Acquisition of English Number Marking: The Singular–Plural Distinction
We present data from a preferential looking method to investigate when infants have mapped singular and plural markers in English onto the semantic distinction between singleton sets and sets with more than 1 individual. Twentyto 36-month-old children heard sentences that marked number in 1 of 2 ways: (a) redundantly with verb morphology, lexical quantifiers, and noun morphology (“Look, there A...
متن کاملThe role of classifiers in feature selection : number vs nature
Wrapper feature selection approaches are widely used to select a small subset of relevant features from a dataset. However, Wrappers suffer from the fact that they only use a single classifier when selecting the features. The problem of using a single classifier is that each classifier is of a different nature and will have its own biases. This means that each classifier will select different f...
متن کاملCase marking and alignment
In (1) the syntactic functions of S (gizona ‘man’ in 1a) and O (mutila ‘boy’ in 1b) are identically coded, while in (2) it is S (muzhchina ‘man’ in 2a) and A (muzhchina in 2b) that are identically coded. That is, the two languages differ in whether S is aligned with A or O. Henceforth we refer to syntactic functions such as A, O, and S as argument roles. Argument structure has to do with the nu...
متن کاملMarking time
Next, we discuss the point-based and interval-based versions of time. These were studied in Johan van Benthem’s book The logic of time and in several papers appearing around the same time: Vilain [1982], and Allen [1983], developed an interval algebra; Moszkowski and Manna [1983], as well as Schwartz, Melliar-Smith and Vogt [1983], advocated interval-based reasoning for hardware. The prohibitiv...
متن کاملTurkish Indefinites and Accusative Marking
The paper addresses the issue of the effects of overt accusative (Acc) vs. zero (∅) marking on the interpretation of indefinite direct objects in Turkish. Previous attacks on the issue came up with various associations of the overt accusative case with certain semantic and pragmatic categories. A representative list goes as follows: Discourse-linking (Nilsson 1985; Enç 1991; Zidani-Eroğlu 1997)...
