Rich Descriptions and Simple Explanations in Morphosyntax and Language Acquisition

Beschreibung

This volume offers new perspectives on the tension between the rich patterns of language variation that emerge from comparative studies and the quest for simple theoretical primitives. The chapters analyze a wide range of phenomena, and relate them to fundamental questions of universality, linguistic variation, and learnability.
