Abstract:
This experiment investigates the origin of basic word order (order of S(ubject), V(erb) and O(bject)) in language. Studies that use a paradigm in which participants improvise to convey information using only their hands and bodies but no speech (silent gesture) suggest that the orders produced by participants in improvisation are influenced by systematic preferences that cannot be explained by virtue of their native language. Schouwstra & de Swart (2014) examined the role of naturalness in generating alternations in basic word order and found that participants prefer using SOV order for extensional verbs (which typically describe some action through space, e.g., 'the pirate swings a guitar') and SVO order for intensional verbs (the direct- object referents of which are non-existent, non-specific, or dependent on the action, e.g. 'a pirate dreams of a guitar', 'a girl wants a cake', 'a boy knits a scarf'; Forbes, 2013). This meaning-based word order preference is important, because it indicates a ...
