Possessive adjectives with and without articles
According to the grammars of contemporary Piedmontese (based on the variety of Turin), the use of possessive adjectives with definite articles is restricted to the plural masculine ij mè lìber ‘my books, lit. the my books’, in contrast with such forms as mè lìber ‘my book’ (singular masculine), mia ca ‘my house’ (singular feminine) and mie ca ‘my houses’ (plural feminine). This behaviour of the masculine plural may be attributed to a functional n…
Sugli aggettivi verbali in occitano

Partitive determiners in Piedmontese
This paper addresses the use of partitive determiners in Piedmontese as a case in point for the interplay of language variation and change in Italo-Romance. Firstly, a brief diachronic account will be provided of the development of partitive determiners in Piedmontese, ranging from the twelfth and thirteenth centuries to the nineteenth and twentieth centuries; such an overview will rely upon the results of recent studies on this subject. Next, th…
On this side of the Alps
This contribution offers a sociolinguistic overview of Francoprovençal (FP) in northwestern Italy. Some aspects of the vitality of FP in Piedmont and Valle d'Aosta, as well as the linguistic repertoires of the two communities, are outlined in the first part of the article, while a selection of phenomena arising from contact between FP and Piedmontese is discussed in the second
Standardization patterns and dialect/standard convergence
This article is inspired by the typology of "dialect/standard constellations" outlined in Auer (2005, 2011), which aims to detect common dynamics in the current processes of dialect/standard convergence in Europe. The specific sociolinguistic situation addressed in this article involves Italian, Piedmontese, and Occitan in Piedmont, a northwestern region of Italy. We analyze a set of linguistic features with the aim of depicting the dynamics of i…
Language Change and Areal Linguistics
The aim of this paper is to present a small selection of linguistic facts that describe currents and contrasts in the Cisalpine Valleys, relying on some ALEPO [Atlante Linguistico ed Etnografico del Piemonte Occidentale – Linguistic and Ethnographic Atlas of Western Piedmont] data. The area investigated is characterized by a close relationship between different languages and cultures. As it is well known, the Gallo-Italic languages of Piedmont ar…
