Syntactic Theory: A Formal Introduction — Ivan A. Sag, Thomas Wasow, and Emily M. Bender

Sag, Wasow, and Bender develop precise grammars whose predictions can be tested.

The book builds an account of central syntactic patterns through successive problems and analyses.

Lexical information and constraints help explain how grammatical structures are licensed.

Syntax is considered alongside meaning and evidence from language processing.

Exercises from multiple languages encourage readers to evaluate competing grammatical hypotheses.
