{"product_id":"9780521024099","title":"Syntax and Parsing","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book examines the role of syntax in theories of sentence comprehension, and argues for a distinct processing component which is devoted to the recovery of syntactic structure and which utilizes the contrasting types of information found within a Government-Binding grammar. Paul Gorrell contrasts the primary relations (dominance and precedence) and secondary relations (case assignment, theta-role assignment, etc.) in a phrase-structure tree, and shows how this computational distinction of information types is reflected in the internal structure of the parser, which consists of two sub-components: a structure builder (responsible for creating nodes in a tree and positing primary relations between them), and a structure interpreter (responsible for analysing the tree in terms of secondary relations). This model can also predict garden-path phenomena in the processing of verb-final clauses.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paul Gorrell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52685938753854,"sku":"9780521024099","price":1818.15,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/files\/9780521024099.jpg?v=1764861481","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9780521024099","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
