Appositive Relative Clauses, At-issueness, and Timing in Discourse
It is standardly assumed that there is a distinction between truth-conditional content (e.g. entailment) and non-truth-conditional content (e.g. presupposition and implicature).

They described the scene either to an addressee (Experiment 1) or without an addressee (Experiment 2). When an addressee was present in the task, participants u...

We report the results of a preliminary study attempting to identify ambiguous expressions in spoken language dialogues. In this study we developed methods for marking explicit ambiguity, and generalized previous proposals by Passonneau concerning a distance metric for anaphora to be used with the α coefficient to allow for ambiguous annotations.

Our results show that metaphoric nouns affect sentence comprehension to a greater extent than do metaphoric verbs. Thus, even though...
