The syntactic complexity of Russian relative clauses
Although syntactic complexity has been investigated across dozens of studies, the available data still greatly underdetermine relevant theories of processing difficulty. Memory-based and expectation-based theories make opposite predictions regarding fine-grained time course of processing difficulty in syntactically constrained contexts, and each class of theory receives support from results on ...
متن کاملContext effects in syntactic ambiguity resolution: discourse and semantic influences in parsing reduced relative clauses.
This article examines how certain types of semantic and discourse context affect the processing of relative clauses which are temporarily ambiguous between a relative clause and a main clause (e.g., "The actress selected by the director ..."). We review recent results investigating local semantic context and temporal context, and we present some new data investigating referential contexts. The ...
متن کاملIncorporation : Morpho - Syntactic vs . Semantic Considerations
The term incorporation canonically refers to cases of complementation in which a theme argument, lacking functional structure, is syntactically fused with the verb. In this pristine form incorporation appears to be a close kin of word-level compounding. Recently, however, the term has been extended to apply to structures in which the theme argument is realized as a full blown noun phrase and sh...
متن کاملSyntactic and Semantic Constraints on Head Gapping in Japanese Relative Clauses
0 Introduction This paper represents the continutation of research into the identiication of the relationship between the head of a relative clause and the clause body, for Japanese. Unlike many languages, a `trace' of the gap associated with the head of a gapping relative clause is not lexically marked in Japanese, and gapping and non-gapping clauses are not explicitly distinguished. Our curre...
متن کاملSemantic indeterminacy in object relative clauses.
This article examined whether semantic indeterminacy plays a role in comprehension of complex structures such as object relative clauses. Study 1 used a gated sentence completion task to assess which alternative interpretations are dominant as the relative clause unfolds; Study 2 compared reading times in object relative clauses containing different animacy configurations to unambiguous passive...
