Module:category tree/poscatboiler/data/lang-specific/it

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary

This module handles generating the descriptions and categorization for Italian category pages of the format "Italian LABEL" where LABEL can be any text. Examples are Category:Bulgarian conjugation 2.1 verbs and Category:Russian velar-stem neuter-form nouns. This module is part of the poscatboiler system, which is a general framework for generating the descriptions and categorization of category pages.

For more information, see Module:category tree/poscatboiler/data/lang-specific/documentation.

NOTE: If you add a new language-specific module, you must add the language code to the list at the top of Module:category tree/poscatboiler/data/lang-specific in order for the module to be recognized.

labels["terms with voicing of Latin /-p t k-/"] = {
	description = "Several well-established Italian words show voicing of Latin /p t k/ to /b d ɡ/ between vowels, after a vowel and before /r/, and occasionally in other environments as well. (If this produces an intervocalic /b/, it subsequently turns to /v/.) Some of them are verifiable borrowings from Western Romance varieties, especially those spoken in northern Italy, where this sort of voicing is regular. There are, however, counterexamples such as [[fegato]], where voicing only applied to one of the possible segments; or [[lattuga]], where a geminate consonant is preserved; or [[codesto]], which lacks cognates out of Tuscan. This suggests that many of the words in question were simply taken from peripheral Tuscan dialects which do show such voicing—but not degemination of Latin /pp tt kk/—including ones with a preference for leniting /k/ rather than /p t/ (''Oxford guide to the Romance languages'', p. 212).",

labels["terms with unexpected vowel outcomes"] = {
	description = [[
Most of these fall into one of two categories:
* Proparoxytones (words with the structure [-ˈσσσ]), where some kind of modification occurred in the syllable following the stressed one, perhaps reflecting an earlier trend of vowel reduction in that position.
* A following {{ic|/l/}}, perhaps in early Tuscan {{ic|[ɫ]}}, may have exerted a 'velarizing' influence on preceding vowels in that position.
* Adverbs where an original {{ic|/-e/}} has been replaced by {{ic|/-i/}}, perhaps by analogy with those with etymological {{ic|/-i/}}, such as {{m|it|ieri}}, {{m|it|fuori}} < Latin {{m|la|herī}}, {{m|la|forīs}}.]],
