The duality of syntax: Unstable structures, labelling and linearisation Nat. Lang. Linguist. Theory (IF 1.156) Pub Date : 2023-09-07 Andrea Moro, Ian Roberts
This work aims to enhance the theory of Dynamic Asymmetry by including symmetric head-head structures, the inevitable first step of any derivation (the “ignition” problem). The symmetry-breaking “repair” options available give rise to basic head-initial and head-final word orders. One of the consequences of this approach is that all word-order parameters reduce to head movement options. We take this

Cyclic residues of affix deletion in Armenian passive stems Nat. Lang. Linguist. Theory (IF 1.156) Pub Date : 2023-06-01 Hossep Dolatian
Morphophonological derivations are often simultaneously isomorphic to both surface morphotactics, cyclic phonology, and to abstract morphosemantic structure. On the surface, passive verbs in Armenian violate this isomorphism. Verbs consist of a bound stem plus suffixes. Passive stems are pre-consonantal and seem morphologically derived from roots, but their phonological structure is only predictable

This article investigates the structural and interpretative properties of relative clauses in Shupamem, an under-studied Grassfields Bantu language of Cameroon, focusing on the integration status of non-restrictive relative clauses, an under-researched aspect of relative clause syntax. We show that non-restrictive relatives have the same properties as restrictive relatives in the language and argue

A syntactic derivation of the reduplication patterns and their interpretation in Mandarin Nat. Lang. Linguist. Theory (IF 1.156) Pub Date : 2022-08-30 Chen Wang
This paper aims to propose a syntactic approach to derive the three reduplication patterns for disyllabic words in Mandarin: the ABAB verbs, the AABB verbs, and the AABB adjectives. Based on Borer’s exo-skeletal model, I argue that there is no direct connection between the category and the form. The morphemes to be reduplicated enter syntax as roots which are unvalued both in categorial property and

Reversibility in specificational copular sentences and pseudoclefts Nat. Lang. Linguist. Theory (IF 1.156) Pub Date : 2022-04-07 Martina Martinović
In this paper I discuss one property of specificational copular sentences and pseudoclefts, the apparent reversibility of the order of their two major constituents. In English, this manifests itself in reversible surface word order. It has been argued in the literature that reversibility in specificational pseudoclefts does not indicate reversibility in the syntax, meaning that the two word orders

Attitude role shift is a sign language strategy to report someone else’s utterance or thought. It has been analyzed either as a kind of demonstration or, alternatively, as a complex construction involving subordination plus a context-shifting operator. The present work reports the results of a sentence-to-picture matching task developed in three different sign languages (Italian Sign Language, French

The Mirror Alignment Principle Nat. Lang. Linguist. Theory (IF 1.156) Pub Date : 2022-01-28 Sam Zukoff
As codified by Baker’s (1985) “Mirror Principle” (MP), the linear order of morphemes within a word generally correlates with hierarchical syntactic structure. While Baker uses morphological ordering to demonstrate the inseparability of syntax and morphology, he simply assumes cyclic morphological concatenation as the formal means by which MP-compliance is enacted in the grammar. This paper develops
