      ABSTRACT = {Drawing on data from Czech and English, we first argue against a uniform syntactic treatment of reciprocals and reflexives. We then define a binding theory for Czech which differs from HPSG binding theory in two main points. First, it is based on an ordering (the D-ordering) which is more general than HPSG's obliqueness ordering -- this permits a natural treatment of adjuncts. Second, it distinguishes between reflexives and reciprocals and submits them to different binding constraints. Finally, we provide a semantics for reciprocals with summated antecedents.},

      ABSTRACT = {In this article we wish to concentrate on a non-transformational description of the structure of complex verb forms in Modern Bulgarian, Slavonic language performing some Balkanic features in its morphology and syntax, which makes it differ considerably from other languages of the Slavonic group. Almost no such attempts have been made before, although some of the syntactic problems that arise have been mentioned and treated from different viewpoints in studies concerned with complex tenses, with voice and mood, with the status of pronouns, of negative and interrogative particles etc. The partially free word order of Bulgarian has been mentioned in very few works based on the transformational approach. For the sake of description of the Bulgarian verb complex, we felt we had to refrain from some of the standards of the linguistic background of many current non-transformational (as well as other) approaches. The changes we introduced concern the constituent structures used and they consist inriching the established approach with ideas stemming from the works of the Prague Linguistic School, namely with the notion of communicative dynamism. The shape of the structures is briefly sketched in the first part of the work, while the linguistic facts and their description are the main content of its second part; in the closing paragraphs, some phenomena are mentioned which were not examined in detail in the central sections of the work and their incorporation into the description as presented before is considered.}

      ABSTRACT = {Our main goal is to propose a unified analysis of the second position and Wackernagel phenomena, which would adequately accommodate also certain non-trivial data that seem to be problematic for the currently available approaches: 1. Correct sentences with multiple syntactic constituents preceding the sentential clitics in Czech, and respectively, multiple syntactic constituency in the German Vorfeld: a. Czech clitics (respectively, the tensed verb in German main clauses) preceded by two or more adverbials describing together a spatial or temporal interval; b. Czech clitics (respectively, the tensed verb in German main clauses) preceded by two or more adverbials of the same type, which can be viewed as a repetition of the respective modification; c. Czech clitics (respectively, the tensed verb in German main clauses) preceded by a combination of a temporal and a local adverbial; d. Czech clitics (respectively, the tensed verb in German main clauses) preceded by more than one contrasted syntactic constituents 2. Sentences with a single constituent preceding the sentential clitics (respectively, single constituent in the Vorfeld) but judged to be highly unacceptable . We reconsider the Prague School treatment of the communicative structure of the sentence, and assume that, for each particular utterance, it can be determined which of the contained elements are informationally essential (significant) - i.e. informationally indispensable from a communicative perspective - and which of them are informationally unessential (insignificant) - i.e. without actual communicative contribution - and occur in the utterance for other, e.g., structural, pleonastic etc., reasons only. On such a basis we (re)introduce the notion of communicative importance. We further assume that not all elements of an utterance can be assigned a degree of communicative dynamism - i.e. that there are items for which the feature communicative importance is inappropriate. Another assumption is that in an utterance there might exist two or more syntactically distinguishable constituents which are of equal communicative importance. After these modifications, we introduce a structuring of an utterance into communicative units which we tentatively call communicative segments. A substantial communicative segment is defined as a contiguous sequence of adjacent syntactic units (i.e. words or phrases) of equal communicative importance, while an auxiliary communicative segment is a contiguous sequence of informationally insignificant items for which communicative importance is inappropriate as a feature. From such a perspective the Wackernagel's clitic cluster in Czech is regarded as an instance of an auxiliary communicative segment. We further define the second / Wackernagel position as the position delimiting the first (leftmost) substantial communicative segment in an utterance, and thus propose an alternative treatment also of the German Vorfeld. Inasmuch as there are language-specific constraints on what can form a substantial communicative segment, our analysis allows for a natural explanation also of, e.g., the constituent-second / word-second position of Serbo-Croatian clitics.}

In this paper we shall explain the theoretical basis of the approach as well as try to prove that it is not only practically, but also theoretically superior to the current standard treatment.}

      ABSTRACT = {The main stress of this paper will be put on description and explanation of certain phenomena concerning the crossing dependencies (non-projective constructions), but some more general implications of the proposals contained will be mentioned as well. To this end, two recent approaches to the problem will be reviewed and compared, which comparison creates actually the very core of the paper. The first of the appraches to description of crossing dependencies is presented in the paper On Head Non-Movement by Pollard. This approach tries to implant the crossing into the (syntactic) structure. To achieve this goal, it uses means resulting in changing the intuitive subcategorization requirements of words and phrases involved - actually a non-transformational analog of raising. The second approach, put forward in the paper by Reape A Theory of Word Order And Discontinuous Constituency in West Continental Germanic, keeps the immediate dominance relations (expressing subcategorization, among other) intact, and aims at describing the crossing phenomena by means of non-concatenative phonology. Unsurprisingly, it can be shown that, in the general case, neither of them is to be considered satisfactory alone, and that only a reasonable combination of the two can be hoped to cover the full range of data. Nevertheless, one of the approaches will be shown to be superior to the other as to description of their syntactically interesting part. Later some refinements and changes of this approach will be proposed (together with their motivations), with the aim of making the theory fit better the empirical data. The sketched approach is illustrated on certain constructions from German and Czech.}

The possibilities of expressing different approaches to word order in the framework are briefly discussed, exemplified and compared to other methods.}

      ABSTRACT = {In this paper, we review the traditional term word order freedom and show that it can be understood in two ways: first, as the freedom of order of elements within a continuous head domain, and second, as the freedom of extraction out of a finite head domain, that is, as the freedom of making head domain(s) discontinuous. Further on, we concentrate on the more linguistical aspects of the latter understanding. In particular, we compare the pair of languages Czech and English, whose considerably different status as to the severity of constraints on ordering of elements within a continuous head domain of the finite verb is notorious, and aim this comparison at the possibilities which these languages offer for discontinuity of head domains. In this respect, we demonstrate that the two possible ways of understanding of word order freedom correlate, that is to say that English with its rather fixed order freedom within a continuos head domain also imposes severe constraints on extraction out of these domains, while Czech with its almost free order within a domain is also much more liberal as to extraction. The paper contains a longer discussion of this issue, together with a number of relevant examples from both languages.},

      ABSTRACT = {The prevailing current view of a (symbolic, computational) grammar is basically that of a set of rewriting rules using featurestructured categories. However, whenever such a grammar is aimed at development of a real world applied project, at least two disadvantages become clear. First, it breaks with the traditional understanding of a grammar as a network of phenomena (such as agreement, subcategorization, etc.), thus impeding the (direct) incorporation of this knowledge into such grammars. Second, a realistic grammar is inevitably huge and simultaneously contains very complex interdependencies among rules. This makes any modularization of grammar engineering (aka division of labour within a team) and above all maintaining and debugging realistic grammars a virtually impossible task. This paper presents an alternative view of formal (computational) grammars of natural language allowing for smooth modularization of the grammarwriting process and hence for meeting the pressing task of distributed grammardevelopment. The examples of both problems and their solutions are related to grammars in HPSG style, however, the problems discussed are in no way HPSG specific, just on the contrary, they indeed concern any approach making use of feature structured categories.},
