  • Morphological change as systemically motivated bricolage

    Open AccessÁgnes Kalivoda, Farrell Ackerman et al.ARTICLEMorphology2026Referencias: 38

    While many languages have voluntary desiderative constructions expressing the intention of an agent argument to engage in an activity or action, a few languages have dedicated impulsative constructions expressing an urge or feeling to engage in an activity or action. Hungarian has developed an impulsative construction by reanalyzing a series of individual verbal affixes associated with the morphosyntactic properties potential, conditional and agr…

  • Word-based morphology–syntax interdependencies

    Open AccessLeslie Lee, Farrell AckermanARTICLEJournal of Linguistics2015Referencias: 4

    In this article, we argue that insights concerning the word-based nature of morphology, especially the hypothesis that periphrastic expressions are cross-linguistically common exponents of lexical relations, permit a novel lexical constructional analysis of periphrastic predicates that preserves the restriction of morphosyntactic mapping operations, such as passive, to the lexicon. We do this in the context of the periphrastic Thai thuuk passive,…

  • Symmetrical objects in Moro

    Open AccessFarrell Ackerman, Robert Malouf et al.ARTICLEJournal of Linguistics2015Citada por: 2Referencias: 9

    This paper examines the syntactic and semantic behavior of object arguments in Moro, a Kordofanian language spoken in central Sudan. In particular, we focus on multiple object constructions (ditransitives, applicatives, and causatives) and show that these objects exhibit symmetrical syntactic behavior; e.g., any object can passivize or be realized as an object marker, and all can do so simultaneously. Moreover, we demonstrate that each object can…

    Charles J. Fillmore Farrell Ackerman, Paul Kay, and Mary Catherine O’Connor Charles J. (Chuck) Fillmore, 67th president of the Linguistic Society of America, died on February 13, 2014, at his home in San Francisco, California. Fillmore was one of the world’s preeminent linguists. His career spanned more than half a century, during which he contributed a reliably constant stream of original and influential ideas in many areas of linguistic researc…

  • Assessing “Dangerous Climate Change”

    Open AccessJeffrey E Hansen, James Hansen et al.ARTICLEPLoS ONE2013

    We assess climate impacts of global warming using ongoing observations and paleoclimate data. We use Earth's measured energy imbalance, paleoclimate data, and simple representations of the global carbon cycle and temperature to define emission reductions needed to stabilize climate and avoid potentially disastrous impacts on today's young people, future generations, and nature. A cumulative industrial-era limit of ∼500 GtC fossil fuel emissions a…

  • Morphological Organization

    Open AccessFarrell Ackerman, Robert MaloufARTICLELanguage2013Citada por: 28

    Crosslinguistically, inflectional morphology exhibits a spectacular range of complexity in both the structure of individual words and the organization of systems that words participate in. We distinguish two dimensions in the analysis of morphological complexity. enumerative complexity (E-complexity) reflects the number of morphosyntactic distinctions that languages make and the strategies employed to encode them, concerning either the internal c…

  • Parts and wholes

    Farrell Ackerman, James P Blevins et al.CHAPTERAnalogy in grammar2009

    Humans show an amazing ability to produce novel words based on previous experience. What analogical processes are at work in this process, and how do analogical generalizations emerge from complex morphological systems? This chapter addresses these questions with new quantitative measures. Words are construed as recombinant gestalts. The predictive value of particular words in relation to others is calculated in terms of measures of conditional e…

  • Limitations of integrated assessment models of climate change

    Open AccessFarrell Ackerman, Frank Ackerman et al.ARTICLEClimatic Change2009

    The integrated assessment models (IAMs) that economists use to analyze the expected costs and benefits of climate policies frequently suggest that the “optimal” policy is to go slowly and to do relatively little in the near term to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. We trace this finding to the contestable assumptions and limitations of IAMs. For example, they typically discount future impacts from climate change at relatively high rates. This prac…

  • Lexeme derivation and multi-word predicates in Hungarian

    Open AccessFarrell AckermanARTICLEActa Linguistica Hungarica2003

    This paper focuses on predicate formation operations which affect the value and determination of lexical properties associated with Hungarian phrasal periphrastic predicates and, hence, on lexeme-formation (Aronoff 1994). Recent work, following the word and paradigm morphological models of Robins (1959), Matthews (1972), among others, has argued that periphrasis or multi-word expression is often best viewed as a type of morphological exponence, i…
