ladin question

[edit]

I've seen you've based yourself on Hull's thesis in fusing rhaeto-romance and gallo-italic (as well as istriot) on most wiktionary pages. Is it actually consensual? Checking on google scholar only brings up 23 citations, which isn't a lot for a 40 years old thesis. 92.88.170.251 92.88.170.251 15:57, 3 January 2025 (UTC) just to be clear, i wasn't signed in when writing thatΟυώρντΑρτ (talk)Reply

Separating them isn’t a matter of consensus either (see: Questione Ladina). As far as I am aware, there are zero innovations that unite Romansh, Friulian, and Ladin which are not also attested in neighbouring Gallo-Italic. Nicodene (talk) 23:07, 3 January 2025 (UTC)Reply

It would not be a second independent episode. My use of "also" meant as an alternative, roughly equally likely and equally un(dis)provable scenario, not as an addition to the same scenario. — 2600:4808:9C31:4800:7CF5:7CB:5C36:C8C0 00:16, 10 January 2025 (UTC)Reply

If it is not independent of dunc, then one has to account for dunc as some kind of secondary development from *dunquam. The problem is that dunc is attested no less than eight times („achtmal“) in Roman inscriptions, and *dunquam zero times. Nicodene (talk) 03:08, 10 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
