Abstract

The article examines the peculiarities in the functioning of the Russian discursive word “nu” («ну») in Bashkir monologue speech. The purpose of the research is to analyze and identify the main functions of the studied discursive in the process of organizing oral discourse. The study was carried out on the basis of dialect discourses of the Bashkir language collected during expedition trips to settlements in the Republic of Bashkortostan. The monologue was chosen as the main form of the informants’ recordings. The total volume of the studied materials is 250 dialect texts that contain the discursive of nu.

The analysis made it possible to determine a high functional and pragmatic potential of the discursive of nu in the Bashkir language. It provides coherence and integrity of speech, marks corrections, fills unintended pauses, draws special attention to an informative word or phrase, enhances the meaning of a subsequent word, gives an emotional and evaluative color.

The article also discusses the functional equivalents of this discursive marker in the Bashkir language that are capable of implementing a similar semantic function in speech. In the flow of speech, the discursive of nu can replace interjections, pronouns, particles as well as introductory words and constructions of the native language. Being a characteristic feature of oral speech, it is found as a stylistic device in works of fiction.
