Enduring constraints on grammar revealed by Bayesian spatiophylogenetic analyses - Nature Human Behaviour Despite their great diversity, human languages are shaped by recurring grammatical universals. Verkerk et al. show that about one-third of the proposed universals hold cross-linguistically through analyses of the Grambank database.

New study using the #GramBank database finds that about 1/3 of 191 proposed grammatical universals hold across languages @verkerk.bsky.social

Grambank Comparator – Keras Saryan

Very cool resource created by Keras Saryan today to augment @quothalinguist.bsky.social's #GramBank #conlang resource. If you upload your GramBank spreadsheet to this site it will compare it to natlangs in the GramBank database to gauge their similarity!
