Exclamatives are specific syntactic constructions conventionally associated
with the expressive illocutionary force (e.g., What a house I saw!). They are opposed to exclamations
that do not have distinctive syntax (I saw the house!). The questionnaire is designed to collect
natural linguistic data of (both unsubordinated and subordinated) exclamatives in genealogically related and
unrelated languages.
