Description

Explore the complex relationship between syntax and semantics in this scholarly work from Routledge. Projecting the Adjective examines how gradable adjectives like bright, dense, and short function as measure functions. By linking objects to abstract representations of measurement, such as scales and degrees, this volume provides a foundation for understanding the linguistic properties of gradable adjectives. This text offers detailed analysis of the syntactic distribution of adjectives and the scopal characteristics of comparatives. It also addresses the empirical effects of adjectival polarity. Part of the Outstanding Dissertations in Linguistics series, this book serves as a specialized resource for students and professionals studying language structure and semantic theory.
