Verbal Agreement and the Grammar behind its 'Breakdown': Minimalist feature checking - Linguistische Arbeiten
Elly van Gelderen
The book series Linguistische Arbeiten (LA) publishes high-quality work in linguistics that addresses current issues in synchrony and diachrony, theoretically or empirically oriented.
Publisher Marketing: Rules of agreement, or concord, account for the special relationship between the verb and the subject that exists in most languages. In many traditional grammars, it is taken for granted that this agreement occurs & usually only the cases of 'lack of concord' are discussed. The book examines rules accounting for the agreement phenomena as well as account for the instance where agreement is 'deficient'.
