INTRODUCTION TO EUROPEAN PARTITIVES IN COMPARISON
Ingrian,"6 Veps," Karelian,"§ and Finnish, Meünkieli, and Kven?? in separate
chapters dedicated to these languages. Abondolo and Valijárvi" also devote a
chapter to Finnic in general”! in addition to North and Standard Estonian” and
Vôro South Estonian, which represent the Finnic languages.” Information on
partitive case marking and its basic functions is provided in each of these
chapters. However, most of the partitives of Finnic are more accurately described
as pseudo-partitives due to their evolved meanings, which diverge significantly
from the proper partitive concept of “X of the Y” or “part of the X” The Saamic
morphological partitives as discussed in the source are mostly related to certain
numeral phrases and thus also pseudo-partitives.
Previous sections of the present paper detailed some evidence that the proper
partitive concept is rather expressed by structures that involve separative cases,”
adpositions, and possessive suffixes in most Uralic languages, while some Uralic
languages display also special morphemes that relate to partitivity of this kind,
like the Hungarian -ik (see Section 3 above). Nonetheless, chapters on
definiteness,” information structure,” person marking,” possessive structures
