Situation Economy

چکیده

This paper begins with the assumption that possible worlds and times are represented as situation pronouns in natural language (see Cresswell, 1990; Percus, 2000; Kusumoto, 2005; Keshet, 2008). For simplicity, situations are construed to be world-time pairs, and a predicate taking such a pair as an argument is evaluated in the world and the time specified. Researchers such as Percus (2000) have noted that such a system overgenerates. In this paper, I will explore a constraint on situation pronouns – the Intersective Predicate Generalization – based on and extending work by Renate Musan (1997). I propose an explanation for this generalization involving an economy principle, called Situation Economy.
