Full textThis thesis presents a study of the syntax and typology of relative clauses in colloquial Armenian. It proposes a syntactic analysis and classification of the relativization strategies available in Armenian within the framework of existing syntactic theoretical and typological proposals concerning relative clauses, and to identify the decisive factors associated with the distribution of these different strategies. As each of the available strategies is paralleled in other languages of the area, it is possible that language contact will have an impact on the choice of strategy. There is also evidence that the role of the relativized element in the relative clause is relevant for the choice of strategy; in particular, evidence presented in previous studies of Armenian suggests that the distribution of participial RCs may violate the Relativization Accessibility Hierarchy if this is envisaged as operating directly in terms of syntactic grammatical relations.The study is mainly based on data from sound recordings of native speaker consultants from various areas of Armenia, both spontaneous speech and responses to stimuli designed to elicit relative clauses with particular properties that have been proposed to affect the choice of relativization strategy. The relative clauses are entered into a database with filters for relevant features, which contains approximately 2000 examples. The results show that accessibility to relativization is determined by semantic (affectedness) and pragmatic (topicality) role prominence, and by frequent role-reference association patterns, rather than directly by syntactic grammatical relations. This provides a coherent explanation of the apparent Accessibility Hierarchy violations found in Armenian, as well as other phenomena that have proved problematic for syntactic structure-based interpretations of accessibility to relativization

Full textIn this thesis I study in depth the split intransitivity in the Arawak family of languages of South America. The grammatical analysis of the split intransitivity phenomenon is based on both their semantico-pragmatical motivations and their morphosyntactical realizations according to grammatical categories, valence changes and TAM. Besides, I also take into account constructions involving other types such as nominalized verbs and differential marking.This study not only reveals the existence of a rich diversity of split intransitivity patterns within this family, but it also proposes paths to understand the diachrony of such patterns, involving shifts from ergative alignment to accusative alignment, for which the effects of language contact may have played an important role. In this connection, the study sheds light onto the ways split intransitivity has implication for alignment-type and it is thus of interest for language typology

Full textThe present study related to the subject inversion in French relative clauses is based on more than five hundred examples found in André Gide’s novels. The factors determining the position of the subject in these clauses are studied first. Due to a certain similarity of some of their syntactic properties, several types of relative clauses are covered in this research: adnominal and nominal relative clauses cleft sentences and embedded relative clauses. In the second part, this study is devoted to the position of the inverted subject. Found in several positions. This subject has certain mobility in the sentence. Our research is therefore, limited to two questions. Which are necessary and useful for those who wish to understand this language mechanism and for those who intend to research other questions. Apart from syntactic analysis, we take functional sentence analysis and semantic or even, when necessary, stylistic aspects into consideration in this work

Full textDenna uppsats behandlar språk i Hindukush i norra Afghanistan och Pakistan, där sammanlagt ca 50 språk talas. Ämnet för studien är kasussystem och kasusmarkeringssystem vid substantiv ur ett arealtypologiskt perspektiv, vilket undersöks utifrån grammatikor i ett representativt urval av språken. De grammatiska relationerna mellan S, A och P och de kasus som markerar dessa undersöks. Belagda kasusmarkeringssystem är ackusativ- och ergativsystem samt kluvet system. Systemen uppvisar en distinkt geografisk distribution, vilket antyder att kasusmarkeringssystemen är ett arealtypologiskt drag. Vidare pekar resultaten på ett kluvet system baserat på klyvning i tempus-aspekt som det dominerande kasusmarkeringssystemet i Hindukush. De flesta av språken använder ett ackusativt kasusmarkeringssystem i imperfektiva, och ett ergativt kasusmarke-ringssystem i perfektiva tempus-aspekt. En jämförelse med ett globalt sampel (WALS) är bara till viss del möjlig, eftersom studien i WALS använder fler kategorier än ackusativa, ergativa och kluvna system, men den här studien bekräftar resultaten i de kategorier som kan jämföras. Ett dominerande mönster för kärnkasussynkretism kan observeras, med sammanfall av nominativ plural och oblik i båda numerus.

Michel, Lucy. "La relation entre genre grammatical et dénomination de la personne en langue française : approches sémantiques." Thesis, Dijon, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016DIJOL027/document.
Full textThis research was initiated with the idea of a semantic and referential splitting of grammatical gender within the French language between nouns denoting inanimates or non-anthropomorphic animates, and nouns denoting human or anthropomorphic animates. This splitting inevitably leads to the traditional question of the arbitrary or motivated nature of grammatical gender. The fact that this study focuses only on nouns denoting human animates, and more specifically on person denominations, enables to surpass this question and analyze more carefully the difficulties that arise from the idea of a link between grammatical gender and sexual bipartition. My work, nourished both by denomination theories and material and queer theories on language, is thus centered on proposing a stereotype-based semantic analysis of grammatical gender. This analysis opposes the idea of a structural hierarchy between masculine and feminine grammatical genders, and enables to understand some of the phenomena that are usually not considered as linguistic, but rejected as ideological or political. This hypothesis is thus born of a discussion of categorization theories, and of the phenomenological and linguistic difficulties that they present. Finally, one of the goals of this work is to be appliable : I will thus propose a lexicographic model of the stereotype-based hypothesis

Full textEight native speakers of arabic from the near east, learners of french as a second language, are subjected to a formal task in the target language. The present study aims at facing these learners with the principal difficulties in french which are generally met by arabic native speakers. In the framework of the present study, the learners complete groups of sentences (contextualised or not) with grammatical items relative to four grammatical categories in french : prepositions, articles, personal pronouns, and verbal tenses. In addition, the eight learners are requested to formulate metalinguistic commentaries justifying their own choices of grammatical items. The analysis of these commentaries, inspite of the fact that some of them are not reliable, could shed light on the learning strategies followed by these students during the evolution of their interlanguage. Further, this analysis allows us to see what they have retained from the target system. We may underline the deficiencies in teaching methods to which they were exposed. On the basis of these points, they may be an improvement in pedagogic materials intended for native speakers of arabic learning french

Some study found some common ESL (English as a Second Language) learners English Writing Error: improper use of the word, the verb form is not correct, the sentence lack of subject and verb tense errors. These errors are mainly due to: lack of vocabulary, grammar concept is not clear, the mother-tongue interference. In order to improve the ESL writing, we hope that the information from the grammatical relation to provide assistance. At present, the studies of grammatical relation mostly emphasize the word consisting of a single grammatical relation. However, words in the sentence may also have more than one grammatical relation. In our study, we first develop grammatical relation pattern recognition system. From the sentence using the system provides users with the grammatical relation, in order to understand the availability of the corresponding words. The corresponding words can help learners make appropriate use of this keyword. In addition the design of the user interface provides querying grammatical relation. This work makes use of grammatical relation and collocation in order to provide users with the assistance of English writing. And look for patterns of practice, we have proposed association rules and LSA (Latent Semantic Analysis) to implement.
