Volume : II, Issue : XII, January - 2013 THE PROCESS OF NEGATION IN ASSAMESE AND BODO LANGUAGE OF NORTH EAST INDIA: A COMPARATIVE STUDY GUDDU PRASAD BASUMATARY DOI : 10.9780/22307850, Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : The Assamese language is originated from Indo-Aryan group of greater Indo-
European language family and the Bodo language is originated from Tibeto-Burman
group of the Sino-Tibetan language family. Both the language has special and common
characteristics. According to the linguistics theory there should be a contrastive study
between the languages but here trying to make a comparative study as both the language
speakers have been staying in a same geographical surrounding since the day
immemorial. In this paper I would like to discuss the negation process of both Assamese
and Bodo language. As both the languages are agglutinating in character, prefixes and
suffixes are used in negative formation. I do hope this paper will help the readers as well
as the language researchers more about the languages which are spoken in the North
East India. Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : GUDDU PRASAD BASUMATARY, (2013). THE PROCESS OF NEGATION IN ASSAMESE AND BODO LANGUAGE OF NORTH EAST INDIA: A COMPARATIVE STUDY.
