Papers

Stages rather than ages in the acquisition of movement structures: Data from sentence repetition and 27696 spontaneous clauses (2021)
The study asks in what order Hebrew children acquire movement and embedding structures, and whether that order depends on age or on stage.
Reciprocal expressions and the Maximal Typicality Hypothesis (2018)
For a reciprocal such as 'each other' with three agents, the Strongest Meaning Hypothesis (SMH) predicts that listeners always take the strongest reading, where every agent acts on every other one.
The head the construct: Construct state nominals as a novel window to syntactic movement difficulties in hearing impairment (2018)
The authors test a syntactic claim about Hebrew Construct State nominals (CSN): the head noun moves to the determiner position (N-to-D), so no determiner can stand before the head.
No case for Case in locality: Case does not help interpretation when intervention blocks A-bar chains (2017)
The question is whether the Hebrew object marker et, which marks definite direct objects, helps people interpret sentences in which the object has moved to the front.
