| Popis | This paper is focused on cultural words, mythological animals and calendar systems. Firstly the history of international relations in Xinjiang is briefly mentioned. In the following part lexical parallels of Chinese, Sanskrit, Sogdian, Khotan Saka, Tocharian, Uyghur and Mongolian twelve zodiac animals are collected and compared with older counting of months in nomadic cold areas. Remaining note and case study show, that typological criterion from Altaic linguistics can be analogically applied to Tocharian in an attempt to solve the etymology of functionally parallel word for "animal, beast" further documenting possible Chinese influence on Tocharian. |
