Udi (East Caucasian) possesses several means of expressing the meaning âotherâ, namely (i) the combination of a (usually distal) demonstrative with a numeral (usually âoneâ), arguably calqued from Azerbaijani, (ii) the expression originating from a combination of a demonstrative with the noun âarm, sideâ, and (iii) borrowed adjectives. It is shown that the morphological properties of some of these expressions suggest a kind of grammaticalization. The semantic differences between the expressions mostly fit into the contrast between the types of âotherâ expressions proposed by Cinque (2015), but also display additional remarkable contrasts.
