Abstract

This study investigates the types of conditional constructions found in the Indo-Aryan language Odia and studies the morpho-syntactic structure and linear function of it. In Odia, Conditional constructions consist of a main clause (adoposis), and a subordinate clause (protasis). It is usually protasis, which functions as antecedent, and adoposis functions as consequent, forming a single sentence, in which consequent is referentially linked to its antecedent by anaphoric relation. Odia Conditional clause is marked in one of the various morpho-syntactic ways: lexically by 4 conjunctive morphemes like, jad̪i ‘if’/ ‘whether’, manekara ‘supposing’, natʃet̪ ‘otherwise’, kāɭe ‘in case’ or grammatically by a bound morpheme ‑ile added with the verbal form as suffix, in the protasis, or by a je…se correlative phrase ‘as long as’. This paper tries to formalize such relation of conditional clauses and finds that a single conditional operator can map with different conditional scopes for denoting different types of conditional meanings.
对奥蒂亚语条件结构的描述性研究
本研究调查了印度-雅利安语奥迪亚语中的条件结构类型,并研究了其形态句法结构和线性功能。在奥蒂亚语中,条件结构由一个主句("optosis")和一个从句("protasis")组成。通常情况下,protasis 起前句的作用,而 adoposis 起后句的作用,形成一个句子,其中后句通过拟喻关系与前句建立指代联系。奥迪亚语条件状语从句有多种形态句法标记方式:在词法上,通过 4 个连接语素,如 jad̪i "如果"/"是否"、manekara "假设"、natʃet̪"否则"、kāɭe "万一",或在语法上,通过在原语中以动词形式为后缀添加结合语素 -ile 或通过 je...se 关联短语 "只要"。本文试图将条件从句的这种关系形式化,并发现一个条件运算符可以映射出不同的条件范围,以表示不同类型的条件意义。
