Real or Apparent Morphologic Tendencies? Observations and Clarifying Hypotheses Regarding the Concurrence between the Indicative and the Subjunctive in the Contemporary Romanian Language
The aim of this paper is to discuss a very recent trend in morphology as regards colloquial and popular contemporary Romanian: the development of a (third person singular and plural) subjunctive-indicative homonymy. The author identifies two different aspects of this phenomenon and suggests several hypotheses concerning their origin.
Key words:
morphologic analogy, verb, homonymy, indicative, subjunctive, category of the person
