Otxandio aldeko hiketaren berezitasunez

Abstract

This paper comprises two parts. In the first part we aim to show the differences between the use of the allocutive verb in the area of Otxandio and in Ubidea and Oleta of the same dialectal variety. The allocutive verb shows the feature of absence of both the feminine sexual mark and the "n" mark of past tense in an irregular way in each village. At the same time and taking these two peculiarities as a reference, a short comparison with the Suletin and Roncalés dialects is established, as the former does not have the past tense "n" mark and the latter lacks both this and the sexual feminine mark. In the second part we can see not only how some subordinate sentences with the verb "hika" or of familiar addressing for the second person singular are structured, but also the way in which these subordinate sentences affect the auxiliary of familiar addressing.
