Más naturales de lo que esperábamos
This article investigates for the first time a subgroup of Basque comparatives that show variation in their standard of comparison, both from a theoretical and experimental perspective. Based on data from descriptive and prescriptive grammars, and on the results collected through a controlled experiment carried out among Basque speakers, an exhaustive examination of comparatives with an inflected verb and the complementizer -(e)n in the standard …
Agreement and ellipsis
The interest in such diverse topics such as agreement and ellipsis, and their interaction with several components of the language system (syntax, pragmatics, phonology...) has increased in the last decades, as new approaches emerge to enable more precise analyses of the mechanisms underlying agreement relations and elliptical constructions. This special issue gathers a selection of six papers from the 32nd Colloquium on Generative Grammar and fro…
Is There a Woman in Los Candidatos? Gender Perception with Masculine "Generics" and Gender-Fair Language Strategies in Spanish
This study examines how several gender-encoding strategies in Spanish and social factors influence gender perception, reinforcing or mitigating a sexist male bias. Using an experimental design, we tested four linguistic conditions in a job recruitment context: masculine forms (theoretically generic), gender-splits, epicenes, and non-binary neomorpheme "-e". After reading a profile in one of these conditions, 837 participants (52% women) selected …
Phrasal subcomparatives
By analyzing an understudied type of comparative, namely, subcomparatives with surface-phrasal standards of comparison, this article offers an answer to three long-debated questions regarding the internal structure and semantic composition of comparative constructions in opposition to traditional assumptions and reductionist analyses. First I offer syntactic tests evidencing the non-clausal status of the standard in these subcomparatives in Basqu…
