The notion of ‘interface’ has become central in grammatical theory (for instance, in Chomsky’s Minimalist Program) and in linguisticpractice:workontheinterfacesbetweensyntaxandsemantics,syntaxand morphology, phonology and phonetics, etc., has led to a deeper understanding of particularlinguisticphenomenaandofthearchitectureofthelinguisticcomponent ofthemind/brain. The series covers interfaces between core components of grammar, includ- ing syntax/morphology, syntax/semantics, syntax/phonology, syntax/pragmatics, morphology/phonology,phonology/phonetics,phonetics/speechprocessing,seman- tics/pragmatics,andintonation/discoursestructure,aswellasissuesinthewaythat thesystemsofgrammarinvolvingtheseinterfaceareasareacquiredanddeployedin use(includinglanguageacquisition,languagedysfunction,andlanguageprocessing).
