Like most argument structure changes, the alternation is both productive and constrained: new forms may be derived, but not from all candidate verbs. This raises a learnability problem: how can children determine, in the absence of negative evidence, which verbs participate in the alternation? The Locative Alternation in German tries to answer this question by providing an in-depth analysis of the conditions that verbs must meet.Language acquisition & language disorders ;15.German languageLocative constructionsGerman languagePrepositionsGerman languageVerbGerman languageCaseGerman languageMorphologyGerman languageLocative constructions.German languagePrepositions.German languageVerb.German languageCase.German languageMorphology.435Brinkmann Ursula555457MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910812129903321The locative alternation in German3954386UNINA
