The Kaŋ Verbal Form in Basse Mandinka – Structure and Meaning
The present article rectifies a noticeable lacuna in the analysis of the Mandinka verbal system and offers a detailed discussion of the meaning of the KAŊ locution (i.e. of the analytical expression be + infinitive + kaŋ) as well as a presentation of its most relevant structural properties. First, the author demonstrates that there are no structural or contextual restrictions on the use of the ...
متن کاملAssigning Meaning to Form
Complex critical systems need to be formally described and analysed (i.e., engineered). Many different formal methods have been developed for analysing almost all aspects of these systems and in certain cases even synthesising parts of these systems themselves through, e.g., controller synthesis. In many cases however, it is not at all obvious what the results of the tools developed for these m...

This thesis is two fold. The first part deals with an existence proof of a formal algorithm that takes a narrative discourse and returns its semantic representation in the Event Calculus (EC from now on) [19]. This algorithm uses Discourse Representation Theory, and takes on the form of a translation from Discourse Representation Structures to Scenarios and Integrity Constraints in EC. The seco...
