F=PL syncretism and default gender in Shughni
Типология морфосинтаксических параметров. 2022. Vol. 5. No. 2. P. 27–44.
Kasenov D., Бадеев А. О.
This paper discusses an F=PL syncretism in Shughni. In Shughni, intransitive verbs have syncretic forms in past and perfect tenses when agreeing with a feminine singular, feminine plural, or masculine plural subject. The form when agreeing with a masculine singular subject is different. Unlike other languages with such syncretism, the default gender in Shughni is masculine. The paper suggests an analysis in the spirit of Distributed Morphology and discusses the problems that Shughni raises for more restrictive morphosyntactic theories, such as Nanosyntax.

Language comprehension and production are predominantly supported by the left-lateralized language-related network (LRN). However, right-hemispheric homologs of the language regions can also contribute to language processing, resulting in reduced left-hemispheric language lateralization. To date, it remains unclear whether less left-hemispheric language lateralization is associated with the recruitment of other non-language networks and their interaction with ...

Цифровые технологии XXI века способствуют формированию новых методологических подходов в гуманитарных науках, включая литературоведение и биографические исследования. Для автоматизации процессов сбора и аннотирования информации все чаще используют большие языковые модели (Large Language Models, LLM), включая ChatGPT. Развитие подобных инструментов стимулирует переход от традиционных методологических подходов, основанных на исключительно ручном аннотировании и экспертной верификации, к гибридным, ...

Unlike most other brachiopods, craniiforms lack a prominent pedicle, cement to a hard substrate by their ventral valve, and thereby can be easily distinguished in paleontological materials. In this study, we describe a new genus and species from the Porkuni Regional Stage of Northeastern Estonia (Baltica), corresponding to the lower part of the Hirnantian Stage ...

Although Brachiopoda represent a relatively small phylum, they exhibit significant morphological diversity. One of the central issues in understanding the evolution of the ancestral brachiopod body plan pertains to the homologies among body compartments across the different brachiopod subphyla: Craniiformea, Linguliformea, and Rhynchonelliformea. In this context, the pedicle stands out as one of the most ...

The paper also addresses the diachronic predictions of Nanosyntax and ...
