Scott -- References /Alan K. Scott -- Index /Alan K. Scott.In The Genitive Case in Dutch and German: A Study of Morphosyntactic Change in Codified Languages , Alan K. Scott offers an account of the tension that exists between morphosyntactic change and codification, focusing on the effect that codification has had on the genitive case and alternative constructions in both languages. On the basis of usage data from a wide variety of registers, from the 16th century to the present day, Alan K. Scott demonstrates that codification has preserved obsolescent morphological genitive constructions in Dutch and German while suppressing their potential replacements, and shows that, despite its association with norm-conformant language, the genitive is used to a surprisingly large extent in informal early modern Dutch and modern German sources.Brill's Studies in Historical Linguistics2.Dutch languageCaseGerman languageCaseDutch languageMorphosyntaxGerman languageMorphosyntaxElectronic books.Dutch languageCase.German languageCase.Dutch languageMorphosyntax.German languageMorphosyntax.410.384Scott Alan(Alan K.)904638MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453804903321The genitive case in Dutch and German2022974UNINA
