Abstract

We intend to approach some phenomena of natural languages by means of grammar systems. Problems as word order, constituents movements, subcategorization and the working of the linguistic system — considered as a set of independent modules that work together to produce natural language- will be tackled taking into account grammar systems theory.

Research supported by a FI fellowship from Direcció General de Recerca/CIRIT, Generalitat de Catalunya.
