An examination of the evidence for and the theoretical implications of a universal word order constraint, with data from a wide range of languages. This book presents evidence for a universal word order constraint, the Final-over-Final Condition (FOFC), and discusses the theoretical implications of this phenomenon. FOFC is a syntactic condition that disallows structures where a head-initial phrase is contained in a head-final phrase in the same extended projection/domain. The authors argue that FOFC is a linguistic universal, not just a strong tendency, and not a constraint on processing. They discuss the effects of the universal in various domains, including the noun phrase, the adjective phrase, the verb phrase, and the clause. The book draws on data from a wide range of languages, including Hindi, Turkish, Basque, Finnish, Afrikaans, German, Hungarian, French, English, Italian, Romanian, Arabic, Hebrew, Mandarin, Pontic Greek, Bagirmi, Dholuo, and Thai. FOFC, the authors argue, is important because it is the only known example of a word order asymmetry pertaining to the order of heads. As such, it has significant repercussions for theories connecting the narrow syntax to linear order.

Otto Dempwolff is far better known for his historical and comparative work than for his descriptive and theoretical contributions to linguistics. However, the work to which he devoted his last efforts before he died in 1938 was a grammatical description of Jabêm, an Austronesian language adopted and spread as a church and school lingua franca by the German Lutheran mission in what is now Morobe Province, Papua New Guinea. Although Jabêm is one of the best-documented languages in Melanesia (at least in Jabêm and German), the only materials available in English have been Streicher’s (1982) Jabêm-English Dictionary, a brief grammar sketch in Tryon’s (1995) Comparative Austronesian Dictionary, and sporadic articles on Jabêm tonogenesis and verb serialization. This translation of Otto Dempwolff’s grammar now adds a comprehensive overview and data-rich synthesis of Jabêm grammar. Because he wrote his grammar at the request of the Lutheran missionaries, Dempwolff took care to make his description understandable to an audience of educated lay people as well as to linguists by explaining his terminology and reasoning as he introduced new topics. This task was made all the more necessary because he considered Jabêm to be the most difficult Melanesian language he had ever encountered, one for which European grammatical models proved entirely inadequate. The result is a highly original, yet surprisingly accessible grammatical description by one of the founders of Austronesian comparative linguistics.
