La formazione delle parole in sardo

Title: Sardinian word formation This is the first systematic work on the formation of words in Sardinian after M. L. Wagner’s publication of 1952. The topic is dealt with both diachronically and synchronically according to the latest theoretical and descriptive techniques of contemporary morphology. The work provides a reference tool not only for linguists, Romance philologists and dialectologists but also for anyone working in the field of linguistic planning. It is also a useful reference text for teachers or anyone interested in furthering their knowledge of the lexicon and derivative morphology of Sardinian. The text has 10 chapters: 1. Introduction; 2.Composition; 3. Suffixation; 4. Prefixation; 5. Defective Circumfixation; 6. Conversion; 7. Retroformation; 8. Inherited stratum forms; 9. Exogenous formation; 10. Conclusions and research prospects.
