Euskal artikuluak euskalki eta autoretan

Abstract

This paper analyses the use of articles in the Basque language. We collected testimonies from different periods and parts of the Basque Country, which enabled us to analyse the morpheme –a in the Middle Ages from the 16th century onwards. The paper also analyses articles from a wider perspective: the demonstrative system in its entirety and as the origin of articles, and various phenomena in the declination of articles.
