| Summary: | The aim of this paper is empirical: it presents the
geographical span of the so-called Doubly Filled Comp constructions
in Gallo-romance dialects in the Atlas Linguistique de la France,
i.e. constructions where an instance of que is followed by a WHphrase. The contexts under review are root WH-questions, free
and bounded relative clauses, embedded exclamative clauses
in comment ‘how’ and temporal clauses in quand ‘when’. Three
local varieties of que are also examined: que following si ‘if’ in
conditional clauses; the so-called Gascon enunciative particle; and
doubled que in a Picard dialect. The geographical distribution of
these various instances of que turns out to be largely restricted to
(though not exclusive of) the Oïl area, though each construction
may exhibit a different span. |
