Manually maintaining comprehensive databases of multi-word expressions, for example Verb-Particle Constructions (VPCs), is infeasible. We describe a new type level classifier for potential VPCs, which uses information in the Google Web1T corpus to perform a simple linguistic constituency test. Specifically, we consider the fronting test, comparing the frequencies of the two possible orderings o...
Cross-linguistically, there are three grammatical devices to process the question mark j+Whi: the reduplication of certain elements in the predicate, Subject-Auxiliary Inversion, and the use of question particles. Also cross-linguistically, there are two devices for grammar to process the focus mark (+Focus]: the fronting of focused constituents and the insertion of a . Focus Marker such as the...
We propose an unsupervised inference rules-based categorial grammar learning method, which aims to simulate language acquisition. The learner has been trained and tested on an artificial language fragment that contains both ambiguity and recursion. We demonstrate that the learner has 100% coverage with respect to the target grammar using a relatively small set of initial assumptions. We also sh...
This paper investigates coordination in Sign Language of the Netherlands (NGT). We offer an account for a typologically unusual pattern found this language. show that conjuncts coordinated structure NGT may violate constraint governing structures spoken languages, which we refer to as ‘Parallel Structure Constraint’. The violation consists asymmetric fronting second conjunct structure. argue Pa...
One of the intriguing parametric differences between Icelandic and Mainland Scandinavian languages (MSc.; Da(nish), Nor(wegian) and Swe(dish)) is the fact that Icelandic allows Object Shift (OS) of weak pronominals as well as full DPs, whereas MSc. allows the former (Holmberg 1986, Holmberg and Platzack 1995, Bobaljik and Thráinsson 1998, Thráinsson 2001). Thus the main question of this paper i...
Introduction The topicalization of partial verbal projections in German (henceforth: pvp topicalization)
The Poverty of the Stimulus (PoS) argument holds that children do not receive enough evidence to infer the existence of core aspects of language, such as the dependence of linguistic rules on hierarchical phrase structure. We reevaluate one version of this argument with a Bayesian model of grammar induction, and show that a rational learner without any initial language-specific biases could lea...
Recent vowel corpora show that there are often clear acoustic differences between vowels produced in different phonetic contexts. We expand on a recent corpus of Northern Standard Dutch (NSD) vowels by including a variety of consonantal contexts. Our results show that there are very clear contextual effects on the spectral and temporal properties of NSD vowels. The most striking effect is the a...
