Zusammenfassung
Some of the Raeto-Romance varieties spoken in Switzerland and Northern Italy exhibit morphosyntactic peculiarities like the verb-second (V2) property, the obligatory use of subject pronouns and the lack of object clitics, which distinguish them from their neighbouring Gallo-Romance languages and dialects. As Raeto-Romance varieties have been and continue to be influenced by (varieties of) German which also exhibit these properties, the existence of these characteristics in Raeto-Romance has often been attributed to language contact. This paper challenges this assumption. By comparing Raeto-Romance with other Romance languages both from a synchronic and from a diachronic perspective we will show that other Romance languages seem to be undergoing or to have undergone similar developmental stages like those observed in Raeto-Romance. Given this observation, we will argue that it is more adequate to assume that the influence of German did not cause the existence of these morphosyntactic peculiarities in Raeto-Romance. Rather, we will claim that the contact with German contributed to the maintenance and the further development of these properties in Raeto-Romance. Other Romance languages, in contrast, despite showing tendencies that favoured the development of these properties, did never develop them completely due to the lack of the relevant language contact situation.
