Over the past few decades, the book series Linguistische Arbeiten Linguistic Studies], comprising over 500 volumes, has made a significant contribution to the development of linguistic theory both in Germany and internationally. The series will continue to deliver new impulses for research and maintain the central insight of linguistics that progress can only be made in acquiring new knowledge about human languages both synchronically and diachronically by closely combining empirical and theoretical analyses. To this end, we invite submission of high-quality linguistic studies...

TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS is a series of books that open new perspectives in our understanding of language. The series publishes state-of-the-art work on core areas of linguistics across theoretical frameworks as well as studies that provide new insights by building bridges to neighbouring fields such as neuroscience and cognitive science.

TRENDS IN LINGUISTICS considers itself a forum for cutting-edge research based on solid empirical data on language in its various manifestations, including sign languages. It regards linguistic variation in its synchronic and diachronic dimensions as...

Ein zentrales Problem der Linguistik besteht darin, da insbesondere grammatische Kategorien ausschlielich der Analyse und Beschreibung der >geschriebenengesprochene

In dem Buch wird ein grammatisches Beschreibungsinstrumentarium entwickelt, mit dem syntaktische Strukturen unabhangig von ihrer medialen Verfatheit analysiert werden konnen. Das ist das theoretische Fundament einer alltagssprachnahen und realistischen Grammatikforschung, ist die Basis fur eine pragmatische Syntax, deren Gegenstand die in Texten und Diskursen vorliegenden sprachlichen Strukturen und damit die Normen und...

Dieser Band zu Ehren von Klaus Baumgartners 65. Geburtstag versammelt 15 Beitrage zu aktuellen Problemen der (lexikalischen) Semantik: dem Zusammenhang zwischen Syntax und Semantik, zum Problem einer reprasentationalen versus einer dynamischen Bedeutungskonzeption sowie zur Frage der konzeptuellen Basis der Semantik. Der Gegenstand der Untersuchungen ist breit gefachert: von Prapositionen uber temporale Konjunktionen, Verben und ihrer Argumentstruktur bis hin zu textuellen Zusammenhangen.

Wandala is a hitherto undescribed Central Chadic language spoken in Northern Cameroon and Northeastern Nigeria. The Grammar of Wandala describes, in a non-aprioristic approach, phonology, morphology, syntax, and all functional domains grammaticalized in the language. The grammatical structure of Wandala is quite different from the structure of other Chadic languages described thus far in both the formal means and the functions that have been grammaticalized. The grammar provides proofs for the postulated hypotheses concerning forms and functions. The grammar is written in a style...

Jieun Kiaer puts forward an argument in this book that the grammar of a language directly underpins the processing of the language, in real time. This is a view that runs against the orthodoxy of linguistic theorizing for the last 50 years, which has insisted that languages have to be characterized in terms that make little or no reference to the dynamics of language use.

This orthodox view fails to fit languages in which the verb has to be at the end of the clause -- which encompasses more than half of the world's languages. Thus, as this book shows, these languages remain very...
