Asymmetries in Conjunct Agreement
Hindi-Urdu displays an asymmetry with respect to the availability of Closest Conjunct Agreement. It is available only to objects and not to subjects. Agreement with subjects is always agreement with the full conjunct. We argue that this asymmetry in Conjunct Agreement is related to another asymmetry between subject and object agreement in Indo-Aryan languages: object agreement never involves pe...
متن کاملAgreement Patterns
Agreement Patterns have been defined for improving communication in software and services development, as well as for providing a practitioner oriented approach for reusing existing agreement technologies. This article presents the notion of agreement patterns, their structure and some of the first identified examples.
متن کاملLinking, Optionality, and Ambiguity in Marathi
Optimality theory (OT; Prince and Smolensky 1993) has in a short time proven influential in theoretical phonology, and to a lesser degree in theoretical syntax. One of the main attractions of the theory is its strong commitment to typology. The basic hypothesis is that there is a set of universal constraints and languages differ only in how they rank the constraints. Since constraints are viola...
متن کاملComputational Complexity of Syntactic Agreement and Lexical Ambiguity
What do language users know about particular utterances, and how do they compute this knowledge? Consider the English sentence Kate was seen by Mary. English speakers are able to determine, among other things, that Mary is the underlying subject of the sentence (that is, she is the person who did the seeing); that the thing that she saw was Kate; that the utterance is in the passive voice, and ...
متن کاملSingle Conjunct Agreement and the Formal Treatment of Coordination in Lfg
In cases of single conjunct agreement (SCA), the features of one conjunct within a coordinate structure control syntactic agreement between the coordinate NP and agreement targets external to that NP. This requires agreement processes to see inside the f-structure representation of the coordinate structure. Despite its intuitive simplicity, it has turned out to be surprisingly difficult to deve...
