Here and There: Cross-linguistic Studies on Deixis and Demonstration

Edited by Jürgen Weissenborn and Wolfgang Klein

The ways in which different languages link utterances to pragmatic factors such as speech time, speech place, and speech participants show a rich variation. This makes deixis a… read more

Recent literature in developmental psycholinguistics has emphasized the role of prosodic bootstrapping in discovering syntactic constituents and word order regularities in early grammar.1 One of the puzzles this theoretical paradigm leaves open is the “perception (or comprehension) prior to… read more
