Martins","doi":"10.5565/REV/CATJL.35","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5565/REV/CATJL.35","url":null,"abstract":"This paper proposes that object scrambling both in Old and Contemporary Portuguese is a strategy to create appropriate information focus configurations. Essentially, it makes the rightmost constituent that would otherwise bear the neutral sentence nuclear stress escape it. In narrow information focus structures this amounts to defocusing of the scrambled constituent. In broad information focus sentences the scrambled constituent is prosodically and pragmatically demoted with respect to salience. Thus, leftward displacement of the scrambled constituent either allows another constituent to acquire discourse/informational prominence or creates a ‘flat’ structure in that respect. The informational import of the scrambling strategy is constant throughout the history of Portuguese. But while Old Portuguese allowed both short scrambling (i.e. adjunction to VP) and middle scrambling (i.e. raising to multiple Spec,TP), only short scrambling is a grammatical option in Contemporary European Portuguese. Hence, Old Portuguese scrambling could derive SOV sentences whereas Contemporary European Portuguese scrambling maintains the object in postverbal position. The view that scrambling may induce loss or downgrading of discourse/ informational prominence as it removes constituents from the clause-final position to which such prominence is assigned is supported by cross-linguistic evidence (Taylor & Pintzuk 2010 for Old English, Pinkster 1990 and Devine & Stephens 2006 for Latin).","PeriodicalId":43160,"journal":{"name":"Catalan Journal of Linguistics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71035124","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}

En aquest article investiguem la relacio entre el canvi sintactic i l’estatus informatiu en alternances de l’ordre verb-objecte, OV i VO, en angles antic i al principi de l’angles mitja. La hipotesi principal es que el canvi sintactic i les restriccions sobre l’estatus informatiu son independents. L’analisi que presentem es basa en 1500 frases AuxV i VAux de set textos de l’angles antic i tres textos de l’angles mitja. Considerem tres variables independents que influeixen en la posicio dels objectes dins de la frase: el text, l’estatus informatiu i la complexitat sintactica. Desenvolupem un model quantitatiu del canvi sintactic al llarg del temps, que procedeix independentment de la variacio sintactica sincronica deguda a l’estatus informatiu i a la complexitat sintactica; a continuacio testem el model amb les dades de l’angles antic i mitja i tambe amb les dades historiques de l’islandes que mostren els mateixos tipus de variacio. Mostrem com els patrons predits pel nostre model es manifesten clarament tant en angles com en islandes, cosa que confirma fortament les nostres hipotesis.","PeriodicalId":43160,"journal":{"name":"Catalan Journal of Linguistics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71036801","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}

Dikken","doi":"10.5565/REV/CATJL.93","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5565/REV/CATJL.93","url":null,"abstract":"Els resultatives direccionals mostren restriccions sintactiques sorprenents. En llengues romaniques, a grans trets, no apareixen mai amb verbs de manera de moviment. En holandes, els resultatius direccionals amb verbs de manera de moviment normalment requereixen l’ordre posposicional en el SP direccional — pero l’ordre preposicional es gramatical sota circumstancies que fins ara han desafiat qualsevol explicacio unificada i aprofundida. Centrant-nos basicament en l’holandes, en aquest article presentem una analisi de les construccions direccionals resultatives i la representacio sintactica de la manera of moviment que se centra en els postulats principals seguents: ( a ) les construccions direccionals resultatives amb verbs de manera de moviment es poden construir, en principi, amb dues estructures, una amb el verb lleuger GO i l’altra amb el verb lleuger GET; ( b ) mentre que tots dos verbs lleugers prenen un complement d’oracio reduida, GET tambe pot prendre un complement encapcalat per una particula; ( c ) la particula de les construccions amb GET pot legitimar una P direccional nul·la quan tenim una estructura de SPs direccionals construits amb una adposicio no inherentment direccional, cosa que dona ordre preposicional; ( d ) l’absencia d’una particula en les construccions amb GO forca que o be la P direccional nul·la dels SPs direccional construits amb aposicions no inherentment direccionals s’incorpori a GO o be la P locativa del seu complement s’elevi a la preposicio nul·la; ( e ) els verbs de manera de moviment tenen un component MANERA adjuntat a GO/GET; ( f ) la incorporacio de P a GO/GET modificat amb MANERA es inadmissible (a causa d’una prohibicio d’adjuncio multiple a un mateix nucli; ( g ) aixi, doncs, en les estructures GO+MANERA, la P direccional nul·la es pot legitimar nomes si s’hi eleva la P locativa; ( h ) quan la P locativa s’eleva a la P direccional tenim l’ordre de mots posposicional en holandes, mentre que si no s’hi eleva tenim l’ordre preposicional.","PeriodicalId":43160,"journal":{"name":"Catalan Journal of Linguistics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2010-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71036558","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}
