Читать книгу Special Indefinites in Sentence and Discourse - Sofiana Lindemann - Страница 5

I would like to thank Klaus von Heusinger, who fostered my decision to become a linguist throughout the years of my studies at the University of Stuttgart. I am grateful for the fruitful and inspiring discussions we had.

I am dearly indebted to Elsi Kaiser, who patiently assisted me and provided insightful advice. During my stay at the Linguistics Department at the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, I was particularly impressed by her gift to inspire her students (including myself) and increase their appetite and knowledge in psycholinguistics.

Many thanks to my colleagues and friends at the Department of Linguistics at the University of Stuttgart, namely Regine Brandtner, Annika Deichsel, Cornelia Ebert, Ljudmila Geist, Dolgor Guntsetseg, Daniel Hole, Elena Karagjosova, Udo Klein, Elisabeth Löbel, Edgar Onea and Johannes Wespel. I am grateful to have been given the chance to work in such a friendly, warm and international environment.

I am thankful for the financial support by a grant of the Romanian Ministry of Research and Innovation, CNCS-UEFISCDI, project number PN-III-P1-1.1-TE-2016-1241, within PNCDI III.

This work was supported in part by the collaborative research center SFB 732 “Incremental Specification in Context” funded by the German Science Foundation (DFG).

My family and friends provided advice and encouragement at all hours and in all matters from lesser or greater distance. Thank you for your unconditioned support.
