In particular, it attempts to improve upon previous descriptive/ethnographic works by analyzing the several strata present in the Somali lexicon from the perspective of the dichotomy between intrinsic and borrowed elements. Daraasaaskan waxaa lagu baadigoobayaa taariikhdii hore ee Geeska Afrika, iyadoo la adeegsanaya baaris cilmi-afeed iyo mid taariikheed. Questo studio cerca di applicare un metodo che impiega strumenti linguistici insieme ad altri metodi storici per ricostruire l'antica storia del Corno d'Africa. In particolare, tenta di migliorare i precedenti lavori descrittivi/etnografici analizzando i diversi strati presenti nel lessico somalo dal punto di vista della dicotomia tra elementi intrinsechi e quelli presi in prestito. |
