The role of meaning in past-tense inflection: evidence from polysemy and denominal derivation.
Although English verbs can be either regular (walk-walked) or irregular (sing-sang), "denominal verbs" that are derived from nouns, such as the use of the verb ring derived from the noun a ring, take the regular form even if they are homophonous with an existing irregular verb: The soldiers ringed the city rather than *The soldiers rang the city.

متن کاملRemarks on Denominal Verbs
Word meaning confronts us, as acutely as anything in syntax, with what Chomsky has called Plato’s problem. We know far more about the meaning of almost any word than we could have learned just from our exposure to uses of it.

We show how the analysis of Sadler and Nordlinger (2006) for generic-specific constructions forms through nominal juxtaposition can be extended to account for incorporated generic-specific constructions also. In this a...
