Verb Clusters: A study of Hungarian, German and Dutch
Edited by Katalin É. Kiss and Henk van Riemsdijk
Many languages have constructions in which verbs cluster. But few languages have verb clusters as rich and complex as Continental West Germanic and Hungarian. Furthermore the precise ordering properties and the variation in the cluster patterns are remarkably similar in Hungarian and Germanic. This… read more[Linguistik Aktuell/Linguistics Today, 69] 2004. vi, 514 pp.
Materials on Left Dislocation
Edited by Elena Anagnostopoulou, Henk van Riemsdijk and Frans Zwarts
Materials on Left Dislocation consists of two parts. Part I contains a selection of the main texts on which our present understanding of the Left Dislocation construction is based. For various reasons most of these texts had never been published, or are published in obsolete places. These articles,… read more[Linguistik Aktuell/Linguistics Today, 14] 1997. viii, 349 pp.
Rightward Movement
Edited by Dorothee Beermann, David LeBlanc and Henk van Riemsdijk
Symmetries and asymmetries have always played an important role in linguistic theorizing. From the early works on potentially universal properties of transformational processes, differences between rightward and leftward movement processes were noted and constituted a challenge to theories of… read more[Linguistik Aktuell/Linguistics Today, 17] 1997. vi, 410 pp.

2019 Chapter 3. Elements of syntax: Repulsion and attraction Interfaces in Grammar, Hu, Jianhua and Haihua Pan (eds.), pp. 25–48 | Chapter
This contribution presents a somewhat autobiographical overview of the author’s struggle in coming to grips with the undeniable central role that the forces of attraction and repulsion play in the grammar of natural languages. It is therefore a tale of good and bad ideas, where the bad ideas… read more
2012 Chapter 2. The absent, the silent, and the audible: Some thoughts on the morphology of silent verbs Of Grammar, Words, and Verses: In honor of Carlos Piera, Torrego, Esther (ed.), pp. 19–39 | Article
This chapter pursues the issue of phonetically silent lexical items (cf. Van Riemsdijk 2002). Two more empirical domains are examined, and in both cases I tentatively conclude that a silent verb is involved. The first of these concerns the copula/auxiliary be when combined with a directional PP in… read more

We examine spatial semantics, take notions such as location and change of location to be basic, and address the question of whether these notions are reflected in syntax and morphology. We state that there are indeed languages in which there is a direct grammatical correlate of location and path.… read more
