A Comparative Grammar Of British English Dialects - Topics in English Linguistics 50.1(Topics in English Linguistics)
This volume offers qualitative as well as corpus-based quantitative studies on three domains of grammatical variation in the British Isles. All studies draw heavily on the Freiburg English Dialect Corpus (FRED), a computerized corpus for predominantly British English dialects comprising some 2.5 million words.
Vowel Harmony and Correspondence Theory (Studies in Generative Grammar 66)
The book covers the major issues in the generative analysis of vowel harmony and vowel harmony typology. It offers an economical account of the most prominent features of vowel harmony systems (root control, affix control, dominance, vowel opacity, and neutrality) within the framework of optimality theory, extending the notion of correspondence to ...
The Syllable (Studies in Generative Grammar 45)
This collection offers a fairly exhaustive presentation of current day approaches to the phonotactics or syllabic organization of words as well as a rich display of the syllabic organization of some 20 languages. with respect to the views we find adherents of onset-rhyme models, using the approach of government phonology or "X-bar" models, and mora...
The Free Word Order Phenomenon Its Syntactic Sources and Diversity (Studies in Generative Grammar)
This book deals with the syntax of the free word order phenomenon (scrambling) in a wide range of languages - in particular, German, Japanese, Kannada, Malayalam, Serbo-Croatian, Tagalog, Tongan, and Turkish - in some of which the phenomenon was previously unstudied.
The Acquisition of Finiteness (Studies in Generative Grammar 94)
The book provides a theoretical and empirical evaluation of a field that has been the focus of generative theories on language acquisition: the acquisition of finiteness and related properties such as root infinitives, verb movement and null subjects.
Studies on Semantics in Generative Grammar
The three essays that follow take as their point of departure the formulation of grammatical theory presented in such work as J. J. Katz and P. M. Postal, An Integrated Theory of Linguistic Descriptions, 1954, and Chomsky, Aspects of the Theory of Syntax, 1965.
Strength Relations in Phonology (Studies in Generative Grammar)
This collection of papers explores the theme of phonological strength. The general notion of strength plays a central role in explaining a variety of apparently disparate phonological effects relating to language acquisition, tone and pitch accent patterns, as well as segmental distribution.
Noun Phrase in the Generative Perspective (Studies in Generative Grammar)
The goal of this book is twofold. On the one hand we want to offer a discussion of some of the more important properties of the nominal projection, on the other hand we want to provide the reader with tools for syntactic analysis which apply to the structure of DP but which are also relevant for other domains of syntax.
Linguistic Evidence Empirical Theoretical and Computational Perspectives (Studies in Generative Grammar)
The renaissance of corpus linguistics and promising developments in experimental linguistic techniques in recent years have led to a remarkable revival of interest in issues of the empirical base of linguistic theory in general, and the status of different kinds of linguistic evidence in particular.
Infinitives (Studies in Generative Grammar 55)
Infinitives: Restructuring and Clause Structure offers a detailed study of the clausal architecture of infinitival constructions providing a unified analysis of restructuring, control, modals, and raising. The book critically evaluates previous proposals from both syntactic and semantic perspectives and presents a new analysis incorporating many re...
