Because the Arabic dialects are similar in many ways, a study of their differences can help isolate precisely the range of permissible interlinguistic variation (i.e. the "parameters" of universal grammar). A number of papers in Section I focus on the contribution of dialect studies to a theory of cross dialectal and cross linguistic variation; others focus on individual dialects, thus providing data and analyses 410 0$aAmsterdam studies in the theory and history of linguistic science.$nSeries IV,$pCurrent issues in linguistic theory ;$v85. 606 $aArabic language$vCongresses 615 0$aArabic language 676 $a492.75 701 $aBroselow$b Ellen$01799707 701 $aEid$b Mushira$0173922 701 $aMcCarthy$b John$025354 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910965393003321 996 $aPerspectives on Arabic linguistics IV$94375152 997 $aUNINA
