| Summary: | The author compares the Italian suffix -ign|o with the equivalent Sicilian and Calabrian -ign|u, pointing out, on the basis of all the existing examples, the modest productivity of the Italian suffix, in comparison with the greater productivity of the equivalent suffix in the dialect. The superior productivity of the dialect influences the Italian literary production of two great expressionist writers: the Sicilian Stefano D’Arrigo and the Calabrian Giuseppe Occhiato. All the forms with -ign|o used by those authors in their novels are quoted as well as some examples of words new to the Italian lexicography. |
