Communication systems with the meaning of affirmation and negation in the Tatar language

Abstract

The article deals with one of the most controversial problems of Turkology, the problem of indivisible syntax, which manifests itself at the level of a simple and complex sentence. The relevance of the research is due to the fact that the linguistic analysis of the structure and semantics of communication makes it possible to substantiate the status of indivisible sentences in the syntactic system of the Tatar language and to identify the structural-semantic, grammatical, pragmatic aspects of indivisible sentences. The paper analyzes emotional and evaluative communicemes with affirmative and negative semantics in the Tatar language. The research material is semantic and emotionally expressive meanings of communicemes. The aim of the work is to identify and describe the most commonly used communicemes with affirmative and negative semantics in the Tatar language. The object of the study is the communicemes from the works of Tatar fiction, obtained by the continuous sampling method. The corpus of examples is represented by speech units of an indivisible structure, which we refer to the class of communicemes, that is, non-predicative units of syntax. The work revealed 15 affirmative and 10 negative communicemes in various lexical and grammatical variations. It has been established that communicemes with positive and negative semantics arise spontaneously in speech and are an expressive reaction of the speaker, accompanied by the intonation of delight, joy, surprise, anger, threats, etc. These syntactic units, being set phrases, express national specifics, therefore they are difficult to perceive for native speakers of other languages.
