Case marking is different in monolingual and heritage Bosnian in digitally elicited oral texts [PDF]
Heritage languages may differ from baseline languages spoken in the home country, particularly in the domains of vocabulary, morphosyntax and phonology.

New structural patterns in moribund grammar: Case marking in Heritage German [PDF]
Research treats divergences between monolingual and heritage grammars in terms of performance — ‘L1 attrition’, e.g. lexical retrieval — or competence — ‘incomplete acquisition’, e.g. lack of overt tense markers (e.g.

Case in Lotha, (a Tibeto-Burman language spoken in Wokha District of Nagaland) is marked by suffixes that appear to the right of the noun it marks. In Lotha the ergative marker can combine with both nouns and pronouns, however, the nominative markers can

Case Marking in Hindi as the Weaker Language [PDF]
Does language dominance modulate knowledge of case marking in Hindi-speaking bilinguals? Hindi is a split ergative language with a rich morphological case system. Subjects of transitive perfective predicates are marked with ergative case (-ne).

Ethical dative and prepositional genitive in conflict-inducing phrases in Russian [PDF]
This article focuses on the morpho-syntactic structure of conflict-inducing phrases in Russian. These constructions are intended for the addressee or nonparticipant of the speech act, but also contain reference to the speaker, who effectively does not ...

Two strategies of case marking in natural languages are discussed. These are defined as two violable constraints whose effects are shown to converge in the case of differential object marking but diverge in the case of differential subject marking.

The Curious Case of Bivalent Marks [PDF]
Bivalently marked chromatin, containing both histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) and H3K27 trimethylation, is a hallmark of developmentally regulated paused promoters in mammalian embryonic stem cells. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Akkers et al. report that Xenopus tropicalis embryos transition through early development without the requirement for ...

Average Case Analysis of Marking Algorithms [PDF]
The Lindstrom marking algorithm uses bounded workspace. Its time complexity is \(O(n^ 2)\) in all cases, but it has been assumed that the average case time complexity is O(n log n). It is proven that the average case time complexity is \(\Theta (n^ 2)\) for a wide variety of probability distributions.
