Dear colleagues,
We would like to inform you about a new geolinguistic application available at the Instituto da Lingua Galega (University of Santiago de Compostela).
This application searches for indexed forms in published volumes of the Atlas Lingüístico Galego. You can perform searches of all forms occurring in answers (by selecting “Forms”) or search for items occurring in the texts of names of atlas maps (be selecting “Map titles”). Word forms given in phonetic transcription in the published volumes of the Atlas have been converted to standard spelling to facilitate searching.
To access the index just click on the link below or copy it to your browser:
The Atlas Lingüístico Galego (ALGa) is a project of the Instituto da Lingua Galega at the University of Santiago de Compostela. It is published in book form with assistance from the Pedro Barrié de la Maza Foundation. Five volumes have been published to date: Verb morphology; Non-verbal morphology; Phonetics; Lexicon (time and weather); and Lexicon (the human being I). The data comprising the basis of ALGa come from surveys performed in 167 locations in Galicia, Asturias and Castilla y León from 1974 to 1976. The questionnaire used in the surveys includes questions on phonetics, morphology, syntax and the lexicon.
