The OLST is pleased to announce the recent publication of the article “Dependency in Language” from Igor Mel’čuk in the 2nd edition of the prestigious International Encyclopedia of the Social & Behavioral Sciences:
The notion of linguistic dependency is introduced with three major types: semantic, syntactic, and morphological dependencies […]. The three types [and subtypes] of dependency can combine, producing 14 possible combinations of dependencies between two given lexemes in an utterance. Dependency and constituency are cursorily compared; several linguistic phenomena whose description is more conveniently done in terms of dependency are considered (valence and voice, lexical functions, phraseology, paraphrasing, word order).
