An endangered marker. On the loss of Swedish att after kommer and some parallels in English
- 2007
-
In: Nordic Journal of English Studies (NJES). ; 6:1
-
Journal article (other academic/artistic)abstract
- The Swedish infinitive marker "att" is disappearing after "kommer", the major construction for indicating future time. "Kommer" is originally a main verb, but the loss of the infinitive marker of the second verb in the phrase gives it the chief characteristic of an auxiliary, which makes the proecess one of grammaticalization. Based on a survey among Swedish students it is shown that both the age of speakers/writers and the syntax of the sentence in question are crucial factors for the choice between "att" and omission.
