2024 Policy 10. 2014 Linguistics in the Netherlands 2024, Bril, Marco and Kristel Doreleijers (eds.), pp. 227–243 | Article
This paper argues that the word for ONE in Russian and Dutch is not a cardinal numeral but a classifier with an unvalued [Unit:_] feature. The value of this feature, e.g., [person], [gender], [place] is provided by the syntactic environment of ONE. Cardinal numerals ≥ TWO are phrasal quantifiers… read more
The syntax of progressive and ingressive aanhet -constructions in Dutch Linguistics in the Netherlands 2022, Vogels, Jorrig and Sterre Leufkens (eds.), pp. 2–20 | Article
2022 This paper presents a novel syntactic analysis of the much-debated Dutch aanhet-construction, e.g. Pieter is aan het opruimen ‘lit. Peter is on the cleanup: Peter is cleaning up’. We show that the construction’s syntactic behavior varies with the matrix verb: progressive zijn ‘be’ versus… read more
A filter for syntactically incomparable parallel sentences Linguistics in the Netherlands 2019, Berns, Janine and Elena Tribushinina (eds.), pp. 147–161 | Article
2019 Massive automatic comparison of languages in parallel corpora will greatly speed up and enhance comparative syntactic research. Automatically extracting and mining syntactic differences from parallel corpora requires a pre-processing step that filters out sentence pairs that cannot be compared… read more
Merging verb cluster variation Romance Parsed Corpora, Tortora, Christina, Beatrice Santorini and Frances Blanchette (eds.), pp. 144–196 | To be specified
2018 In this paper we argue that verb clusters in Dutch varieties are merged and linearized in fully ascending (1-2-3) or fully descending (3-2-1) orders. We argue that verb clusters that deviate from these orders involve non-verbal material: adjectival participles, or nominal infinitives. As a… read more
Where is syntactic variation? Language Variation - European Perspectives IV: Selected papers from the Sixth International Conference on Language Variation in Europe (ICLaVE 6), Freiburg, June 2011, Auer, Peter, Javier Caro Reina and Göz Kaufmann (eds.), pp. 1–26 | Article
2013 This paper discusses the consequences of some major recent developments in syntactic variation research: (i) the shift from a macro-comparative to a micro-comparative approach; (ii) the use of dialectological, sociolinguistic and theoretical methods to collect dialect syntax data; (iii) the… read more
Perfect doubling Linguistic Variation 11:1, pp. 35–75 | Article
2011 The focus of this paper is the syntax of the so-called perfect doubling construction as it occurs in dialects of Dutch, namely cases of compound tenses featuring an additional, participial have (or be). We examine the properties of the construction on the basis of recent fieldwork research, and… read more
Focus particle doubling Structure Preserved: Studies in syntax for Jan Koster, Zwart, Jan-Wouter and Mark de Vries (eds.), pp. 21–30 | Article
2010 On the periphery of imperative and declarative clauses in Dutch and German Imperative Clauses in Generative Grammar: Studies in honour of Frits Beukema, Wurff, Wim van der (ed.), pp. 95–112 | Article
2007 In German imperatives, topics and Wh -elements can optionally precede the finite verb, whereas in Dutch imperatives only left-dislocated constituents can. This paper argues that this contrast derives from a minimal morphosyntactic difference between Dutch and German. In Dutch, a null imperative… read more
