Participants in Experim...
متن کاملArgument Order Alternations in Dutch
We investigate the factors that influence argument order variations in Dutch, focusing on ditransitive verbs. Evidence from grammaticality judgments is complemented with evidence from the distributions of the alternants in corpora of spoken and written Dutch. We find that while the NP/PP alternation is influenced by weight, the direct object shift (DOS) in the dative alternation is bound to cer...
متن کاملUsing phonotactics to learn phonological alternations
1 Introduction Linguistic theory presents a search space of possible grammars. Under that theory, learning a language requires navigating that search space in order to find the correct grammar (the most restrictive grammar consistent with the overt data provided to the learner). The computational difficulty of that task depends almost entirely on the formal structure of the search space. Any pl...
