| Citazioni | An isogloss tells us only that there has occured somewhere and at some time a sound- change, an analogic-semantic change, or a cultural loan, but the isogloss does not tell us where or when this change occurred. Within a dialect area, we can draw lines between places which differ as to any feature of language. Such lines are called 'isoglosses'. |
