Determinants of event type in Persian complex predicates
In this paper we analyse the interdependence of Persian nonverbal (NV) element and the light verb (LV) in determining the syntactic properties, the event structure, and the alternation possibilities of the entire complex predicate (CP) and we argue that these properties provide strong evidence against a Lexicalist approach to such phenomena. Further we show how these facts may be naturally acco...
متن کاملSplit complex predicates in Persian
Complex predicates, or compound verbs, constitute a major portion of verbal forms in the Persian language. They are normally formed using a noun, adjective, preposition, or prepositional phrase, followed by a light verb. Unlike many other languages that employ such constructions, Persian allows the two components to become separated. This paper will investigate where complex predicates syntacti...
متن کاملComposite Event Structures and Complex Predicates
RECENT STUDIES ON COMPLEX PREDICATES, SUCH AS BAKER’S (1988) THEORY OF INCORPORATION AND LI’S (1990) FEATURE PERCOLATION ACCOUNT, INVOLVE SYNTACTIC MANIPULATIONS BASED ON HEADED STRUCTURES. THIS PAPER PROPOSES A RADICALLY DIFFERENT APPROACH WHERE COMPLEX PREDICATE FORMATION IS RESOLVED MORPHOLEXICALLY WITH MAPPING BASED ON PROTOTYPICAL ARGUMENT TEMPLATES. OUR STUDY GIVES A MORE SATISFACTORY ACC...
متن کاملThe Interlanguage of Persian Learners of Italian: a Focus on Complex Predicates
This paper aims at investigating the acquisition of Italian complex predicates by native speakers of Persian. Complex predication is not as pervasive a phenomenon in Italian as it is in Persian. Yet Italian native speakers use complex predicates productively; spontaneous data show that Persian learners of Italian seem to be perfectly aware of Italian complex predicates and use this familiar fea...
متن کاملNEEL+: Supporting Predicates for Nested Complex Event Processing
Complex event processing (CEP) has become increasingly important in modern applications, ranging from supply chain management for RFID tracking to real-time intrusion detection. These monitoring applications must detect complex event pattern sequences in event streams. However, the state-of-art in the CEP literature such as SASE, ZStream or Cayuga either do not support the specification of nest...
