The empirical section examines intonational phrasing across sentence forms, including SVO structures with either nominal or sentential objects and structures involving clitic left- and right-dislocations. The results show variation in phrasing that depends on syntactic factors and non-syntactic factors such as topic-hood and prosodic binarity. The theoretical section uses Stochastic Optimality Theory to model the variation and frequency distributions associated with the observed prosodic patterns. Various syntactic and non-syntactic factors are represented by alignment constraints, which play a major role in Catalan, and by constraints that limit size and those that limit the overall amount of prosodic structure. This study represents a combined approach to prosody and syntax and is of particular relevance for theoretical and empirical linguists interested in the relationship between these domains both in Catalan and other languages. 410 0$aLinguistik aktuell ;$vBd. 168. 606 $aCatalan language$xSentences 606 $aCatalan language$xSyntax 606 $aCatalan language$xGrammar 615 0$aCatalan language$xSentences. 615 0$aCatalan language$xSyntax. 615 0$aCatalan language$xGrammar. 676 $a449/.95 700 $aFeldhausen$b Ingo$01101210 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910826662403321 996 $aSentential form and prosodic structure of Catalan$94083051 997 $aUNINA
