1. La Frasca
Before discussing the specific topic of this discussion, you should set it up properly because it is not an isolated problem but rather must be studied as one of many media.
To achieve this goal, I will briefly discuss the personality and work of Ferdinand de Saussure (l857-l9l3), a Swiss linguist who, between the years 1906-1911, he dictated lectures in Geneva, which were collected by his students and published in book Course in General Linguistics. This work is the starting point of the most significant aspects of contemporary linguistics, especially structuralism.
One of the important concepts proposed by De Saussure is to sign, a technique that means "the combination of concept and image", ie the meaning and significance. Sign any visual system is also communication, especially writing but also of various codes of communication which can serve man, to send a message. Examples: the white smoke or black, during the conclave to elect a pope, to announce the success or failure of the vote, the military salute, bringing his hand on his forehead (originally, when two soldiers were entering notices against in talks to show their peaceful intentions, raised his right hand with the shield of armor that covered his face), the system which are worth the sailors to transmit messages by means of flags, the modern road signs, many tricks of which is advertising commercial or ideological.
of the signs of which man uses to transmit messages deals with semiotics (as proposed by De Saussure, derived from the greek semeion, "sign"), which studies the life of signs in the bosom of society. The language is just a part of this general science.
addition to the senses of hearing and sight, which are the most important, the man can make use of touch, taste and smell. To feel we mention the Braille for the blind, made up of raised dots that symbolize the letters of the alphabet, which is passing polpastelli decipher on the page.
the sense of taste has benefited from the culture gauchesca in Argentina, per trasmettere segretamente messaggi conosciuti solo dagli iniziati. Quando la chinita, la ragazza, serviva al gaucho, il mandriano delle pampe, un mate amargo (un’infusione di foglie di Ilex paraguayensis) senza zucchero, voleva dichiarare amore all’uomo che era giunto al suo rancho. Viceversa, se il mate era dolce equivaleva a “indifferenza” o “rifiuto”.
Volendo, si potrebbero trasmettere messaggi anche con l’olfatto, ossia con gli odori o profumi, stabilendo d’antemano il significato che si vuol dare ad ognuno di essi.
Dopo questa premessa, risulterà più facile comprendere come la parola frasca (in friulano fras’cje) al significato primitivo of "green branch with all the leaves," he added to "sign for a country inn, where they sell wine." From there comes the saying "good wine needs no bough ', that is, good wine and in general things that apply do not need advertising.
Until the eighties about the bough designated rural house where they sold their wine production. It was so named because the building was put outside a branch as a sign to advertise the product.
Inside the rural property you have the tables, rustic and outdoors, either under sheds, where he served as wine taverns. For more clarity, sometimes you put a sign that says Frasca. Guests sat at long tables next and could apply for the wine farm, a very good price, which was calculated based on the number of people who took part el the time during which stay in the room.
Meter frasca meant to "open a tavern in the country" in the manner described above. It is also used to put a branch on a construction site (house, barn, etc..) After he had placed the roof. With this trick, the workers demanded the owner of the building that offered a banquet inside the building. This practice was called to the incovo. Not only
in Italia ci si serviva della frasca come insegna pubblicitaria, poiché anche in Spagna venne utilizzata nei secoli scorsi. Un ramo (ossia una frasca) esposto all’esterno di una casa, significava che lì funzionava una specie di locanda, dove si serviva da mangiare e da bere. E, come dice la canzone degli alpini: “E dopo aver mangiato, mangiato e ben bevuto, oh bella mora, se vuoi venire è questa l’ora di far l’amor”. Quindi ramera (derivato di rama) oltre a significare locandiera, con il tempo divenne “donna che mantiene facilmente rapporti sessuali con gli uomini”, ossia “prostituta”.
Come si vede, tutto il mondo è paese.
2. LA OMOFONIA DI BACÀN "DIN, STREP" It Bacan "well-off farmers'
homophones are signs that represent the same sound. Example of the c-and q-heart level. Homophonic are the words that have the same sound but different meaning. Homophone is a word formed from the greek homos, "equal", "similar" and phono-, derived by Phone, "sound", "voice". Examples of homophony in Italian: fair, "beast" and proud, "the market" Hole, "openness" and the hole, "the center of Roman life" by singing the phrases, "to sing" ed'accanto, "near to side. "
Examples of homophony are found in all languages \u200b\u200band even dialects of languages \u200b\u200bthat are also less literary and social importance.
L 'homophony can mislead those not familiar with the etymology, which is why someone may think that bacan, "noise, noise and bacan," wealthy farmer "may have the same origin.
Bacan with the meaning of "noise" comes from "bacchanal" chaotic and orgiastic celebration in honor of Bacchus, the god of wine. Were famous in ancient times the Bacchanalia, which easily degenerated into noisy orgies. So when we say no to Stè bacan, si vuole raccomandare di “non fare chiasso” che ha lo stesso significato di “no stè far bordèl”. E sbacanada è una risata fragorosa”.
