  • Letteratura in Limba : La Nascita Del Nuovo Romanzo in Sardo. Opere E Prospettive
    MICHELE BROCCIA UNIVERSITÀ D’ISLANDA 1 Letteratura in limba : la nascita del nuovo romanzo in sardo. Opere e prospettive. Riassunto a nascita del romanzo in lingua sarda è un’importante novità L nello scenario della letteratura in Italia e in Europa, e soprat- tutto nell’ambito delle lingue minoritarie. Il romanzo, infatti, era un tassello mancante in seno alla letteratura in “limba”, dove erano già presenti i maggiori generi letterari, tra cui la poesia e il teatro. Questa maggiore completezza contribuisce, pertanto, a farne una letteratura matura, da annoverare tra le grandi letterature, o per lo meno subito dopo le letterature degli Stati nazionali europei. Spesso sottovalutato, quando non del tutto ignorato, questo fenomeno let- terario merita di essere trattato e approfondito. In questo breve sag- gio si cerca di individuare gli autori, le opere principali e le motiva- zioni che hanno portato negli anni ’80 il romanzo in sardo a nascere e, nei decenni successivi, a crescere. Si analizzano, inoltre, alcune problematiche che non hanno finora consentito a questo genere let- terario di raggiungere il grande pubblico dei lettori e di farsi apprez- zare. Parole chiave: limba, romanzo, sardo, nuovo, etnicità. 1 Il termine limba in logudorese, una delle principali varianti del sardo, significa “lingua” e si userà qua come sinonimo di lingua sarda, includendo anche il campidanese. ROM REYKJAVIK 2014 1 MICHELE BROCCIA Abstract The birth of the novel in Sardinian language should be considered an important event in Italian as well as European literature, and above all among minority languages. The novel was a missing genre in Sardinian Language Literature, where poetry and theatre were well represented.

  • Attitudes Towards the Safeguarding of Minority Languages and Dialects in Modern Italy
    ATTITUDES TOWARDS THE SAFEGUARDING OF MINORITY LANGUAGES AND DIALECTS IN MODERN ITALY: The Cases of Sardinia and Sicily Maria Chiara La Sala Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Leeds Department of Italian September 2004 This copy has been supplied on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. The candidate confirms that the work submitted is her own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the work of others. ABSTRACT The aim of this thesis is to assess attitudes of speakers towards their local or regional variety. Research in the field of sociolinguistics has shown that factors such as gender, age, place of residence, and social status affect linguistic behaviour and perception of local and regional varieties. This thesis consists of three main parts. In the first part the concept of language, minority language, and dialect is discussed; in the second part the official position towards local or regional varieties in Europe and in Italy is considered; in the third part attitudes of speakers towards actions aimed at safeguarding their local or regional varieties are analyzed. The conclusion offers a comparison of the results of the surveys and a discussion on how things may develop in the future. This thesis is carried out within the framework of the discipline of sociolinguistics. ii DEDICATION Ai miei figli Youcef e Amil che mi hanno distolto

  • Chapter 2. Native Languages of West-Central California
    Chapter 2. Native Languages of West-Central California This chapter discusses the native language spoken at Spanish contact by people who eventually moved to missions within Costanoan language family territories. No area in North America was more crowded with distinct languages and language families than central California at the time of Spanish contact. In the chapter we will examine the information that leads scholars to conclude the following key points: The local tribes of the San Francisco Peninsula spoke San Francisco Bay Costanoan, the native language of the central and southern San Francisco Bay Area and adjacent coastal and mountain areas. San Francisco Bay Costanoan is one of six languages of the Costanoan language family, along with Karkin, Awaswas, Mutsun, Rumsen, and Chalon. The Costanoan language family is itself a branch of the Utian language family, of which Miwokan is the only other branch. The Miwokan languages are Coast Miwok, Lake Miwok, Bay Miwok, Plains Miwok, Northern Sierra Miwok, Central Sierra Miwok, and Southern Sierra Miwok. Other languages spoken by native people who moved to Franciscan missions within Costanoan language family territories were Patwin (a Wintuan Family language), Delta and Northern Valley Yokuts (Yokutsan family languages), Esselen (a language isolate) and Wappo (a Yukian family language). Below, we will first present a history of the study of the native languages within our maximal study area, with emphasis on the Costanoan languages. In succeeding sections, we will talk about the degree to which Costanoan language variation is clinal or abrupt, the amount of difference among dialects necessary to call them different languages, and the relationship of the Costanoan languages to the Miwokan languages within the Utian Family.

