- Authors
Friedman, Victor A.
- Abstract
The article discusses the traditional epithet involving the term "ebe" and the direct object "mother" in the Macedonian language. It examines the level of Anglicisms in the Macedonian language and a non-folkloric colloquial text that is replete with taboo expression in the language. Also discussed is the usage of a number of grammatical features of the language, including tense, definiteness and object reduplication.
