Many serious scholars, however, have regarded it with embarrassment or indifference. A cautious reintroduction of phonosymbolism as a factor responsible for changes undergone, in varying degrees, by most languages would now seem to be in order. The present volume brings together a number of recent articles on this subject, focusing mostly on problems from Romance languages, especially Spanish; but English also figures prominently.Sound symbolismHistorical linguisticsSound symbolism.Historical linguistics.417/.7Malkiel Yakov1914-1998.172559MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778955303321Diachronic problems in phonosymbolism565604UNINA
