In this book, Phil Branigan examines multiple head-movement, a very common morpho-syntactic phenomenon that forms a part of the grammar in Finnish, English, Perenakan Javanese, northern Norwegian and Swedish dialects, and generally in the Slavic and Algonquian language families. Basing his analysis on a new model of the grammatical parameters which control word formation in the human brain, Branigan identifies how careful attention to the contexts in which multiple head-movement takes place allows new generalizations to be identified. A new account of how complex words are formed, this study deepens our understanding of how languages vary and of the mental computational system of human grammars.
