Abstract
The study of Armenian toponyms constitutes a relatively underexplored and insufficiently addressed domain within the field of Armenian Studies. Unfortunately, the seminal works by Joseph Marquart (1901) and, especially, Heinrich Hübschmann (1904), supplemented later with insightful publications by Kapancyan (1940; 1956), hitherto remain the sole substantial contributions to the realm of Armenian toponymy. Subsequent to that period and up to the present day, only sporadic researches have been done on this subject. The present paper aims at providing a brief overview of the general outlines of the Armenian toponymic system.
亚美尼亚地名的研究是亚美尼亚研究领域中一个相对未被充分探索和处理的领域。不幸的是,Joseph Marquart(1901),特别是Heinrich h bschmann(1904)的开创性作品,后来由Kapancyan(1940)补充了富有洞察力的出版物;1956年),至今仍是对亚美尼亚地名领域的唯一重大贡献。从那以后,直到今天,关于这个问题的研究只是零星的。本文的目的是提供亚美尼亚地名系统的一般轮廓的简要概述。
