Does our brain differentiate among the different types of grammatical and conceptual information that each sentence we read and listen to contains? Are these mechanisms sensitive to cross-linguistic similarities and differences? To answer these questions, this book provides a comprehensive overview of existing experimental and theoretical studies on language processing. Special emphasis is given here to the analysis of basic building blocks of language - features - and to an approach that relies on the fruitful interaction among theoretical linguistics, psycholinguistics and neuroscience.Distinctive features (Linguistics)Distinctive features (Linguistics)414Mancini Simona1978-1706697MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910807018003321Features and processing in agreement4094329UNINA
