Processing of non-canonical word orders in (in)felicitous contexts: evidence from event-related brain potentials

In many languages with flexible word orders, canonical word order has a processing advantage over non-canonical word orders. This observation suggests that it is more costly for the parser to represent syntactically complex sentences. Alternatively, this phenomenon may relate to pragmatic factors be...
