Natural language sometimes expresses negation in rather puzzlingly different forms. Different from Standard Negation (SN), Expletive Negation (EN) involves a negative marker that does not affect the t...
Icelandic nominal declension show (acc = dat) ≠ gen syncretisms which go against Caha's (2009) cross-linguistic pattern of of acc > gen > dat and hence seemingly violate the *ABA generalisation ...

In many languages, words in count syntax quantify over countable individuals (e.g., too many strings), while mass nouns often don’t (e.g., too much string). Theories differ in how they characterize no...
Inalienable possessors that are internal to an NP headed by a possessed noun show evidence in support of FEATURE SHARING through agreement between a possessor controller and a possessed target in the ...
A passive-like construction in Javanese (Austronesian) highlights how an object topicalization construction can be formally indistinguishable from a passive in languages lacking morphological case. Wh...

Most phonologists assume that phonological processes are encoded in terms of natural classes defined by sets of features. Thus, children acquiring a phonological grammar need some way to determine the...
