Clausal Word Order and the Left Periphery in Galician
Inbunden, 2014
1844 kr
Lägg i varukorg
It is quite remarkable that, after over a half-century of research in generative grammar, there is still uncertainty and debate surrounding the analysis of preverbal subjects in a number of null-subject languages. The implications of this debate are far-reaching for generative theory: if preverbal …
Syntactic Complexity across Interfaces
