Underspecification Of Past Participles - On The Identity Of Passive And Perfect(Ive) Participles

de Dennis Wegner

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Are the past participial forms that occur in passive and perfect periphrases substantially identical or should they rather be distinguished into accidentally homophonous passive and perfect(ive) participles? This book discusses the long-standing mystery of past participial (non-)identity on the basis of a broad range of synchronic data from Germanic and Romance, eventually focussing on German and English as these draw the most relevant distinctions (e.g. auxiliary alternation, a passive auxiliary that is not BE). Together with some contrastive insights from Slavic as well as the diachrony of passive and perfect periphrases, this clearly points to an identity-view. The novel approach that is laid out suggests that past participles conflate diathetic and aspectual properties. The former cause the suppression of an external argument, whereas the latter impose event-structure sensitive perfectivity, which only induces the completion of a situation if the underlying eventuality denotes a simple change of state. An approach along these lines sheds light on the intricate properties of past participles and the auxiliaries they occur with, the determinants of auxiliary selection as well as the interplay of argument and event structure.

The Edginess Of Silence - A Study On Chain Linearization

de Tue Trinh

151,05€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Natural language differs from artificial ones in having the "displacement property," allowing expressions to "move" from one position to another in the sentence. The mapping from syntax to phonology, therefore, must include rules specifying how objects created by movement are pronounced, or in technical jargon, how chains are linearized. One of these rules is Copy Deletion. The present study investigates the structural description of Copy Deletion. Specifically, it proposes a phrase geometric constraint on its application. The proposal is corroborated by empirical arguments based on distributional and interpretational facts concerning predicate clefts, NP-Splits, and head ordering patterns. The data are drawn from languages of different types and families including Chinese, English, Dutch, German, Hebrew, Norwegian, Swedish, and Vietnamese. The book, thus, contributes to our understanding of a crucial property of natural language and should be of relevance to readers who are interested in the cross-linguistic approach to Universal Grammar research.

Reconstruction Effects In Relative Clauses

168,28€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Reconstruction effects in relative clauses are a class of phenomena where the external head of the relative clause seems to behave as if it occupied a position within the relative clause, as far as some commonly accepted principle of grammar is concerned. An often cited type of example is "The [relative of his] [which every man admires most] is his mother.", where the pronoun "his" in the relative head appears to be bound by the quantified noun phrase "every man" in the relative clause - although the latter does not c-command the former, which is commonly required for binding. Several solutions have been developed in various theoretical frameworks. One interesting aspect about reconstruction effects in relative clauses is that they can be used as a benchmark for competing theories of grammar: Which architecture of the syntax-semantics interface can provide the most satisfying explanation for these phenomena? This volume brings together researchers working in different frameworks but looking at the same set of empirical facts, enabling the reader to develop their own perspective on the perfect tradeoff between syntax and semantics in a theory of grammar.

Memorization And The Compound-Phrase Distinction - An Investigation Of Complex Constructions In German, French And English

de Marcel Schlechtweg

184,18€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Over the last decades, it has been hotly debated whether and how compounds, i.e. word-formations, and phrases differ from each other. The book discusses this issue by investigating compounds and phrases from a structural, semantic-functional and, crucially, cognitive perspective. The analysis focuses on compounds and phrases that are composed of either an adjective and a noun or two nouns in German, French and English. Having distinguished compounds from phrases on structural and semantic-functional grounds, the author claims that compounds are by their nature more appropriate to be stored in the mental lexicon than phrases and supports his argument with empirical evidence from new psycholinguistic studies. In sum, the book maintains the separation between compounds and phrases and reflects upon its cognitive consequences.

