Three tasks were given to the 62… read more | Article

Arteaga, Deborah and Julia Herschensohn. 2016. Old French possessives and ellipsis. Romance Linguistics 2013: Selected papers from the 43rd Linguistic Symposium on Romance Languages (LSRL), New York, 17-19 April, 2013, Tortora, Christina, Marcel den Dikken, Ignacio L.
