Lack of specialized passive morphology in IE: Evidence from GreekThe Parametric Comparison Method (PCM, Guardiano & Longobardi 2005, Longobardi & Guardiano 2009) is grounded on the assumption that syntactic parameters are more appropriate than other traits for use as comparanda for historical reconstruction, because they are able to provide unambiguous correspondences and objective measurements, thus guaranteeing wide-range applicability and quantitative exactness. This article discusses a set of experiments explicitly designed to evaluate the impact of parametric syntax in representing historical relatedness, and performed on a selection of 26 contemporaryBenjamins current topics ;Volume 75.Proto-Indo-European languageSyntaxGrammar, Comparative and generalSyntaxLanguage acquisitionProto-Indo-European languageSyntax.Grammar, Comparative and generalSyntax.Language acquisition.415Kulikov L.
