3. Looking for Cognitive Foundations of Functional SequencesFranc Marušič, Petra Mišmaš, Rok Žaucer, 2019, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Opis: With the multiplication of various functional projections, syntactic structures became very complex entities. Approaches like Cartography (e.g. Cinque and Rizzi 2008) went one step further than most other approaches, proposing that each sentence comprises of a number of universal, strictly ordered functional projections. In the noun phrase, the strictly ordered functional projections are said to be responsible not only for the relative order of numerals, demonstratives and nouns (cf. Cinque 2005), but also for the universal order of various types of adjectives (cf. Hetzron 1978; Sproat and Shih 1991; Cinque 1994; Scott 2002, etc.). Cinque and Rizzi (2008) discuss possible origins of the many hierarchies of functional projections and suggest that they might derive from general cognition. If cognition and its restrictions are behind the hierarchy of functional projections, then the order of projections hosting adjectives should be reflected in various non-linguistic cognitive processes. We designed several experiments to test this hypothesis. Our experiments did not confirm our hypothesis; but as we have also identified problems in the design of our experiments, our results do not warrant a clear rejection
of the hypothesis either. Ključne besede: noun phrase, adjective ordering restrictions, functional hierarchy, experimental syntax, cognitive foundations of syntax Objavljeno v RUNG: 22.11.2019; Ogledov: 3733; Prenosov: 0 Gradivo ima več datotek! Več... |
4. On the nature of prenumeral adjectivesFranc Marušič, Rok Žaucer, 2019, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci (vabljeno predavanje) Opis: Following Greenberg’s generalization 20 prenominal adjectives follow numerals. In
this paper we discuss a group of adjectives that appear in unexpected positions: adjectives
preceding numerals prenominally. We argue that these adjectives violate cross-linguistic
generalizations only apparently, as the noun phrases with such adjectives actually contain
additional covert structure – structure that is not realized phonologically/phonetically. Ključne besede: Greenberg’s generalization 20, adjectives, numerals, noun phrase, Slovenian syntax Objavljeno v RUNG: 05.11.2019; Ogledov: 3536; Prenosov: 0 Gradivo ima več datotek! Več... |
