Abstract

The fate of two languages in the Balkans under conditions of language contact is discussed here. These languages, representing different branches of the Romance family, are the Ibero-Romance language Judezmo from the eastern branch and the South Danubian language Aromanian from the western branch. Both have been subject to intense contact with other languages in the Balkans but they show differential outcomes of this contact and thus differential degrees of involvement in the Balkan sprachbund. We document the similarities and differences in these outcomes, offer an explanation of their causes, and discuss the consequences they have for understanding the Balkan sprachbund.

巴尔干半岛的东西方罗曼语——多瑙河罗曼语与犹太语的对比与启示

在语言接触的条件下，两种语言在巴尔干地区的命运将在这里讨论。这些语言代表了罗曼语家族的不同分支，伊比利亚-罗曼语(Judezmo)来自东部分支，南多瑙河语言(Aromanian)来自西部分支。这两种语言都与巴尔干地区的其他语言密切接触，但它们在这种接触中表现出不同的结果，因此在巴尔干地区的参与程度也不同。我们记录了这些结果的异同，解释了它们的原因，并讨论了它们对理解巴尔干半岛分裂的影响。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Language Contact (JLC) is a peer-reviewed open access journal. It focuses on the study of language contact, language use and language change in accordance with a view of language contact whereby both empirical data (the precise description of languages and how they are used) and the resulting theoretical elaborations (hence the statement and analysis of new problems) become the primary engines for advancing our understanding of the nature of language. This involves linguistic, anthropological, historical, and cognitive factors. Such an approach makes a major new contribution to understanding language change at a time when there is a notable increase of interest and activity in this field. The Journal of Language Contact accepts articles in English and French.
