La singularidad morfológica del español «párpado»
Abstract
The existence in Spanish of the singular form párpado (<*palpetrum), a survival of Latin palpebrae (palpetrae), is a paradigmatic example of a series of common linguistic phenomena which generally are well described in the study of the evolution of Latin into the romance languages. Among these phenomena the following can be cited: changes in grammatical gender of words referring to parts of the body, double stressing of words whose penultimate syllabe occurs before «muta cum liquida», alternation and switching positions of dfferent suffixes, and the influence of Greek words on Latin versions of Greek technical books.
