Tha database documents the "mistakes" and deviations from Classical Latin norm, which illustrate the Vulgar Latin development. It presented selected case studies resulting from the linguistic data collected from the 2nd volume of the corpus of Inscriptions Latines de l'Algérie. It analyzed and discussed the Vulgar Latin phenomena occurring in the Latin inscriptions IlAlg 2, 1937, 1340, 1365, and 1079 and the options of their correct codng in the database. The phenomena discussed were as follows: phonetic changes typical fo Vulgar Latin development (vocalismus: y > V; voc.-v-voc.> B; y > I; lv > LB; ae > E; consonantismus: qu > CV; aspiratio vitiosa); changes and confusions in declension systems (dat./abl. pl. -(I)BVS pro –is / decl. III. pro II; decl. IV pro II; fem. pro masc.), as well as syntactic and spelling deviations (permixtio syntagmatum; litterae perperam incisae; litterae superfluae; archaismus). |
