The development of language
The Licensing of Null Arguments in American Sign Language
The distribution of null arguments across languages has been accounted for in terms of two distinct strategies: licensing by agreement and licensing by topic. Lillo-Martin (1986, 1991) claims that American Sign Language (ASL) exploits both strategies for licensing null arguments, depending on the morphological characteristics of the verb. Here we show that this is incorrect. Once the nonmanual correlates of agreement features (comparable to the n…
The rightward analysis of wh-movement in ASL
Neidle, Kegl, Bahan, Aarons, & MacLaughlin 1997 argues that rightward WH-movement in ASL constitutes a counterexample to claims by Kayne (1994) that all phrasal projections exhibit specifier-head-complement order and that syntactic movement is leftward. Petronio & Lillo-Martin 1997, although not adopting Kayne's antisymmetry framework, offers a critique of our analysis and a proposal involving leftward WH-movement. Here, we argue that Petronio an…
Language acquisition and the Subset Principle
L'A. examine les affirmations faites autour du role joue par le Principe de Sous-ensemble dans l'acquisition du langage afin d'evaluer l'hypothese de White concernant son inutilite pour les apprenants d'une seconde langue. Il explique que le probleme de l'apprentissage du sous-ensemble ne semble pas concerner les parametres de la Grammaire Universelle et montre que l'hypothese selon laquelle le Principe du Sous-ensemble est operationnel dans l'ac…
