1. In the spontaneous speech of agrammatic speakers, the
production of verbs is affected, regardless of the form in which they appear in a language. – This dissertation (Chapter 2)
2. Thai agrammatic speakers have restricted production of verbs, because these individuals find it difficult to express complex events using serial verb constructions. – This dissertation (Chapter 2) 3. In languages that use non-obligatory aspectual adverbs, reference to all time frames (past, present, future) is discourse-linked, making time reference difficult for agrammatic individuals with discourse linking impairments. – This dissertation (Chapter 3)
4. In Thai agrammatic speakers, reference to the future is affected because of its grammatical role as a modal. – This dissertation (Chapter 3)
5. Non-brain damaged individuals show different brain responses to time reference violations, depending on the linguistic means used to express time reference, be it the use of affixation, temporal adverbs or aspectual adverbs. – This dissertation (Chapter 4)
6. The violation of time reference realized through lexical means (i.e., lexical and aspectual adverbs) elicits an N400 effect, reflecting the semantic nature of the violation. – This dissertation (Chapter 4) 7. The reanalysis of a sentential / discourse time frame elicits a frontal P600. – This dissertation (Chapter 4)
8. We can know only that we know nothing. And that is the highest degree of human wisdom. –Leo Tolstoy, War and Peace
9. The cure for boredom is curiosity. –Dorothy Parker
10. Those who cannot dance, blame it on the flute and the drum. – Thai Proverb
