The Scandinavian languages and the null-subject parameter
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 5 - Trang 377-401 - 1987
Christer Platzack
The null-subject parameter divides the Scandinavian languages in two groups. On the one hand, we find Icelandic and Faroese, which can have null-subjects with dummy interpretation in tensed clauses. On the other hand, we have Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish, where null-subjects are not found in tensed clauses. Certain other constructions are shown to presuppose a grammar permitting [+pronoun] heads...... hiện toàn bộ
Theta theory and the syntax of applicatives in Chichewa
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 6 - Trang 353-389 - 1988
Mark Baker
Abbreviations used in the glosses in this article are: A, gender agreement; ABS, absolutive; APPL, applied affix; ASP, mood morpheme; EX, exclusive; HAB, habitual tense; OP, object prefix; PASS, passive; PRES, present; RECIP, reciprocal; SP, subject prefix; SUF, suffix. Glosses of pronominal agreement consist of a number indicating person, a lower case letter indicating number (singular or plural)...... hiện toàn bộ
“Dative Sickness” in germanic
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 12 - Trang 675-736 - 1994
Henry Smith
This paper approaches Case Theory through the problem of case alternations and case change. Two such alternations, Dative Sickness (or Substitution) and Nominative Substitution, are compared in Icelandic, German and Old English. The paper proposes a unification-based theory of case, which consists of three main constraints on the relation of NP properties and morphosyntactic realization: the Appli...... hiện toàn bộ
Restricting Suffix Combinations In German And English: Closing Suffixes And The Monosuffix Constraint
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 20 - Trang 451-490 - 2002
Mark Aronoff, Nanna Fuhrhop
In both German and English many fewer combinations of derivationalsuffixes exist than should be possible, given the types of selectional restrictionsthat have been posited in the existing literature. For each language we found a pervasiverestriction that is responsible for the missing combinations: German has closing suffixes,which individually prevent further suffixation. English allows only one ...... hiện toàn bộ
A Cyclic and Multiple Agree account
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 37 - Trang 51-89 - 2018
Miloje Despić, Michael David Hamilton, Sarah E. Murray
In this paper we propose that probe-goal relations are subject to greater variation than expected, such that both Cyclic Agree and Multiple Agree are possible not only typologically, but also within a single language and a single probe. Cheyenne (Algonquian) has two ways of marking 1st and 2nd person plurality and their conditioning differs between transitives and ditransitives. We propose a hybri...... hiện toàn bộ
Agreement Features, Agreement and Antiagreement
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 23 - Trang 655-686 - 2005
Jamal Ouhalla
There are empirical reasons to think that the role traditionally assigned to specialized categorial features such as [V] and [N] is performed by independently needed features, some of which are agreement features. In appropriate contexts, the verbal feature reduces to [PERSON] and the nominal feature to [CLASS]. This view, along with the fact that agreement features come in bundles, leads to a nov...... hiện toàn bộ
On Extraction From NPS
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 21 - Trang 1-37 - 2003
William D. Davies, Stanley Dubinsky
This paper sheds new light on the conditions governingextraction from NPs. A close examination ofwh-extraction out of object NPs reveals thatpreviously unnoticed semantic factors play a greater role than has beenrecognized. In particular, we find that NPs lacking`participant' structure do not permit wh-extraction at all, and that certain NPs permit extraction even when theyare definite. At the sam...... hiện toàn bộ
Biases in Harmonic Grammar: the road to restrictive learning
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 29 - Trang 251-290 - 2010
Karen Jesney, Anne-Michelle Tessier
In the Optimality-Theoretic learnability and acquisition literature it has been proposed that certain classes of constraints must be biased toward particular rankings (e.g., Markedness ≫ IO-Faithfulness; Specific IO-Faithfulness ≫ General IO-Faithfulness). While sometimes difficult to implement efficiently or comprehensively, these biases are necessary to explain how learners acquire the most rest...... hiện toàn bộ
Interpreting verb clusters
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 34 - Trang 1445-1492 - 2016
Stefan Keine, Rajesh Bhatt
We argue for syntactic verb cluster formation in certain restructuring configurations, the result of which is interpreted via function composition. This cluster formation can be diagnosed by its semantic consequences. In particular, we observe that in these configurations all embedded elements must receive a matrix interpretation even if there is no evidence that these elements leave the embedded ...... hiện toàn bộ
Unifying first and last conjunct agreement
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 27 - Trang 455-496 - 2009
Željko Bošković
The paper investigates first and last conjunct agreement in Serbo-Croatian, the latter being a rather rare phenomenon for head initial languages. The paper gives a uniform account of first and last conjunct agreement based on the operation Agree (Chomsky 2000). The account captures both the contexts where first and last conjunct agreement exhibit parallel behavior and the contexts where the parall...... hiện toàn bộ
