Sinopsis

This book aims at testing the insertion of eight Sardinian complex predicates inside the Interclausal Relation Hierarchy (RRG). This hierarchy grades them according to their semantic and syntactic cohesion degree. It introduces some first-hand diatopic data, showing that Sardinian verbal morphosyntax is more cohesive than phonological isoglosses.
