Free word order and discourse interpretation

Abstract (may include machine translation)

This monograph brings together a set of related experimental studies that investigate speech processing in Hungarian. The studies were designed to explore some theoretical and methodological possibilities that the comparative, cross-linguistic study of language processing offers. The major aim of the experiments was to systematically investigate to what degree recent models of language comprehension, that were developed on the basis of empirical studies carried out in English (or, in some cases, other, but typologically closely related languages), can be generalized to languages of a typologically radically different character, exemplified by Hungarian. The experimental studies share a specific common theme which concerns the functional role of the clause-boundary in sentence processing.
