Inferable and Partitive Indefinites in Topic Position Von Heusinger, Klaus; Özge, Umut (Brill, 2021-01-01) The topic position in a sentence is reserved for familiar and/or referential arguments (Kuno, 1972; Reinhart, 1981; Portner & Yabushita, 2001). Thus, the typical topic is a definite expression such as a pronoun, a proper name or a definite noun phrase. However, indefinites can appear in topic position if they are referential, i.e. specific or generic. Following Prince (1981c) we argue that indefinite noun phrases can also be topics if they are weakly familiar, i.e. discourse-linked. We assume that there are...

Inflection and derivation in native and non-native language processing: Masked priming experiments on Turkish Kırkıcı, Bilal (2013-10-01) Much previous experimental research on morphological processing has focused on surface and meaning-level properties of morphologically complex words, without paying much attention to the morphological differences between inflectional and derivational processes. Realization-based theories of morphology, for example, assume specific morpholexical representations for derived words that distinguish them from the products of inflectional or paradigmatic processes. The present study reports results from a series ...
Inferable Indefinites and the Discourse-Information Structure Interface Özge, Umut (null; 2018-08-29)
Semantic/pragmatic processing in turkish propositionalattitude verbs: the case of "zannet" Albayrak, Samet; Özge, Umut; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2019) This thesis investigated the Theory of Mind (ability to infer mental states) in a verbal medium. In addition to that, some propositional attitude verbs that are used for providing such a medium are investigated semantically and pragmatically. Evaluated verbs were bil (know), düşün (think), and zannet (~falsely-believe). These verbs are used for creating a paradigm where speaker's beliefs are encoded in the utterance, and participants were expected to predict emotional responses to given situations using the...
