[Lingtyp] finiteness

[Bernat Bardagil Mas]

Dear Nigel,

You could check out Groothuis 2022 for a non-binary view of finiteness in some Romance varieties:

Groothuis, Kim. 2022. “On the Relation between Finiteness and Clause Size : Evidence from Romanian and Southern Italo‐Romance Irrealis Clauses.” TRANSACTIONS OF THE PHILOLOGICAL SOCIETY 120 (1): 32–68. https://doi.org/10.1111/1467-968x.12226.
  https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/1467-968X.12226

Best,

Bernat Bardagil

Subject: [Lingtyp] finiteness

Dear All,
I'm preparing some lectures on the morphosyntax of non-finite forms in Romance. Any suggestions for recent literature on the general question of the typology of the finite/non-finite distinction would be welcome. I found John Lowe's (2019) article very helpful: The syntax and semantics of nonfinite forms. Annual Review of Linguistics 5, 309-328. But there must be more out there I haven't caught up with.
Best
Nigel