Il secondo bacàn, invece, salvo l’omofonia, non ha nulla in comune con il primo. Può significare: “Terratenente che lavora la propria terra” oppure “contadino benestante che vive esclusivamente dei prodotti dell’ attività agricola”. Si tratta di una parola che i veneziani hanno preso dai turchi della penisola Balcanica (e più esattamente dalla Dalmazia), la quale nella loro lingua significa “contadino che porta al mercato i prodotti della propria terra”. Quindi: i zè una famèia de bacàni, means "is a family of wealthy farmers." In a poem by poet
Pordenone Ettore Busetto bacanoto a word appears, with the meaning of "riccaccione. Da'n musso bacanòto if x bears' n Agnelo, a lamb has gone from a donkey in the employ of wealthy landowners.
Bacan moved from Venice to Genoa, with the meaning of "master of the ship" and "rich person". In turn, the Genoese took the word in Argentina, especially Buenos Aires, in the famous neighborhood of La Boca (ie the "mouth" or "beginning" of the small river Riachuelo, a tributary of the Rio de la Plata), where The Genoese continued to perform maritime activities. This word was enriched with new semantic connotations: "Head", "rich man who flaunts his wealth and easy life, good looking," and play like a boy "before his time."
Bacan also in Argentina, means "generous man with women, who can afford to pay for them or fill them with gifts." And female Bacana designate the woman of easy virtue who lives with some bacan, as evidenced by the verse of a famous tango: "Ahora vas with a pasarla de los otarios Bacana / a lujoso reservado Petit Julien or ..." (translation "Now go with the simpletons, that can be easily deceived, to some posh restaurant or coffee for a couple of ambiguous licentious activities. " In another tango, the young man who lost the love of his girlfriend, telling her pelandruna abacanada is unleashed, that the slackers who you mean by the rich vicious. " 2
As you can see, the words with the men migrate from one country to another, are subject to many vicissitudes and many changes in phonetic, morphological and semantic features that make them unintelligible to speakers of the place of origin.
3. WILD VEGETABLES: The "Grisol"
When it comes to vegetables is thought especially to plants grown in gardens. There are also some plants that grow naturally e che, in altri tempi, venivano raccolte per le loro proprietà culinarie.
Una di queste piante è conosciuta nel dialetto di Pordenone con il nome di grìsol, in friulano grisulò 3. Il corrispondente nome italiano è silene (Silene angustifolia o inflata, genere delle cariofilacee). E’ molto comune non solo nelle campagne ma anche nei fossi e lungo i margini delle strade. Ha foglie opposte, argentate o grisacee, che spiegano l’origine popolare del nome, fiori di diversi colori, calice rigonfio, frutto a capsula. I germogli vengono raccolti in primavera e si mangiano specialmente con il riso; sono graditi per il loro sapore dolciastro.
Le capsule fresche, in forma di bubbolini, venivano usate dai ragazzi come divertimento, facendole scoppiare sulla fronte o sul palmo della mano, e per questo motivo, in altri dialetti veneti, vengono chiamate s’ciopète.
Il nome silene appare anche nelle altre lingue romanze (francese, spagnolo, e silena in portoghese). Deriva dal latino Silenus, che a sua volta lo ha preso dal greco Silenòs, nome di un personaggio mitico, Sileno, precettore di Dionisio o Bacco, rappresentato come un vecchio obeso o panciuto.
In alcuni dialetti spagnoli questa pianticella viene designata con il nome conejera (conigliera) poiché il movimento delle capsule è visto come un gruppo di coniglietti che scorrazzano agilmente.
Tutte queste creazioni semantiche dimostrano che la fantasia non è unicamente a prerogative of poets, since even the lowly commoners have this option.
4. POPULAR
Personification Personification is the act or effect of personification, that is represented as a person, something abstract, or embody, give human form (or even animal and plant) to a point. All
polytheistic religions and especially those of ancient Greece and Rome, we offer numerous examples of personification. Here are some of Jupiter (Zeus) is the personification of the head of the family and therefore maximum. Apollo, envisioned as a young man of extraordinary beauty, symbolized in art and especially music and poetry. Venus (Aphrodite), however, was depicted as a beautiful woman, sensual, and therefore was a symbol of sexual love, fertility, from which springs life. Mars (Ares) symbolized the war. Mercury (Hermes) was the messenger of the gods and was represented with wings behind the foot and also to indicate the speed of communication and commerce.