  • State Recognition for 'Contested Languages': a Comparative Study Of
    Language Policy https://doi.org/10.1007/s10993-018-9482-6 ORIGINAL PAPER State recognition for ‘contested languages’: a comparative study of Sardinian and Asturian, 1992–2010 Naomi Wells1 Received: 23 August 2016 / Accepted: 18 June 2018 © The Author(s) 2018 Abstract While the idea of a named language as a separate and discrete identity is a politi- cal and social construct, in the cases of Sardinian and Asturian doubts over their respective ‘languageness’ have real material consequences, particularly in relation to language policy decisions at the state level. The Asturian example highlights how its lack of ofcial status means that it is either ignored or subjected to repeated challenges to its status as a language variety deserving of recognition and support, refecting how ‘ofcial language’ in the Spanish context is often understood in prac- tice as synonymous with the theoretically broader category of ‘language’. In con- trast, the recent state recognition of Sardinian speakers as a linguistic minority in Italy (Law 482/1999) illustrates how legal recognition served to overcome exist- ing obstacles to the implementation of regional language policy measures. At the same time, the limited subsequent efects of this Law, particularly in the sphere of education, are a reminder of the shortcomings of top-down policies which fail to engage with the local language practices and attitudes of the communities of speak- ers recognized. The contrastive focus of this article thus acknowledges the continued material consequences of top-down language classifcation, while highlighting its inadequacies as a language policy mechanism which reinforces artifcial distinctions between speech varieties and speakers deserving of recognition.

  • The Sardinian Language in Recent Editions
    The Local Cultures in the DDC: the Sardinian Language in recent editions Fabio Salis The class of 400 DDC deals with the classification of topics related to the language. The subdivisions covers individual languages and language families known or spoken in the world, incorporating them in the usual decimal division (Chan 2009). The division 450 is the most interesting for us since it covers Italian, Dalmatian, Romanian, Rhaetian, Sardinian and Corsican. The classification numbers assigned to the Sardinian language are 459.98, "Sardinian and Corsican”, plus 459 and 982, which are dedicated exclusively to Sardinian and have within them various references and specifications. The classification number 459 982 7, "Models historical and geographical, non-geographical variants modern", presents expansions for geographical variations in Sardinia, contained between 459.982 71 – 459.982 74. It uses the notation shown in Table 2 for the provinces and towns of Sardinia, as instructed in the addition note: "Add to 459 982 the numbers following -459 in notation 459 1-459 4 from Table 2. JLIS.it Vol. 6, n. 2 (May 2015) DOI: 10.4403/jlis.it- 10424 F. Salis, The Local Cultures in the DDC 1. The differences between language and dialect: the Sardinian problem The problem of the distinction between a language and a dialect is still an open question in modern linguistics, far from effective resolution. The main difficulty is the absence of specific and universally defined characteristics that could provide a solid distinction between the two. The status of language, now assigned to Sardinian, remains a rather uncertain concept. Quoting the famous Lithuanian linguist Max Weinreich, "a language is a dialect with an army and a navy”; according to this line of thought the distinction between a language and a dialect is mostly dictated by politics (Weinreich 1945, 13).

  • By Chiara Frigeni a Thesis Submitted in Conformity with the Requirements
    SONORANT RELATIONSHIPS IN TWO VARIETIES OF SARDINIAN by Chiara Frigeni A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Linguistics University of Toronto Copyright c 2009 by Chiara Frigeni Abstract Sonorant relationships in two varieties of Sardinian Chiara Frigeni Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Linguistics University of Toronto 2009 Phonological interactions among sonorant sounds, and between sonorants and obstruents, are widespread in Romance languages. In this dissertation, I examine in detail such interactions in two dialects of Sardinian (Italo-Romance), Campidanese and Nuorese, showing that sonorant relationships differentiate the synchronic grammars of these dialects. The synchronic patterning of nasals and liquids, and how these two sonorant subclasses interact with obstruents, is significantly different between the two dialects. In particular, nasals trigger phonological nasalization of vowels and of the rhotic in Campidanese but not in Nuorese. The arguments for a phonological analysis of vowel nasalization in Campidanese are reviewed, expanded, and tested against an acoustic study. The historical traces of interac- tion between /n/ and /r/ in this dialect are linked to the synchronic rhotic nasalization process highlighted by an acoustic study of fieldwork data. In Nuorese, on the other hand, /n/ does not initiate phonological nasalization either of vowels or of the rhotic, and it is the target of total assimilation when followed by any segments but an oral stop. Nasals in the two dialects thus pattern in two very different ways phonologically: nasals are process triggers in Campidanese and process targets in Nuorese. The rhotic also shows distinct patterns in the two dialects, interacting with /n/ in Campidanese and with /s/ in Nuorese.

