Abstract

abstract

The paper reports on an experiment that shows the preference of pair-list interpretations over single-pair interpretations in Russian multiple coordinated and non-coordinated wh-interrogatives and wh-exclamatives. Moreover, the paper points out that neither the Superiority effect nor the distinction between argument and adjunct wh-phrases determines the choice of an interpretation in interrogatives and exclamatives. In general, the results challenge the existing theories of multiple wh-interrogatives and open a new page in investigating multiple wh-exclamatives.

俄语多词句中的单对解释与对列解释实验

摘要本文报告了一项实验，该实验表明在俄语多重协调和非协调wh-interrogatives和wh-exclamatives中，对列释义比单对释义更受青睐。此外，论文还指出，在疑问句和感叹句中，无论是优势效应还是论点和从句之间的区别都不能决定解释的选择。总之，研究结果对现有的多重wh-interrogatives理论提出了挑战，并为研究多重wh-exclamatives揭开了新的一页。

期刊介绍： Journal of Slavic Linguistics, or JSL, is the official journal of the Slavic Linguistics Society. JSL publishes research articles and book reviews that address the description and analysis of Slavic languages and that are of general interest to linguists. Published papers deal with any aspect of synchronic or diachronic Slavic linguistics – phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, or pragmatics – which raises substantive problems of broad theoretical concern or proposes significant descriptive generalizations. Comparative studies and formal analyses are also published. Different theoretical orientations are represented in the journal. One volume (two issues) is published per year, ca. 360 pp.
