Category-free complement selection in causal adjunct phrases
In English there are a variety of causal adjunct phrases such as because of , as a result of , on account of and in spite of. It was reported recently that a new structure because X is thriving in colloquial registers including conversations and blogs. The complement X is not only restricted to nominals but also includes other lexical categories such as adjectives, adverbs and even verbs. This article delves into the history of this usage and its…
Comparative standards and the feasibility of conceptual expansion
Parallelism between targets in a comparative structure is not always respected in some comparative standards in Japanese that allow the conceptual expansion of their referents, e.g., Nihon-no jinkoo-wa kankoku-yori ooi (The population of Japan is larger than Korea). We would like to investigate the conditions under which conceptual expansion is permitted. In contrast to Japanese, the standard of comparison in English adheres to the constraint of …
On the conjoinability of affixal morphemes in English
We here examine the conjoinability of affixal morphemes in English, demonstrating that the strict correspondence between the morpheme boundaries and syllable boundaries, with the proper distribution of stress assignment, is the basic requirement for prefixes to stand alone in the position of conjuncts of coordinate constructions. They have to be word-like so as to be subjected to the syntactic operation of coordination, whose minimal target has b…
On the function and distribution of the modifiers respective and respectively
This paper deals with two cognate modifiers, respective and respectively . Despite the obvious fact that they belong to di Verent parts of speech, they have been considered to perform the same semantic function of mapping two sets of participants in a sentence, and of distributing the predicate of the sentence, in accordance with the mapping, to a number of propositions representing the subparts of the event described in that sentence. As regards…
