Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides an etymology of German elements within Old French and Old Provençal, the two major medieval Romance languages spoken in France. It is one of the most comprehensive lexicons to date on the subject, as it includes not only typically included loanwords, but also loanwords from Old English, Old Norse, or Old Saxon, all languages showing up in various forms in modern English. The author pays close attention to the chronological and geographical spread of these loanwords, as well as to the linguistic processes they underwent as they integrated into the sound systems of French and Provençal. The authorâs approach provides insight into when and how these languages came into contact, what the historical conditions were that favored borrowing, and how this interaction shaped their development and evolution. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780366689156_0
