Sentence Periphery

Sentence Periphery is a syntactic domain denoting the hierarchical positions at the edges of a clause—typically the left (CP) and right periphery—distinguished by their role in hosting displaced elements such as topics, focus, and illocutionary features, thereby regulating discourse-related and pragmatic interfaces in cross-linguistic sentence structure.
