Abstract
The aim of this article is to illustrate the Mòcheno language through a discussion of the histor-ical development of the Mòcheno community, the etymology of the word Mòcheno, an over-view of its key phonological, morphological, syntactic and lexical properties. It will be shown that the Mòcheno language is a conservative variety exhibiting typical traits of Middle-High German (1050–1350), which belongs to the Southern Bavariandialects group. The contact with Romance varieties can surely be found but is to beconsidered marginal.File in questo prodotto:
