Download or read book Prepositional Clauses in Spanish written by Manuel Delicado Cantero and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2013-07-31 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an analysis of Spanish prepositional clauses () - complement and adverbial clauses. The goal is to examine the syntax and evolution of those clauses and their components in Spanish, contrasting them with other European languages. Prepositional argument and adjunct clauses are grammatical in present-day Spanish. However, Medieval Spanish only attests the latter; the former were not frequent until the 16th/17th centuries. Both types are examined in their syntactic evolution and properties, including clausal nominality, argumenthood, nature of prepositions, and optionality. Latin and Portuguese, French, and Italian - both in their present-day and past forms - are studied and compared to Spanish. Likewise, several Germanic languages are surveyed. These languages show variable grammatical degrees of . The comparison reveals aspects which challenge the commonly accepted conclusions about the clausal patterns of each language. This study offers a novel approach to the analysis of Spanish prepositional clauses by looking at its properties and formation not only from within but also in contrast with other languages. It argues for cross-linguistically valid categories and explanations in order to comprehend the properties of human language.

Download or read book Syntactical Dictionary of Spanish Prepositions and Verbs written by Dee Eldredge and published by . This book was released on 2017-05-12 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foreign language dictionaries give meanings of verbs and prepositions, but they do not tell the reader how to use them very well. That is what this dictionary does. It furnishes the user three items: (1) most of the syntactical constructions that a verb or a preposition allows, (2) sample sentences both in Spanish and English of each verb's possible usages, and (3) each verb's conjugations, so that those wanting to know how to conjugate a verb do not have to go to another source to look up its conjugations. (It should be noted that the definition of a preposition is expanded here to include many words that traditionally have been called "adverbs.") It can be a very useful tool for students learning Spanish to help them put together sentences. It can also be very helpful for Spanish teachers and linguists to learn of a very creative way to explain syntax.
