Abstract

This study presents a semantic framework for analyzing all aspectual constructions in terms of the event state distinction, and describes the grammatical expression of aspectual meaning in terms of a theory of grammatical constructions. In this theory, grammatical constructions, like words, are conventionalized form-meaning pairs, which are best described not only with respect to their intrinsic semantic values, but also with respect to the functional oppositions in which they participate.

Abstract

Linguistic mismatch phenomena involve semiotic functions that attach to forms in defiance of grammatical design features. Noun phrases, when used as predicates, provide one example: how do predicate nominals correspond to our theories of what nouns mean? How do such phenomena challenge traditional conceptions of grammar? How do competing theories of the syntax-semantics interface stand up when confronted with mismatch phenomena? 'Mismatch' addresses these questions through the efforts of some of the most original thinkers in syntactic and semantic theory, exploring a wide variety of mismatch phenomena in a broad sampling of languages.

Abstract

"1.1 Linguistic and syntactic competence We language users believe that we 'know' a language, but the question is what we know when we know a language like English or Korean. It may mean that we know how to create natural English sentences like (1a), but not unnatural sentences like (1b).1 (1) a. We can't pay for health care benefits like this, but you can. b. *We can't keep paying for health care benefits like this, but you can keep.2 In the same way, speakers who know English may accept (2a) and (2c), but not (2b):3 (2) a. Frank sneezed. b. *Frank sneezed the napkin. c. Frank sneezed the napkin off the table. This implies that knowing a language means that (English) speakers have linguistic knowledge sufficient to distinguish between 'acceptable' and 'unacceptable' sentences. However, when speakers are asked to articulate what kind of knowledge allows them to make these distinctions, it is not easy for them to describe it. This knowledge of language, often called linguistic competence, is the ability to speak a language. Knowing one's native language requires neither skill nor talent, but it is nonetheless an accomplishment worthy of investigation"--
