During the Middle Ages, a new verb class was formed within the Catalan 2nd conjugation, characterized by the presence of a velar augment (/g/ or /sk/) in the L-pattern (first-person present indicative and present subjunctive) and PYTA (preterite, old conditional and imperfect subjunctive). In this paper, we study three verbs that avoided, totally o...

En este trabajo, analizamos el proceso de velarización que experimentan los participios de la segunda conjugación en catalán. De acuerdo con la conexión morfómica existente entre el morfoma PyTA (es decir, perfecto y tiempos afines) y el participio (Wheeler 2011: 205), este último debería adoptar la misma extensión velar que presenta el PyTA de un...

In Old Catalan, some verbs like beure ‘to drink’ display a velar consonant in the forms that come from Latin perfectum, such as 3sg.prt *ˈbibwit > bec [ˈbek] ‘s/he drank’. This velar was initially a perfect marker. However, the consonant spread analogically from perfective to imperfective forms through an exaptation process. In the present paper, w...

In Old Catalan, verbs as beure ‘to drink’ or moldre ‘to grind’, which had a Latin strong perfect in -UI-, presented a velar extension only in the PyTA morphome (acronym of perfecto y tiempos afines ‘perfect and related tenses’): 3rd *BIBUIT > bec ‘s/he drank’, 3rd MOLUIT > molc ‘s/he ground’. In contrast, the L-pattern forms, comprising the first p...

In Old Catalan, a velar extension appears initially in the PyTA morphome of verbs that presented a strong perfect in -U- in Latin (Pérez Saldanya 1998; Wheeler 2011): verbs like beure ‘to drink’ (e.g., 3rd BIBUIT > bec ‘s/he drank’), deure ‘to owe’ (e.g., 3rd DEBUIT > dec ‘s/he owed’), moldre ‘to grind’ (e.g., 3rd MOLUIT > molc ‘s/he ground’) or va...

In this paper I analyze, departing from a corpus comprising works ranging from the 13th to the 19th century, the intraparadigmatic velarization process underwent by verbs like deure ‘to owe’ or valdre ‘to cost’. In this verb subclass, /g/ extension spreads from tenses coming from Latin perfect theme (3rd dēbuit > dec ‘s/he owed’) towards the first...

The evolution of the 5th person verbal morpheme from TIS > ts to u [w] (CANTĀTIS > cantats > cantau) is a defining feature of Catalan, as it systematically occurs in all 5th person forms of all verbs. The replacement of the ending -ts by -u begins in medieval Catalan and takes a long time to consolidate graphically. In this paper, we analyze, from...

In this paper, we analyze the subclass of Catalan inchoative verbs, which belongs to the third conjugation. We apply the exaptation concept (Lass 1990) to explain the changes involved in the reuse of non-functional morphological material: regarding inchoative verbs, the process of exaptation consists in the recycling of a lexical affix as a root in...

In this paper, we analyze the expansion of the velar affix /ɡ/ in Catalan, which becomes the mark of a verbal subclass of the second conjugation. The velar originated either from the final consonant of the present theme: dico > dic 'I say', or from the consonantization of the aspectual mark of verbs with a strong perfect in-ui-: dēbuit > dec >> deg...

In this research paper, we analyse several aspects of the historical verbal morphology of Catalan. Through a volume of the Saint Vincent Ferrer’s Sermons, we will study the state of language that present, at the beginning of the 15th century, the first-person marks of indicative present and the singular persons of subjunctive present. The theoretic...

Desde el comienzo de los noventa ha habido un interés creciente por aplicar principios la teoría de la evolución al cambio lingüístico. Así, Lass (1988) utilizó el concepto de exaptación, proveniente de la biología evolutiva, para explicar los cambios que se producían en los márgenes de los sistemas lingüísticos y que consistían en la reutilización...
