Syntactic Affixation and Performance Structures
Functional elements (determiners, complementizers, modals, degree words) are in many ways the syntactic analogues of affixes in morphology. Typically, functional elements are bound elements. Phonologically, they are clitics: syntactically, they are unable to appear without an associated thematic element (noun, verb, adjective). I would like to extend the analogy by showing that functional eleme...
متن کاملSyntactic Structures and Code Parameters
We assign binary and ternary error-correcting codes to the data of syntactic structures of world languages and we study the distribution of code points in the space of code parameters. We show that, while most codes populate the lower region approximating a superposition of Thomae functions, there is a substantial presence of codes above the Gilbert–Varshamov bound and even above the asymptotic...
متن کاملMeanings via Syntactic Structures
Chomsky (1957) o ered prescient suggestions about how to formulate theories of understanding for the spoken languages that human children can naturally acquire. We can view his proposal as a prolegomenon to a theory of meaning that combines a layered theory of syntax with an account of how humans can naturally use expressions in acts of referring, asserting, querying, and so on; cp. Austin (196...
متن کاملPassive Syntactic Structures
ing away from terminology, these quotes straightforwardly paraphrase a syntactic passive relation between a direct object and a subject. The import of their findings is thus: the semantic role of the subject of a passive adjective is always that of the corresponding verb's deep direct object. This is exactly the conclusion that the passive sub-case of Move NP derives passive adjectives. 7.2. A ...
متن کاملSyntactic Structures in Graphics
Building upon the existing literature, we are suggesting to regard the building blocks of all graphics as falling into three main categories: a) the graphic objects that are shown (e.g., a dot, a pictogram, an arrow), b) the meaningful graphic spaces into which these objects are arranged (e.g., a geographic coordinate system, a timeline), and c) the graphic properties of these objects (e.g., th...
