Variation in the InputStudies in the Acquisition of Word Order

The topic of variation in language has received considerable attention in the field of general linguistics in recent years. This includes research on linguistic micro-variation that is dependent on fine distinctions in syntax and information structure. However, relatively little work has been done on how this variation is acquired. This book focuses on how different types of variation are expressed in the input and how this is acquired by young children. The collection of papers includes studies of the acquisition of variation in a number of different languages, including English, German, Greek, Italian, Korean, Norwegian, Swiss German, Ukrainian, and American Sign Language.

Book Highlights from Springer

Dear reader,Welcome to the New Year 2011 and new Springer books in the first quarter. This catalog will help you to find the best books for study, education, research and profession. There is no overlap with the previous quarter’s Preview catalogs. The titles presented here are the highlights of January to March 2011. The best references for libraries, the most important monographs for researchers and the most interesting reads for any specialist in the field. They represent the top sellers amongst the 400+ titles published every month by Springer, especially selected for this catalog.Given the quick pace of electronic production today, some of our books get announced just after a print catalog has been issued. These are the “Fast Track” titles and you will find them listed in the very first pages here since they missed the last catalog. Please take a close look at these brand new titles and include them in your own selections.

With best wishes,

Sandra CortésTrade Marketing Manager
