However, Medieval Spanish only attests the latter; the former were not frequent until the 16th/17th centuries. Both types are examined in their syntactic evolution and properties, including clausal nominality, argumenthood, nature of prepositions, and optionality.Latin and Portuguese, French, and Italian - both in their present-day and past forms - are studied and compared to Spanish. Likewise, several Germanic languages are surveyed. These languages show variable grammatical degrees of This study offers a novel approach to the analysis of Spanish prepositional clauses by looking at its properties and formation not only from within but also in contrast with other languages. It argues for cross-linguistically valid categories and explanations in order to comprehend the properties of human language. 410 0$aStudies in Language Change [SLC] 606 $aSpanish language$xClauses 606 $aSpanish language$xGrammar 606 $aSpanish language$xPrepositions 610 $aHistorical Linguistics. 610 $aPrepositional Clauses. 610 $aSpanish. 615 0$aSpanish language$xClauses. 615 0$aSpanish language$xGrammar. 615 0$aSpanish language$xPrepositions. 676 $a465/.7 700 $aCantero$b Manuel Delicado$01605552 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808416103321 996 $aPrepositional clauses in Spanish$93930846 997 $aUNINA
