The LMH makes testable predictions for L2 acquisition based on the mapping between argument-structure and functional-structure. Empirical… read more

Learners can go a long way in making themselves understood by mapping conceptual arguments such as agent, event and patient straight onto canonical word order. However, in order to optimise communicative intentions they need to go beyond it. We will discuss such notions as canonical order,… read more
