Extraction from relative and embedded interrogative clauses in Danish
In Danish relative clauses and embedded interrogative clauses are not extraction islands. However, there is an asymmetry between the two clauses. In Danish it is possible to extract the subject out of an embedded interrogative clause. Extraction of the subject out of a relative clause, on the other hand, is not allowed. In this paper we present a formal HPSG analysis of extraction in Danish whi...
متن کاملFrom SOV to SVO: In search of cognitive forces driving the historical change from Subject-Object-Verb to Subject-Verb-Object in main clauses of Dutch and German
In modern Dutch and German, main clauses have Subject-Verb-Object as basic word order (“Verb-second”, V2) but subordinate clauses have Subject-Object-Verb (“Verb-final”, Vf). In older forms of both languages, standard word order was SOV in all clause types. According to recent suggestions, perceptual/cognitive processing factors may have contributed to this historical development. Golden-Meadow...
متن کاملSubject/object processing asymmetries in Korean relative clauses: Evidence from ERP data.
Subject relative (SR) clauses have a reliable processing advantage in VO languages like English in which relative clauses (RCs) follow the head noun. The question is whether this is also routinely true of OV languages like Japanese and Korean, in which RCs precede the head noun. We conducted an event-related brain potential (ERP) study of Korean RCs to test whether the SR advantage manifests in...
متن کاملSubject And Object Dependency Extraction Using Finite-State Transducers
We describe and evaluate an approach for fast automatic recognition and extraction of subject and object dependency relations from large French corpora, using a sequence of finite-state transducers. The extraction is performed in two major steps: incremental finite-state parsing and extraction of subject/verb and object/verb relations. Our incremental and cautious approach during the first phas...
متن کاملEffects of local and global context on processing sentences with subject and object relative clauses.
An eye tracking study investigated the effects of local and global discourse context on the processing of subject and object relative clauses, whereby the contexts favored either a subject relative clause interpretation or an object relative clause interpretation. The fixation data replicated previous studies showing that object relative clause sentences were more difficult to process than subj...
