先修課程
課程簡介	Comparison across natural languages is an essential part of formal linguistics. The study of closely-related varieties has proven extremely useful in comparing differences that might otherwise appear unrelated, and has helped to identify the core principles of Universal Grammar. This course is aimed to achieve two main goals. It is designed to provide a general and theoretical introduction to comparative syntax, its methodology, and its relation to other domains of linguistic inquiry. It is also aimed to provide a systematic presentation and discussion of the important comparative works being done on those language groups and families where substantial progress has been achieved. In particular, we will touch upon two major theoretical directions within the generative framework: macroparametric and microparametric approaches. On top of that, the students are expected to explore a large amount of empirical phenomena and how these are realized across the world’s languages (or not) and to find adequate explanations for the variations observed.
