When an indefinite pronoun is found in a Latin conditional clause, it is quis in most cases, but in some cases it can also be aliquis or even quidam. This investigation tries to explain both the usual case represented by quis and the exceptional cases, represented by aliquis. Furthermore, negative conditional clauses present unexpected phenomena like the low number of occurrences of quis and the absence of quisquam in nisi clauses.

Abstract
When an indefinite pronoun is found in a Latin conditional clause, it is quis in most cases, but in some cases it can also be aliquis or even quidam. This investigation tries to explain both the usual case represented by quis and the exceptional cases, represented by aliquis. Furthermore, negative conditional clauses present unexpected phenomena like the low number of occurrences of quis and the absence of quisquam in nisi clauses.File in questo prodotto:
