Linear order and its place in grammar
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 26 (6):693-694 (2003)
| Abstract | This commentary discusses the division of labor between syntax and phonology, starting with the parallel model of grammar developed by Jackendoff. It is proposed that linear, left-to-right order of linguistic items is not represented in syntax, but in phonology. Syntax concerns the abstract relations of categories alone. All components of grammar contribute to linear order, by means of the interface rules. | |||||||||
