Riflessioni sui parallelismi tra il congiuntivo italiano e il congiuntivo hindi

Year: 2006
Type: article
Abstract: The paper tries to establish the parallelism that lies between subjunctives in Hindi and Italian. Both languages belong to that group of languages which make abundant use of the subjunctive. However, there are many differences between various usages of the subjunctive in these two languages. The Italian subjunctive can roughly be divided into three categories: volitional, dubitative (epistemic) and factive. It can be asserted that in the case of the volitional subjunctive both Hindi and Italian behave in the same way. But when it comes to the second type of Italian subjunctive, Hindi employs its own strategy. In the case of the third category Hindi only rarely makes use of the subjunctive.
