NorEngDP-GLOW2013 1 Word order and definiteness in the Norwegian DP: Complexity, frequency and structural similarity in bilingual acquisition and attrition Nowegian DP constructions are relatively complex, especially compared to English. Norwegian possessives may be pre- or postnominal (1a, b), while English possessives are always prenominal (1c). The distinction between the two word orders in
Féry.doc The disambiguating role of prosody in relative clauses Caroline Féry, Goethe University Frankfurt I will address the following puzzle: In the syntactic literature on relative clauses, it is tacitly or explicitly admitted that users of a language share some implicit knowledge about the relationship between prosody and syntax. As a result, overt prosodic phrasing should help speakers to mak

GLOW submission In Defense of the Merge-Only Hypothesis Koji Fujita / Kyoto University In this presentation I defend and further consolidate the “Merge-only” hypothesis of current minimalism (Chomsky 2008, 2010, Berwick 2011, Berwick & Chomsky 2011, inter alia) by proposing a theory of language evolution according to which it was Merge that gave rise to other major components of the human language

Reducing linguistic variation to Third Factor mechanisms Jordi Fortuny (UB, CLT-UAB, Complex Systems Lab-UPF) & Adriana Fasanella (CLT-UAB) The objective of our study is to develop a model of morphophonological analysis that enables the learner to infer high-order properties of the target language. Our first step is to express in a parametric way part of the mechanism of data analysis used by the

1 The Emergent Nature of Parametric Variation Evelina Leivada Universitat de Barcelona One of the key points in the biolinguistic agenda concerns the nature of linguistic (parametric) variation. The relevant literature makes reference to three possible loci: (i) parameters that are part of the mental lexicon by being localized on functional heads (lexical parameters), (ii) parameters that are synt

Abstracts 6th Conference on Towers in Medieval Europe – Lund 2019 The real “donjon”. A contribution to castle terminology Bas Aarts (The Netherlands) The term “donjon” is frequently used in castle literature to refer to “the main tower” of a castle as the strongest element of the fortification.
