Talk:Friulian language

message: It's false that friulian never acquired official/legal status: almost at this time, infact, Italy recognizes that language as MINORITY LANGUAGE (not only dialect) and gives to it a status of co-officiality in its historical area of diffusion. Friulian can be teached at school, can be used in writing (and have legal value), and can be used under judgment and in any contact with public issues.--87.18.231.68 (talk) 03:23, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: OFFICIAL/LEGAL STATUS OF FRIULIAN

message: I am not a linguist but I believe there is a confusion with weak pronouns. Catalan does have weak pronouns but they are not pleonastic. Weak pronouns in Catalan are simply pronouns that change their pronunciation and spelling based on their position in the sentence or if they are preceded by a vowel. Pleonastic nouns do not exist in Catalan.
:I was just about to comment on that. Weak pronouns in Catalan refer to clitic pronouns, that is, pronouns with no stress: "et dono" (I give you), present in almost all Romance languages: ("te doy" in Spanish, "je te donne" in French, etc.).  Friulian "weak pronouns" resemble Venetan pronouns in that they are pleonastic. Catalan does not have plenoastic pronouns: "I speak" is simply "jo parlo", whereas in Frulian it is "jo o feveli" (jo + o) or in Venetan "mi mi parle" (mi + mi). --the Dúnadan 16:45, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Catalan does have clitic/weak personal pronouns, but they are object pronouns. Such clitic object pronouns exist in all Romance languages. Friulian has both object and subject clitic pronouns, which are the pronouns described in the paragraph I modified. Clitic subject pronouns do not exist in Catalan (therefore the comparison is inappropriate). Furthermore, clitic subject pronuons are not "pleonastic" but compulsory in Friulian. Last but not least, as a general rule, it would be more appropriate tu use the definition "clitic pronouns" insted of "weak pronuons" which is a transaltion of the Catalan pronoms febles.
The article states the ISO-639-1 code is fr, which is the code for French. ~ Dodde (talk) 00:02, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Translation 

message: Might I suggest in the various examples given that the Italian translation be given too
i.e. English > Friulano > Italian

text: I disagree with anon user 140.168.79.1: This is the English page of this article. I don't see the relevance of adding Italian examples in an article about the Friulian language that is written in English for English readers. Users of languages other than English can click on the language list on the left and find the article with same examples in their language. Respectfully, 71.237.120.119 (talk) 18:13, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think it would be a bad idea to add Italian. Friulian was (and is) very influenced by Italian and almost every Friulian live in Italy and speak also Italian. It's something like adding Spanish translations in a page about Catalan or Galician. Or Dutch to a West Frisian article. I'm sure it wouldn't undermine the authority of English in an English Wikipedia for English readers. --151.51.25.173 (talk) 21:14, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  "Germanization" of Trieste 

message: The first sentence of the Introduction:  Friulian or Friulan (furlan or, affectionately, marilenghe in Friulian, friulano in Italian, Furlanisch in German, furlanščina in Slovene; also Friulian)
I don't understand the "also Friulian)".  The first word of the article already says Friulian. Why say it again here?  Omc (talk) 12:08, 23 July 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: The text had been Friulan throughout, thus "also Friulian" made sense. On 3 September 2013‎ someone executed a mass substitution of all the Friulan with Friulian, and in his/her zeal failed to catch the "also..." and its reason for being there. 96.42.57.164 (talk) 17:30, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
