Abstract. The article examines the comparative constructions of the Bezhta language, which belongs to the Tsezic subgroup of the Avaro-Ando-Tsezic group of the Nakh-Dagestanian language family. The paper for the first time describes the semantics and syntax of the comparative constructions. Though the Bezhta language has three dialects (Bezhta proper, Khocharkhotin and Tlyadal ones) the comparative constructions are examined by the material of the Bezhta dialect proper. The comparative constructions are divided into comparative and equative ones. The comparative constructions are arranged by the locative affix, and equative ones - by special affixes. The electronic base of the Bezhta texts on the basis of the program "Toolbox" served as material for the research.
Key words and phrases: бежтинский язык, компаративная сравнительная конструкция, эквативная сравнительная конструкция, параметр сравнения, субъект сравнения, стандарт сравнения, суффиксы, Bezhta language, comparative construction, equative comparative construction, parameter of comparison, subject of comparison, model of comparison, suffixes
