Interplay between morphology and syntax: A lexical analysis of inflection and cliticization in Spanish.

Nishida, Chiyo. January 1987 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to propose a lexical analysis of inflection and cliticization in Spanish within the framework of Categorial Grammar, and to show how morphology and syntax interplay with one another in this language. I postulate that inflectional suffixes and clitics are syntactic expressions in their own right; inflectional suffixes are the instantiation of the grammatical relation, subject, whereas certain clitics, i.e. DAT and ACC clitics, are of the object. In this regard, inflection and cliticization can be conceived as functions from one set of syntactic expressions into another. I assume that inflectional suffixes and clitics are stored in the lexicon assigned to categories which specify their syntactic (and semantic) properties. These elements are combined to form complex expressions by two kinds of operations: (1) Function/argument application, and (2) Functional Composition. Three lexical rules are proposed in order to account for the distribution of the morphological properties at issue: (1) Inflection, (2) Cliticization, and (3) Complex Verb Formation. These rules make an explicit statement of what syntactic processes take place as morphologically complex expressions are formed. One consequence of my analysis is the redefinition of nominals commonly referred to as "subject NP" and "object NP" (doubled by a clitic) as elements which mark a referential contrast. This way, the formal variation as to the presence or absence of these nominals in Spanish sentences has a coherent explanation. Two rules of nominal adjunction are proposed in order to account for "clitic doubling" and "subject doubling". These two rules apply under certain conditions. With a lexical treatment of inflection and cliticization proposed, all the word formation processes in the Spanish language are now relegated to one single component, the lexicon. Morphology in Spanish, thus, has a clearly delineated domain of its own as an integral part of the lexicon. Furthermore, inflection and cliticization are morphological processes which, at the same time, construct syntactically complex expressions. This direct interplay between morphology and syntax is what uniquely characterizes the so-called "pro-drop" languages, of which Spanish is one, and distinguishes them from the "non-pro-drop" languages.

The Attitude of Mexican-Americans Toward Their Texas Spanish

McDonald, Bobby Gene 08 1900 (has links)
"The purpose of this study is to examine the attitude of Mexican Americans toward their Texas Spanish in order to determine if present educational policies are successful in promoting high self-concepts for Mexican-American students..the conclusion of this thesis [is] that a sizable number of Mexican-Americans do not have a positive self-image as speakers of their native language. It is suggested that the rejection of Spanish dialects which are different and distinct from the school standard is a major factor in causing a low self-image on the part of the speaker of a non-standard dialect."-- leaves 1,3.

Att leva som ett tvåspråkigt barn : En studie om tvåspråkighet med speciellt fokus på spansktalande barn i Sverige

Simoncini, Mirna January 2005 (has links)
<p>Syftet med det här examensarbetet är att komma lite närmare tvåspråkighetens värld och att få en djupare kunskap om detta fascinerande universum. Att lära känna de förhållanden och samspel som skapas mellan individer i det flerspråkiga samhället har blivit allt mer aktuellt och angeläget och därför valde jag det här temat. Forskningsfrågor i detta arbete fokuseras på tvåspråkig inlärning och uppfostran och hur det påverkar individens identitet samt vilka fördelar respektive nackdelar tvåspråkighet innebär. Arbetet är uppbyggt i två delar. Den första baseras på litteratur studier som beskriver tvåspråkighet på ett generellt sätt och den andra på en empirisk studie där jag fokuserar på några av de tvåspråkiga spansktalande barn som bor i Sverige. Som forskningsmetod i den empiriska delen har jag intervjuat 5 tvåspråkiga spansktalande barn mellan 10 och 16 år och deras familjer. Både resultaten från litteraturen och den empiriska studien visade att tvåspråkighet är en tillgång snarare än ett hinder och det också är något helt normalt i majoriteten av världens länder. Människan har alltså kapacitet att lära sig och kommunicera på mer än ett språk och att växla mellan olika språk behöver inte betyda att personen har en fattig vokabulär, det kan vara ett tecken på en välutvecklad språkförmåga. Ett språk är en stor del av en människas identitet och kultur, de människor som har flera språk hittar ofta en jämvikt mellan två olika kulturer och kan se på världen med ett vidare perspektiv. Tvåspråkiga personer är ofta mer öppna och toleranta för meningsskiljaktigheter.</p>
