The non-standard features of Bukharan Tajik discussed İn this paper are the 1) prevalence of pre-nominal modifier phrases with -agi, 2) absence of the -a sudan passive construction, and 3) morphology of the continuous aspect marking. The discussion includes both synchronic and diachroic analyses of the features.
