Models of verbal stems combinations in modern armenian language

Abstract

Consequently, while summarizing the effects of study of compositions word-building patterns, formed by verbal stems, one can state that the verbal stems have quite flexible  word-building opportunities for formation of compound words and the new nouns and adjectives formed by them considerably enrich the word-stock of the Armenian language.As research showed the considerable part of stems, taking part in the word-building of the modern Armenian language were inherited to us from the ancient Armenian language (grabar). As for the verb stems of those morphological components in which the verb stem is a derivative, then   It should be noted that the verb stem in most cases isa compound stem, since verbs in rare cases serve as a complement to other parts of speech. There are also compound words in the Armenian language, the first component  which are the verb stem or participle . The models noun+verb, adjective+verb, adverb+verb, verb+noun are predominantly effective in the morphological models of the verbal stems. Compositions formed by these models in the process of transformation into syntactical combination can express subject and predicate, attributive-definite, object and circumstantial relations.   In  objective relations, many semantic groups can be distinguished.

1. Compound words, the first components of which are the names of products or objects: winemaker, butcher, lumberjack seller, etc.
2. Compound words, the first components of which are the names of various animals: shepherd, cowshed, cattle breeder, beekeeper and others.
3. Compound words, the first components of which are the names of celestial bodies: sunmeter, lunar rover, astronaut, etc.
4. Complications, the first components of which are concepts related to different areas of art: duduk player, singer, theater-goer, pianist, singer, actor, etc.
