Testing for aphasia in Armenian language: A comparison between tablet- and paper-based approaches
This project is looking for (traces of) the resultative verbal construction (Ed hammers the metal flat) in 3 Romance (French, Spanish, Romanian) and 1 German (Dutch) language, in order to capture the microtypological variation w.r.t. lexical scope and productivity of the construction, against the background of other typological properties of these languages.

First, it will investigate the speed of language change by monitoring phenomena mostly operating at two different levels, namely the lexicon ...

personal variables. Only in this way can one arrive at a better understanding of what productivity is.
