View source for Serialization (i.e. word order)

{{Stub}}
In syntax, the term '''serialization''' is sometimes used as a synonym of [[constituent order]].

===Comments===
A widely cited work that employs this term is Bartsch & Vennemann (1972), who postulate a "principle of natural serialization". But the term is also used in recent generative syntax, e.g. Haider (2000:135): "The VP-internal basic serialization patterns of non-verbal elements are cross-grammatically invariant."
