This book explores the interaction of grammatical components in a variety of languages and is organized along four themes: the structural properties of sentences interfacing with meaning and the lexicon; word structure and its effect on the syntactic and phonological components; the syntax-phonology interface and its relation to the phonetics-phonology interface; and the implications of interfaces for language acquisition and language processing.
