Thus, some chapters rely on large diachronic corpora and provide new qualitative insight on the evolution of TAM systems through quantitative methods, while others carry out a collostructional analysis of past-tensed verbs using inferential statistics to explore the lexical grammar of verbs. A common goal is to uncover semantic regularities and variation in the TAM systems of the languages under study by taking a close look at context. Such a fine-grained approach contributes to our understanding of the TAM systems from a typological perspective. The focus on well-known Indo-European languages (e.g. French, German, English, Spanish), but also on less commonly studied languages (e.g. Hungarian, Estonian, Avar, Andi, Tagalog) provides a valuable cross-linguistic perspective"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aStudies in language companion series ;$vVolume 197.$x0165-7763 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xTense 606 $aModality (Linguistics) 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xAspect 606 $aEvidentials (Linguistics) 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xTense. 615 0$aModality (Linguistics) 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xAspect. 615 0$aEvidentials (Linguistics) 676 $a415/.6 702 $aAyoun$b Dalila$f1963- 702 $aCelle$b Agne?s 702 $aLansari$b Laure 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816292903321 996 $aTense, aspect, modality, and evidentiality$94060395 997 $aUNINA
