Description
Abstract (cited)
This paper discusses some syntactic features of the Welsh translation of the Gesta Romanorum, which was produced in the sixteenth century on the basis of an English source. It belongs to the transitional period of Early Modern Welsh and appears to show traces of linguistic influence of the English source. The features selected for discussion here are (i) word-order patterns, (ii) the use of object pronouns, and (iii) the syntax of relative and copula clauses.
