Abstract
The controversy over procedural modularity has subsided significantly with the crisis of generative grammar and the emergence and rapid rise of holistic cognitive linguistics. However, the current findings in the field of sentence perception (the so-called German paradigm), which are mainly provided for the German language, throw a new light on this question. The paper deals with the temporal dimension of sentence comprehension with special attention paid to the underdetermination of the concept of procedural module as well as to the premature interpretation of some experimental findings as evidence against/for the thesis of procedural modularity.
