| Description: |
Containing illuminating discussions of Differential Subject Marking (DSM) from languages all over the world, this book shows that DSM is often the result of interactions between conflicting constraints on language use. |
| Synopsis: |
Not all sentences encode their subjects in the same way. Some languages overtly mark some subjects depending on certain features of the subject argument or the sentence in which the subject figures. This is known as Differential Subject Marking (DSM). Containing illuminating discussions of DSM from languages all over the world, this book shows that DSM is often the result of interactions between conflicting constraints on language use. |
