English-Lezgian dictionary - N


This is a preliminary version of the first ever web-based English-Lezgian dictionary. As for now, most (but not all) of the entries are taken from the dictionary included in Martin Haspelmath's "A grammar of Lezgian".

My dictionary is intended to serve as a learning aid. Apart from simply giving Lezgian equivalent words, I also try to explain how and when they're used. Hence, e.g. info on which form of noun does a given verb need.

I am fully aware of the shortcomings of these pages and will try to work on both number of entries (simply adding more and more and more) and their format (adding grammar notes and usage examples). It's a lot of work and I could really use any help, so:

If you have any thoughts to share, or any words to add, please write me. I am all ears.
