Jameela Ann Lares jlares@ocean.otr.usm.edu Russian Syntax During a class discussion on syntax as a regular feature language, and particularly the organization of subject, verb, and object, one of my students claimed that Russian doesn't seem to him to have any regular syntactic organization whatsoever, or at least no regular organization of some order of SVO. I told him it was unlikely that that was the case, but that I would check with my colleagues on the Linguist List. So, the question is twofold: 1. Isn't Russian syntax regular in general? 2. Doesn't it have a regular order for subject, verb, object? Jameela Lares Department of English University of Southern Mississippi Hattiesburg, MS 39406 |
