The Indo-European Languages
The Indo-European Languages presents a comprehensive survey of the individual languages and language subgroups within this language family. With over four hundred languages and dialects and almost three billion native speakers, the Indo-European language family is the largest of the recognized language groups and includes most of the major current languages of Europe, the Iranian plateau and the Indian subcontinent. Written by an international te…

The Indo-European Languages
The Indo-European languages are a family of several hundred languages and dialects including most of the major languages of Europe as well as many in West, Central and Southern Asia. Indo-European is the largest family of languages in the world today, with its languages being spoken by approximately three billion native speakers. This comprehensive reference explores the way in which different cultures use language, as well as the major features …
Typology and Second Language Acquisition
In recent years increasing emphasis on typological research has triggered a growing interest in the implications of typological findings on second language acquisition (SLA).
The development of adversative connectives in Italian: Stages and factors at play
In this paper we propose a model through stages for the development of interclausal adversative connectives, based on the qualitative and quantitative exam of the three Italian connectives però, tuttavia and mentre. The main purpose of this study is the identification of the respective roles played by frequency, syntax and context in the development of the adversative function. In the analysis of each of the three diachronic paths at issue, we ke…
Typological Universals and Second Language Acquisition
Persistence and Renewal in the Relative Pronoun Paradigm: The Case of Italian
Grammaticalization of Modality in Language Acquisition
The present study aims to provide empirical evidence for a number of claims concerning the grammaticalization of deontic and epistemic modality. It is based on results from a research project on the acquisition of Italian as a second language conventionally called the "Pavia Project". The organization is as follows: first, the relevance of Second Language Acquisition for linguistic theory and — conversely — the relevance of linguistic theory for …
Functional typology and strategies of clause connection in second-language acquisition
In this study it is argued that typological generalizations based on the way languages code the relationships between two semantically connected clauses may shed light on the development of clause combining in the untutored acquisition of a second language by adult learners. An implicational hierarchy where semantic integration between states of affairs is correlated with the use of verb forms explicitly marked as dependent has been adopted and p…

The Development of Romance Clitic Pronouns: From Latin to Old Romance
Papers from the 7th International Conference on Historical Linguistics
Linguistic Reconstruction and Indo-European Syntax: Proceedings of the Colloquium of the 'Indogermanische Gesellschaft'. University of Pavia, 6–7 September 1979
The aim of the colloquium, from which this volume derives, was to bring together approaches from general linguistics and language reconstruction, to show how these can benefit from eachother. Although the focus was on Indo-European languages, other language families were present in the discussion, as typological insights may provide useful parallels to IE phenomena and problems. At the core of the discussion was the methodological problem of indu…
