The works offered in this volume derive specifically from comparative studies of Germanic; at the same time they all bear directly on long-standing problems in syntactic theory and universal grammar. The contributions include novel theoretical and empirical approaches to infinitives, the syntax and acquisition of Verb Second, the structure and interpretation of present tense, the syntax and semantics of reflexives, the relationship between expletive syntax and the EPP, the syntax of possession, and the DP-internal syntax of pronouns. Some contributions present the results of experimental research which provide an entirely fresh perspective on previously unchallenged claims. 410 0$aLinguistik aktuell ;$vBd. 78. 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xFunction words 606 $aFunctionalism (Linguistics) 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xGrammatical categories 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xFunction words. 615 0$aFunctionalism (Linguistics) 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xGrammatical categories. 676 $a415 701 $aDikken$b Marcel den$f1965-$0221578 701 $aTortora$b Christina$0175878 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816973803321 996 $aThe function of function words and functional categories$93975390 997 $aUNINA
