The study analyzes professionally elicited data with regard to nonmanual features expressed by articulators such as the body, head, and face, and accounts for the results within existing theoretical models. The analyses contribute to recent debates about information structure and the syntax-prosody interface. Thus, this book is of special interest to bot Open Access In English Includes bibliographical references (pages 369-396) and index Results: Only, also, even in DGS, NGT, and ISL Print version record |
