Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. Structuring Sense explores the difference between words however defined and structures however constructed. It sets out to demonstrate over three volumes, of which this is the first, that the explanation of linguistic competence should be shifted from lexical entry to syntactic structure, from memory of words to manipulation of rules. Its reformulation of how grammar and lexicon interact has profound implications for linguistic, philosophical, andpsychological theories about human mind and language.Hagit Borer departs from both language specific constructional approaches and lexicalist approaches to argue that universal hierarchicalstructures determine interpretation, and that language variation emerges from the morphological and phonological properties of inflectional material.In Name Only applies this radical approach to nominal structure. Integrating research in syntax, semantics, and morphology, the author argues that nominal structure is based on the syntactic realization of semantic notions such as classifier, quantity, and reference. In the process she seeks to do away with lexicalambiguity and type-shifting. Among the topics she considers are the interpretation of proper names, the mass-count distinction, the weak-strong interpretation of quantifiers, partitive and measure phrases, andthe structural representation of the definite article. In the process she explores inter-language variation through the properties of the morpho-phonological system. The languages discussed include English, Chinese, Italian, and Hebrew. Explores the difference between words however defined, and structures however constructed. This text sets out to demonstrate that the explanation of linguistic competence should be shifted from lexical entry to syntactic structure, and from memory of words to manipulation of rules.
