An Inquiry into Existential Constructions
Existential constructions play an important role in the development of Generative Grammar. Their special natures urge linguists to pay painstaking effort to give them a unified account. At first we have a brief review of the relevant study of these constructions and examine their strong points and weakness. On the basis of their study, we assume that in existential constructions of SVO language...
متن کاملA Gradient Grammar Approach to Concord Variation in Existential there+be Constructions
‘Gradient grammar’ (Bresnan & Hay 2006) refers to statistical theories of language competence. A number of studies (Bod et al. 2003, Bresnan et al. 2005, Gries 2007, O’Connor et al. 2004, Snider & Zaenen 2006, Wasow & Arnold 2005, among others) have explored such probabilistic variation where speakers choose among grammatical options (dative and genitive alternations, complementizer optionality...
متن کاملA Gradient Grammar Approach to Concord Variation in Existential There+Be Constructions
English existential there+be constructions (ETB, as coined in Crawford 2005, e.g., Waiter, there’s a fly in my soup) are well known to exhibit variable concord (e.g., There’s lots of stars out tonight; There are lots of stars out tonight). Existing analyses either dismiss this observed lack of consistent ETB verb agreement as un-analyzable or explain it as the product of more general verb agree...
متن کاملQuery Patterns for Existential Rules
In this paper we study query answering over ontologies expressed in Datalog+/–, i.e., datalog with existential variables in rule heads. Differently from previous proposals, we focus on subclasses of unions of conjunctive queries (UCQs), rather than on the whole class of UCQs. To identify subclasses of UCQs, we introduce the notion of conjunctive query pattern. Given a class of queries Q express...
