Viac o knihe

The study introduces a novel category of copular sentences called inverse copular sentences, where the noun phrase serves as the predicate and occupies the subject's canonical position. This finding unifies four areas of syntax into a cohesive framework, linking inverse copular sentences with existential sentences, constructions with "seem," and unaccusative forms. Additionally, it addresses classical syntactic issues, offering insights into expletives, locality theory, cliticization, possessive constructions, and cross-linguistic variations of the Definiteness Effect.
