This study explored the comprehension and production of sentences derived by syntactic movement, in orally trained school-age Hebrew-speaking children with moderate to profound hearing impairment, aged 7;8-9;9 years. Experiments 1 and 2 tested the comprehension of relative clauses and topicalization sentences (with word orders of OVS [object, verb, subject] and OSV [object, subject, verb]) usin...

A headed relative clause is a syntactically complex modifier involving abstraction over an internal position of the clause (the relativization site) and connected to some constituent it modifies (the relative ''head''). In the standard approach, abstraction is syntactically implemented by means of an unbounded dependency between the relativization site and a relative operator taking scope over ...

We describe CARIN, a novel family of representation languages, which integrate the expressive power of Horn rules and of description logics. We address the key issue in designing such a language, namely, providing a sound and complete inference procedure. We identify existential entailment as a core problem in reasoning in CARIN, and describe an existential entailment algorithm for CARIN langua...
