Lexical Functional Grammar - 7: Beyond Syntax: Nonsyntactic Structures
Lexical Functional Grammar, 2001Co-Authors: Mary DalrympleAbstract:Presents an overview and introduction to Lexical Functional Grammar (LFG), a theory of the content and representation of different aspects of linguistic structure and the relations that hold between them. This book also presents a theory of semantics and the syntax-semantics interface.

fourth grade emergent bilinguals uses of Functional Grammar analysis to talk about text
Learning and Instruction, 2017Co-Authors: Carrie Symons, Annemarie Sullivan Palincsar, Mary J SchleppegrellAbstract:Abstract While decades of research on reading comprehension strategy instruction has yielded significant insights into the effective use of comprehension strategies, less is known about how students—in particular students who are learning English as an additional language—can leverage their knowledge of language to make meaning with text. This descriptive case study provides insight into the ways talk about language, using a Functional Grammar, supports a group of fourth-grade emergent bilinguals. Students construct coherent mental representations of text by attending to linguistic features that they had learned to identify during the preceding school year, using a semantically-based linguistic metalanguage from systemic Functional linguistics. Their connection of language forms and meanings in think-alouds and interviews suggests that Functional Grammar analysis holds promise as an instructional tool with which teachers can guide students’ attention to the central meanings in text.

Lexical-Functional Grammar: An Overview
Annual Review of Linguistics, 2020Co-Authors: Kersti BörjarsAbstract:Lexical-Functional Grammar (LFG) is a model for the analysis of language in which different types of linguistic information are represented in separate dimensions, each with its own formalism. Thes...

lexical Functional Grammar an introduction
2019Co-Authors: Kersti Börjars, Rachel Nordlinger, Louisa SadlerAbstract:A clear introduction to lexical-Functional Grammar (LFG), this outstanding textbook sets out a formal approach to the study of language using a step-by-step approach and rich language data. Data from English and a range of other languages is used to illustrate the main concepts, allowing those students not accustomed to working with cross-linguistic data to familiarize themselves with the theory, while also enabling those interested in how the theory can account for more challenging data sets to extend their learning. Exercises ranging from simple technical questions to analyses of a data set, as well as a further resources section with a literature review complete each chapter. The book aims to equip readers with the skills to analyze new data sets and to begin to engage with the primary LFG literature.
