Some Remarks on the Accumulation of Prefixes in Vulgar Latin Inscriptions
Original language description
The language of most epigraphic documents we possess includes certain repeated habitual formulations that are typical of certain types of inscriptions. This applies even more to curse tablets which illustrate some linguistic peculiarities strictly tied to the genre. The texts of these are often formulated according to their own rules which take into account the magical ritual accompanying the text itself and are focused on the supposed effect on the victim of the curse. This special linguistic use may be traced also in the use of verbal and nominal prefixes in curse texts. We can find prefixes changing the semantic quality of a verb or a noun in strange combinations as well as their accumulations with diverse functions (spatial, evaluative, aspectual, and manipulative).
