Grammatical theory Vol. 2

Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on formal grammar theories, this book explores various linguistic frameworks, including Phrase Structure Grammar and Transformational Grammar, using German as the primary language for analysis. It examines key concepts such as arguments, adjuncts, and syntactic structures while critically evaluating the nativism hypothesis in language acquisition. The text also addresses current theoretical debates, such as branching structures and the role of abstract entities in syntax. The comprehensive approach aims to bridge gaps in existing literature and provides insights for students of syntactic theory.
