Lesson 7

Let's recollect some grammatical rules that we have already learned.
We know the plural ending ք: դաս – դասք (lesson - lessons), բան – բանք (word - words)։
    We know that in the accusative case (mostly as a direct object) this ք changes to ս: դասք -դասս, բանք -բանս։
    We know that the preposition զ is used with the accusative case as a definite article: զդաս – զդասս (the lesson – the lessons), զբան - զբանս (the word – the words). Remember: these are used mostly as direct objects, not subjects.

**************

The Definite Article ն
For ALL cases of noun the definite article is ն (n), which is added to the word from the end.

nominative case - the subject of the sentence
գինի+ն - գինին (ginin / k'inin) - the wine
sing. - քահանայ, քահանայն (k'ahana, k'ahanayn) - priest, the priest
պատարագ, պատարագն (patarag, pataragən / badarak', badarak'ən)- sacrifice, the sacrifice
plur. - քահանայք, քահանայքն (k'ahanayk', k'ahanayk'ən) - priests, the priests
պատարագք, պատարագքն (pataragək', pataragk'ən / badarak'ək', badarak'k'ən) - sacrifices, the sacrifices

Word Combinations

We may say both:
1) գինի անոյշ (noun + adjective)
and
2) անոյշ գինի (adjective + noun)

When we need to add the preposition զ, in both structures զ is added to the first word:
զ+գինի անոյշ - զգինի անոյշ (әzgini / әzk'ini anuysh)
զ+անոյշ գինի - զանոյշ գինի (zanuysh gini / k'ini)

In plural, both words are usually in plural in the structure 1):
գինիք անոյշք (ginik' / k'inik' anuyshәk')
But in the structure 2) the first word (the adjective) remains singular:
անոյշ գինիք (anuysh ginik' / k'inik')

Ըմպել զանոյշ գինին եւ թողուլ զյոռին։
(Ըմպել զ+անոյշ գինի+ն եւ թողուլ զ+յոռի+ն։)

(әmpel / әmbel zanuysh ginin / k'inin yev tołul әzhor'in)

To drink the pleasant wine and to leave the bad one.
Ուտել հաց եւ ըմպել գինի։ To eat bread and to drink wine.

(utel / udel hac' yev әmpel / әmbel gini / k'ini )

Ուտել զհացն եւ ըմպել զգինին։ To eat the bread and to drink the wine.

(utel / udel әzhac'әn yev әmpel / әmbel әzginin / әzk'inin ) 

Հացն ի վերայ սեղանոյ է։ The bread is on the table (or altar).

(Hac'n i vera sełano e)

Քա՞ղցր է գինին այն թէ դառն։ Is that wine sweet or bitter?

(K'ałc'әr e ginin / k'inin ayn t'e dar'әn / t'ar'әn?)

Present Indicative Tense

Classical Armenian has only one tense to express the actions of the present. It is the present indicative.

To conjugate the verbs in this tense, we need to add the proper endings to the so-called present stem of the verb. The verb in Armenian has 2 stems - the present and the aorist. Now we need only the present stem, which is very easy to find. Just remove the ending of the infinitive and you will have the present stem. You remember, of course, that the infinitive has the following endings: -ել, -ել(իլ), -ալ, -ուլ, -ոլ.

ըմպել - ըմպ, հասանել - հասան
խաւսել (իլ) - խաւս, ուսանել (իլ) - ուսան
գնալ - գն, բառնալ - բառն
թողուլ - թող, առնուլ - առն

Do you remember the present short forms of the verb “to be”? They are also the endings of the present indicative tense for the verbs of the conjugation “ե” (that is, the verbs which end in “ել” in the infinitive).

Conjugation “ե”

Ըմպել - ըմպ

ըմպ+ եմ - ըմպեմ - I drink / am drinking (әmpem / әmbem)
ըմպ+ ես - ըմպես - you drink / are drinking (әmpes / әmbes)
ըմպ+ է - ըմպէ - he/she/it drinks / is drinking (әmpe / әmbe)
ըմպ+ եմք - ըմպեմք - we drink / are drinking (әmpemk' / әmbemk')
ըմպ+ էք - ըմպէք - you drink / are drinking (әmpek' / әmbek')
ըմպ+ են - ըմպեն - they drink / are drinking (әmpen / әmben)

Conjugation “ի” (that is, the verbs which end in “իլ” in the infinitive)

