Reichenau Glossary

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Nicodene (talk | contribs) at 01:54, 15 August 2020. The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.


The Reichenau Glosses were compiled in the 8th century in Picardy[1][2] to help monks reading the Vulgate Bible understand words that had either gone extinct or developed a new meaning in their dialect of Romance. Each of these was glossed by a synonym written in Latin form, though not always of Latin origin.[3]

In the table below, obviously non-native words such as Italian formaggio (which was borrowed from French) are not counted among the derivatives. All of the Romance words, unless otherwise specified, are stressed on the same syllable as the Proto-Romance form. Sounds that may or may not be present in a word- depending on dialect, phonetic context, etc.- are shown in subscript.

  1. ^ The [js] ending is of uncertain origin. It may have been taken from *trasjo < Classical Latin transeo 'I cross'.[4] The resulting *vawsjo would then yield vois by regular developments.
  2. ^ Old Spanish had [βo], as expected. The origin of the later [j] is debated. It may either reflect O.Sp y 'there' or be the result of contamination from the following pronoun in the phrase vo-yo 'I go'.[5]
  3. ^ Compound of porcu 'pig' and abru < Pr. apru 'boar'.
  4. ^ Which, combined with the definite article al, was borrowed into Spanish as [alˈkaθaɾ].
  5. ^ With remnants of the prefix ex.[11]
  6. ^ Initial consonant probably taken from Latin perdix, 'partridge'.[13]
  7. ^ Variant of O.Fr [vɛspəs] (from CL vespas) with the initial consonant taken from the Frankish word.[14] Germanic /w/ was borrowed into Romance as /gw/.[15]
  8. ^ In the Sursilvan dialect, masculine singular -s survives as a predicative ending in adjectives. E.g. il paun ei cars 'the bread is expensive'.[17]
  9. ^ Unexpected [i] due to influence from unrelated chemin 'path, way' via folk-etymology.[24]
  10. ^ Future stem of aller 'to go'.
  11. ^ With spontaneous and irregular nasalization.[25]
    Old Portuguese had the expected form [si].
  12. ^ Still refers to a measure of land in some dialects.[26]
  13. ^ [ad] possibly taken from O.Sp granada.[27]
  14. ^ With spontaneous and irregular nasalization.[25]
  15. ^ Nasalization came from an /n/ that was added in Middle French, under the influence of CL monstrare.[29]
  16. ^ Restoration of intervocalic /p/ possibly the result of onomatopoeia for the fluttering of a butterfly's wings.[30]
  17. ^ Later replaced by dim. [klaˈβɛl] in order to distinguish it from [klaw] 'key'.
  1. ^ In O.Fr the initial vowel of this verb could be either [a] or [ɛ] depending on stress. Consider the following examples:
    Pr. [ˈaːmat] 'he loves' > [ˈajməθ] > [ˈɛmə]
    Pr. [aˈmaːta] 'beloved' > [aˈmæðə] > [aˈmɛə]
    Subsequently [ɛ] spread to all conjugations, resulting in modern French [ɛme] 'beloved' instead of *[ame].[16]
  2. ^ Modern [despoxaɾon]
  3. ^ Modern chiodo, influenced by chiudure 'to shut'.
  4. ^ Final -s drawn by analogy from adverbs that already ended with this sound in Latin, such as mielz, mais < melius, magis.[31]
  5. ^ There is a single attestation of the participle envengud in Old French. The word is otherwise nowhere to be found.
  6. ^ Modern [kuɾtinɐ], without palatal [ɲ], possibly borrowed from neighboring languages or Latin.
  7. ^ Devoicing from v to f is unusual and of disputed origin.
  8. ^ The expected outcome would have been [ʁɛmə]. The modern form appears to have taken its initial vowel from the original diminutive rameau, where the a was unstressed and hence did not change to [ɛ].[34]
  9. ^ Replaced in most dialects, including the standard, with toupeira < talparia.
  10. ^ Modern Italian has [nwo'taːɾe], which is an unexpected form. Its origin lies in rhizotonic conjugations of notare, where the initial vowel was diphthongized to [wɔː]. This diphthong later spread to arrhizotonic forms by analogy.[36]
  11. ^ Diminutive of ueru. Geminate r taken from ferru 'iron'.[37]
  12. ^ Back-formation from O.Fr plural [veroʎts] > [verus].[38] The expected outcome of [veroʎ] would have been *[vɛʁuj], cf. fenouil < *fenuclu.
  13. ^ Modern [θeroxo], whose initial consonant was taken from cerrar 'to shut'.[39]
  14. ^ Modern [fɨʁoʎu], whose initial consonant was taken from ferro 'iron'.[39]
