Sommario/riassunto |
|
This publication provides a large-scale comparative treatment of 'there' sentences (there copula NP), reporting the results of a survey of over 100 Italo-Romance and Sardinian dialects spoken in Italy. It addresses key issues in linguistic theory and offers a valuable source of data for research on the Romance languages. |
