Abstract:

Comparative-Historical Yeniseian Dictionary
Volume I (A-Ph)
 
Edward J. Vajda & Heinrich Werner
 
The present work is a first attempt to create a comparative-historical
Yeniseian dictio-nary that is readily accessible to English speakers. It
includes not only interpretations by the authors, but also observations and
commentaries made previously by others who have published results pertaining
to Yeniseian etymology or lexical history. In addition to published lexical
data, the authors have also incorporated the results of the latest fieldword
on Ket. Dictionary entries include both modern forms attested in a single
Yeniseian language as well as reconstructed protoforms representing an older
stage of Yeniseian as supported by the extant comparative material. Each
proto-form is marked as belonging to one of the following levels:
 
Pre-Proto-Yeniseian (PPY), Proto-Yeniseian (PY), Proto-Keto-Yugh (PKY),
Proto-Kotto-Assan (PKA), Proto-Arino-Pumpokol (PAP), Old Ket (OKet), Old Yugh
(OYugh). The listing of verb forms in Yeniseian languages presents a special
set of problems. Because Yeniseian finite verb forms are build according to a
formulaic stem pattern, entries involving finite verbs include the lexical
formula used to build the given verb. The agreement patterns and tense-mood
classes reflected in the verb formulas are discussed at length in publications
by one of the authors (notably Vajda 2001, but also including later
publications).
