Verbal inflectional classes in Soikkola Ingrian

This paper analyses verbal inflection in the Soikkola dialect of the Ingrian language. Ingrian has a rich morphology and is abundant with stem alternations. In order to describe such complicated system, one needs to elaborate a detailed but easy-to-use system of inflectional classes. We suggest a number of principles for distinguishing inflectional classes, and apply them to the Ingrian material. Our paper describes morphological categories of the Ingrian verb, gives an overview of the stem alternations, and presents a system of inflectional classes based on the distribution of diﬀerent stem types in the paradigm. The proposed description allows building a full paradigm of Ingrian verbs. The research is based on 450 paradigms recorded from the speakers of the Soikkola dialect in 2006–2019. The paper provides ample illustrative material: examples of verbal paradigms representing diﬀerent inflectional classes.

Keywords
