Abstract

Abstract:This research aims to investigate the innovative use of the subject clitic pronouns lo, la, le in attributive predications, e.g. O xabe lašo lo "The dinner is good," in Romani spoken in the State of Veracruz, Mexico. The analysis of a 15-hour conversational corpus in Romani shows that the Romani copula si is used in variation with the subject clitic pronouns in l-in third person, affirmative clauses. In addition, 60 Romani-Spanish bilinguals from Veracruz responded to a contextualized copula choice task. Generalized linear mixed effect models were constructed to analyse the results. The analysis shows that the clitics are extremely dynamic in third person affirmative sentences and further reveals the linguistic variables that determine their use.

在墨西哥讲的罗马尼语中，系词si“to be”和l-clitics之间的变化

摘要：本研究旨在调查主格群代词lo，la，le在定语从句中的创新用法，例如墨西哥韦拉克鲁斯州使用的罗姆语中的O xabe lašO lo“the dinner is good”。对一个15小时的罗马尼语会话语料库的分析表明，在第三人称肯定从句中，罗马尼语系词si与主格-集团代词发生了变化。此外，来自韦拉克鲁斯州的60名罗姆-西班牙语双语者对语境化的系词选择任务做出了回应。建立了广义线性混合效应模型对结果进行分析。分析表明，在第三人称肯定句中，助词是极其动态的，并进一步揭示了决定助词使用的语言变量。

期刊介绍： Founded in 1888, the Journal of the Gypsy Lore Society was published in four series up to 1982. In 2000, the journal became Romani Studies. On behalf of the Gypsy Lore Society, Romani Studies features articles on many different communities which, regardless of their origins and self-appellations in various languages, have been referred to in English as Gypsies. These communities include the descendants of migrants from the Indian subcontinent which have been considered as falling into three large subdivisions, Dom, Lom, and Rom. The field has also included communities of other origins which practice, or in the past have practiced, a specific type of service nomadism. The journal publishes articles in history, anthropology, ethnography, sociology, linguistics, art, literature, folklore and music, as well as reviews of books and audiovisual materials.
