Agreement Morphology and the Acquisition of Noun-Drop in Spanish.
Snyder, William; Senghas, Ann; Inman, Kelly
Language Acquisition, v9 n2 p157-73 2001
Investigates acquisition of noun-drop in Spanish. Indicates that rich agreement morphology is not a sufficient condition for noun-drop. Supports a model of the human language faculty in which points of syntactic variation are not fully reducible to the overt inflectional and declensional morphology. (Author/VWL)
