Abstract: DOI: 10.24193/subbphilo.2020.1.18 Published Online: 2020-03-20 Published Print: 2020-03-20 pp. 263-274 VIEW PDF: FULL PDF Observations on the Realization
of the Morphological Opposition of Number in Neuter Nouns whose Root Ends in –e. The study aims to identify the main rules governing
the distribution of the etymological desinences for plural nouns (–e and
–uri), in order to establish the principles that should be applied in
the case of neuter nouns with the root ending in –e, a category of nouns
that has been little studied in the literature. As neologisms are borrowed from
other languages, this category is significantly enriched, becoming increasingly
fluctuant and heterogeneous. Since the previously formulated rules do not apply
consistently in the case of these nouns, the –e at the end of the root –
which could be confused with the homonymous plural desinence – is the only element
that imposes either the neutralisation of the number opposition (nume [name], index [index], faringe [pharynx], etc.), or its realisation exclusively by using
the desinence –uri (degradeuri
[colour gradients], café-frappé-uri
[frappé coffees], puzzle-uri [puzzles],
etc.).
Keywords: neuter gender, morphological opposition of
number, etymological desinences –e/–uri, neuter nouns with the root ending in –e.
