Analysis demonstrates interactions between dynamic syntax and type theory in language processing, suggesting improvements in formal analyses and predictions.
This paper presents a recasting of key aspects of dynamic syntax (DS) in a theory of types with records (TTR), concentrating on the incremental processing of speech events as they unfold and viewed in terms of classifying these events in terms of grammatical types and making predictions about future types that will be realized as the speech event progresses. TTR, like DS, attempts to provide formal analyses of language in terms of a theory of action which is related to cognitive processes. It therefore seems appropriate to explore one in terms of the other in hopes of revealing how the two theories may interact with and contribute to each other.
