On Double Clitics in Interrogatives in a Northern Italian Dialect
Nordlyd: Tromsø University Working Papers on Language & Linguistics, 2007 Following recent studies (see for instance Poletto 2000) on the higher functional field, in this paper I aim to give a contribution to the cartography of the CP projection, by examining the behaviour of subject and object clitics in the Northern Italian ...

Expletive Subject Clitics in Northern Italo-Romance
Languages, 2022 This article examines the syntax of subject clitics in northern Italian dialects. Statistical analysis is performed on a sample of 350 dialects to show that the co-variation between syntactic variables is significant.

Syntactic analyses of discourse particles through the microvariation of Basque ote
Glossa, 2020 In this article I look into dialectal data related to Basque discourse particles and I provide evidence that topics discussed in the literature on discourse particles can also be addressed within Basque microvariation.

Micro-Contact in Southern Italy: Language Change in Southern Lazio under Pressure from Italian
Languages, 2022 This paper explores a novel case of contact-induced change due to micro-contact within Italy, where various Italo-Romance languages coexist (Standard Italian, Italiano Regionale ‘regional Italian’, and numerous local languages).

ON THE RELIABILITY OF MICROVARIABILITY TESTS IN QUASARS [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2014 Microvariations probe the physics and internal structure of quasars. Unpredictability and small flux variations make this phenomenon elusive and difficult to detect. Variance based probes such as the C and F tests, or a combination of both, are popular methods to compare the light-curves of the quasar and a comparison star.

Glossa, 2020 This paper investigates dialectal microvariation across the Spanish-speaking world in terms of the presence/absence of que in sí-que contexts. The function of this construction is to signal the speaker’s commitment to the truth of the proposition.

Variation in Kimakunduchi and Standard Swahili:Insights from verbal morphosyntax
Linguistique et Langues Africaines, 2022 This paper explores variation between Kimakunduchi and Standard Swahili with a focus on verbal morphosyntax. With several varieties of Swahili identified and described over the years, here we focus on the Kimakunduchi variety spoken in the south-east of ...

Variation in differential object marking: On some differences between Spanish and Romanian
Open Linguistics, 2020 Although differential object marking (DOM) has been studied from a multitude of perspectives, research into the types of variation it allows in closely related languages is still needed.

OPTICAL MICROVARIABILITY IN QUASARS: SPECTRAL VARIABILITY [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2010 We present a method that we developed to discern where the optical microvariability (OM) in quasars originates: in the accretion disk (related to thermal processes) or in the jet (related to non-thermal processes). Analyzing nearly simultaneous observations in three different optical bands of continuum emission, we are able to determine the origin of ...
