Disjunction and Symmetry
This paper concerns what might be called the variably bad behavior of the word or. As is well known, there are a variety of environments in which the word or misbehaves – misbehaves, in the sense that it gives rise to interpretations which are not expected given the standard analysis of this word as, roughly, set union. One of these environments is the scope of a modal. This case has received a...
متن کاملA Computational Approach to Pronominal Anaphora, One- Anaphora and Surface Count Anaphora
This paper is the continuation of Ferrández [5][4] in which we have developed a computational system in Prolog (Slot Unification Parser or SUP) that includes a new grammatical formalism (Slot Unification Grammar or SUG). In this work, we are going to deal with several kinds of anaphora both in restricted and unrestricted texts: pronominal anaphora, surface count anaphora and one-anaphora. We on...
متن کاملTruthmakers and the Disjunction Thesis
The correspondence theory of truth has experienced something of a revival recently in the form of the Truthmaker Axiom: whatever is true, something makes it true. We consider various postulates which have been proposed to characterize truthmaking, in particular, the Disjunction Thesis (DT), that whatever makes a disjunction true must make one or other disjunct true. In conjunction with certain ...
متن کاملAnaphora resolution and reambiguation∗
Starting off from common assumptions on the relationship between ambiguity and the process of disambiguation with regard to the technique of underspecification, we argue that disambiugation may be viewed as non-monotonic in nature in certain cases involving anaphora resolution. We then go on to present a formal analysis framed in a coupling of Discourse Representation Theory and Constraint Logi...
متن کاملAnaphora and Discourse Structure
We argue in this paper that many common adverbial phrases generally taken to signal a discourse relation between syntactically connected units within discourse structure, instead work anaphorically to contribute relational meaning, with only indirect dependence on discourse structure. This allows a simpler discourse structure to provide scaffolding for compositional semantics, and reveals multi...
