Résumé
Introduction
Turkish permits grammatical non-canonical word order while morphological case marking disambiguates thematic roles.
Methods
We examined comprehension accuracy and verb-locked event-related potentials (ERPs) to Turkish canonical subject-object-verb (SOV) and non-canonical object-subject-verb (OSV) sentences in adults (n = 67; 18-44 years) and children (n = 37; 4.3-9.7 years).
