Asymmetries in Binding; Bibliography; Index; CURRENT ISSUES IN LINGUISTIC THEORY N2 - The two related issues of word order, and subject-verb agreement have occupied center stage in the study of Arabic syntax since the time of Sibawayhi in the eighth century. This book is a contribution to both of these areas. It is grounded within the generative grammar framework in one of its most recent versions, namely Minimalism, as expounded in Chomsky (1995). In this volume, a detailed description is given of word order options in Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) and Palestinian Arabic (PA). It is shown that, perhaps surprisingly, the two varieties allow almost the same range of word orders. T UR - https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=253421 ER -
