Abstract:
Choice between imperative forms in contemporary Hungarian dramas:
A historical background
In Hungarian, both in the subjective and in the objective conjugation, two
forms are used in imperative second person singular: a shorter one and a
longer one, for example várj: várjál, várd: várjad ´wait´. The choice
between these forms is influenced on one hand by morphological features of
the verbs, and on the other hand, by the nature of the speech act expressed by
the imperative form. The proportion of occurrences of shorter and longer
forms can be different in the subjective and objective conjugations; in the
subjective conjugation, the use of -ik verbs can also be different. The nature
of the speech act primarily refers here to intensity; it refers to a "request
type" and "command type" of directive. There is also a third type; the use of
conjunctive in some subordinated clauses, induced by a key word or by the
content ofthe main clause.
The current paper analyses the choice between imperative forms in eight
contemporary Hungarian dramas. It is a new link in the chain of a diachronic
investigation. The author´s aim is to reve al the history of choice between
shorter and longer fonns on the basis of dramatic texts, by examining
synchronic sections and making a diachronic comparison. Five such
segments have been analysed so far, from about 1770 until the end of 20th
century. The dramas analysed were published in 2009-2010.
Drama, as a genre that uses dialogue, has been and continues to be a
favoured subject for analysis, because it is stylistically comparable to natural
spoken language, which means that imperative fonns can be easily found. In
addition, the paper deals with the role of the idiolects of the playwrights. The
study also includes statistical analysis.
