This paper gives an overview of the results from three data collection sessions that took place in Norway 2018, which specifically targeted placement subjects, objects and particles main clauses. The reveal a fairly high amount variation relative linear order phrasal subjects negation, verb particles, while pronouns show little or no variation. We view these wider context within North Germanic languages, furthermore explicitly describe structure collected data, how to access it online Nordic...
In this article, we present the Nordic Word Order Database (NWD), with a focus on rationale behind it, methods used in data elicitation, analysis and empirical scope of database. NWD is an online database user-friendly search interface, hosted by The Text Laboratory at University Oslo, launched April 2019 (https://tekstlab.uio.no/nwd). It contains elicited production from speakers all North Germanic languages, including several different dialects. So far, 7 fieldtrips have been conducted,...
The present study examines grammatical gender knowledge in offline production (gender marking on indefinite articles) and online processing (visual world paradigm) adult second language (L2) learners of Norwegian with three different first languages (L1s): Greek, Russian, Turkish. In particular, it investigates the role following factors: (1) presence vs. absence L1 (Norwegian, Greek Russian have gender, whereas Turkish does not), (2) lexical congruency, (3) structural similarity between L2...
This paper gives an overview of the Danish data on argument placement in Nordic Word Order Database (NWD, Lundquist et al. 2019). The were collected from 28 speakers Copenhagen and Fredriksværk 2018. experimental task elicited subject object relative to adverbs particles (i.e., shift, shift particle shift), as well objects (long shift). results confirm that there is considerably less variability than other North Germanic languages.
Particle verbs in Norwegian are often realized as one maximal prosodic word with main stress either on the verb or particle, but sometimes and particle project their own words. This article contains a analysis of Nordic Dialect Corpus (Johannessen et al. 2009) from three dialect areas: Finnmark, Trøndelag Buskerud. In all areas there is variation between at least four different accent realizations. A verb, so-called compound accent, most common realization material, this also restricted...
One significant contribution of generative linguistics has been to our understanding 'movement,' which occurs when a word is linearized in position different from where it interpreted. Even though movement often considered syntactic phenomenon, some cases seem best analyzed prosodically, such as pronoun post-posing Irish (Bennett, Elfner, & McClosky 2016). We explore prosodically driven Norwegian, known for having pronominal object shift (OS). show that OS can be explained by Match...
In this paper, we investigate a prosodic-phonetic feature in child-directed speech within dynamic, complex, interactive theoretical framework. We focus on vocalic intrusions, commonly occurring Norwegian word initial consonant clusters. analysed from nine Norwegian-speaking mothers to their children, aged 2;6, 4, and 6 years, compared the incidence duration of intrusions clusters these data with those adult-directed child speech. When viewed overall, intrusion was found be similar child-...
