dc.description.abstractThe article examines the features of ancient Indo-European noun declensions. Most of the scientists note the declension paradigm being built according to the stem-building markers which refer to relics of the active class. Due to the source antiquity, it is difficult to restore semantic subgroups of names associated with certain stem-building markers. Therefore, in some languages the preference is given to types of markers while in the rest to other ones. There is a tendency to unify a marker having a common meaning. Little research has been undertaken to identify the grammatical function of ancient German stem-building markers in nothing but, on the one hand, they were a feature of a certain declension, on the other hand, that of certain noun groups. Unfortunately, it does not clarify indoeuropeistics. Many attempts have been made to associate with noun division according to their semantics and to semantize stem-building markers. However, ancient Germanic languages, including Gothic, retained the noun division in the declension paradigm according to a stem-building marker. As for the Gothic language, the concept of basic division coexists with gender division. A lot of animate names should be noted to be concentrated in the declension with unmarked stems according to the concept of gender. The lexical meaning of nouns obviously reflects the former Indo-European state when every living, growing as well as socially significant thing was referred to an animate name. Therefore, the lexical composition of relict declensions is one of the most important elements in clarifying the role and significance of stem-building markers. Logical conclusion is that stem-building markers became formal signs of declensions just over time. At first, these formal signs of declensions were not indifferent to noun semantics and only joined certain names distinguishing them among the others. Lexical analysis of Gothic nouns with stem-building markers convinces of the ancient origin of consonantal elements -j-, -w-, -n-. The consonantal elements of stem-building markers, as classifying signs, cease to perform their semantic function and take a new function of animateness.
