On the arguments for analyzing adverbs as PPs
This paper argues that adverbs in English do not constitute a separate lexical class, neither are they positional variants of a single category together with adjectives, but rather they can and should be assimilated to PPs. In particular, the paper provides evidence from the complement-taking capacities of adverbs that the morpheme -ly is not a suffix but a nominal root, which forms the basis of the analysis of adverbs as PPs. Furthermore, it sho…
Linearization of Complex Modifiers
In this article, we argue that the Head-Final Filter (HFF) in its current formulation is not only left theoretically unexplained, but is also empirically incorrect. For one, languages like Greek or Russian are not subject to it and can have material intervene between prenominal adjectives and modified nouns. In addition, a number of languages, such as Basque and Chácobo, display mirror-HFF effects. These languages bar material intervening between…
On the Categorial Status of Adverbs
This paper is concerned with the question of what adverbs in English are as a category. It argues that English adverbs are not positional variants of a single category together with adjectives but also do not constitute a separate lexical category on their own, as is commonly assumed. Instead, this paper advocates the position that adverbs can and should be assimilated with PPs and offers a comprehensive presentation of this view. In particular, …
Quantification in event semantics
The goal of this paper is to evaluate two approaches to quantification in event semantics,namely the analysis of quantificational DPs in terms of generalized quantifiers andthe analysis proposed in Schein (1993) according to which quantifiers over individuals containan existential quantifier over sub-events in their scope. Both analyses capture the fact that theevent quantifier always takes scope under quantifiers over individuals (the Event Type…
