| Summary: | <p><strong>THE SIMPLIFICATION OF THE MASCULINE DECLENSION IN THE EASTERN LITHUANIAN </strong><strong>(UTENA) </strong><strong>DIALECT</strong></p><p><em>Summary</em></p><p>The article deals with morphological features of the Eastern Lithuanian (Utena) dialect of the Lithuanian language. The stems of the masculine declension <em>a</em>, <em>ia, u, iu </em>are reviewed, and the causes for their interlacement are explained. The given material shows that the interlacement of stems occurs only in one direction: the non-productive <em>u, iu </em>stems are changed to productive <em>a, ia </em>stems (only separate words can be changed in the opposite way). Therefore, we come to the logical conclusion that the nouns with <em>u, iu </em>stems are older than adjacent <em>a-, ia </em>-stem forms.</p> |
