This thesis explores the morphosyntactic characteristics of Ampezzo Ladin, a dialect of the Dolomitic Ladin language spoken in the area of Cortina d’Ampezzo. Personal experiences inspired the research, as I grew up in Belluno and had direct contact with the Ampezzo area, where traditions and language form a distinctive cultural identity that is now at risk due to the decreasing number of native speakers. The study is based on data collected through a translation questionnaire administered to 5 Ladin speakers of different ages and backgrounds. The analysis focuses on how core morphosyntactic traits of the dialect are preserved across generations, while other features reveal variation and ongoing linguistic change. The research aims to contribute to the documentation of Ampezzo Ladin and to shed light on the internal variation of this minority language, offering a snapshot of its current state within an evolving sociolinguistic context.
Questa tesi esplora le caratteristiche morfosintattiche del ladino ampezzano, un dialetto della lingua ladina dolomitica parlato nella zona di Cortina d'Ampezzo. La scelta dell’argomento nasce da un interesse personale legato al mio territorio di origine, Belluno, e alle esperienze dirette maturate nell'area ampezzana, dove lingua e tradizioni costituiscono un patrimonio culturale ormai fragile, a causa della progressiva diminuzione dei parlanti nativi. La ricerca si basa su un questionario di traduzione di frasi semplici somministrato a cinque parlanti ladino di età e provenienze diverse. L’analisi ha permesso di osservare come alcuni tratti morfosintattici siano condivisi da tutti i parlanti, mentre altri presentino variazioni che riflettono cambiamenti generazionali e individuali. Lo studio intende offrire un contributo alla documentazione del ladino ampezzano e alla comprensione della variazione interna di questa lingua minoritaria, nel suo attuale contesto sociolinguistico in trasformazione.

Abstract
This thesis explores the morphosyntactic characteristics of Ampezzo Ladin, a dialect of the Dolomitic Ladin language spoken in the area of Cortina d’Ampezzo. Personal experiences inspired the research, as I grew up in Belluno and had direct contact with the Ampezzo area, where traditions and language form a distinctive cultural identity that is now at risk due to the decreasing number of native speakers. The study is based on data collected through a translation questionnaire administered to 5 Ladin speakers of different ages and backgrounds. The analysis focuses on how core morphosyntactic traits of the dialect are preserved across generations, while other features reveal variation and ongoing linguistic change. The research aims to contribute to the documentation of Ampezzo Ladin and to shed light on the internal variation of this minority language, offering a snapshot of its current state within an evolving sociolinguistic context.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
