Abstract

Decades of research on bilingual grammars corroborate the integrated nature of these systems, leading to the conjecture that these representations are ‘shared’ (Marian & Spivey 2003, Kroll & Gollan 2014, Putnam et al. 2018). A specific population of bilinguals, namely heritage language speakers, shows a tendency for highly variable allomorphy (Polinsky 2018, Putnam et al. 2021); however, with this aspect of grammar that is often in a state of flux, there are instances of stability. Here we thoroughly investigate the stability of tense allomorphy of in North American Norwegian (NAmNo), a moribund heritage language spoken in the Upper Midwestern United States. Formally, we build upon initial observations provided by Lykke (2020), showing how a late-insertion approach to the syntax–phonological interface in combination with events, features, and precedence (EFP) phonology (Raimy 2000, Papillon 2020, Idsardi 2022) provides a straightforward account of the structural complexities that determine exponency in bilingual grammars.
双语综合语法的稳定性——北美挪威语的时态表达
几十年来对双语语法的研究证实了这些系统的综合性,从而推测这些表示是“共享的”(Marian&Spivey 2003,Kroll&Gollan 2014,Putnam等人2018)。特定的双语人群,即传统语言使用者,表现出高度可变的变体倾向(Polinsky 2018,Putnam等人2021);然而,由于语法的这一方面经常处于不断变化的状态,因此也存在稳定性的例子。在这里,我们深入研究了北美挪威语(NAmNo)时态变体的稳定性,NAmNo是美国上中西部地区一种奄奄一息的传统语言。形式上,我们建立在Lykke(2020)提供的初步观察的基础上,展示了语法-语音界面的后期插入方法如何结合事件、特征和优先(EFP)音韵学(Raimy 2000,Papillon 2020,Idsardi 2022),直接说明了决定双语语法表达的结构复杂性。
