Scandinavian gender and pancake sentences : A reply to Hans-Olav Enger

Josefsson, Gunlög LU (2014) In Nordic Journal of Linguistics 37(3). p.431-449
Abstract
In a recent NJL article (Enger 2013), Hans-Olav Enger argues against some analyses of gender and ‘pancake sentences’, in particular against Josefsson (2009). In this short contribution, I will discuss what I take to be misunderstandings in Enger (2013). In addition I will discuss some data not included in Enger’s (2013) analysis, which I will show to be crucial for the comparison between the different analyses proposed.
