- "It is clear that these data rule out simply assimilating swiping to preposition-stranding across the board, as early researchers did; the absence of swiping in Swedish, Icelandic, and Frisian (and for certain speakers of Norwegian, who nonetheless allow preposition-stranding in general) indicates that merely being able to strand a preposition is not a sufficient predictive criterion for swiping."
