| Summary: | This study traces the development of the Noun + Verb compositional pattern, e.g., Latin manutenere , in four western Romance languages, providing listings of medieval and modern examples. The pattern has disappeared from literary French and Spanish, yet continues to show surprising vitality in Catalan, the dialects of Occitan, and even in non-standardized varieties of northern Gallo-Romance. |
