DALGADO (Sebastião Rodolfo). INFLUÊNCIA do Vocabulário Português em Línguas Asiáticas. Coimbra. 1913. - DALGADO (Sebastião Rodolfo) INFLUÊNCIA do Vocabulário Português em Línguas Asiáticas . Abrangendo cerca de cinquenta idiomas. Coimbra: Imprensa da Universidade, 1913. XCII, 250, [4] pp.: il.; 260 mm. A foundational study in Luso-Asian lexicology, in which Dalgado identifies and systematizes approximately 2,500 words of Portuguese origin integrated into about fifty Asian languages, from Japanese and Malay to less studied languages such as Tetum, Sundanese, or Konkani, a testament to the spread of Portuguese as a contact language in the East during the centuries of expansion. Published with the support of the Lisbon Academy of Sciences and dedicated to the philologist Gonçalves Viana, the work develops and expands upon a memoir previously presented by the author, also benefiting from the collaboration of the Japanese historian Murakami Naojirō, author of a parallel study on European influence on Japanese vocabulary. An indispensable reference work for studies of linguistic contact, creolistics, and the history of the Portuguese language in Asia. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
