Compound Morphology: Examples

  • Deverbal nouns have only syntactic paraphrases:

– иечеие (‘herbcuring’, curing bв herbs) – * иеу (*‘herbcure.1PERS.SG’, to cure with herbs) and – еу ии (‘cure.1PERS.SG аith herbs’, to cure аith herbs)

  • Deverbal nouns have also verb compound paraphrases:

– ъхе (‘handwaving’, gesticulating), – ъх (‘handаave.1PERS.SG’, gesticulate) and – х ъ (‘аave аith hand’, gesticulate).
