Informationen zum Autor Jerrold M. Sadock is Glen A. Lloyd Distinguished Service Professor, Emeritus in the Department of Linguistics at the University of Chicago. Klappentext A model of grammar using several independent, simultaneous modules, which allows each module to be simpler than the current theory. Zusammenfassung Jerrold Sadock develops his influential theory of grammar! formalizing several generative modules that independently characterize the levels of syntax! semantics! role structure! morphology and linear order. The modules are simple enough to be cast as phrase structure grammars and make descriptions of grammatical phenomena more explicit than other studies. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1.
