Focusing on the syntactic features of Welsh, this 2007 publication explores key elements such as word order, agreement, tense, and clause structure. It provides a comprehensive analysis of the language's grammatical framework, making it an essential resource for linguists and those interested in Welsh syntax.
Focusing on cross-linguistic syntax, this book serves as an essential guide for students with no prior grammatical knowledge. It clearly explains key concepts, categories, and terminology, making it invaluable for those studying language description, typology, and linguistic fieldwork. Through illustrations and accessible explanations, it aims to enhance understanding of syntax across different languages.
This book addresses central questions in the evolution of language: where it came from; how and why it evolved; how it came to be culturally transmitted; and how languages diversified. It does so from the perspective of the latest work in linguistics, neuroscience, psychology, and computer science, and deploys the latest methods and theories to probe into the origins and subsequent development of the only species that has languages.
