Testing lexical specificity hypotheses in world Englishes
The present paper tests a series of hypotheses dealing with variation, across dialects of English, in the degree of lexical specificity of constructions. The study focuses on the null subject alternation, which is conceptualized here as consisting of two allostructions, the null and overt variants, of a more schematic constructeme. Five hypotheses put forward in the specialized literature are adapted to the null subject alternation and tested on …
Clause Initial Null Subjects in Web-based Written Language
Null subjects in English(es) are a phenomenon that has recently received much attention in the specialized literature. However, most studies are based on small datasets and samples of varieties due to the difficulty of extracting null subjects from corpora. The present paper is a first step towards the automatization of the data retrieval process of null subjects and analyzes a much larger sample of cases and varieties than previous research, nam…

Mark-up and Annotation in the Corpus of Historical English Law Reports (CHELAR)
Adding annotation and mark-up to linguistic corpora has become a standard practice in corpus \nbuilding over the past few decades as a way to facilitate data extraction and at the same time \nguarantee that new corpora are compatible with existing and future tools. The purpose of this \narticle is twofold. First, we provide an overview of the main forms of annotation and mark-up \navailable to the research community and how they have been applied…
Pronoun omission in high-contact varieties of English
This paper considers pronoun omission in different varieties of English. It argues that omitted pronouns simplify structures if their referents are accessible in discourse, which explains the greater frequency of this grammatical feature in high-contact varieties of English, spoken in speech communities with a history of high numbers of second-language users. A corpus study of two high-contact varieties, Indian English and Singapore English, and …
Syntactic complexity and language contact
The aim of the present paper is to test the claim that contact simplifies language (cf. Kusters, 2008) by comparing the domain of relative clause formation in British English, a L1 variety, and Indian English, a L2 variety. According to Hawkins (1999), the processing cost of relativizing a noun phrase increases down the Accessibility Hierarchy (Subject > Direct Object> Indirect Object > Oblique > Genitive> Object of Comparison) proposed by Keenan…
