Este libro estudia las voces amerindias prehispánicas, procedentes del ámbito de la alimentación, incorporadas a veintitrés lenguas europeas. Los préstamos son de las lenguas taína, caribe, náhuatl, quechua y aimara.

El contacto entre español y catalán ha sido estudiado, casi siempre, desde la perspectiva de la influencia que el español ejerce sobre el catalán. En cambio, en pocas ocasiones se ha abordado el estudio de las huellas del catalan presentes en el español utilizado en Cataluña. Este volumen tiene su origen en los trabajos de investigacion realizados en el seno del proyecto El español en contacto con el catalan: variacion diatopica y bilinguismo que se inicio en 2012 y su objetivo principal ha sido contribuir a establecer las caracteristicas foneticas, lexicas y morfosintacticas del español de Cataluña. El perfil de los miembros del equipo investigador condujo a centrar los estudios realizados en dos ambitos: la pronunciacion y el lexico, especialmente el uso de las unidades fraseologicas del español por parte de los bilingues. Los contactos establecidos con otros investigadores españoles e internacionales que trabajan tambien sobre las lenguas en contacto hicieron concebir este libro, de forma mas amplia, como una muestra de los trabajos que se estan realizando actualmente sobre el español en contacto con las otras lenguas peninsulares. El conjunto de los articulos pone de manifiesto que el gallego, el euskera y el catalan con las que convive el español imprimen a esta lengua una serie de caracteristicas que configuran las variedades propias de cada territorio.

El nacimiento de las lenguas, su extensión, el arraigo en un pueblo y su desaparición avanzan junto con los acontecimientos que dan forma a la Historia. Es un ciclo continuo e inmutable. En esos cambios permanentes, el ser humano ha sentido desde siempre la necesidad de ser bilingue y asi, si un viajero desea decir algo en cualquier rincon del planeta, intentara hablar el latin actual, que es el ingles; hace dos mil años ese mismo viajero intentaria expresarse en el ingles de entonces, que era el latin. Las lenguas son, pues, numerosas y diversas. Las que han influido en la humanidad muchas menos. Y otras, la mayoria, han muerto sin lapida alguna que las recuerde. Para poner luz a lo que fue, a lo que pudo haber sido y a lo que tal vez sea de la humanidad y su capacidad comunicativa, esta "Breve Historia de las lenguas" del mundo reflexiona a traves del tiempo y los pueblos, y revela los principios que han inspirado a los hablantes y sus instrumentos de comunicacion, y tambien los procedimientos mediante los cuales unas lenguas han sufrido la crueldad invasora de las vecinas, otras se han dejado morir por el desinteres de sus hablantes, y otras, muy pocas como el sumerio, egipcio, griego, arabe, español, frances e ingles, entre otras, se han alzado soberanas en largos y prosperos periodos a traves de los siglos.

In this volume, the author provides an overview of English concepts of translation into the vernacular from 1475 to 1611, the main period of the English Renaissance. The corpus consists of more than 200 documents, all of which are the front matters of translations published during this period. Almost all of these documents, which range in length from a few lines to around thirty pages of small print, are epistles dedicatory or prefaces. The Renaissance is a period in which a concerted effort was made to turn to Latin and Greek authors in order to profit from their wisdom, learning, and art. Translations for the benefit of readers who are not proficient in foreign languages form a distinct branch of these endeavors as yet hardly recognized in their true nature, extent, and historical importance, namely vernacular Christian humanism.

This volume serves as a thorough and authoritative introduction to the "classical" phase of the ancient Egyptian language and its writing systems, known by convention as Middle Egyptian. It includes sixteen chapters with practice exercises, which offer detailed discussions of the conventional hieroglyphic script, syntax, and grammar, as well as overviews of diachronic change, the hieratic script, and nonstandard hieroglyphic orthographies (so-called cryptography). In addition, the volume includes an answer key to the even-numbered exercises, as well as a series of appendices, featuring an extensive glossary of particles, numerous paradigmatic charts, and a robust sign list.

This collected volume gathers articles stemming from the papers presented at the international and interdisciplinary conference Language, semantics and cognition. Saying and conceptualizing the world from Ancient Egypt to modern times, organized at Yale university (online) on April 16-18, 2021. It offers a glimpse at the current state of research in different fields intersecting with the study of the Egyptian language (lexical semantics, semantic typology, visual semiotics, metaphor studies, cognitive linguistics, classifiers studies) and addresses some main research questions for the future. It lays the foundations of a methodological road map for more effective interdisciplinary research. The studies included in this volume explore the link between the cognitive level (What are the conceptual categories in which the real is divided? How are they organized?) and the linguistic and written/visual level (How are these concepts expressed in the language/script?) through various themes. They allow for a comparison of the results obtained from different perspectives and approaches and for highlighting the differences and/or similarities that can be found cross-culturally and cross-linguistically, in pre-modern and modern languages. A major aim of the volume is to stress the importance of an interdisciplinary approach to the study of pre-modern languages and stress the importance of making data from these languages and their scripts accessible to scholars from other fields, in order to integrate them in a broader scientific dialogue.

The languages spoken by the pre-Columbian tribes of North America were many and diverse. Into the regions occupied by these tribes, travelers, traders, and missionaries have penetrated in advance of civilization, and civilization itself has marched across the continent at a rapid rate. Under these conditions the languages of the various tribes have received much study. Many extensive works have been published, embracing grammars and dictionaries; but a far greater number of minor vocabularies have been collected and very many have been published. In addition to these, the Bible, in whole or in part, and various religious books and school books, have been translated into Indian tongues to be used for purposes of instruction; and newspapers have been published in the Indian languages. Altogether the literature of these languages and that relating to them are of vast extent.

In "Indian Linguistic Families of America," John Wesley Powell presents a groundbreaking exploration of the diverse linguistic landscapes of Native American languages. This work, published in 1891, epitomizes Powells meticulous empirical approach, as he categorizes languages into families based on grammatical, phonetic, and lexical similarities. His study not only contributes to linguistic anthropology but also sets the foundation for future research in American linguistics, illustrating the complex relationship between language and culture within indigenous communities. Powells clarity of expression and systematic methodology reflect the intellectual rigor characteristic of the late 19th-century scientific discourse, making it a seminal text in both linguistic and ethnographic studies. John Wesley Powell was a prominent American geologist, explorer, and anthropologist whose adventurous spirit led him to explore the uncharted regions of the American West. His experiences during the Civil War and subsequent expeditions along the Colorado River forged a deep respect for the Native American tribes he encountered. This respect is evident in his comprehensive documentation and representation of their languages, reflecting Powells belief in the intrinsic value of all cultures and the importance of preserving their legacies. Readers interested in linguistics, anthropology, or American history will find "Indian Linguistic Families of America" to be an indispensable resource. Powells keen insights and thorough analysis invite us to appreciate the rich tapestry of indigenous languages, encouraging a deeper understanding of the cultural identities they represent. This work remains a vital scholarly contribution for those seeking to engage with the intricate dynamics of language and identity.
