Superlative Morphology from Syntax: Slavic Nai‐/Naj‐ and Internal Definiteness Marking in Old Lithuanian

Transactions of the Philological Society, Volume 120, Issue 1, Page 103-127, March 2022., 2022
Abstract It has long been noticed that the Slavic superlative prefix nai‐/naj‐ comprises two components: *na + *i. The former can be identified with the preposition Sl na ‘on(to)’ which developed an intensifying meaning when used as a prefix. The origin of the second component, on the other hand, has not been determined satisfactorily so far.

Nations and Nationalism, Volume 32, Issue 2, Page 473-484, April 2026.
ABSTRACT How can nationalist leaders stand for political independence and monetary sovereignty while embracing the use of a supra‐national currency? At first sight, unilateral euroisation—the de facto adoption of the euro instead of a national currency—seems inconsistent with the goals of nationalism and independence.
