General surveys -- pt. 2. Case studies.This paper analyzes a construction involving genitives in Northern Akhvakh, the floating genitive construction. In this construction, a genitive NP is related to a noun in S or P role but is not included in the NP headed by this noun. The floating genitive identifies the personal sphere of its referent as the frame within which the predication expressed by the clause holds. Functionally, this construction combines the pragmatic motivations of framing constructions with the semantic effects common to other types of external possession constructions. Parallels are proposed between the floating genitives of Northern Akhvakh and functionally comparable constructions found in other languages. This construction illustrates the development of an uncommon type of external possessors in a language family in which external possession has so far been considered relatively marginal.Grammar, Comparative and generalPossessivesGrammar, Comparative and generalSyntaxGrammar, Comparative and generalWord formationCase grammarGrammar, Comparative and generalPossessives.Grammar, Comparative and generalSyntax.Grammar, Comparative and generalWord formation.Case grammar.415/.5Carlier Anne1801537Verstraete Jean-Christophe1976-1092381MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910965863903321The genitive4346816UNINA
