Animacy, definiteness, and case in Cappadocian and other Asia Minor Greek dialects
View through CrossRef
AbstractThis article discusses the relation between animacy, definiteness, and case in Cappadocian and several other Asia Minor Greek dialects. Animacy plays a decisive role in the assignment of Greek and Turkish nouns to the various Cappadocian noun classes. The development of morphological definiteness is due to Turkish interference. Both features are important for the phenomenon of differential object marking which may be considered one of the most distinctive features of Cappadocian among the Greek dialects.
