We report on three experiments that aim at measuring the role of prosody in the acceptability and interpretation of discourse relations between utterances connected by two French discourse markers, viz. "et" "and" and "alors" "then/well." These two discourse markers are highly polyfunctional: "et"…

Chien, Chi-ying – English Language Teaching, 2019

Cutillas, Laia; Tolchinsky, Liliana – First Language, 2017
Adjectives, like nouns and verbs, are one of the three major classes of lexical words. But, unlike nouns and verbs, they emerge late in acquisition.

Torres, J. T.; Anguiano, Carlos J. – Practitioner Research in Higher Education, 2016
