Koeln (Cologne) : Universalienprojekt Institut für Sprachwissenschaft der Universität Köln, 1983. — 63 S. — (Akup Nr. 51, distributed to linguists and universities directly from the Institute).
Research work from 1983 in the typological linguistic research project UNITYP (Universalien und Typologie) under Prof H.J. Seiler, University of Cologne, to investigate recurrent linguistic functions and continua in the world's languages, mainly to search for linguistic universals and to find ways to adequately describe linguistic variation among different languages.
This contribution describes aspects of subject-object-verb constructions, transitivity and voice in Mansi, Nenets and Yukaghir in an original functional perspective, using original texts in these languages to find parameters of variation. Many linguistic terms used here were experimental, because this Akup (research paper) was a first step in the domain of noun-verb-combination to be studied by our UNITYP group.
