ARCHITECTURE OF INFORMATION STRUCTURE: IMPLICATIONS FROM THE T-MODEL ON THE REALISATION ASPECTS OF TOPIC AND FOCUS USING EXAMPLES FROM MODERN STANDARD ARABIC, ENGLISH AND TURKISH LANGUAGES
The placement of information structure seems to be controversial when approached with reference to T-model architecture of grammar and have debatable theoretical determinations. These include but not limited to: 1) the grammar of the information structure is not considered as an autonomous component; 2) how linguistically the information structure units (in various languages) could bring problems when coding units in the grammatical components; 3) the various aspects of contrastive focus and presentational focus, and how they are realised in (Standard) Arabic, English and Turkish yet (French); and 4) scrambling (free word order) and information structure relationship with illustrations from these mentioned languages.
