Topic of this volume is Pomattertitsch, a German dialect which is
doomed to extinction. This Allemanic (Walser) dialect is spoken at
Formazza, a tiny Alpine community in Italy, and after centuries of
semi-secluded existence is now undergoing major transformations due
to the rapidly declining number of its speakers and the limited
range of its functions. Within the framework of language decay and
death this analysis focuses on phenomena of linguistic variation at
a morphosyntactic level. This comprehensive study includes a large
body of spoken data collected from informants of different age
groups and with different levels of language fluency and thus
displays a unique picture of an endagered language.
