Abstract

Shor texts are an essential resource of the preservation and further development of the language of Shor, one of the indigenous peoples of Southern Siberia. Nowadays, the Shor are developing their literature. Contemporary Shor authors are using their native language creating works in various genres. The examples of the Shor written language of a wide time frame have become accessible. In the process of revitalization of the Shor language the fixation of its vocabulary is of prior importance as vocabulary accumulates ethnic notional sphere in the lexical meaning of words. Shor lexemes can be singled out from Turkic- Russian dictionaries by V. I. Verbitsky (1884), W. Radlov (1893–1911). A dictionary for students of Shor is written by N. N. Kurpeshko-Tannagasheva and F. Y. Apon`kin (1993). Nevertheless, a significant amount of material from Shor texts has not yet been reflected in lexicographic studies. The “field” organization of the vocabulary and expanded presentation of the lexemes in their actual contexts meet the needs of practical usage of Shor – in its oral and written forms and as a material for further linguistic research. This article deals with the lexemes denoting “Singing”, the notion forming one of semantic centers in the field “Music”. The main aim of the article is to show the usage of the lexemes in various contexts. These contexts are taken from original Shor texts of different genres: folk and authors` texts ((lyrics and prose).