խաւսել / խաւսիլ (= խօսել/խօսիլ) - խաւս  
խաւս+ իմ - խաւսիմ - I speak / am speaking (xosim)
խաւս+ իս - խաւսիս - you speak / are speaking (xosis)
խաւս+ ի - խաւսի - he/she/it speaks / is speaking (xosi)
խաւս+ իմք - խաւսիմք - we speak / are speaking (xosimk')
խաւս+ իք - խաւսիք - you speak / are speaking (xosik')
խաւս+ ին - խաւսին - they speak / are speaking (xosin)

Conjugation “ա”

գնալ - գն

գն+ ամ - նամ - I go / am going (gәnam / k'әnam)
գն+ աս - գնաս - you go / are going (gәnas / k'әnas)
գն+ այ - գնայ - he/ she/ it goes / is going (gәna / k'әna)
գն+ ամք - գնամք - we go / are going (gәnamk' / k'әnamk')
գն+ այք - գնայք - you go / are going (gәnayk' / k'әnayk')
գն+ ան - գնան - they go / are going (gәnan / k'әnan)

Conjugation “ու”

առնուլ - առն

առն+ ում - առնում - I take / am taking (ar'num)
առն+ ուս - առնուս - you take / are taking (ar'nus)
առն+ ու - առնու - he/she/it takes / is taking (ar'nu)
առն+ ումք - առնումք - we take / are taking (ar'numk')
առն+ ուք - առնուք - you take / are taking (ar'nuk')
առն+ ուն - առնուն - they take / are taking (ar'nun)

If you might notice, in all these groups or conjugations the endings of the present indicative are themselves built of the letters ե, ի, ա, ու + մ (for the I person singular), մք (I person plural), ս (II singular), ք (II plural), nothing or է, յ (III singular), ն (III plural). 

The negative forms are made by adding ոչ or չ- to the verbs, for example: ոչ առնում // չառնում (voch ar'num // char'num) - I don't take.

Lesson 6

To be able to read Classical Armenian texts we still need to know some rules of pronunciation. 

# In one of the previous lessons we learned how to pronounce the diphthong ոյ. When followed by a consonant, it is pronounced as "uy" instead of "oy": սոյն - suyn, համբոյր - hambuyr or hamp'uyr / hamp'uyr. BUT: հոյակապ - hoyakap / hoyagab, գոյութիւն - goyut'iun / k'oyut'iun (because in these examples ոյ is not followed by a consonant). 

If ոյ is at the end of a word, we read it as "o", omitting the sound "y": ձուլածոյ - dz'ulaco / c'uladz'o, դշխոյ -  dəshxo / t'əshxo. BUT: in some monosyllabic words we read it as it is written - "oy": գոյ - goy / k'oy, Նոյ - Noy, խոյ - xoy.  

# The diphthong այ (ay) in final position is also pronounced without the sound "y" (in other positions it is pronounced as it is written):  տղայ - təła / dəła, սատանայ - satana / sadana. BUT:  in some monosyllabic words we read the final այ as it is written - "ay": հայ - hay, ճայ - chay / jay, նայ - nay, վայ - vay, բայ - bay / p'ay.

# The pronunciation of the diphthong եա is between "ea" and "ia". We represent it in the transcriptions of our lessons as it is written, that is, "ea", but remember to pronounce it somewhat quickly, as one syllable and not two: ողորմեա - vołormea, մատեան - matean / madean. But sometimes եա is pronounced as "ya": դղեակ - dəłyak / t'əłyag.

# The diphthong իւ at the beginning of a word before a consonant is pronounced as "yu": իւղ - yuł, իւր - yur.

In other positions it is pronounced as "iu" when followed by a consonant, but quickly, as one syllable, not two: բնութիւն - bənutiun / p'ənut'iun, ձիւն - dz'iun / c'iun. BUT: դիւային - divayin / t'ivayin, անիւ - aniv (because in these examples իւ is not followed by a consonant).

# The diphthong եւ when followed by a consonant is pronounced as the diphthong իւ: հեւր - hiur, աղբեւր - ałbiur / aghp'iur. In the following word it sounds as "yu": առեւծ - ar'yuc / ar'yudz'. BUT: թեւ - t'ev, տեւական - tevakan / devagan (because in these examples եւ is not followed by a consonant). 

In post-Mesropian times this diphthong and digraph was sometimes replaced by the diphthong and digraph իւ, that is why one may see some words in nominative and accusative cases written both with իւ, and եւ: հեւր-հիւր, աղբեւր-աղբիւր (in other cases and in composite words when followed by another root or a suffix եւ changes to իւ also in Mesropian Armenian).

