In Stavroula Stavrakaki, Polyxeni Konstatinopoulou & Marina Lalioti (eds.): Advances in Language Acquisition: Proceedings of GALA 2011. Cambridge: Cambridge Scholars Publishing, pp. 4-13.http://hdl.handle.net/10451/30662This study is concerned with the acquisition of structures with non-basic word order involving constituents on the left and right peripheries of the sentence in European Portuguese (EP). Considering the recent debate on the acquisition of interfaces (especially the syntax/discourse interface), the main goal of this study is to discuss children’s comprehension of structures with left- and right-peripheral constituents (topics and antitopics), taking into account their syntactic and information status in both child and adult grammars.engAcquisitionLeft peripheriesRight peripheriesAcquisition of the Left and Right Peripheries in European Portuguesejournal article
