A Failed Borrowing Process: the Case of Ancient Greek Verb-Initial Compounds in Latin

The process is governed by the Resistance Principle (Guardiano et al. 2016, 2020) and tied to the productivity of deponent structures of the VOAux type [Fourth AMC Symposium: Contact and Language Change - University of Edinburgh (Dec. 2-4, 2024)]

On the Analogical Development of πηγεσίμαλλος and Other First Compound Members in -εσι-

The class of verbal first compound members in -εσι- is not a homogeneous group, but its origin is... more The class of verbal first compound members in -εσι- is not a homogeneous group, but its origin is ultimately connected with neuter s-stems. I reconstruct a process for Homeric Greek parallel to the deverbative formation of verbal second members in -ής, which produces verbal first members in -εσι- by analogy with the compositional forms of s-stems.

Applying for the Position of "Resident Poet": Damophilos in Pythian 4.279-299
