| Summary: | There are three types of correlative clauses in Udihe which consist of: (a) interrogative-interrogative, (b) interrogative-demonstrative and (c) interrogative-Ø. Interestingly, these constructions are seen not only in other Tungusic languages but also in neighboring major languages such as Chinese and Russian. Some previous researches have pointed out the possibility that the correlative clauses in Tungusic languages resulted from the influence of Chinese and Russian. However, it is difficult to reach a conclusion since the study on correlative clauses of the Tungusic languages has not been fully carried out. This paper aims to compare each type of correlative clauses in Udihe with those of Russian and Chinese in syntactic level. In conclusion, it is proved that the correlative clauses of Udihe have both characteristics of those of Chinese and Russian as below. (a) interrogative-interrogative ⇔ Chinese (b) interrogative-demonstrative ⇔ Russian (c) interrogative- Ø ⇔ Chinese and Russian |
