Abstract: | In this paper, we analyze the structure of Romanian complex/descriptive proper names (PNs) from a double perspective, synchronic and diachronic. Synchronically, for Modern Romanian, two main configurations are distinguished, a [classifier + PN] structure and a [PN + classifier] structure. Diachronically, these two structures arise from changes in the position and the definite/non-definite marking of adjectives and other PN-dependents, the marking of the PNs themselves for definiteness and Case, and the formation of new PNs out of nouns and adjectives which originally functioned as classifiers. In addition to classified structures, we also bring into discussion the other patterns of complex PN formation, the most relevant of which are the genitival and locative constructions. |
