Abstract Whether you love them or hate them, cats leave no one indifferent. The same is true of biological invasions, as this species is invasive on numerous islands and several continents, and is often described as one of the worst invasive alien …

Abstract A sober, reasoned list of what we need to make the most of Ebla texts, including new working tools (traditional and digital) and young researchers capable of a holistic approach. The question of full publication and open access. Minimum …

Abstract Language acquisition is a concerted action of innate language acquisition mechanisms that are neurologically wired, and of language input. Language input has to arrive during a time window called "the critical period for first language …

Abstract Certain properties are systematically observed across all languages   : the unlimited nature of structures, hierarchical organization, displacement and so on. A central aim of General Linguistics is to list these universal properties precisely, …
