has abstract
| - Caroline Heycock és una sintactista escocesa i professora de lingüística a la Universitat d'Edimburg. El 1991 es va doctorar a la Universitat de Pennsilvània amb una tesi titulada Layers of predication: The non-lexical syntax of clauses. És coneguda per la seva feina en l'àmbit de la sintaxi teòrica, amb especial referència a l'anglès, el feroès i les altres llengües germàniques, i al japonès. Els temes sobre els quals ha realitzat investigacions notables inclouen fenòmens de reconstrucció, equatives i altres construccions copulars, en particular oracions pseudoclivellades, la sintaxi i la semàntica de la conjunció nominal i el desgast sintàctic en la llengua materna dels aprenents avançats d'una segona llengua. El 2019 va ser coautora d'un treball que examinava la possible posició de les contraccions en l'anglès escocès (no confondre amb l'scots), centrant-se en l'ús d'unes "expressions de descoberta locativa" ("locative discovery expressions") en què els parlants poden pronunciar tant "there it's there" com "there its". Ha estat editora en cap del Journal of Linguistics, publicat per la Cambridge University Press per a l'Associació Lingüística de Gran Bretanya i actualment forma part del seu consell editorial. És membre de l'equip del projecte Scots Syntax Atlas. El juliol de 2019, Heycock va ser escollida membre (fellow) de l'Acadèmia Britànica . (ca)

Heycock received her PhD from the University of Pennsylvania in 1991, with a dissertation entitled Layers of predication: The non-lexical syntax of clauses. Heycock is known for her work in theoretical syntax, with particular reference to English, Faroese and the other Germanic languages, and to Japanese. Topics on which she has conducted notable research include reconstruction phenomena, equatives and other copular constructions, particularly pseudoclefts, the syntax and semantics of (especially) nominal conjunction, and syntactic attrition in the native language of advanced learners of a second language. In 2019 she was a co-author of a work examining the possible position of contractions in Scots English, focusing on the use of a "locative discovery expressions" in which speakers can utter both "there it's there" and "there its". She has been an editor-in-chief of the Journal of Linguistics, published by Cambridge University Press for the Linguistic Association of Great Britain and is currently on its editorial board.
