Звукоподражательные слова эвенского языка (для сравнительного анализа с другими алтайскими языками)

Abstract

This article is devoted to describing the onomatopoeic words of the Ėven language. The Ėven language is rich of the vocabulary which reflects the sounds of the nature, the singing and cries of birds, the howling of wolves, the growling of wild animals, the sounds produced by the nature such as thunder, the howling of wind. While studying this theme, we have found out the classification of onomatopoeic words of the Ėven language. Here we should say that this classification may not be complete. In the future, it may undergo changes due to the further work in studying the onomatopoeic words of the Ėven language. The separate onomatopoeic words of the Ėven language follow the phonetic norms of the Ėven language not always. In this regard they keep aloof. They are the Ėven native words notwithstanding it. One may suppose that this layer of vocabulary was closer to the Altaic commonality. During the work we have found out the following thing: some onomatopoeic words of the Ėven language are similar to the onomatopoeic words of the Sakha language (of the Turkic language family) by their phonetic and semantic signs. In order to demonstrate it, we have given the examples.
