"-зе" meaning in Moksha

See -зе in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Suffix

Forms: -ze [romanization]
Etymology: The objective template V + IO + IT + IS with all the slots filled in is expected to yield a Common-Mordvinic *kunda-s-aj²-zə (using кундамс (kundams) as an example) "he/she/it caught him/her/it." In Erzya this produced кундызе (kundïze) and in Moksha — кундазе (kundaze). Both via intermediary *kundajzə. In conclusion: this suffix is of subject marking origin. Etymology templates: {{tooltip|verb stem|V|und=1}} V, {{tooltip|object indicator|IO|und=1}} IO, {{tooltip|temporal indicator|IT|und=1}} IT, {{tooltip|subject indicator|IS|und=1}} IS Head templates: {{head|mdf|suffix}} -зе • (-ze)

Suffix

Forms: -ze [romanization]
Etymology: The Erzya counterpart -м (-m) traces back to *-mV. The Moksha counterpart is an anomaly. Based on the dialectal form -nze, it is possible that this suffix represents fusion of *-m (or -н (-n)) and ся (sä, “that”). There is variation in the dative form of this suffix, compare кудозти (kudozti) (Poljakov) and прязенди (präzendi) (Golenkov), Poljakov also gives кудозенди (kudozendi). Head templates: {{head|mdf|suffix}} -зе • (-ze)
  1. 1st person singular possessive suffix in nominative, genitive and dative with one possession Tags: morpheme Related terms: -н (-n) (english: the possessive suffix elsewhere in the paradigm, closer to the expected Uralic form)
