The Romance LanguagesCambridge University Press, 5 de set. 1996 - 376 pàgines What is a Romance language? How is it related to other Romance languages, how did they all evolve, and what can they tell us about language in general?

Her discussion is extensively illustrated with new and original data, and an up-to-date and comprehensive bibliography is included. |
