Categorial Grammar
The paper is a review article comparing a number of approaches to natural language syntax and semantics that have been developed using categorial frameworks. It distinguishes two related but distinct varieties of categorial theory, one related to Natural Deduction systems and the axiomatic calculi of Lambek, and another which involves more specialized combinatory operations.

متن کاملConstraint-Based Categorial Grammar
We propose a generalization of Categorial Grammar in which lexical categories are defined by means of recursive constraints. In particular, the introduction of relational constraints allows one to capture the effects of (recursive) lexical rules in a computationally attractive manner. We illustrate the linguistic merits of the new approach by showing how it accounts for the syntax of Dutch cros...
متن کاملCategorial Minimalist Grammar
1. Convergence at first sight, and differences in a second time From the early days of the minimalist program of Chomsky (1993), a convergence with categorial grammars was noticed by Ep-stein and Berwick (1995). The striking similarity lies in the merge operation, which looks like the application rule of the AB grammars. In both cases, word order is a consequence of the consumption rules but in...
متن کاملClosed Categories and Categorial Grammar
Inspired by Lambek's work on categorial grammar, we examine the proposal that the theory of biclosed monoidal categories can serve as a foundation for a formal theory of natural language. The emphasis throughout is on the derivation of the axioms for these categories from linguistic intuitions. When Montague's principle that there is a homomorphism between syntax and semantics is reened to the ...
متن کاملSwitch - Reference and Categorial Grammar
Switch-Reference (SR) is a phenomenon in which the coreferentiality of two (or more) subjects in a complex sentence is indicated by a morphological device. Thus, in the English sentences in ( 1), there is no morphological distinction betv ... ·een (a) and (b) regardless of the difference in interpretation. On the other hand, Mojave (Vuman) indicates such a distinction by a difference in suffixe...
