyniki zostały poddane hierarchicznej analizie skupień za pomocą programu Past, który zilustrował bardziej typowe pary i podobieństwa w dendrogramie. Wykresy na dendrogramach pokazują, które znaczenia są bliższe, a które mniej podobne. Metoda ta może być użytecznym narzędziem do poznania sieci polisemicznej opartej na intuicji użytkowników języka.

This paper presents an empirical methodology for examining the semantic structure of three Hungarian suffixes: -nak/-nek (dative), -hoz/-hez/-höz (allative) and -nál/-nél (adessive). Case suffixes have a wide polysemic semantic structure that so far has been mostly examined from a linguistic point of view in the Hungarian literature. In contrast with the former investigations, the present sorting task (cf. Sandra and Rice 1995) is based on a test performed by language users. Informants were 25 native speakers whose task was to sort 3 packs of 20 sentences that contained one word with one of the three case suffixes each. They were asked to make arbitrary groups based on the meaning of the suffixes. Then the results were put to a hierarchical clustering analysis by the software Past, which illustrated the more typical pairings and similarities on a dendrogram. The graphs on the dendrograms show us which meanings are closer in sense, and which ones are less similar. The method may be a useful tool for learning something about a polysemic network based on the language users’ intuition.
