Determiner spreading has been observed in numerous non-standard Germanic varieties but has been most extensively explored in Modern Greek. This paper considers recurring indefi nites in Norwegian in light of Greek polydefi nites, fi nding numerous similarities. In both languages, structures involving multiple determiners allow violations of adjectival ordering restrictions (AORs) and are prohibited with adjectives that may not occur in predicative position. However, these similarities are only apparent, as both can be explained by the fact that polyindefi nites in Norwegian involve parallel direct modifi cation. Furthermore, they are homophonous with nominal proforms such as a big one (en stor en). These facts, together with their prosodic characteristics, hints at an analysis where these polyindefi nites are nominal proforms.","PeriodicalId":347827,"journal":{"name":"The Sign of the V: Papers in Honour of Sten Vikner","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126277648","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such a nominal specifi cation of Fin licenses subject movement much as -i in qui French relatives according to the analysis presented in Rizzi & Shlonsky (2007).

The two latter genitive types are both subtypes of the class of quantity genitives. I lay out a chart of Danish pre-nominal genitives and justify the inclusion of each type and its position in the chart. In a detailed table, the differences are characterised and exemplifi ed to make comparison possible and contrasts transparent. Finally, I discuss a number of issues concerning defi niteness, pronominalization, constituency and cliticization raised by a DP-analysis of determiner genitives proposed by Sten Vikner. Since we are still far from understanding the full landscape of Danish genitives syntactically as well as semantically, the aim of this paper is to offer an accurate description of the data in order that the creation of a coherent theory of Danish genitives may be thereby facilitated. 1. Methodological preliminaries The fi rst major work to explore and explicate generative syntax was Chomsky’s The Logical Structure of Linguistic Theory in the mid-1950s.2 Three interdependent goals were set up: First, the construction of grammars for particular languages; second, the construction of an abstract theory of 1 My heart-felt thanks are due to professor emeritus Robert E.Wall, UT Austin, for reading and discussing the paper with me. 2 Later published as Chomsky 1975.","PeriodicalId":347827,"journal":{"name":"The Sign of the V: Papers in Honour of Sten Vikner","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121070491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Similarly, a low acceptability rating can, among other things, be caused by processing diffi culty. The question examined in this article is whether a slowdown in reaction time always affects acceptability negatively. To investigate this, an acceptability study was performed, comparing sentences that only differ regarding the main verb (Mia noticed/presumed the pig in the pen needed water) and where the word-for-word reaction time data in reading is known from previous research. The reaction time data show that both types involve a slowdown, but at different locations in the sentence (at the embedded subject vs. at the embedded verb) and for different reasons (missing complementizer vs. reanalysis). The acceptability ratings show that the two types of slowdowns are not equally costly: The slowdown due to reanalysis causes a signifi cantly lower rating than the slowdown due to a missing complementizer. The result illustrates that not all processing diffi culties (measured as a slowdown in self-paced reading) have the same adverse impact on acceptability judgments.","PeriodicalId":347827,"journal":{"name":"The Sign of the V: Papers in Honour of Sten Vikner","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128022104","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, translations of Burns’ poems in the middle of the 20th century by another dialect-poet, Martin N. Hansen, are taken into account, as well as a translation of one of the longer poems by the author Hans Kirk. However, the inspiration from Scots already began in the early 19th century with the author St. St. Blicher. 1. Early inspiration around 1800: St. St. Blicher translating Ossian and Laidlaw During his years of study in Copenhagen, the Danish poet and author Steen Steensen Blicher (1782–1849) became very engaged in the Ossian epic poems. He certainly believed in the claim of James Macpherson (1736–1795) that, at remote places in Scotland, he had found the long stories of the Celtic past by the bard Ossian, and had published them in 1761 and 1763, although Samuel Johnson and others had raised serious doubts as to the originality of the poems, implying that Macpherson had written them himself. Blicher’s translation into Standard Danish in two volumes, fi rst published in 1807 and 1809 (Blicher 1920), was quite well acknowledged, and at the time he was called “Ossians heldige Oversætter” [Ossian’s skillful translator] (Nørvig 1943: 54). Stylistically, the poems may be described as a ‘conglomerate of the Bible, the Iliad and the Aeneid’ which corresponded to the image people at Macpherson’s time wanted to","PeriodicalId":347827,"journal":{"name":"The Sign of the V: Papers in Honour of Sten Vikner","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124352359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Though this pattern is often assumed to be universal, studies have shown that Danish (and other Mainland Scandinavian languages) may be exceptions. It has also been argued that the patterns of (un)acceptability are biased by expert intuitions. We present data from 100 native speakers of English which confi rms (i) that English complement wh-clauses are islands, (ii) that there is a (subtle) argumentadjunct asymmetry, and (iii) that this acceptability pattern is not due to participant bias. Together with earlier fi ndings on Danish, these results are compatible with an island account that relies on parametric variation in the possibility of CP-recursion.","PeriodicalId":347827,"journal":{"name":"The Sign of the V: Papers in Honour of Sten Vikner","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128096073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, the main syntactic properties of the construction will be described. A related construction is found in Icelandic, where ‘we Anna’ means ‘Anna and I’. This construction has recently been subject to a detailed examination in Sigurðsson & Wood (2019). The Finnish and Fenno-Swedish construction will be compared with the Icelandic one. The fact that ‘we...with Anna’ unlike Icelandic ‘we Anna’ can be discontinuous means that it has more complex syntax. A generalization is proposed characterising the syntactic conditions on ‘we...with Anna’ in Finnish and Fenno-Swedish.
