The new book series of Institut fur Deutsche Sprache (Institute of German Language, IDS) offers a platform for comparative research on chosen aspects of German linguistics, especially with regard to their typological relevance. It includes both monographs and edited volumes, in English and in German, on topics such as grammar (phonology, graphemics, morphology, syntax, semantics), lexis, pragmatics, second-language acquisition, multilingualism and language contact. All publications are innovative contributions to the description of the linguistic phenomena in question, but also to the...

Das ungeklarte Verhaltnis zwischen Wortbildung und Lexikon ist Gegenstand einer umfassenden und lang andauernden Diskussion in der morphologischen bzw. grammatiktheoretischen Literatur. Gleiches gilt auch fur die Frage nach der Abgrenzung zwischen Morphologie und Syntax. Eine zentrale Rolle innerhalb dieser Debatten spielen nominale Komposita. Der Band untersucht solche Komposita und korrespondierende phrasale bzw. phraseologische Einheiten und diskutiert sie in Hinblick auf das Verhaltnis von Wortbildung, Syntax und Lexikon. Konkreter Untersuchungsgegenstand sind Adjektiv-Nomen-Komposita...

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...

The book series Beihefte zur Zeitschrift fur romanische Philologie, founded by Gustav Grober in 1905, is among the most renowned publications in Romance Studies. It covers the entire field of Romance linguistics, including the national languages as well as the lesser studied Romance languages.

The editors welcome submissions of high-quality monographs and collected volumes on all areas of linguistic research, on medieval literature and on textual criticism. The publication languages of the series are French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and Romanian as well as German and...

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...

For the purposes of this volume, originally published in 1954, two southern zones of Bantu have been included - south of the Zambesi and east of the Kalahari. The book discusses the phonetic and morphological characteristics of these 2 zones and a classification of the groups, clusters and dialects is provided. For comparative purposes detailed information on some striking dialectical forms is given in the appendices.

This book is a descriptive grammar of Aguaruna, known to its speakers as Iinia Chicham, a Jivaroan language spoken by some 55,000 people in the northwest Peruvian Amazon. Aguaruna is typologically and historically significant because of its location in the eastern foothills of the Andes, right between the Andean and Amazonian linguistic areas. Some typologically unusual syntactic phenomena, for example in the areas of grammatical relations and case marking, make this description relevant beyond the areal context. This is the first full grammar of a Jivaroan language, covering phonology,...

Unter Modalitat sind verschiedene Kategorien zusammengefasst: Modalverben, Modalpartikel, Vergewisserungsfragen. Die Gemeinsamkeit der grundmodalen und epistemischen sowie evidentialen Lesarten von Modalverben einerseits und Modalpartikeln andererseits ist das Thema dieses Bandes. Im Zentrum steht die Frage, welche Gewissheitsgrade fur den Horer diese Wortarten vermitteln, wieweit dabei Verhandlungsstrategien vom Sprecher gegenuber dem Horer eingesetzt werden und wieso solche Wortarten nicht in allen Sprachen in gleicher Weise lexikalisch oder grammatisch vertreten sind. Da Modalitat im...
