22. Romance in contact with Romance
-
Kim Schulte
Abstract
This chapter examines three contact situations between Romance languages: (a) a long-term contact situation, between Spanish and the Valencian variety of Catalan, that has been ongoing for centuries, (b) a recently established, migrationbased contact situation between Romanian on the one hand and Spanish as well as Valencian on the other, and (c) an established contact situation involving Portuguese and Spanish in the New World, on the border between Uruguay and Brazil. In addition to providing relevant sociohistorical and sociolinguistic information, the main focus lies on contact-induced structural changes, given that the structural similarity of (closely) related languages is likely to facilitate such processes.
