This project investigates the interaction of stress (accent) and syntax in a group of closely related Romance languages, including Aragonese, Gascon, Majorcan and Menorcan Catalan, Sardinian, and several Southern and Northern Italian varieties. Data on the stress and word-order patterns of sentences involving pronominal clitics associated with the verb will be gathered from existing published descriptions, and from fieldwork in which consultants will be asked for translations from the most closely related majority (standard) language that they also speak (Spanish, Catalan, French or Italian). A database of the stress and word-order patterns will be constructed from the digital audio recordings of these fieldwork sessions. The study of the stress patterns on the pronominal clitics in these languages is particularly significant because the clitics in the standard Romance languages (e.g. the "les" [them] in French "Je les vois" [I see them]) are unstressed. In addition, the study of these phenomena will further illuminate the principles of interaction between phonology, morphology and syntax, a particularly difficult area of theoretical linguistic study. Finally, the database and recordings that this research will produce will be publicly-accessible repositories of information about a wide range of lesser-known Romance languages, many of which are in danger of disappearing by the end of this century.

这个项目调查了一组密切相关的罗曼语中重音(重音)和句法的相互作用，包括阿拉贡语、加斯孔语、马略坎语和梅诺坎加泰罗尼亚语、撒丁语以及几种南意大利语和北意大利语。关于涉及与动词相关的代词缩略的句子的重音和语序模式的数据将从现有出版的描述中收集，并从实地调查中收集，其中将要求顾问从他们也说的最密切相关的大多数(标准)语言(西班牙语、加泰罗尼亚语、法语或意大利语)进行翻译。将根据这些实地考察会议的数字音频录音，建立重音和语序模式的数据库。对这些语言中代词的重音模式的研究具有特别重要的意义，因为标准罗曼语中的代词的重音模式(如法语“Je les vois”[我看到他们]中的“les”[Them])是不重读的。此外，对这些现象的研究将进一步阐明语音、词法和句法之间的相互作用原理，这是理论语言学研究的一个特别困难的领域。最后，这项研究将产生的数据库和录音将是公开访问的关于各种鲜为人知的罗曼蒂克语言的信息储存库，其中许多语言在本世纪末面临消失的危险。
