| description | <p>This work sets out to explore the phenomenon of double past participle forms exhibited by certain verbs across the Sicilian dialects. It starts with the definition of the past participial class, its role in Latin and its formal categorization among other parts of speech in Chapter 1. It then provides a summary of the research done so far on the topic of the past participial doublets in Chapter 2. It then moves to the overview of the same phenomenon in various Romance varieties, including Portuguese, Spanish, standard Italian, Venetan and Old Tuscan in Chapter 3. Chapter 4 provides a brief summary of the main relevant characteristics of the Sicilian dialects. Chapter 5 is dedicated to the analysis of the phenomenon of the past participial doublets in selected modern literary sources. Chapter 6 provides discussion of the second part of my data collection, in which I asked some native speakers of various Sicilian dialects to translate 52 sentences containing past participle (used in different functions) in standard Italian into their linguistic varieties.</p>
<p>When giving examples in Sicilian (and other dialects) and Italian, I have made the decision to gloss only ambiguous ones. Furthermore, since there is considerable variation within the Sicilian dialects too, I decided to write the names of the analysed verbs in standard Italian and provide examples in the respective dialects.</p> |
