Abstract:
In language typology, explanations of implicational universals have mainly been proposed based on the
synchronic distribution of the relevant grammatical phenomena, not the actual diachronic processes that give rise to this
distribution in individual languages. The paper shows
that many such processes do not provide evidence for the postulated
dependencies between
grammatical phenomena, and suggest alternative ways to look at
implicational universals in general.
