The hierarchy ranks them from the most cohesive to the least cohesive, both syntactically and semantically. There is a meaningful prediction of the hierarchy, that is, the tightest syntactic linkage realising a particular semantic relation should be tighter than the tightest syntactic linkage realising looser semantic relations. Almost all the constructions respect this prediction, but two of them. The data also manifest diatopic variation. The author is using a phonetic map to analyse the morphosyntactic data. He presents a number of maps that show that morphosyntactic phenomena are, in general, more widespread than phonetic isoglosses. They are common to the three main varieties of Sardinian: Campidanese, Logudorese and Nuorese.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Francesco Casti\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3034315538\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783034315531\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic P\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/04\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 270\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.57d","brand":"Francesco Casti","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47305468608767,"sku":"9783034315531","price":58.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b747a3bf-d7f8-48a2-bf87-9dbba10e113d.jpg?v=1758830967","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/testing-the-interclausal-relations-hierarchy-francesco-casti-9783034315531","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
