Potential Confusion

I wrote earlier that Kashubian, like Polish, marks the “object” of verbs like “bëc” with the instrumental in the absence of “to.” However, I have seen some example sentences in one of my dictionaries that use the nominative where I would expect to see the instrumental. If anyone knows any further details about why this may be, I would love to know, but for now keep in mind that I may have been mistaken in my earlier assertion.

UPDATE: So I’ve now seen both the sentence “Jô jem kaszëba” (”kaszëba” here in the nominative) and the sentence “Më jesmë kaszëbama” (with kaszëbama in the instrumental) in the same grammar so my best guess so far is that the use of the instrumental with verbs of identity is restricted to the plural. That may be wrong though, so if anyone knows any native speakers (the last native speaker in my family died in 2011), please let me know!

Noges - Enez Rouz.

Off to Cardiff on a train in a sec, so i thought I’d upload this sweet, sweet Breton folk track, taken from a rare 1976 comp in support of a independent Brittany, Nothing but a metal harp and voice. Spooky Folky Dolky. I have no idea what the title means, but i guess Enez could be Island, and Rouz would be Red?, not sure..anyway… mwynhewch.

Northern Sami (davvisámegiella) is the most widely spoken Sami language. It is spoken by the indigenous Sami people in Finland, Norway, Sweden, and Russia. The number of Northern Sami speakers is estimated to be about 25,000. Northern Sami is a Uralic language and related to the Finnic languages (Finnish, Estonian, etc.).

Òdmianë Znankòwników- Declension of Adjectives

Declining adjectives in Kashubian is much like declining adjectives in polish but with slightly different forms. Below are charts of the most basic declension patterns. The first pattern is used for adjectives whose roots end in letters other than s, c, k, or z. To find the root I recommend removing the final vowel from the singular nominative. Then in situations where “ii” would occur just simplify it to “i.” In this way stem alterations should make a little more sense.

The second pattern is used for those adjectives whose roots end in s, c, or z. Note that “i” has been replaced with “y.”

Not all authors will obey this alternation, so here are the forms without it.

Finally here are the forms for adjectives with roots ending in k. Note the alternation of “k” and “cz.”

Note the comma in the masculine singular accusative in some of the above charts. This is to indicate, as in Polish, that the masculine singular nominative form is used for inanimate masculine singular accusatives, and the masculine singular genitive is used for animate masculine singular accusatives.

Just a heads up that my original post on personal pronouns originally had the charts for possessive pronouns, so if you want accurate charts you should see the new edited version.

Dosebné Zamiona- Possessive Pronouns

Possessive pronouns in Kashubian behave like adjectives in the first and second persons, and like genitive nouns in the third person. That is to say, that first and second person possessive pronouns agree with the nouns they modify in terms of number, gender, and case, whereas third person possessive pronouns do not change to agree with the nouns they modify, only to agree with the gender of the person to whom they refer. The exception to this is “swój,” which declines like a first/second person possessive, and means something like “my/ your/ his/ etc. own.” Below is the declension of the first, second, and “swój” pronouns, followed by the third person pronouns.

That may look like a lot of forms, but just remember that for the most part “mój,” “twój,” and “swój” have identical endings. The third person possessive pronouns are as follows:

His-    Jegò

Her-    Ji

It’s-    Jegò

Their- Jich

And there you have it, that’s all you need to know to use possessive pronouns to your heart’s desire!

Kaszëbsczé Słowôrze- Kashubian Dictionaries

There’s not much out there in the way of Kashubian dictionaries, but there are a few I really like. Below are links to them.

1. https://drive.google.com/a/umass.edu/file/d/1XeSsOIGKslislarAwzRLdG6OmYAnqxNb/view?usp=drive_web

A really great beginner’s dictionary! Not terribly comprehensive, but a great introduction to the basics, and beautifully illustrated.

2. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Tz99wxddqF1alnDjQRhDw5HIaRmWCRbD/view

Similar to the above, more of a textbook than a dictionary, but good for beginners!

3. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lfejHcZ9DVRWOo_iEWvSTcci1BvbgsBR/view

Okay so this one’s excellent... there’s one problem... thanks to a hacker, only A-M is available. Still very useful all the same!

4. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1q6uxp8qGcT4gQP9QTKb-Swr3frpX-zzr/view

A really comprehensive dictionary, but only Kashubian to Kashubian, so a bit inaccessible to the beginner.

5. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FSOj_o8LeVnZOuP-lxXzNxEPUnetExmC/view

Okay so this one is straight up just a textbook, but it’s great, so I’ll include it here anyway!
