The Lithuanian "have" - resultative - a typological curiosum?
2012
ABSTRACT Björn Wiemer. The Lithuanian HAVE-resultative - A Typological Curiosum? Lingua Posnaniensis, vol. LIV (2)/2012. The Poznań Society for the Advancement of the Arts and Sciences. PL ISSN 0079-4740, ISBN 978-83-7654-252-2, pp. 69-81. This article presents the Lithuanian possessive resultative construction with the verb turėti ‘have’ and discusses its place in a typology of forms of resultative constructions. While possessive resultatives with a past passive participle (as in Polish Kolację mamy już przygotowaną lit. ‘We have the dinner already prepared’) are found in areally related as well as other languages, Lithuanian stands out in using an active participle (more precisely: a part…

From Dialects to a Language. Cesare Caravaglios and the Melodies in the World War I Trenches as Songs of the Italian Nation
2019
After the territorial unity of Italy in 1861, romanists, ethnographers and musicologists addressed their efforts in collecting poems and folk music, aiming to demonstrate the interconnection among different regions. At the end of the nineteenth century, the impulse to identify the unity of the country through dialects became a dogma, in order to consolidate the unachieved “Italianness”. Alongside to this presumed linguistic similarity, an obsessive mix of nationalism and irredentism provoked the political campaign, which brought to the war in 1915. Cesare Caravaglios (1893-1937), a band conductor and a scholar, devoted his research on Neapolitan songs and cries of street vendors. Influenced…
A syntactic analysis of the subject clitic a in the Friulian variety of Campone
2015
This article presents a syntactic analysis of the third person subject clitic a in Camponese, a heretofore unstudied Friulian variety. Following Poletto's (2000) map of subject clitics, we argue that it bears [+third person] features, and is, in fact, the spell-out of the functional head Subj°, located in the highest projection of TP (following Rizzi & Shlonsky 2007). In the first part of the article, we offer a detailed description of the distribution and syntactic properties of the subject clitic a, identifying its position in relation to the other elements that occur in the CP and TP. In the second part we discuss two proposals put forward to account for split clitics like a-l in the…
L’USO DEL DIALETTO NELLA CANZONE. STUDI, TENDENZE, PROSPETTIVE DI RICERCA
2020
Gli ultimi decenni della storia linguistica del nostro Paese sono stati scanditi da una serie di rapidi e importanti mutamenti dell’assetto sociolinguistico: l’italiano, sempre più orientato sull’asse dell’oralità, è cambiato anche nella canzone che a poco a poco si è aperta ai tratti del parlato scrollandosi di dosso l’insieme di “for¬mule” ereditate dal passato. In questa cesura col passato, la tendenza alla ricerca di una lingua che riproponesse i tratti del parlato ha ovviamente favorito anche una significativa sporgenza verso il dialetto. Se nella percezione di un artista, la sua canzone “coincide” con il testo che egli ha scritto, non sempre, per chi voglia studiarne le caratteristich…
The phonemic features of and attitudes toward Southern U.S. English : examining individual dialects and their perception by university students
2013
Tämä tutkielma käsittelee amerikanenglannin murteita Yhdysvaltojen eteläisissä osavaltioissa. Tutkielma käsittelee pääasiassa sitä, millä tavalla yliopisto-opiskelijat reagoivat Amerikan Etelävaltioissa puhuttavaan englantiin. Tämän lisäksi tutkielmassa esitellään eteläisten osavaltioiden murrealueen yleisimmät erityispiirteet, esimerkiksi erilaiset tavat lausua sanoja verrattuna standardiin amerikanenglantiin. Tutkielmassa keskitytään analysoimaan amerikanenglantia käsittelevää kyselylomaketta, johon vastasi neljätoista yliopisto-opiskelijaa. Kyselylomakkeen vastatessaan opiskelijat kuuntelivat neljää Internetissä ollutta äänitiedostoa, joidenka puhujien murteet olivat seuraavilta alueilta…
