Syntactic complexity has always been a matter of intense investigation in formal linguistics. Since complex syntax is clearly evidenced by sentential embedding and since embedding of one clause/phrase in another is taken to signal recursivity of the grammar, the capacity of computing syntactic complexity is of central interest to the recent hypothesis that syntactic recursion is the defining property of natural language. In the light of more recent claims according to which complex syntax is not a universal property of all living languages, the issue of how to detect and define syntactic complexity has been revived with a combination of classical and new arguments. This volume contains contributions about the formal complexity of natural language, about specific issues of clausal embedding, and about syntactic complexity in terms of grammar-external interfaces in the domain of language acquisition.

This article deals with phonological awareness which is explicit or conscious knowledge of the phonological structure that speakers of a language exhibit. It seeks to establish whether biliterate speakers of Telugu and English who are exposed to an alphabetic writing system and a semi-syllabic writing system are able to manipulate words in terms of syllables and phonemes. This experimental study involves 30 native speakers of Telugu who also know English. The results show that the two languages in question are not treated alike by the speakers, although there is some evidence of transference from one language to another. It is apparent in many cases that rather than the sounds, the item that is processed mentally is a visual representation of the word. Moreover, each language seems to be processed in its own script although there is also evidence to show that the native language is more dominant and the second language is processed in the script of the native language.
