Other Stuff


  • Introduction to Transformational Grammar. Lecture notes for a first semester graduate introduction to theoretical syntax. (warning: it's a 1.7mb file)

  • My BibTeX file. A bibliography database to be used with LaTeX. Contains some 5500 entries, including all of the articles in Journal of East Asian Linguistics, Syntax, and Natural Language Semantics, and many of those in Linguistic Inquiry, Natural Language and Linguistic Theory, Studia Linguistica, Journal of Comparative Germanic Linguistics, and Language Acquisition.
