ion). From this it follows that: (2) The elided or missing material here must be a VP meaning (or, LF), where the missing VP will contain an individual variable in object position. (3) It thus follows in turn that the antecedent must be some expression which has a VP-type of meaning (or, LF). (4) But on the surface, there is no full VP which can supply the missing meaning (or, LF). The only ful...

The paper argues that the variability of the uniqueness effects exhibited by Hindi and Romanian correlatives is due to their mixed referential and quantificational nature. The account involves an articulated notion of quantification, independently motivated by donkey anaphora and quantificational subordination and consisting of both (discourse) referential components and non-referential compone...

This document describes a sizable grammar of English written in the TAG formalism and implemented for use with the XTAG system. This report and the grammar described herein supersedes the TAG grammar described in [Abeill e et al., 1990]. The English grammar described in this report is based on the TAG formalism developed in [Joshi et al., 1975], which has been extended to include lexicalization...

Incremental processing is a promising way to improve the performance of natural language generation systems. It imposes speci c requirements upon the linearization process and its underlying representation formalism. In this work, we will discuss these requirements and present an extension of the TAG{formalism that has been developed and utilized for the incremental syntactic generator VM{GEN i...

The standard resource sensitive invariants of categorial grammar are not suited to prune search space in the presence of coordination. We propose a weaker variant of count invariancy in order to prune the search space for parsing coordinated sentences at a stage prior to proper parsing. This Coordinative Count Invariant is argued to be the strongest possible instrument to prune search space for...

Binding principles applied to Dutch reflexives are supplemented with optimality considerations and a general principle of linguistic economy to account for differences in reflexivization strategies of Dutch and English. Dutch SE-reflexives are optimally encoded coreference in contrast to the English ordinary bound pronouns they are translated to. Burzio's stated general dispreference for SE-ref...

Manning, C.D. and Sag, I. A. 1998 Argument Structure, Valence, and Binding Nordic Journal of Linguistics This paper develops within HPSG a model of grammar with two syntactic levels, valence lists and argument structure, at which sentences may have di erent representations: syntactically ergative and Western Austronesian languages are distinctive by allowing di erent prominence orderings betwee...
