Durham Computer in Reconstruction of Proto-Diasystem: Franco-Provençal I. i. 14 Since a diasystem is a combination into one single descriptive statement of the features of several dialects viewed horizontally, a proto-diasystem can be considered a combination into one single statement of the features of several dialects viewed vertically, that is, historically. 1972Computers & Humanities VII. 6 A corpus of about 1000 words, chosen from eleven villages, provided a concordance to suggest a reconstruction of the Franco-Provençal proto-diasystem and a tentative phonology. |
