From Utterances to Speech Acts

By Mikhail Kissine

"Kissine offers a new theory of speech acts which is philosophically sophisticated and builds on work in cognitive science, formal semantics, and linguistic typology. This highly readable, brilliant essay is a major contribution to the field."

--François Recanati, Institut Jean-Nicod

Subject Language: Tajik
Uzbek, Northern
Abstract: A large number of linguistic features in Tajik, an Iranian language, are considered to have emerged or have been retained under the influence of Uzbek, the Turkic language with which Tajik has been in contact for many centuries.

In this paper, I focus on one linguistic feature in Tajik and try to demonstrate that it has emerged as a result of prolonged language contact between Tajik and Uzbek.
