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. 410 0$aLanguage acquisition & language disorders ;$v15. 606 $aGerman language$xLocative constructions 606 $aGerman language$xPrepositions 606 $aGerman language$xVerb 606 $aGerman language$xCase 606 $aGerman language$xMorphology 615 0$aGerman language$xLocative constructions. 615 0$aGerman language$xPrepositions. 615 0$aGerman language$xVerb. 615 0$aGerman language$xCase. 615 0$aGerman language$xMorphology. 676 $a435 700 $aBrinkmann$b Ursula$0555457 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812129903321 996 $aThe locative alternation in German$93954386 997 $aUNINA
