summary
|
This squib revisits the arguments from Bayer's 2000 article 'Basic order: a significant difference between
English VO and German OV' (relating certain opacity phenomena to the VO vs. OV basic order distinction), and
shows that Dutch, being OV like German, nevertheless sides with English on most points raised by Bayer.
