<div>This request is for a colleague who's not on the
list. Does anyone know of recent cross-linguistic
work on the positional tendencies of complement
clauses? It's often said that postverbal or
sentence-final position is preferred or most frequent,
regardless of the order of A, O, and V. That is what
Dryer 1980 found, using a survey of 31 languages. We
wonder if there has been a larger survey since then.<br>
