  • Main clause phenomena in subordinate clauses

  • Georgia M. Green
  • Journal:
    Language / Volume 52 / Issue 2 / June 1976
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    12 March 2026, pp. 382-397

  • A number of syntactic constructions claimed by linguists to be restricted to main clauses are shown to occur, in fact, in a variety of subordinate clause types, but only under certain mysterious conditions—basically, when the speaker desires to be understood as committed to the truth of the subordinate clause. Formalization of this notion, however, remains elusive. The analysis of this phenomenon by Hooper & Thompson 1973, while attractive and initially explanatory, is shown to be, before the final analysis, incapable of accounting for the range of embedding environments allowed, which differs from one restricted construction to another. It is shown in the present paper that an adequate solution will involve a complex interaction of several factors—syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic—and the range of data to be accounted for is partially delineated.

  • A Re-Examination of ‘Normal Stress‘

  • Susan F. Schmerling
  • Journal:
    Language / Volume 50 / Issue 1 / March 1974
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    12 March 2026, pp. 66-73

  • 'Normal stress'—a notion frequently encountered in phonology and, especially, syntax—has never been adequately defined. Linguists have apparently made a tacit assumption that the stress in citations elicited from an informant is the same as the stress used by a speaker making a minimum of special assumptions; but this is shown to be false. It is argued that ‘normal stress’, a notion inherited from structuralist linguistics, was required by assumptions inconsistent with those of the generative framework; and that this notion, even if it can be defined so as to be consistent with generative assumptions, is not a particularly useful one.
