Morphosyntactic expression in functional grammar

About this book

"This books reflects the growing interest within Functional Grammar for the further development of the syntactic and morphological components of the model. The papers in this volume discuss two recent developments, the Dynamic Expression Model for Functional Grammar and the conversion of this model into a Functional Discourse Grammar model, synopses of which are included. Further articles provide detailed analyses of a range of semantic and pragmatic categories and their morphosyntactic expression in a wide variety of languages. The articles in this book include data on some 60 different languages." "Morphosyntactic Expression in Functional Grammar is of interest to anyone working in the field of Functional Grammar or morphosyntax in general as well as to researchers specializing in descriptive linguistics."--Jacket.
