While particles have been claimed to be distributed optionally to the left (as LPrt) or right (as RPrt) of an associated DP in the linguistic literature, the dialectologically-oriented literature has shown for a long time that Norwegian particles are preferred as LPrt (indicated by a plus sign here): 'throw {+LPrt out} the dog {-RPrt out}'. While spatial particles can appear in both positions, non-spatial particles primarily appear to the left. A non-spatial LPrt construction triggers an atelic reading, and the RPrt counterpart identifies a result state. The book combines traditional dialectology with modern linguistic theories and includes much Norwegian data that has not been shed theoretical light on before: simplex and complex spatial and non-spatial constructions, phrasal particles, ground promotion, and unaccusatives. Several earlier theoretical accounts that have included an analysis of Norwegian particles, are reviewed in a separate chapter. Finally, a complex-predicate analysis is adopted for non-spatial particles, and a small clause analysis for spatial particles"--Provided by publisher.Studies in Germanic linguistics ;Volume 4.Norwegian languageParticlesNorwegian languageVerbNorwegian languageParticles.Norwegian languageVerb.439.8256Aa Leiv Ingeaut1600815MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910823968603321Norwegian verb particles3924126UNINA
