(Deputy Spokesperson): DFG Graduate school Nominal Modification (with 13 colleagues in Linguistics, Spokesperson: E. Rinke) The overarching theme of this linguistic RTG is the grammar of nominal expressions and their modifications. Nouns can be modified with various constructions, such as adjectives (the big car), prepositional phrases (the car with the sun roof) or relative clauses (the car which is standing in the car park). The researchers will analyse the underlying mechanisms, which they will be looking at from a syntactic and a semantic perspective, as well as within the context of various linguistic sub-disciplines. With this cross-linguistic approach as a basis, it is intended to create a linguistics research platform with an international profile.

(Group Leader with T. Marinis): Language Impairment in a multilingual society: Linguistic patterns and the road to assessment (PI: Sharon Armon-Lotem) Second language learners often produce language patterns resembling those of children with Specific Language Impairment (SLI). The overlap among the features of bilingual and impaired language lead to methodological and clinical confusion, which this Action aims to resolve in order to improve language assessment of minority language children.

(Group Leader): Crosslinguistic robust stages of children's linguistic performance with application to language assessment (PI: Uli Sauerland) Action A33 set out with the practical goal of helping European children with language impairments. One important way to help such children is to diagnose cases of language-specific impairment and normal non-verbal intelligence. To accomplish the goal, the action coordinated a comparative investigation of child language across the more than 25 participating languages.
