Topic: V2 word order

  4 Revising Pintzuk's analysis.
Such subordinate V2 order occurs in clauses where the nominative subject is absent or is licensed to appear in a position other than Spec,IP, as in passive sentences or in sentences with experiencer dative ``subjects.'' In such cases there is often no nominative NP, and agreement on the verb is the default third person singular.
V2 languages are universally defined by a requirement that topics be in a Spec-head relationship with the finite verb.
The possibility of V2 word order in non-CP-recursion subordinate clauses is accommodated, and its limitation to contexts where the subject does not appear in Spec,IP is accounted for.

  Word order - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Word order, in linguistic typology, refers to the order in which words appear in sentences across different languages.
German and Dutch are SOV with V2 word order.
However, speaking of a language having a given word order is generally understood as a reference to the basic, unmarked, non-emphatic word order for sentences with constituents expressed by full nouns or noun phrases.

 V2 word order - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Verb-second (V2) word order, in syntax, is the effect that in some languages the second constituent of declarative main clauses is always a verb, while this is not necessarily the case in other types of clauses.
The usual analysis of the Dutch (and German) V2 phenomenon is that the "normal" position of the verb is at the end of the clause (SOV) and that in main clauses, the inflected verb moves to the second position.
V2 word order is primarily associated with Germanic languages, English being a notable exception.

The analytical problem posed by Old English V2 word order depends on the empirical assumption that the order in (1) is obligatory.
However, a statistical analysis of word order patterns in the now available York-Toronto parsed corpus of Old English shows that this empirical assumption is false.
We argue that the patterns of verb-subject order in Old English arise from variation in the position of subjects, as discussed in Haeberli (2000).

Thus the net excitation (excitation from the word node minus inhibition from letter nodes) received by a letter node decreases the later in the word it is to be produced.
Word class nodes are connected to nodes representing all words in the class, so that, for instance, the adj node is connected to all adjectives.
Many other languages show much "freer" word order, by which it is meant that constituents in a sentence with a given meaning are not bound to appear in a single particular order (Givon, 1979).

V2 word order (V2) is a subset of the SVO word order.
It refers to those languages (primarily German, and Dutch) which invariantly place the conjugated verb in the second position in a full clause.
Note the difference between the English, and German word orders, that English has two elements before the verb, while the German has only one.

 1 Introduction.
In the better known languages (German, Dutch, and Mainland Scandinavian), verb-second word order results from movement of the tensed verb to the COMP (C-zero) position and concomitant movement of some maximal projection to the specifier of CP.
Most strikingly, while all V2 languages exhibit verb-second word order in main clauses, the two subtypes differ in the availability of this word order in subordinate clauses.
In striking contrast to the southern dialect, however, the northern dialect of Middle English appears to have developed the verb-movement syntax of a standard CP-V2 language and hence to be similar in its syntax to the modern Mainland Scandinavian languages.

 V2 without positions   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
In particular, one finds triplets of adverbs that are not transitively ordered (a must precede b, b must precede c, but a and c can occur in either order), and cases where adverbs and verbs (also arguments and adverbs) appear to be ordered by orthogonal relations.
I conclude that one should rethink the idea that word order phenomena is to be accommodated in sequences of `positions', where the `positions' are determined by FSEQ (and/or orhogonal relations).
In particular, V2 violations in Scandinavian interact with pronoun shift to show that the verb, in fact, does not move to `second position' as a head.

 #035 Embedded Root Phenomena
The particular phenomenon most famously reanalysed as a case of movement to Comp is the Germanic Verb Second (V2) phenomenon, in particular as evidenced in German and Dutch; the empirical strength of the analysis is the immediate explanation for the complementarity of V2 and the presence of a lexical complementiser.
V2 is analysed as the effect of the tensed verb moving to the empty Comp position, and some XP moving to Spec[CP].
V2 clauses introduced by a complementiser can only appear as the complements of a restricted set of verbs (as in Frisian, these verbs are a subset of the "bridge" verbs that allow extraction).

 Subject Object Verb -
In linguistic typology, Subject Object Verb (SOV) is the type of languages in which the subject, object, and verb of a sentence appear (usually) in that order.
This type of ordering is sometimes (although rarely) used in English under poetic license, especially in works of William Shakespeare.
SOV languages tend to have the adjectives before nouns, to use postpositions rather than prepositions, to place relative clauses before the nouns to which they refer, and to place auxiliary verbs after the action verb.

If your language is described as V2, your word order examples should include ungrammatical examples where the verb is not in second position, and a variety of grammatical examples where it is.
If your language indicates questions with word order variations, go back to your negative examples under word order and check whether anything marked as ungrammatical there is really grammatical as a question.
In order to do this, the formatting of the plain text file has to be relatively strict.

Using these articles, the original case system nearly doubled and four number distinctions were added, and the number of possible ways to conjugate a verb jumped from 87 to 1920 (not including verbal nouns and advectives).
By adding a syllable or two to the root word, one can express complex ideas such as whether the action was benificial or harmful.
As Kseanx is outside of the main language tree of Aerdor, I focused on peculiar features, such as VSO/V3 word order (V3 is a variation on V2 word order found in German; see External Links below for more information on V2) and nearly pure ergative-absolutive typology.
