Abstract: (548 Views)
Khalaj language is an endangered and independent branch of Turkic languages and is spoken in some villages in the center of Iran. According to researchers, the study of Khalaj language is very important because it preserves the linguistic features of Proto-Turkic. The present study provides an overview of encoding two grammatical case markers: comitative and instrumental, in Khalaj language based on typological approaches. The corpus of study consists of available data in Iran's linguistic atlas (ILA) which have been gathered based on the questionnaire prepared for this atlas. The data belongs to 16 villages in Qom province and 4 villages in Markazi province. The corpus of research includes 100 sentences which are analyzed based on the theoretical framework. According to the analyzed data, it is concluded that there is the same marker for encoding the different cases, i.e., comitative and Instrumental. Khalaj language employs the identity strategy for encoding this marker which is a postposition and attaches to the head of noun phrases.
