Verbstellung im Deutschen und Französischen

The VisualGBX system is an efficient research tool for generatively oriented linguists, opening up new avenues in the work on theory development and evaluation. Here the potential of this CAD-based expert system is exemplified in connection with contrastive analyses on verb positioning in French and German (verb in second position, complex inversion etc.), with special reference to recent approaches to sentence structure. The procedure opens up an innovative (object-oriented) perspective on linguistic phenomena, drawing upon Chomsky's thinking on minimalism and locality in the framework of his Minimalist Program and generalizing it to form a design for information processing.
