THE SEMANTIC NETWORK OF THE LATIN PREPOSITION PER: A DIACHRONIC INVESTIGATION
2020
Proponiamo qui i risultati di uno studio corpus-based sugli slittamenti diacronici osservabili nel network semantico della preposizione per in latino. Sulla base della Cognitive Grammar, descriviamo la semantica di per situandola lungo un continuum che procede dal concreto all’astratto, a partire da un contenuto schematico originario; discutiamo, quindi, i percorsi attraverso i quali i nuovi significati astratti emergono attraverso sli ttamenti metonimici, focalizzando la nostra attenzione sui ruoli causali e sulla caratteristica di animatezza.
Contact-induced phenomena in the Alps
2019
The main question underlying this chapter is to what extent language contact can affect syntactic structure. To tackle this issue we examine two relevant phenomena found in two minority languages spoken in the region Trentino-Alto Adige/South Tyrol: clitic climbing in Dolomitic Ladin and the use of the Romance complementizer ke in Cimbrian. Both phenomena are usually considered as the result of a contact-induced change influenced by the neighbouring Italo-Romance varieties. However, it is shown that the rising of clitic climbing is a language-internal process which is only accelerated by the contact with Italian. Similarly, the lexical borrowing of the complementizer ke in Cimbrian does not…
Cinema e parole
2022
Partendo dall’osservazione che c’è lingua nel cinema e c’è cinema nella lingua, questo piccolo libro mostra la pertinenza di ambedue i membri di questa osservazione e lo fa da prospettive originali e inconsuete, facendo del cinema un’occasione per occuparsi di lingua e della lingua un modo per parlare di cinema. Ecco allora che, indagando i modi del funzionamento di una famosa gag linguistico di Totò e Peppino, si mette in luce l’ambiguità del titolo e, conseguentemente, dell’interpretazione complessiva della pellicola più celebrata e ricordata di Ettore Scola. I tratti espressivi dell’attore Nanni Moretti diventano strumento per comprendere i caratteri ispiratori del Nanni Moretti regista.…

L'estrazione automatica dei ruoli semantici corradicali. The importance of being Cognate
2022
This study will introduce a tool – termed NLPYTALY – for the automatictreatment of naturally-occurring texts in Italian. The tool distinguishesconstructs with an ordinary verb from those with a support verb. Mean-ing is rendered by using cognate (i.e. etymologically related) semantic roles (CSR), which differ from other roles because they are expressed withthe content morpheme of the predicate licensing arguments. CSRs offer anumber of advantages: they can be semi-automatically derived and use the who-does-what model. Besides, they facilitate the detection of anaphoric chains and produce a foreground/background opposition of the namedentities. Finally, they permit the construction of a chro…
