Intransitive Predication (Oxford Studies in Typology and Linguistic Theory) Book

Investigating cross-linguistic variation in the domains of all natural languages this work views this domain as a cognitive space the topography of which is the same for all languages. It brings together the research results in a universally applicable model which can be read as a 'flow-chart' for the encoding of intransitive predications.Read More

  • Product Description

    Stassen makes a major contribution to the study of language typology with Intransitive Predication. Basing his analysis on a sample of 410 languages, he presents a universally applicable model for defining the domain of intransitive predication in natural languages. Intransitive predicates are defined in terms of four domains: events (Sarah is walking), classes (Sarah is a secretary), properties (Sarah is tall), and locations (Sarah is in the garden).
