La Sintaxis del Neutro de Materia en Asturiano: Especificidad, Genericidad y la Posicion del Adjetivo

Burner, Matthew 01 January 2015 (has links)
While Asturian, a language spoken in Northwestern Spain, shows some similarities with Spanish, there is a morphological characteristic that the two languages do not share. Unlike Spanish, Asturian has not only morphemes dedicated to both the masculine (–u) and feminine (–a) genders in its adjectives, but there is also a morpheme that represents the neuter (–o). Related to this morphological characteristic, Asturian exhibits what is standardly called the mass neuter phenomenon. In order for the mass neuter to be present in a grammatically correct sentence in Asturian, certain criteria must be met. For instance, either a masculine or feminine mass noun can be followed by a neuter adjective, and this structure gives a generic interpretation reading. However, it is important to take into account that the same adjective can also agree in gender with the noun that precedes it, in which case the morphological neuter is ungrammatical and the interpretation becomes specific. There also exists a third possibility in which the adjective appears in a prenominal position, in which case the adjective must agree in gender, the interpretation must be specific, and the mass neuter is ruled out. Given the possibilities in gender agreement, specific or generic interpretation, and adjective placement, my study aims to better define the contexts in which the mass neuter in Asturian can and cannot appear in a grammatical sentence, and how the syntactic analysis proposed to account for to the placement of the adjective can shed light to explain the phenomenon under study.

La lengua Asturiana : -Actitudes e identidad lingüística y oficialidad

Romo Miranda, Héctor Moisés January 2024 (has links)
ABSTRACT Spain currently has, within the range of geographical areas and autonomous communities, five official languages: Galician (Galicia), Basque, Basque (Bilbao), Catalan (Barcelona), Valencian (Valencia) and Spanish which enjoy official prestige. Thus, Castilian, a language derived from the area of Castile, acquired its prolonged development from Asturias. This last pure language without a mixture of Mozarabic invasion, cultivated and developed since the Reconquista in Covadonga (a place located in the Picos de Europa, located to the north in the Asturian and Cantabrian area), made Pelayo king in 718 B.C. This last language, Spanish, is the main official language of all of Spain. The main purpose of this sociolinguistic research is to openly expose facsimiles and barriers that have arisen over time, which have been the object of obstacles, thus preventing the official status of the Asturian language. Which has been one of the oldest languages concerning other bordering areas of autonomous communities. History shows a current generation represented by older adults and peasants by profession, who still maintain oral speech discourses of ”Bable” (the Asturian language) that are still alive. This generation of adults will be responsible for leaving their oral and written legacy of the Asturian language to their preceding generations. At the end of the research, the objective is to point out the importance of the official status of the Asturian language which allows and is a clear identity of the local citizenship, that is, the Asturians. In other words, the Asturians currently represent the legacy of the area, including its Asturian language, and those who enjoy freedom of expression and civil and moralright, thus protecting the languages, in the different autonomous communities of the Spain today. Keywords: Asturian language, official spanish languages, linguistic identity, Asturians, official barriers, linguistic attitudes, spanish languages, official recognition
