Abstract:

Using different theoretical approaches and frameworks, this book addresses a
broad range of themes in contrastive linguistics, including inflection,
derivation and compounding, tense, wh-questions, post-verbal subjects, focus
and clitics, among others. Comparing English, German, Greek, Romance, Slavic
and South Pacific languages, the book highlights the significance of the
contrastive perspective for language-specific description and general
interface issues, casting light on contrasts between languages at the levels
of morphology and syntax. In this respect, it makes a valuable contribution to
our understanding of language typology and language universals.
 



Linguistic Field(s): Morphology