In three words եւ before a consonant is pronounced as "eo" or "yo": արդեւք - ardeok' / art'eok', եւթն - yot'ən, գեւղ - geoł / k'eoł. These words are also written with եաւ or եօ instead of եւ (that is, արդեօք, եօթն, գեօղ), but the more ancient orthography is considered to be with եւ.

# The diphthong աւ when followed by a consonant is pronounced as simple "o" (though this was not so in the Mesropian times), because of which in the 11th-12th centuries the letter "o" was introduced into the Armenian alphabet to use instead of  աւ when it is pronounced as "o".  But this does not mean that after that աւ of the closed syllables stopped being used in Classical Armenian texts. Both ways of writing were used. Examples: ամաւթ // ամօթ - amot', աւր // օր - or, առաւաւտ // առաւօտ - ar'avot / ar'avod. BUT: աւազան - avazan, տաւիղ - tavił / davił (because in these examples աւ is not followed by a consonant).Exception: աղաւնի - ałavni (though աւ is followed by a consonant here, it is pronounced as "av" and not "o").

# The digraph ու when preceding a vowel is pronounced as "v": զուարթ - zvart', արուեստ - arvest / arvesd. There is only one exception which we shall learn when studying the past imperfect tense of verbs.

# We know that the letter ո in initial position is pronounced as "vo" instead of its ancient pronunciation which was "o": ոսկի - voski / vosgi, ոսոխ - vosox. But we also learned the word ով which is pronounced as "ov". Тhere are other words too in which the initial ո is pronounced as "o". Those words are proper nouns and loans: ովկիանոս - ovkianos* / ovgianos, ովսաննայ ovsanna, ոլիմպոս - olimpos / olimbos, ովասիս - ovasis, Ոսրոյենէ - osroyene, Ովսէէ - ovsee, Ովբէդ ovbed / ovp'et'. (* In many loan words you may find the Greek ω (Omega) transcripted in Armenian letters as ով instead of simple ո.)

Now we know the main rules for reading Classical Armenian texts.

Lesson 5

In this lesson we are going to finish with the letters of the Armenian alphabet. The remaining letters are the following:

Ժ ժ (zhe=ʒe) as in "pleasure"

Ձ ձ (dz'a / tsa=c'a) EA pronunciation - as in the Italian "mezzo"; WA pronunciation of this letter is the same with that of Ց ց (tso=c'o).

Պ պ (pe / be) EA pr. - as in "speak"; WA pr. - as in "bed"

Կ կ (ken / gen) EA pr. - as in "skate"; WA pr. - as in "get"

Տ տ (tiun / diun) EA pr. - as in "step"; WA pr. - as in "desk"

The above three letters are for the unaspirated variants of the aspirated voiceless consonants Փ փ (p'), Ք ք (k'), Թ թ (t'). They are letters for voiced consonants in WA.

The following two letters when pronounced according to the Eastern Armenian pronunciation are the hardest for foreigners and the Western Armenians. These sounds also exist in Georgian, the sound system of which is very similar to that of Classical and Eastern Armenian languages. These two sounds are the unaspirated variants of the aspirated voiceless consonants Ց ց (c'o) and Չ չ (ch'a) and are letters for voiced consonants in WA.

Ծ ծ (tsa=ca / dza) In the EA pronunciation this letter is a variant of Ց ց (tso=c'o). Hear it in the recording and if you are unable to distinguish it from Ց ց (tso=c'o) or pronounce it correctly, pronounce as Ց ց (tso=c'o).

---- In the WA pronunciation this letter sounds like the sound "dz" in the Italian word "mezzo".

Ճ ճ (che / je) In the EA pronunciation this letter is a variant of Չ չ (ch'a). Hear it in the recording and if you are unable to distinguish it from Չ չ (ch'a) or pronounce it correctly, pronounce as Չ չ (ch'a).

---- In the WA pronunciation this letter sounds like the "j" in "jam".

Now we know all the 36 letters of the Mesropian alphabet. 10 letters of the alphabet are pronounced differently in the Western and Eastern Armenian languages. These 10 letters represent 10 different sounds in the Classical and Eastern Armenian languages and don't repeat the sounds of the other letters of the alphabet. Due to the historical sound change, they represent only 5 sounds in the Western Armenian language and repeat the sounds of other 5 letters of the alphabet.

Those 10 letters are:

Բ, Գ, Դ, Ձ, Ջ (for voiced consonants in CA and EA; for voiceless aspirated consonants in WA and repeating the voiceless aspirated Փ, Ք, Թ, Ց, Չ)

Պ, Կ, Տ, Ծ, Ճ (for voiceless unaspirated consonants in CA and EA; for voiced consonants in WA)

Reading and some grammar
