  • Negation in Catalan. Some Remarks with Regard to No Pas M
    NEGATION IN CATALAN. SOME REMARKS WITH REGARD TO NO PAS M. Teresa Espinal Universitat Autbnoma de Barcelona In this paper I shail approach certain questions that can be posed in the study of Catalan negative constructions: (a) how many negative markers can be distinguished; (b) how the difference between no and no pas should be described in the core grammar of this language, and (c) what sort of syntactic representation should be assigned to negative sententiai constructions in Catalan. The structure of the paper is organized as follows. Section 1 is devoted to describing the syntactic disttibution of the various negative markers existing in Catalan. It is proposed that, apart from no, there are two more negative markers: no pas I, which is a negative head, and no pas 2, which is a negative specifier. Section 2 describes the semantic properties that characterize these negative markers. It is argued that the association with focus is not an inherent property of the logical semantics of no pas, and that what singles out this operator, in contrast with no, is that it has a quantificational domain over a set of conceptual entities of which a subdomain is selected as the negative contrasted item. Section 3 deals with the sort of syntactic structure that should be assigned to Catalan negative sentences and it iniroduces the proposal that the relevant structure has a NegP as the root node and an AgrP as iis complement. TP is the complement of the latter functional category. 1. Syntactic Distribution I shall approach the first question by briefly

This theory was already shown in Diccionari Catala- Valencia-Balear (DCVB). On the other hand, Romanisches etymologisches Worterbucha(REwa) says that the etymon of mereixer is MERERE. (As for pareixer, REwa holds the same theory as that of CorominesJ The present writer doubts the validity of Coromines's theory for either word, and wishes to suggest a theory that their etyma were - - PARERE and MERERE respectively, G.d. verb forms without the "Latin inchoative infix" -SC-) , and the forms pareixer and mereixer were the result of the secondary change in Catalan. The theory to posit the inchoative forms PARESCERE and 'MERESCERE as the etyma of the two Catalan verbs is challenged for three reasons; Catalan sources for the words in question do not give enough evidence; Examination of Latin inchoative-conjugation verbs leads to contradictory conclusion; Resources we might collect from other Romance languages do not support it.

Departament de Filologia Catalana Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes, 585. 08007 Barcelona (Spain) [email protected] Abstract There is in Catalan a set of verbs, the so-called «velar verbs», whose differential characteristic consists in presenting a velar segment between the root and the inflectional suffixes in certain morphosyntactic contexts. This velar segment has traditionally been considered as being part of the root in the contexts where it occurs, and has been made responsible for the typical allomor- phic character of velar verbs. Under the assumption that regular verbs are only one-root verbs, velar verbs have been treated as irregular verbs. Nevertheless, neither the phonic character of the velar segment nor the marginal character of velar verbs is clear. The aim of this paper is to pre- sent a different account of velar verbs on the basis of the inflectional morphological character of the velar segment. The work is split into two parts. The first one focuses on standard Catalan, and tries to show that in this variety velar verbs are better treated as regular verbs. The second one focuses on other Catalan varieties, and aims to exhibit the incoherence implied in the tradi- tional treatment of velar verbs in the context of the Catalan language as a whole. The discussion is mainly developed on morphological grounds, halfway between theory and description. Key words: inchoative segment, irregular verbs, lexical entries, regular verbs, velar verbs, verbal classes, verbal subclasses; Catalan.

  • The Accusative/Dative Alternation in Catalan Verbs with Experiencer Object Carles Royo Universitat Rovira I Virgili
    Chapter 15 The accusative/dative alternation in Catalan verbs with experiencer object Carles Royo Universitat Rovira i Virgili Various Catalan psychological verbs that are part of causative sentences with an accusative experiencer (Els nens van molestar la Maria or La van molestar ‘The kids annoyed Maria’ or ‘They annoyed her’) alternate with stative sentences that change the sentence order and have a dative experiencer (A la Maria li molesta el teu caràcter ‘lit. To Maria your character is annoying’). Other psychological verbs, however, can form both types of sentence without changing the accusative mor- phology of the experiencer (Els nens van atabalar la Maria or La van atabalar ‘The kids overwhelmed Maria or They overwhelmed her’; A la Maria l’atabala el teu caràcter ‘lit. To Maria your character is overwhelming’). I argue that in stative sen- tences of all these verbs the experiencer is a real dative, regardless of its morphol- ogy (dative or accusative). Differential indirect object marking (DIOM) explains why accusative morphology is possible in these constructions. 1 Introduction Since the first half of the 20th century (cf. Ginebra 2003: 16, Ginebra 2015: 147), some Catalan psychological verbs belonging to Belletti & Rizzi (1988)’s type II – which make sentences with an accusative experiencer or AcExp (1a)/(2a) – have appeared with some frequency in both the written and spoken language with a change in sentence order and a dative experiencer (1b)/(2b). This accusative/da- tive alternation has generated considerable academic debate. In most instances, the rules of the Institute of Catalan Studies (IEC) governing the Catalan language do not countenance this change in case marking, although the IEC’s new norma- tive grammar (GIEC 2016) and the changes introduced on 5 April 2017 to its on- line normative dictionary (DIEC2 2007) accept the dative case marking – as well Carles Royo.

