New Information Structuring Processes and Morphosyntactic Change --Name index --Language indexInformation structure and the organization of oral texts have been rarely studied crosslinguistically. This book contains studies of the grammatical organization of information in languages from different areas (e.g. Amazonian, Finno-Ugric, South-Asian) from a variety of theoretical angles. It will be a valuable resource for researchers investigating the interaction of morphosyntax and discourse in familiar and less familiar languages.Trends in linguistics.Studies and monographs ;Volume 283.Grammar, Comparative and generalTopic and commentCross-cultural studiesPhrase structure grammarCross-cultural studiesConversation analysisCross-cultural studiesSpeech acts (Linguistics)Cross-cultural studiesFocus (Linguistics)Cross-cultural studiesPsycholinguisticsCross-cultural studiesInformation Structure, Typology, Grammatical Theory, Non-Indo-European Languages.Grammar, Comparative and generalTopic and commentPhrase structure grammarConversation analysisSpeech acts (Linguistics)Focus (Linguistics)Psycholinguistics415ER 960rvkFernandez M.
