Basing her study on detailed new data collected during extensive fieldwork, and focusing on finite verb movement; on multiple access to the left periphery; on pro licensing and on the distribution of OV/ VO word orders, the author refutes the traditional view that the syntactic variation found in Mòcheno is due to the presence of two competing grammars as a consequence of contact with Romance varieties and accounts for the peculiarities of Mòcheno syntax. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 German language|xDialects|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85054374|zItaly|zFersina River Valley.|0https:/ /id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh98003071-781 650 0 German language|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85054365|xGrammar|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99004914|xSyntax.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005599 650 0 German language|xVerb.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2008105226 650 7 German language|xDialects.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/941456 650 7 German language|xGrammar.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/941527 650 7 Grammar, Comparative and general|xSyntax.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/946258 650 7 German language.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 941408 650 7 German language|xVerb.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /941779 651 7 Italy|zFersina River Valley.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1284702 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aCognola, Federica.|tSyntactic Variation and Verb Second : A German Dialect in Northern Italy. |dAmsterdam/Philadelphia : John Benjamins Publishing Company, ©2013|z9789027255846 830 0 Linguistik Aktuell/Linguistics Today. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=525522|zOnline eBook.
