The linguistic characteristics of Tatar paroemiae

Abstract

This scientific article examines the linguistic (lexical and grammatical) characteristics of Tatar paroemiae, which are a prized source for studying linguistic level interrelations. Paroemiae incorporate unique lexical forms, rich grammatical material and types of syntactic constructions, speech patterns, and word combinations, which are not registered in written monuments. This explains the topicality of thorough linguistic research into Tatar paroemiae. The linguistic study of the language of Tatar paroemiae provides valuable material for typological generalizations, which enable us to identify the general and the specific in the structural-semantic organization of paroemiological units, which are manifested in specific lingual constructions.
