Abstract:

This volume contains thirteen contributions on the origin of the feminine
gender and its relation to the collective in the Indo-European parent
language. The Indo-European daughter languages have got mostly a three-gender
system, however the early attested Anatolian languages owned only two genders.
In this respect, it is debatable whether the feminine gender is primary or
arose secondarily from another morphological category. Due to special
morphological and morphosyntactic phenomena it is also questionable whether
the neuter plural of the individual languages continues an inflectional
category or it was rather grammaticalized from an original word formation
category collective. The authors suggest different approaches on the question
of the relationship between feminine and collective.
