Early activation of Broca’s area in grammar processing as revealed by the syntactic mismatch negativity and distributed source analysis.
Cognitive Neuroscience. 2014. Vol. 5. No. 2. P. 66–76.
Though activation of Broca's region in the combinatorial processing of symbols (language, music) has been revealed by neurometabolic studies, most previous neurophysiological research found the earliest grammar indices in the temporal cortex, with inferior-frontal generators becoming active at relatively late stages. We use the attention- and task-free syntactic mismatch negativity (sMMN) event-related potential (ERP) to measure rapid and automatic sensitivity of the human brain to grammatical information in participants' native language (French). Further, sources underlying the MMN were estimated by applying the Parametrical Empirical Bayesian (PEB) approach, with the Multiple Sparse Priors (MSP) technique. Results showed reliable grammar-related activation focused on Broca's region already in the 150-190 ms time window, providing robust documentation of its involvement in the first stages of syntactic processing.

This article examines the syntax of constructions with aspectual verbs in Sakha (a.k.a. Yakut). Such constructions contain two predicates: a lexical verb which is a converb, and a finite aspectual verb that conveys some grammatical meaning. The syntax of such constructions has already been studied for some other Turkic languages. The pre‑ sent research examines ...

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 ...

Pre-trained language models have significantly advanced natural language processing (NLP), particularly in analyzing languages with complex morphological structures. This study addresses lemmatization for the Russian language, the errors in which can critically affect the performance of information retrieval, question answering, and other tasks. We present the results of experiments on generative lemmatization using pre-trained language ...

According to its Constitution, Russia is a secular state where the church is separated from the state. However, it would be incorrect to rule out any influence of religion onto law only because of these constitutional principles of secularity and separation.

У ряда предикатов позицию прямого объекта может занимать глагольная группа (клауза), а не именная. Существует множество разных стратегий оформления вложенного предиката (стратегии комплементации). Типологически семантические классы предикатов, способных в качестве комплемента принимать клаузу, во многом универсальны. В работе [Noonan 2007: 70–95] предлагается разделение матричных предикатов на 13 семантических групп. В исследовании рассматривается поведение при клаузальной комплементации ...

The paper examines restrictions on clitic climbing in French. Three types of restrictions are identified - restrictions on the matrix verb (its frequency, semantics, and the presence of a preposition with which the infinitive clause is attached), restrictions on the clitics themselves, and syntactic restrictions (presence of negative particles, complex verb form). The existence of the restrictions ...

Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a leading cause of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Altered placental formation and functional capacity are major contributors to FGR pathogenesis. Relating placental structure to function across the placenta in healthy and FGR pregnancies remains largely unexplored but could improve understanding of placental diseases. We investigated integration of these parameters spatially ...

The neural underpinnings of processing concrete and abstract semantics remain poorly understood. Previous
fMRI studies have shown that multimodal and amodal neural networks respond differentially to different semantic
types; importantly, abstract semantics activates more left-lateralized networks, as opposed to more
bilateral activity for concrete words. Due to the lack of temporal resolution, these fMRI results do not allow ...

В статье обсуждается морфологический статус и происхождение формы творительного падежа множественного числа в древнеармянском склонении. Типологическая уникальность этой формы состоит в том, что она, во-первых, в рамках древнеармянской флективной системы оказывается членимой, представляя собой комбинацию падежного показателя с показателем множественного числа -k‘, и, во-вторых, показатель числа занимает линейную позицию после показателя падежа (а не перед ...
