Issue Date: | 2004 | Publisher: | John Benjamins Publishing Company | Type: | article | Journal: | Studies in Language | Call Number: | Originale conservato presso il Centro Studi Somali (http://host.uniroma3.it/centri/CentroStudiSomali/index.php) | Issue Number: | 1 | Pages: | 83-104 | Abstract: | The author explores the linguistic strategy in Somali language which recurs to noun incorporation to ensure a generic-object reading - as there is
no object pronoun of 3rd person. Qoraagu wuxuu falanqaynayaa qayb ka mid ah dhismaha Af-soomaaliga, gaar ahaan arrinta la xiriirta maqnaashaha magacuyaalka layeelaha ee qofka saddexaad (lab & dheddig, keli iyo wadar). L'autore esplora la strategia linguistica del somalo che ricorre all'incorporazione nominale al fine di garantire una lettura generica dell'oggetto - dal momento che il pronome oggetto di terza persona non è esplicitato. |
