-  * A primary source of reflections on Greek MT is the adaptation, translation and commentary of the Téchnē Grammatikḗ of Dionysius Thrax. The Syriac and the Armenian version of the have received little attention in scholarly literature, with only a few exceptions (Köbert 1967, Belardi 1985, Contini 1998, Farina 2008, Talmon 2000). Nonetheless, the adaptation of the Téchnē played a prominent role in the foundation of the grammatical tradition both of the Syriac and of the Armenian language, particularly from the point of view of the lexicon. A first line of research will deal with the **[[Syriac_adaptation|adaptation of the Téchnē and its further commentary into Syriac around the 5th to the 6th centuries CE by Ywsep Hzy]]**. Although Greek terms are rendered either with loanwords or calques, they are often compared with grammatical terms belonging to the earlier Syriac tradition. For instance, the grammatical category of gender (Gk. ) is translated with a loanword (gensê ‹gns›), while the grammatical category of case (Gk. ) is rendered with the calque maplt ‹mplt›. The MT that will be analyzed have a twofold interest: they can shed new light on how Greek was taught and understood in a Hellenised Eastern community of bilingual speakers, and they will allow us to evaluate the linguistic stage of Syriac during the sixth century AD, an epoch when the flourishing of the Syriac literary language reaches its climax.+  * A primary source of reflections on Greek MT is the adaptation, translation and commentary of the Téchnē Grammatikḗ of Dionysius Thrax.

   * The **[[Armenian_translation|Armenian translation of the Téchnē (6th-7th century)]]** is the oldest Eastern Indo-European spreading of Greek grammatical tradition, connected with a group of Armenian medieval commentaries (Adontz 1970; Clackson 1995; Sgarbi 1988-1991; Scala 2008). Its peculiar interest for the study of MT is represented by the many translation forms which are not elsewhere attested: e.g. for the translation of the Greek týpt ‘(I) strike’, the normal Classical Armenian forms 1st pers. ganem sg., ganemk‘ pl. are employed, together with an artificial ganom in correspondence to the Greek dual (Weitenberg 2000; Sgarbi 2003).    * The **[[Armenian_translation|Armenian translation of the Téchnē (6th-7th century)]]** is the oldest Eastern Indo-European spreading of Greek grammatical tradition, connected with a group of Armenian medieval commentaries (Adontz 1970; Clackson 1995; Sgarbi 1988-1991; Scala 2008).
