Abstract:

The paper examines the distribution of gender agreement patterns with common gender nouns and the factors influencing the choice of a particular agreement pattern in Russian. After conducting a series of sentence completion and acceptability judgement experiments, we argue that referential agreement is the most preferable agreement model. Mismatch with a male referent is unacceptable; for the female referent it is marginal and dependent on the type of construction, but the acceptability and sentence completion data come into conflict. Mixed agreement is unacceptable. I show that common gender

Abstract:

Maasai nouns (or determined NPs) occur in one of three genders: masculine/ augmentative, feminine/diminutive, or place (the last is extremely limited). The Maasai gender system is semantic rather than formal (i.e., based on phonological or morphological criteria) in type, but with at least two distinct semantic subtypes. For a restricted set of nouns, gender is immutably based on lexical semantic features. Other nouns are lexically neutral, or have a default gender specification which can be overridden by the speaker's construal of the referent as small/ female, large/male, or pejorative. Vary

Abstract:

Gender is a grammatical category defined as an abstract morphosyntactic feature of nouns reflected in characteristics of associated words (i.e. agreement) (Hockett, 1958; Corbett, 1991). Agreement is, in fact, easily established in “transparent” nouns which follow either semantic or formal rule of gender agreement. However, when we deal with ambiguous nouns regarding their gender, agreement is not straightforward. In this article we aim to pursue two main goals. Firstly, to review and briefly describe grammatical gender system in Spanish (§1) with a special focus on so called “ambiguous” or “p

Abstract:

This pilot study is a contribution to the theoretical debate on the impact language has on general cognition. More specifically, we applied a Word Sketch collocator (an innovative NLP tool operating on large-scale corpora) to collect human adjective collocations of masculine, feminine, and neuter inanimate nouns in German, Dutch, and English to see whether there is a correlation between the grammatical genders of inanimate nouns and the adjective collocations most frequently used to describe those nouns. Later, in a series of online questionnaires, we examined the impact of grammatical gender

Abstract:

Recent psycholinguistic research has focused on how different grammatical gender marking strategies affect people's mental representation of referents’ gender. Such works particularly explored how explicitly encoded linguistic elements, such as grammatical gender markers, may drive the inferential process as attentional clues. Results of reading comprehension tasks in French and German have shown that the explicit encoding of masculine gender in plural forms of role nouns often leads to a male bias, a specific masculine inference corresponding to the grammatical gender clue, even when the masc

Abstract:

This article explores the use of Danish neuter gender quantifiers noget, meget, and lidt with singular and plural common gender nouns. The use of these lexemes can be explained by the two tendencies in modern Danish, both of which entail the violation of the grammatical norm, i. e. the use of common gender nouns with neuter gender lexemes (noget mad, noget sygdom, meget tid etc.). The study of linguistic data also demonstrates that the use of these units in combination with countable nouns is getting more common in the Danish language (noget ananas, meget læge, lidt problemer, noget mand).

Abstract:

This study investigated the gender-congruency effect of animate nouns in Hebrew. The Picture–Word Interference paradigm was used to manipulate gender congruency between target pictures and spoken distractors. Naming latency revealed an inhibitory gender-congruency effect, as naming the pictures took longer in the presence of a gender-congruent distractor than with a distractor from a different gender category. The inhibitory effect was demonstrated for feminine (morphologically marked) nouns, across two stimulus-onset asynchronies (SOAs) (Experiments 1a and 1b), and masculine (morphologically

These anthroponyms can belong to masculine or feminine (but not neuter) gender, as in Alex and Kris; to masculine, feminine or neuter gender, e.g. Toni, Niki and Nase(to); to masculine or neuter gender: Zhore(to), Mite(to); or to feminine or neuter gender, as in Mimi(to) and Gerganche(to).

Abstract:

Traditional computational accounts of gender representation and learning (e.g., Carroll, 1989, 1995) differ radically from cue-based and connectionist accounts. The latter but not the former predicts that access to noun gender will vary depending on the reliability of noun endings (and other sublexical elements and morphological constituents) in marking gender, and that agreement markers can be used strategically to constrain the genders of ambiguously marked nouns. Adult native (L1) speakers of Russian (Experiment 1) and advanced nonnative (L2) speakers (Experiment 2) read Russian sentences o

La présente thèse est consacrée à l’étude de la catégorie des noms du genre commun dans deux langues slaves : le russe et l'ukrainien. Les noms de cette catégorie ont deux particularités.

Nous montrons que leur expressivité peut dépendre de leur contenu phonétique et morphologique ainsi que des constructions syntaxiques dans lesquelles ces noms sont employés. Deuxièmement, les noms de cette catégorie présentent des particularités morphosyntaxiques : ils peuvent appeler l’accord syntaxique ainsi que l’accord s

Abstract:

The only (non-divisive) way to address the representation of linguistic gender identity is to attempt – albeit not without difficulty – a negotiation between the protection of the common linguistic norm and accommodating the progressive proliferation of identities. This process must begin from a specific point, one for which no general consensus yet exists. There is no grammatical sacrilege in feminizing terms such as sindaco or ministro: in Italian, masculine nouns ending in -o typically take -a in their feminine forms, leaving no structural reason to reject sindaca or ministra.

Abstract The repetition of nominal forms with morphological modification is common as a device for narrative and argumentative continuity.1 But juxtaposition and short units can make this sort of repetition striking, despite its frequency, for example: And there is evidence that such syntax could be the basis of imitation, and thus qualify for our definition of a figure: This chapter, however, considers only two rather pointed types of noun modification (case interchange and gender combinations) with a third section on multiple modifications of nouns (especially triplets).

Abstract The gender of many Russian nouns has changed in the period since 1917. The largest specific group consists of those affected by the change from masculine to common or varied gender—a change motivated by the new roles of Russian women in Soviet society. This phenomenon is of such proportions that we have allotted a separate chapter to it (Chapter 6). There have been other kinds of gender-change, however, which, in addition, have had more effect on the overall grammatical system of Russian since they involved change of declension.

Abstract Hittite neuter nouns must take a dedicated -ants/antes form when occurring as the subject of a transitive verb. There is still no consensus on the interpretation of this pattern: for some scholars -ant- is a derivational suffix indicating gender motion from neuter to common gender. Others regard -ants as an ergative case marker, assuming that Hittite features a gender-based split-ergativity system. This chapter discusses evidence on the distribution of -ants nouns in chronologically ordered Hittite texts, showing that the suffix started out as derivational in Old Hittite, becoming an

One of the most common questions regarding the proper use of a toponym in Portuguese is related with the (i) obligation, (ii) possibility or (iii) interdiction to employ an article as a toponymic gender marker.

The article examines some peculiarities of the category of gender in the Danish language through the prism of combinability of nouns with agreement forms. Step-by-step analysis of the samples comprising both spoken and written Danish enables us to come to a conclusion that insofar as the Danish language is concerned the category of gender is not a purely grammatical category expressed in article forms. It transpires that the opposition of “specific denotatum” (common gender) and “matter” (neuter gender) makes the category of gender a semantic category as well. Besides, the category of gender i
