Dan Wheeler, Julia McMorrough, "The Architecture Reference & Specification Book: Everything Architects Need to Know Every Day"


English | ISBN: 1592538487 | 2013 | PDF | 272 pages | 53 MB




Most architectural standards references contain thousands of pages of details—overwhelmingly more than architects need to know to know on any given day. The Architecture Reference & Specification Book contains vital information that"s essential to planning and executing architectural projects of all shapes and sizes, in a format that is small enough to carry anywhere. It distills the data provided in standard architectural volumes and is an easy-to-use reference for the most indispensable—and most requested—types of architectural information.

Pronouns and Word Order in Old English: With Particular Reference to the Indefinite Pronoun Man




Linda van Bergen, "Pronouns and Word Order in Old English: With Particular Reference to the Indefinite Pronoun Man"


2015 | ISBN-10: 1138918466 | 244 pages | PDF | 5 MB




First published in 2003, this is a study of the syntactic behaviour of personal pronoun subjects and the indefinite pronoun man, in Old English. It focuses on differences in word order as compared to full noun phrases. In generative work on Old English, noun phrases have usually divided into two categories: "nominal" and "pronominal". The latter category has typically been restricted to personal pronouns, but despite striking similarities to the behaviour of nominals there has been good reason to believe that man should be grouped with personal pronouns. This book explores investigations carried out in conjunction with the aid of the Toronto Corpus, which confirmed this hypothesis.
