Semantics of Slavic anaphoric possessive determiners
Slavic possessive determiner SVOJ (and its plural form), meaning roughly his/her own (glosed by HOWN) can in addition to its bare form also be used in composition with other ordinary determiners. Such compositions form complex anaphoric possessive determiners (ADets), that is expressions which take CNs as arguments and form NPs denoting nominal anaphors. Thus one can have in various Slavic lang...
متن کاملThe Semantics of Determiners
The study of generalized quantifiers over the past 15 years has enriched enormously our understanding of natural language determiners (Dets). It has yielded answers to questions raised independently within generative grammar and it has provided us with new semantic generalizations, ones that were basically unformulable without the conceptual and technica apparatus of generalized quantifier theo...
متن کاملPossessive Pronouns as Determiners in Japanese-to-English Machine Translation
Possessive pronouns are used as determiners in English when no equivalent would be used in a Japanese sentence with the same meaning. This paper proposes a heuristic method of generating such possessive pronouns even when there is no equivalent in the Japanese. The method uses information about the use of possessive pronouns in English treated as a lexical property of nouns, in addition to cont...
متن کاملThe anaphoric semantics of partial control
PC has received considerable interest, at first from a syntactic perspective (cf. in particular the work of Landau), more recently also in semantics [2, 7, 9]. PC touches on important theoretical questions such as how the controller-controllee relation is established and what the denotation of a control complement is. Morever it raises new questions such as why there is no ‘superset control’ (c...
متن کاملAnaphoric Constraints and Dualities in the Semantics of Nominals
The grammatical constraints on anaphoric binding, known as binding principles, are observed to form a classical square of oppositions. These constraints are then analysed as the effect of phase quantifiers over reference markers in grammatical obliqueness hierarchies, and the resulting phase quantifiers are shown to be organised in a square of logical duality. The impact of this result on the d...
