This course investigates the common syntactic properties underlying human languages. This is done by comparing similar linguistic structures in a variety of related languages and teasing apart the phenomena that seem constant from the parts that seem to vary. This process also showcases how to construct and evaluate theories of syntactic phenomena. Prerequisite: Linguistics 401 or 401H.
