Feature-based Approaches to Exceptional Cases in Russian

Description

We develop an explicit model of an exceptional part of Russian word structure, namely the second locative and genitive cases which only occur in the singular. This enables us to answer questions about how the categories of number and case are related and has wider implications for a typology of human languages