  • Final Consonant Clusters in Majorcan Catalan Verbs: the Resolution of Sonority Sequence Principle Violations Through Cluster Simplification
    Final Consonant Clusters in Majorcan Catalan Verbs: The Resolution of Sonority Sequence Principle Violations through Cluster Simplification Mark Amengual and Cynthia P. Blanco The Pennsylvania State University 1. Introduction Majorcan (and Balearic) Catalan dialects lack an overt inflectional morpheme for first person singular present indicative verb forms. Many of these Majorcan Catalan (MC) verbs end with the consonants of the verb root with no further inflectional vowel (represented by the morphs /u/, /o/, /e/ or /i/ in other dialects of Catalan). This divergent morphological structure is illustrated in (1) from Pons (2007): (1) Catalan dialect variation in first person singular of present indicative: Orthographic Form Balearic Central North- Southern North- and translation Western Eastern &DQWR³ , VLQJ´ >¶ND৊t] >¶ND৊tu] >¶ND৊to] >¶ND৊WH@a>¶ND৊to] >¶ND৊ti(k)] 7HPR³ , ZRUU\´ >¶WHP@ >¶WHPX@ >¶WHPR@ >¶WHP@a>¶WHPN@ >¶WHPL@a >¶WHPX N @ 6HQWR³ , KHDU´ >¶VH৊t] >¶VH৊tu] >¶VH৊to] >¶VH৊W@a>¶VH৊k] >¶VH৊ti] [ݕiܭݕu] >SD¶WLݕo] >SD¶WLݕR@a>SD¶WLݕk] [pԥ¶Wܭ, VXIIHU´ [pԥ¶Wԥsk] [pԥ¶W 3DWHL[R³ In addition, these present indicative first person singular verb forms in MC contain final clusters that are ill-formed at the phonetic level, e.g. compr µ , EX\¶ or obr µ , RSHQ¶ 7KXV 0& VWHPV DSSHDU without additional morphology and maintain final consonant clusters that appear to violate the syllable restrictions imposed by the Sonority Sequencing Principle (SSP).

Further reproduction prohibited without permission. A bstract Tense and Aspect in Periphrastic Pasts: Evidence from Iberian Romance by Matthew Lambert Juge Doctor of Philosophy in Linguistics University of California, Berkeley Professor Andrew Garrett, Chair Cross-linguistic similarities can result from shared history, borrowing, or parallel development, in which case the similarities may be due to universal tendencies or coincidence. For example, many languages have auxiliary verbs meaning ‘be’, ‘have’, ‘come’, or ‘go’. In some cases, different languages’ auxiliaries are very similar; for example, many future markers mean ‘want’. Other cases are more complicated; for instance, some future auxiliaries mean ‘go’ , but some mean ‘come’. Furthermore, divergent developments of the same verb show that these paths are not predictable simply from basic meanings. This dissertation examines the development of past tense auxiliaries from ‘be’, ‘have’, and ‘go’ in the Iberian Romance languages (Catalan, Portuguese, and Spanish) with emphasis on both diachronic and synchronic patterns, specifically addressing universal versus language-specific factors and comparing developments in the Romance languages and other language families.

  • The Use of Present Perfect in the Expression of Past Temporality in L2 Spanish and Catalan by Children of Moroccan Origin
    THE USE OF PRESENT PERFECT IN THE EXPRESSION OF PAST TEMPORALITY IN L2 SPANISH AND CATALAN BY CHILDREN OF MOROCCAN ORIGIN EULÀLIA CANALS ABSTUCT This study examines the acquisition of Catalan and Spanish past-tense verbs (Preterite, Present Perfect, and Imperfect) by children of Moroccan origin in three schools in the Barcelona metropo1itan area. lt presents data that allow us to study which of the three tenses poses the most problems for the second language (b.) speakers as compared to the native speakers in a control group. The data were obtained using elicited story-retell tasks and oral narratives. The resu!ts show that in both languages acquiring the accurate functional use of verbs is more difficu!t than making the right lexical or morphological choices. The greatest functÍonal difficulty lies in the acquisition of the Preterite vis-à-vis the Present Perfect. These resu!ts provide additional evidence that form precedes function. However, they challenge an established position on the acquisition of tense and aspect in Romance languages, which holds that the most difficu!t functional feature to acquire for L2 learners of these languages is the difference between perfective and imperfectÍve tenses. INTRODUCTION T his study examines the acquisition of tens e and aspect relations in Spanish and Catalan. Specifically, it focuses on the acquisition of three tenses: the Imperfect (e.g., "vivia"), the Preterite (e.g., "vaig viure"), and the Present Perfect (e.g., "he viscut"). Earlier research on the acquisition of tense and aspect, and especially studies that involve the acquisition of Romance languages, has generally focused either on the emergence of the Preterit e versus Imperfect morphology (Andersen, "Desarrollo"; Bardovi-Harlig, "Narrative"; Comajoan, "Acquisition"; Salaberry) or on the acquisition of the functional differences between the imperfective and the perfective tenses (Montrul and Slabakova).