Symmetry, Shared Labels And Movement In Syntax

de Andreas Blümel

151,05€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 What is the trigger for displacement phenomena in natural language syntax? And how can constraints on syntactic movement be derived from interface conditions and so-called Third Factor principles? Within the Minimalist Program a standard answer to the first question is that it is driven by morphosyntactic features. This monograph challenges that view and suggests that the role of features in driving syntactic computation has been overestimated. Instead it proposes that "labeling" -- the detection of a prominent element in sets formed by Merge -- plays a role in driving transformations, and labeling itself is understood to derive from an interplay of efficient computation and the need for a label at the Conceptual-Intentional systems. It explores this idea in four empirical domains: Long-distance dependencies, Criterial Freezing-phenomena, nested dependencies and ATB-movement. The languages considered include English, German and Hebrew.<A></A>

Adjectival Modification And Order Restrictions - The Influence Of Temporariness On Prenominal Word Order

de Sven Kotowski

168,28€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 "Adjectival modification and order restrictions" beschäftigt sich mit dem Einfluss der Stadien-/Individuen-Level-Distinktion (SL/IL) auf Abfolgebeschränkungen pränominaler Adjektive. Die oft postulierte Beschränkung, dass SL-Adjektive nomenferner realisiert werden als IL-Adjektive, wird zurückgewiesen und als Epiphänomen generellerer Faktoren beschrieben. Das Buch widmet sich Adjektivklassifikationen und Modifikationsmustern sowie der SL-/IL-Debatte i.A., den Grundlagen adjektivischer Abfolgebeschränkungen i.B. und überprüft die formaltheoretischen Hypothesen anhand einer breiten Korpusstudie sowie zweier Fragebogenstudien. Es veranschaulicht, dass die Flüchtigkeit adjektivischer Konzepte als maßgebender Faktor für Folgebeschränkungen empirisch nicht haltbar ist. Die präferierte pränominale Position von SL-Adjektiven wird als Folge ihrer Natur als absolut-graduierbare Adjektive sowie der Distinktion zwischen Objekt- und Artenmodifikation beschrieben. Die empirischen Studien erhärten diese Hypothesen. Das Buch stellt sich gängigen Hypothesen zu Abfolgebeschränkungen kritsch entgegen und ist von Interesse für Syntaktiker und Semantiker, die sich mit DP-Struktur, der SL-/IL-Debatte und adjektivischer Modifikation beschäftigen.
Adjectival Modification And Order Restrictions - The Influence Of Temporariness On Prenominal Word Order

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This monographs investigates into the influence of the individual-/stage-level distinction (IL/SL) on order restrictions of multiple prenominal adjectives (AORs). It rejects the restriction regularly postulatedacross different research frameworksthat SL-adjectives are being realized farther from the head noun than IL-adjectives, relegating the alleged constraint to an epiphenomenon of more general principles. While formal-theoretic hypotheses on AORs are formulated and put to the test empirically via a large corpus as well as two rating studies, the book also addresses adjective classification, modification patterns, and the IL-SL-debate in general. The preferred prenominal positions of typical SL-adjectives are argued to follow from their nature as absolute-gradable adjectives as well as from the distinction between object- and kind-modification. The empirical studies corroborate these considerations. The book critically discusses and opposes several well-established hypotheses on AORs, sketches a flexible and parsimonious syntax of adjectival modification, and will be of interest to syntacticians and semanticists working on DP-structure, the IL-SL-debate, and adjectival modification

 This volume contributes to a linguistic program characterized by the view that explanatory goals in syntax and semantics can be met only in models that are sufficiently formalized. The properties of these formalizations must be well understood, and they have to do justice to both the syntactic and semantic aspects of a construction. The contributions shed light on this view from the perspectives of theoretical linguistics (semantics, syntax), automata theory, and computational and mathematical linguistics.

Lexical Segmentation In Slovak And German

de Adriana Hanulíková

134,49€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 All humans are equipped with perceptual and articulatory mechanisms which (in healthy humans) allow them to learn to perceive and produce speech. One basic question in psycholinguistics is whether humans share similar underlying processing mechanisms for all languages, or whether these are fundamentally different due to the diversity of languages and speakers. This book provides a cross-linguistic examination of speech comprehension by investigating word recognition in users of different languages. The focus is on how listeners segment the quasi-continuous stream of sounds that they hear into a sequence of discrete words, and how a universal segmentation principle, the Possible Word Constraint, applies in the recognition of Slovak and German.
