Cross - linguistic variation in temporal adjunct clauses
A particular meaning can be realized by morphosyntactically distinct expressions across languages. One of the challenges for cross-linguistic research is to account for convergence in meaning in light of morphosyntactic variation. This paper examines cross-linguistic variation in the distribution and interpretation of tense in temporal adjunct clauses (TACs, e.g. English John crossed the street...
متن کاملConstraints on the Generation of Adjunct Clauses
This paper presents an analysis of a family of particular English constructions, all of which roughly express "purpose". In particular we look at the purpose clause, rationale .clause, and infinitival relative clause. We (1) show that couching the analysis in a computational framework, specifically generation, provides a more satisfying account than analyses based strictly on descriptive lingui...
متن کاملNPI Licensing in Temporal Clauses
This paper offers a systematic approach to NPI licensing in temporal clauses based on a uniform analysis of temporal connectives as relations between times and relying on appropriate type shifting for compositional buildup. The quantificational force commonly associated with temporal connectives is attributed to the operators earliest and max operating on the temporal clause and effecting the n...
متن کاملThe Influence of Prosody and Ambiguity on English Relativization Strategies
We present evidence that, for English, ambiguity is an active factor in the choice of relativization strategy and that, in speech, prosody plays a role in resolution of ambiguity over the internal role of the relativized constituent. The evidence is based on (semi-)automatic analysis and comparison of automatically-parsed written and spoken portions of the British National Corpus (BNC, Leech, 1...
متن کاملRevisiting the Learned Clauses Database Reduction Strategies
In this paper, we revisit an important issue of CDCL-based SAT solvers, namely the learned clauses database management policies. Our motivation takes its source from a simple observation on the remarkable performances of both random and size-bounded reduction strategies. We first derive a simple reduction strategy, called Size-Bounded Randomized strategy (in short SBR), that combines maintaing ...
