Synopsis

Against the background of the proliferation of the various subdisciplines of language acquisition research dating from the late 1980s, this volume aims to enhance the existing links between language acquisition and theoretical linguistics. It focuses on the acquisition of syntax and syntactic theory, specifically on Chomskyan Generative Grammar. Some of the topics covered in this series of papers are the optional infinitive stage in child English, early underspecification of functional categories, lexical learning, parameter setting, agreement, truncated structures, clitics, a minimalist perspective on acquisition and attrition, and merger theory.
