Abstract:
The monograph provides a comprehensive discussion and analysis of the
systematic correspondences discovered in establishing genetic relationship of
the language isolate Burushaski with Indo-European at the phonological,
grammatical and lexical level. It consists of nine etymological studies. At
the grammatical level comparison is made of the pronominal systems, the
nominal systems in general, the adjectival, numeral, as well as the verbal
systems. It analyses correspondences in the semantic fields of anatomical
parts, kinship terms, shepherd vocabulary, plant names and other etymologies
of the Burushaski inherited Indo-European lexicon which are correlated with
the various Indo-European branches, in particular with the ancient and modern
Balkan languages. The specific lexical closeness of Burushaski within
Indo-European with the Phrygian language is examined in separate chapters.
The volume makes a contribution to the understanding of aspects of Burushaski
synchronic and historical phonology and the historical development of the
Burusho people.
It proposes that the Burushaski language should no longer be considered an
isolate, but rather a North-Western Indo-European language which at some stage
of its development was in contact with an agglutinative and ergative system
and was shaped in this language contact situation. .

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and
as such can receive donations through Indiana University Foundation. We
also collect donations via eLinguistics Foundation, a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization with the federal tax number 45-4211155. Either
way, the donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your
state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the
IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department
and sending us a form that the Indiana University Foundation fills in
and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
