Knowledge of English verb phrase ellipsis by speakers of Arabic and Chinese
English verb phrase ellipsis (VPE) involves both syntactic and discourse information. The present study investigates knowledge of these properties by L1 speakers of Arabic and Mandarin Chinese. Three issues are addressed. Can the participants acquire syntactic properties of VPE that differ from their L1s and are under-determined by positive evidence? Can they acquire all of the syntactic properties of VPE that differ from their L1s? Can they succ…

Interpretation of English multiple wh-questions by Japanese speakers
In recent work by Tsimpli (2003) and Tsimpli and Dimitrakopoulou (to appear) an explicit claim is made about the nature of end-state grammars in older second language (L2) learners: uninterpretable syntactic features that have not been selected during first language (L1) acquisition will not be available for L2 grammar construction. Interpretable syntactic features, on the other hand, remain available (as well as the computational procedures and …
The Rules for the Gender of French Nouns
By Saul H. Rosenthal. Tucson, Hats Off Books, 2004. 115 pp. Pb $11.95. The subtitle of the book is arresting: will it really offer a plausible and principled account of why arms are masculine and legs feminine? No, it won't, of course, and nor could it. Grammatical gender of the French kind (and grammatical gender in any known language for that matter) is just a morphological device for partitioning nouns into groups. These groups often display f…
The theoretical significance of Universal Grammar in second language acquisition
The evidence that native language acquisition is possible only because children are born with an innately-determined language faculty - Universal Grammar - is considerable. The evidence that the same innate ability is involved in second language acquisition (SLA) by older learners is superficially less clear. There are differences both in the context of acquisition and the nature of development. One recent approach suggests that only ‘poverty of …
The partial availability of Universal Grammar in second language acquisition
A number of studies in the research literature have proposed that Universal Grammar (UG) is partially available to adult second language learners. Attempts to provide a syntactic characterization of that partial availability have only recently begun to appear, however. In this article we will argue that speakers of Chinese (a language without wh-operator movement in overt syntax) learning second language English (a language with wh-operator movem…
The Development of Fluency in Advanced Learners of French
In this article, it will be argued that the proceduralization of linguistic knowledge is the most important factor in the development of fluency in advanced second language learners Levelt's (1989) model of language production is used to provide the descriptive base for the sub-processes of language production This posits the existence of a conceplualizer, a formulator, and an articulator, each of which contains procedural knowledge Levelt's mode…
Universal Grammar and the acquisition of French verb movement by native speakers of English
White (1989) has shown that L1 English-speaking learners of L2 French appear to be more successful in acquiring the postverbal location of French manner and frequency adverbs than L1 French-speaking learners of L2 English are in acquiring the preverbal location of English manner and frequency adverbs. One implication of recent work by Pollock (1989) on the structure of English and French clauses is, however, that the task of acquiring the placeme…

On ‘Generating indirect objects in English’
I. In a recent article in this journal, Allerton (1978) calls into question the status of a transformational rule - usually called Dative Movement - which relates sentences like: (1) (a) Jim gave a present to Margaret. (b) Jim bought a drink for Margaret. to sentences where the prepositions to/for are not present, and where Margaret immediately follows the verb: (2) (a) Jim gave Margaret a present. (b) Jim bought Margaret a drink. His argument is…
Towards an account of the possessive constructions
1. Efforts to limit the power of transformations, and thereby reduce the class of possible grammars, have been concentrated in two areas: the conditions which restrict the application of the transformational rules, and the examination of the consequences of placing the burden of description on the non-transformational components of the grammar. Recent work on the non-transformational components has led to some interesting conclusions about how th…
