When linearity prevails over hierarchy in syntax

چکیده
Hierarchical structure has been cherished as a grammatical universal. We use experimental methods to show where linear order is also a relevant syntactic relation. An identical methodology and design were used across six research sites on South Slavic languages. Experimental results show that in certain configurations, grammatical production can in fact favor linear order over hierarchical structure. However, these findings are limited to coordinate structures and distinct from the kind of production errors found with comparable configurations such as "attraction" errors. The results demonstrate that agreement morphology may be computed in a series of steps, one of which is partly independent from syntactic hierarchy.

The religion of Islam has a monopoly on the path to the truth. Some verses of the Holy Quran with emphasis on the verses "Islam prevails over all religions" can be used as an intra-religious response to the notion of pluralism. This research has tried to e...

Abstract Over the last few decades, different mathematical methods have been used to design and analyze architectural spaces. Meanwhile, the graph theory provides an abstract model to study the spatial configuration, so that a simple and flexible mathematical framework is obtained to analyze the spatial topological features and their relationship with social and functional concepts in architec...

The hierarchy in architecture is an attempt to express the concept of transition and the gradual aspect of the process of perception. This principle is well-known as one of the fundamental principles in traditional art and is consistent with the hierarchy of being above its material level. This principle proposes, in the order of reaching a space, the fundamental pattern of connection, transfer...