There are also other embodiments that do not belong to penalty in the classical world of antiquity, but in later periods of classical culture. We will highlight just a few. The fairy
Fatum The Latin word meaning "prediction, oracle, prophecy." The plural fairy amounted to "fate, fatali vaticinio”. Il plurale fata equivaleva a “destino, fatalità, fato”. Si tratta quindi di concetti astratti che vennero personificati nella parola femminile singolare fata (portoghese fada, spagnolo hada, francese fée, inglese fairy, tedesco Fee)4.
Ci sono delle iscrizioni latine nelle quali fata significa “dea del destino” Le fate quindi furono immaginate come dee dotate di un potere soprannaturale sui destini umani.
Generalmente le fate sono raffigurate come donne giovani, belle, buone, sempre disposte a fare del bene; ma ci sono anche le fate malvage, secondo certi racconti infantili.
Per estensione, fata si dice di una donna di grande bellezza e di numerose virtù. Esempio: The fairy of the poor.
La Befana Befana
is a word that originally appears in the dialects of Northern Italy and is derived from the Latin word (s) piphan (i), in turn derived from the greek epipháneia (hier), parties of the article, namely the manifestation of the divinity of Jesus, called Christ. The consonant-p-(intervocalic voiced fricative) was transformed into-b-(voiced stop), a phenomenon typical of five dialects of Northern Italy. Then the e-initial fall. Then we have the current form witch.
At Epiphany, the Magi brought the baby Jesus, the gift of gold, frankincense and myrrh. To commemorate this fact narrated by the evangelist Matthew (2, 1-12), has arisen the custom of making gifts to children on the day of this feast. And it is the children of tender age that "materialize", so to speak, the facts, actions and abstract concepts. So the witch was depicted as an old charitable organization that is introduced to the chimney of the stove and bring them gifts during the night of the Epiphany. Befana accordingly passed to designate the gifts. But given the old look of this character, sometimes adding the pejorative meaning of "ugly old woman." The
maràntega
The first meaning of maràntega in Venetian dialect is "nightmare". Si tratta di una parola composta, il cui primo elemento è mara (derivato dall’alto tedesco), “incubo”. Il secondo elemento è antola che va associato al veneziano obsoleto àntola, “incubo”. Si tratta quindi di una superposizione di due parole di diversa origine ma con lo stesso significato 6.
Per estensione si dice maràntega ad una donna vecchia e brutta. Vedasi sopra il significato peggiorativo di “befana”. Inoltre si applica pure al temporale. Esempio: Vien su la maràntega, si avvicina la burrasca, preceduta da lampi e tuoni.
La fràcola
La fràcola è l’incubo, ossia il senso di affanno e di apprensione provocato da sogni che spaventano and distressing. It's the equivalent of the French cauchemar, word composed of two elements: the first, Cauca, limestone comes from the Latin, "squeeze, crush, squeeze," similar to the dialect verb tails, the second element derives from the German Tues sea, " Witch "7. The
fràcola is portrayed as a bad woman, or a witch who enjoys jumping on the chest of people, giving them a sense of suffocation. It is therefore the embodiment of indigestion that causes unpleasant sensations in the sleeper.
La mare de San Piero
La mare de San Piero means rather violent thunderstorms occurring around the feast of St. Peter, 29 June. This atmospheric phenomenon has given rise to the proverb, "muttered the Co mare de San Piero, Brusa olives and impissa el cero."
The Gospels do not speak the mother of St. Peter, the apostle but of the mother-in-law who was healed by Jesus, and do not give you the evil powers. One wonders how he could rise to the legend that gave this designation to its summer weather phenomenon.
As we told you about fràcola, the High German word mara, "nightmare" was confused and was built over the sea, "mother", derived from the Latin matrem, mother, common name for yourself. Therefore, the personification of the weather phenomenon is easy. In Friuli
folklore there are many legends and tales related to Mari of San Piero, who is described as a bad woman and very jealous (one invidiosate), there's the saying "invidiôs as the seas of San Piero."
In this case we have moved from the idea of \u200b\u200bthe nasty storm that causes harm to the equally unpleasant "resentment" and "hatred" "envy" for luck and happiness or the qualities of others, often combined with the desire that everything is become ill.
Scarampàna
Scarampàna Carampane comes from, a feminine noun, to which is added the prefix s-value-intensive or strengthened.
Carampane, in turn, derives from the name of a street in Venice, called "Ca Rampana", ie house Rampani, names of owners. Staying in that house prostitutes, old and ugly now that did not carry on trade or at most sad that lent themselves as pandering.
Ca Rampani was a place out of reach, unwelcoming and, for obvious reasons, far to the churches. Then one old woman Carampane taken to mean "bad old and decrepit." The s-intensive initial value.
From the idea of \u200b\u200bugliness ugly goes to the equally unwelcome to "rebuke." From there comes the saying: "Me toca a mi ga hear scarampiàne many, it fell to me to hear so many accusations (or scolding, reprimands, reprimands) 8.
