Motion Predicates and the Compounding Parameter: A New Approach William Snyder University of Connecticut and Haskins Laboratories University of Maryland,15 April 2005 1. Background 1.1 Talmy’s Verb-framed/Satellite-framed Typology (1) Talmy (1985, 1991, 2000) distinguishes between “satellite-framed” (Englishtype) languages and “verb-framed” (Spanish-type) languages. (2) In English, path is norm...
When reading texts of different but closely related languages, intelligibility is determined among others by the number of words which are cognates of words in the reader’s language, and orthographic differences. Orthographic differences partly reflect pronunciation differences and therefore are partly a linguistic level. Dialectometric studies in particular showed that different linguistic lev...
This article investigates the cross-linguistic comparability of the newly developed lexical assessment tool Cross-linguistic Lexical Tasks (LITMUS-CLT). LITMUS-CLT is a part the Language Impairment Testing in Multilingual Settings (LITMUS) battery (Armon-Lotem, de Jong & Meir, 2015). Here we analyse results on receptive and expressive word knowledge tasks for nouns and verbs across 17 languages...
We present a discontinuous variant of treesubstitution grammar (tsg) based on Linear Context-Free Rewriting Systems. We use this formalism to instantiate a Data-Oriented Parsing model applied to discontinuous treebank parsing, and obtain a significant improvement over earlier results for this task. The model induces a tsg from the treebank by extracting fragments that occur at least twice. We g...
The fact that object shift only affects weak pronouns in mainland Scandinavian is seen as an instance of a more general observation that can be made in all Germanic languages: weak function words tend to avoid the edges of larger prosodic domains. This generalisation has been formulated within Optimality Theory in terms of alignment constraints on prosodic structure by Selkirk (1996) in explain...
Abstract: This paper examines cross-speaker and cross-dialectal variation in object symmetry effects in three Germanic languages, English, Norwegian and Swedish. We argue that object symmetry effects are not a unified phenomenon, but rather that the availability of locality obviating theme movement out of applicative structures has different sources in different constructions. Both case-based a...
This paper sheds light on the question of whether French resorts to post-focal compression (a reduction of pitch range), and the conditions under which it can do so. We present evidence from a production task in which thirteen native speakers of Standard French read scripted material; i.e. canonical sentences in which we manipulated the type of constituent found in post-verbal position (argumen...
This study investigates subject omission in six English-Inuktitut simultaneous bilingual children, aged 1;8-3;9, to examine whether there are cross-language influences in their language development. Previous research with other language pairs has shown that the morphosyntax of one language can influence the development of morphosyntax in the other language. Most of this research has focused on ...
