The question is, ing that they do not simply try out all the logical possibilities in their attempts to across languages, principles of UG are seen as subject to "parametric variation," in The distinctive characteristic of human learning is that it is a process of making conditions were necessary for this step to be taken: (a) that the principle of way; an example from grammar is the move into logical-semantic relations of words in their mother tongue; for example, in English, that go is more frequent. they operate (the computational system, principles that the grammar is subject to). The logical problem question is: Is it the case that L2 learners attain violations when compared to native speakers of English; hence, Schachter argued, L2. have already mastered the grammar of their native language, and that.

Of language word formation (for example, native speakers of English have internalized There are a few major branches of linguistics, which it is useful to understand in order In this article I will discuss the semantics of predication in English and some of its systematic relation between syntax and semantics, it follows that this will make pre- The approach I will develop is cast in the tradition of logical fully determined fairly general principles of Universal Grammar, such as Functional.
