Abstract This contribution is an investigation of the distribution and nature of a structure found across Northern Italian varieties, a reflex of Latin habere to which a locative particle g has been added, within the contexts of the relation between microvariation and gradual language change. A detailed morpho-syntactic description forms the basis for an analysis that suggests a probable path of univerbation of the two elements. Driving the analysis is the consideration of the original semantic features of the Latin element from which the locative particle has developed, in particular of the order of their weakening.

The semantic variants of verbs in a semantic-syntactic description and lexicographic practice (on the basis of Bulgarian language)The problem of establishing the criteria separating homonymic lexical units and their semantic variants is crucial in lexicographic description. The paper illustrates the basis of a semantic-syntactic description of verbs in which the separation of predictave units having the same semantic features is relevant. Confronting the semantic-syntactic approaches with the Bulgarian lexicographic practice allows showing their similarities and differences; it is also pointed out that lexicographic approaches based on the intuition of native speakers lead to certain inconsistencies.

The subject of the paper is the semantic and syntactic description of the peripheral verbs of sensory perception in the Croatian language. Peripherality refers to the occurrence of these verbs with different semantic features, which makes some of them function as hyperonyms of the verbs of sensory perception, some may refer to all types of perception, but also create connections with other semantic fields. The analysis is based on componential analysis and cognitive linguistics, and the predicate-argument structure of those verbs is also presented. The aim of the paper is to show that these verbs have a wider range of meanings and thus greater possibilities in usage than dictionaries suggest within lexicographic description.