This diversity has been thoroughly covered by linguistic atlases such as the Italian-Swiss Atlas (Jaberg / Jud 1928-1940), the Italian Linguistic Atlas (Bartoli et al. 1995), or the linguistic atlases of the Dolomites (Goebl 2003, 2012), Sicily (Sottile 2018), Calabria (Krefeld 2019) and the Piedmont mountains (Cugno / Cusan 2019), for which projects have undertaken to digitise a portion of the material (Tisato 2010) 1 .

  • Rule-Based Machine Translation for the Italian–Sardinian Language Pair
    The Prague Bulletin of Mathematical Linguistics NUMBER 108 JUNE 2017 221–232 Rule-Based Machine Translation for the Italian–Sardinian Language Pair Francis M. Tyers,ab Hèctor Alòs i Font,a Gianfranco Fronteddu,e Adrià Martín-Mord a UiT Norgga árktalaš universitehta, Tromsø, Norway b Arvutiteaduse instituut, Tartu Ülikool, Tartu, Estonia c Universitat de Barcelona, Barcelona d Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Barcelona e Università degli Studi di Cagliari, Cagliari Abstract This paper describes the process of creation of the first machine translation system from Italian to Sardinian, a Romance language spoken on the island of Sardinia in the Mediterranean. The project was carried out by a team of translators and computational linguists. The article focuses on the technology used (Rule-Based Machine Translation) and on some of the rules created, as well as on the orthographic model used for Sardinian. 1. Introduction This paper presents a shallow-transfer rule-based machine translation (MT) sys- tem from Italian to Sardinian, two languages of the Romance group. Italian is spoken in Italy, although it is an official language in countries like the Republic of Switzer- land, San Marino and Vatican City, and has approximately 58 million speakers, while Sardinian is spoken principally in Sardinia and has approximately one million speak- ers (Lewis, 2009). The objective of the project was to make a system for creating almost-translated text that needs post-editing before being publishable. For translating between closely- related languages where one language is a majority language and the other a minority or marginalised language, this is relevant as MT of post-editing quality into a lesser- resourced language can help with creating more text in that language.

  • Arrègulas: Oral Poetry and Minority Language Standardisation*
    Quaderni di Linguistica e Studi Orientali / Working Papers in Linguistics and Oriental Studies n. 5 (2019), pp. 477-495 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.13128/QULSO-2421-7220-25978 Arrègulas: Oral Poetry and Minority Language Standardisation* Rosangela Lai Georg-August-Universität Göttingen (<rosangela.lai@phil.uni-goettingen.de>) Abstract: Arrègulas is a proposal for the standardisation of Campidanese Sardin- ian approved by the Province of Cagliari, in 2009. It began as a reac- tion to the promotion by the Autonomous Region of Sardinia of one Logudorese-based standard language (Limba Sarda Comuna) to be used across the whole of Sardinia. What is peculiar about Arrègulas is that it is modelled after the koiné language employed by cantadoris, who are extemporaneous poets with a strong following in the Campidanese area. This koiné can be described as a form of Southern Campidanese deprived of its most marked features. The Arrègulas proposal gives this oral language a standard orthography with a comparatively straightfor- ward phoneme-grapheme correspondence. All things considered, the standard has potential for a higher degree of acceptability with respect to Limba Sarda Comuna in the Campidanese area, both among proficient native speakers and among the many heritage speakers of Sardinian. Keywords: Arrègulas, minority language education, oral poetry, Sardin- ian, Standard Campidanese 1. Introduction A standardization effort of a minority language is met with all the ob- stacles and challenges intrinsic to standardization in itself, plus the extra difficulties that come with dealing with so vulnerable a thing as a minority language. In Europe, many if not most minority languages, in spite of enjoy- * The author is grateful to the Alexander von Humboldt-Stiftung/Foundation for fi- nancial support of this work.
