3. Experimental syntax and Slavic languagesArthur Stepanov, 2021, samostojni znanstveni sestavek ali poglavje v monografski publikaciji Opis: The chapter reviews a number of empirical domains that recently came into the focus of research in Slavic experimental syntax, including island phenomena, syntactic Superiority effects, various types of agreement, word order, and scope interaction, among others. This research mostly relies on sentence acceptability experiments applied across larger pools of participants, but the chapter also reviews selected studies using related experimental methods (e.g. elicited production and sentence–picture verification). The chapter concludes by identifying a number of conceptual issues in syntactic theory, for which we believe Slavic experimental syntax has a potential to make a particularly strong contribution.

6. Measuring free word order: Some empirical and modeling perspectivesArtur Stepanov, predavanje na tuji univerzi Opis: Languages manifesting flexibility of word order (within the sentence's compositional meaning) have always presented a challenge for modern theories of syntax requiring any deviation from the canonical word order to be grammatically motivated. Parasyntactic motivations such as information structural or stylistic requirements may account for some portion of this flexibility, but not all of it. In addition, native speakers do not necessarily accept canonical and non-canonical word orders to an equal extent. In fact, the latter typically receive lower acceptability scores than the former, albeit above the subjective threshold for what would count as "ungrammatical". Some of the combinatorially possible word orders are not acceptable at all. In this experimental study we scrutinize different word order sequences in a free word order language (Serbo-Croatian) and attempt to isolate independent displacement factors responsible for various elements of the sentence appearing away from their canonical structural positions. We explore differential and cumulative effects of these independent factors to predict speakers' acceptability scores.

8. Can we explain strict ordering restrictions with extralinguistic properties?Franc Marušič, Petra Mišmaš, Rok Žaucer, Luka Komidar, Gregor Sočan, prispevek na konferenci brez natisa Opis: Cartographic approach to syntax models strict universal word orders with a universal hierarchy of functional projections. For example, universal order of adjectives [Adjs]
(cf. Hetzron 1978, Sproat & Shih 1991, etc.), supposedly comes from a universal hierarchy of
FPs which host specific types of Adjs (Scott 2002). Adopting this as a premise, we explore the
origin of this hierarchy, i.e., the origin of the specific ordering of individual FPs in the
functional hierarchy and thus the origin in which Adjs end up being linearized.

9. Experimenting with Highest Conjunct Agreement under Left Branch ExtractionBoban Arsenijević, Franc Marušič, Jana Willer-Gold, 2020, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Opis: A debate has developed in the recent theoretical and experimental linguistic literature on the status and the locus of conjunct agreement in South Slavic (SS; Marušič et al. 2007, Bošković 2009, Franks & Willer Gold 2014, Murphy & Puškar 2015; Marušič et al. 2015 and Willer Gold et al. 2016). One of the pertinent issues of the debate is the status of Highest Conjunct Agreement – agreement with the hierarchically highest conjunct (NP1) – in sentences with a preverbal subject. The question around which the debate revolves is a basic one: Is there Highest Conjunct Agreement (HCA) in Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian (BCS), and how is it blocked, or derived, respectively?
Ključne besede: syntax, agreement, conjunct agrement, left branch extraction, Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian

10. Distributed agreement in participial sandwiched configurationsFranc Marušič, Andrew Nevins, 2020, samostojni znanstveni sestavek ali poglavje v monografski publikaciji Opis: In recent years, several proposals have appeared that try to model the patterns
of agreement with coordinate noun phrases found in South Slavic Languages. We
investigate agreement in so-called sandwiched configurations, whereby a coordinated noun phrase sits between two agreeing participles. In such cases, the two
participles do not necessarily agree with each other, given a scenario in which the
first and the second conjunct have different phi-features. This means the two participles choose their target of agreement independently. We argue the results of our
experimental study favor an approach to agreement that places it partially in PF.
