Register-Based Subject Omission in English and its Implication for the Syntax of Adjuncts by Liliane Haegeman

“…It is proposed that the observed argument/adjunct asymmetry observed in relation to subject omission comes about due to the fact that what at first sight appear to be sentence-initial adjuncts are in fact inserted in a structural position below the canonical subject position which hosts the deleted subject. …”

Is Word Order Responsive to Morphology? Disentangling Cause and Effect in Morphosyntactic Change in Five Western European Languages by Julie Nijs, Freek Van de Velde, Hubert Cuyckens

“…Our findings indicate that changes in morphological complexity are statistically more likely to cause shifts in word order rigidity than vice versa. The causal asymmetry is robustly borne out in Dutch and German, though waveringly in English, as well as in French and Italian. …”
