Summary: | The aim of this paper is to examine the deletion of the que complementiser in completive subordinate clauses within a corpus of Andalusian archivistic documents (18th- 19th centuries). We specifically studied 1.467 subordinate clauses, in order to analyze not only the degree of omission of the que complementiser during that period (1701-1815), but also the determining causes. By studying this, we will be able to learn more about this phenomenon, which has been partially ignored in previous research on the history of Spanish. Key words: Completive subordinate clause, Grammatical variation, Variationism, Deletion of que, 18th century, 19th century, Archivistic documents, Historical Linguistics Questo articolo si occupa dell'omissione della congiunzione que nelle proposizioni subordinate completive in spagnolo. Lo studio del fenomeno dell'omissione, focalizzato sull'analisi di documenti amministrativi andalusi dei secoli XVIII-XIX, prende sotto esame 1.467 proposizioni subordinate allo scopo di valutare l'incidenza del fenomeno nel periodo compreso fra 1701 e 1815. Si cerchera anche di stabilire le cause che spiegano tale omissione. Sulla scorsa dei risultati ottenuti sara possibile approfondire le conoscenze su questo fenomeno linguistico, ancora insufficientemente studiato, ma necessaria a fornire un panorama piU completo sulla storia della lingua spagnola.
