Italian Language - Science topic

I'm having difficulties finding academic articles or chapters on the linguistic phenomenon of "erre moscia" in the Italian language. My partner (Italian) has this linguistic feature, and is having an oral language exam in C1 level Norwegian, where the rhotics are important for inteligibility. I would like him to have something on hand to explain that it is merely a matter of not being able to produce rhotics, that he uses an approximant in it's place, and that his competence in Norwegian is otherwise not affected.

I am launching a discussion on my interview-lecture "Il dramma della condizione umana nell'opera di Platone. (La idea del mal en Platón)"

The Web-address of my interview "Il dramma della condizione umana nell'opera di Platone. (La idea del mal en Platón)" is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Enba6HUJS84 The interview is in Italian with English and Spanish subtitles.

The interview was organised by Professor Tayron Alberto Achury Torres of the Universidad Nacional Abierta y a Distancia - UNAD Colombia, Bogotá D.C.

As in French le/la, in German der/die/das & other languages, thera are genders for words & so articles in some languages. Grammaticaly gender for words are complete redundancy !? Governments have to cancel them offically as soon as possible so that people can learn those languages easily also. One of the reason English almost became universal language is due to being genderless for words !

"It's an inheritance from our distant past. Researchers believe that Proto-Indo-European had two genders: animate and inanimate. It can also, in some cases, make it easier to use pronouns clearly when you're talking about multiple objects."

“A person’s mouth, neck, bosom, elbows, fingers, nails, feet, and body are of the male sex, and his head is male or neuter according to the word selected to signify it, and not according to the sex of the individual who wears it! A person’s nose, lips, shoulders, breast, hands, and toes are of the female sex; and his hair, ears, eyes, chin, legs, knees, heart, and conscience haven’t any sex at all…”

Hi colleagues!

I am a PhD student in linguistics and am looking for volunteer participants who would like to take part in my study of cross-cultural pragmatics.

I am looking for native speakers of English, Spanish and Italian and for trilingual speakers of both English and Italian and Spanish.

To collaborate with my project all you need to do is complete an online questionnaire. Please, contact me by Researchgate.

Thank you for your help and I am available for any question or curiosity you may have about the project.

Thank you very much indeed.

I must write an article in which I have to compare contemporary understanding of oikology with biblical understanding of the matter but I had a really hard time finding bibliography. I could really use a little help if anyone has any recommendations on writings on the matter. It would be very helpful anything on biblical/ancient oikology written preferably in Romanian/English/German/Italian language.

Thank you.

Looking for Group Theory books in Italian. Some suggestions?

Would you have any suggestions for bibliography on the grammar of the Italian language? Would you have any suggestions for bibliography on the grammaticography of Italian ? I have investigated how the Italian standardization process took place through grammars.

My thesis is about Miscommunication, confusion and impoliteness in second/foreign language classroom. For this research, I need to gather data from classroom interaction. Here are three questionnaires about interaction in the classroom of English/Spanish and Italian as FL/SL. Please could you share them with language students? Your cooperation is highly appreciated. For any question, please do not hesitate to contact me: cristina.gadaleta@hud.ac.uk English: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdIQyN4ikkpIQ7eNM7il6vTxNP78SltxQlo4Z7SloQacGJNvw/viewform?usp=sf_link Spanish: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf9Ib2iPNXhgzDNgKriwbiODAXweLNAkyVv48Al_0sAIo0KoA/viewform?usp=sf_link Italian: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScRediqYPWzdV2Yj4WqUpGFUxDlZ1Yo6c_3Sq7kCVapXjsHZw/viewform?usp=sf_link

In the Romance languages, many syntactic contexts, especially in subordinate clauses, require a subjunctive mood on the verb, not leaving any romm for mood choice. In other contexts, however, there is a choice between subjunctive and indicative depending on the semantics a speaker may want to convey. I'm interested in research on the statistics of these two types. What is the percentage of syntactically triggered vs. modal subjunctive use in Spanish (or other Romance languages)? What are the percentages in the written language as opposed to spontaneous spoken discourse? Is there published research on this? On what criteria could such a statistical analysis be based, given that there is an important intermediate group of cases, where many speakers might already consider the subjunctive obligatory while others might still see some room for variation?

I need some kind of babble noise audio recordings, possibly in Italian language, to study the performance of my Speaker Recognition engine. Can someone give me some help to find it ? Thanks in advance.
