(Hais) tias is used with a certain group of verbs, which I will characterize, to introduce direct speech quotations as well as embedded sentences reporting a proposition. In the latter case, it functions like its counterparts in English ('that') and French ('que'). The study of (hais) tias will involve a review of tias, first in Heimbach's dictionary (1979) and second in Mottin's grammar (1978). Then' I will proceed to discuss findings from my own research and compare them with Heimbach's and Mottin's treatments of tias. In conclusion I will offer a new analysis of this complementizer based on research findings | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/178769 | ISSN: | 0731-3500 | DOI: | 10.32655/LTBA.8.1.06 | Organisations: | San Diego State University | Rights: | © 1985 The Editor(s).
