ABSTRACT
This chapter reveals that in syntactic encoding subprocesses work autonomously without conscious supervision, which ensures that processing can proceed parallel and automatically. The processing components work with their characteristic input. S-procedure builds the syntactic structure of the sentence and calls on the word order rules to arrange the processed constituents in appropriate order. The syntactic information of a lemma includes its syntactic category diacritic parameters such as gender, singularity, transitivity, and so on, and specifications concerning obligatory and possible complements. Psycholinguistic investigation of the syntactic processes involved in code-switching is also imminent. In monolingual models, all nouns of a given gender are connected to gender nodes that specify gender; in other words, there is one abstract gender node for each gender. In some languages certain phonological features such as the last phoneme of the word often mark a particular gender. In L1 production, grammatical gender is the lexico-syntactic property of nouns, which is looked up when the noun is produced.
