The article explores how postpositional articles are used in Istro-Romanian, a dialect of Romanian. It looks at how these articles evolved in Romance languages and compares their usage in Romanian and Istro-Romanian. By analyzing texts from different collections, the researchers found that the usage of postpositional articles in Istro-Romanian is similar to that in Romanian and other Balkan languages.
