She shows how changes in discourse, lexicon, semantics, pragmatics, and sound interact with changes in morphosyntax, and considers the interface between the internal and external factors of change. She reveals how rates and speed of change in morphosyntax can be used to explore the degree to which grammar is innate or learned. Her book will be of central interest and value to. students of linguistic change, at graduate level and above. - ;This book presents a critical comparison of the two lOxford surveys in syntax and morphology.Grammar, Comparative and generalMorphosyntaxLinguistic changeGrammar, Comparative and generalGrammaticalizationGenerative grammarGrammar, Comparative and generalMorphosyntax.Linguistic change.Grammar, Comparative and generalGrammaticalization.Generative grammar.415/.9Fischer Olga164714MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910784731503321Morphosyntactic change1137049UNINA
