Syntax and Morphology in Language Attrition: A Study of Five Bilingual Expatriate Swedes.
Hakansson, Gisela
International Journal of Applied Linguistics, v5 n2 p153-71 1995
Explores the attrition of different aspects of Swedish grammar. Empirical data from bilingual expatriate students are compared to data from monolingual Swedish aphasic patients. The students' noun phrase morphology had undergone attrition, but not their word order. For the aphasics, word order attrition was combined with unaffected noun phrase morphology.
