Abstract:

The present collection includes papers that address a wide range of
syntactic phenomena. In some, the authors discuss such major syntactic
properties as clausal architecture, syntactic labels and derivation, and
the nature of features and their role with respect to movement, agreement,
and event-related constructions. In addition, several papers offer
syntax-based discussions of aspects of acquisition, pedagogy, and
neurolinguistics, addressing issues related to case marking, negation,
thematic relations, and more. Several papers report on new findings
relevant to less commonly investigated languages, and all provide valuable
observations related to natural language syntactic properties, many of
which are universal in their implications. The authors challenge several
aspects of recent syntactic theory, broaden the applicable scope of others,
and introduce important and provocative analyses that bear on current
issues in linguistics.

There are many ways to donate to LINGUIST!

You can donate right now using our secure credit card form.

Alternatively you can also pledge right now and pay later.

For all information on donating and pledging, including information on how to donate by

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such can 
receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit 
organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be offset against 
your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more 
information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any gift 
you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting your human 
resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills in and returns 
to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure that doubles the 
value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment 
to check if your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
