Infinitival relatives in North Saami and Finnish \u2013 A semantic and syntactic comparison<\/em><\/h3>\nNorth Saami and Finnish are related to each other as can be seen in the semantic and syntactic structure of the languages. They also share a common historical background. Here I have compared the infinitival relatives in Saami and Finnish. An infinitival relative consists of a relative word and an infinitive verb. The relative word can be a relative pronoun, i.e. mii<\/em>, gii<\/em> in Saami and joka<\/em>, kuka<\/em>, mik\u00e4<\/em> (\u2019which, who, what\u2019) in Finnish or a pronominal adverb, i.e. goas<\/em>, go<\/em>, gosa<\/em>, gos<\/em> in Saami, and jolloin<\/em>, jonne<\/em>, joten<\/em>, milloin<\/em> (\u2019when, where\u2019) in Finnish. The relative word is never in its basic form in my research material, because a basic form would require verb congruence: piika, jonka kanssa jutella\/ biig\u00e1 geainna h\u00e1le\u0161tit<\/em> \u2019maid with whom to talk\u2019 vs. piika, joka juttelee\/ biig\u00e1, gii h\u00e1le\u0161ta<\/em> \u2019maid who talks\u2019.<\/p>\nThe infinitival relative is grammatically either a modifier of the antecedent e.g. Mus lea sadji<\/strong><\/em> (antecedent) gosa mannat<\/strong>\/ Minulla on paikka<\/strong><\/em> (antecedent) jonne menn\u00e4<\/em><\/strong> \u2019I have a place where to go\u2019 or an independent sentence constituent e.g. Mus lea gosa mannat<\/strong>\/ Minulla on minne menn\u00e4<\/strong><\/em> \u2019I have (a place) where to go\u2019. In my research material the infinitival relative can act as a modifier of a subject, an object or a predicate, and the independent sentence constituent can act as a subject or an object. When the infinitival relative is a modifier of the antecedent, it seems to be pragmatically obligatory: — \u010duo\u010d\u010duimet r\u00e1iddus vuordimin beavdegea\u017ei, mas boradit<\/strong><\/em> (RPL 1994: 23) \u2019we stood in line waiting for the end of the table, where to eat\u2019. The word order is constant: relative word before infinitive. An infinitival relative never begins the sentence; it always follows the predicate.<\/p>\nThe frequency of infinitival relatives is higher in Saami (n = 26) than in Finnish (n = 14). In Finnish the context of occurrence is mostly negative (10\/14), whereas in Saami the frequency is equal (13\/13). Finally, the infinitival relative is very similar in both languages. Mainly it carries the proposition of the sentence but sometimes also an affective meaning.<\/p>\n
