Subject: B. A. Hockey,Heather Mateyak Determining Determiner Sequencing: A Syntactic Analysis for English

Description: this paper is implemented as part of a Feature-Based, Lexicalized Tree Adjoining Grammar (FB-LTAG) for English (Doran et al., 1994, Joshi et al., 1975, Schabes, 1990). A strictly descriptive account of determiner ordering (e.g. Quirk et al., 1985) is to divide determiners into sub-categories (e.g. predeterminer, determiner, postdeterminer). As an example, Quirk et al classify all as a "predeterminer ", what as a "determiner" and no as a "postdeterminer" allowing the ungrammatical sequence al l what no. Clearly in allowing such ungrammatical sequences, this type of approach is inadequate even as a description. This is not a result of errors in this particular classification; in fact, we feel that any attempt to describe the determiner ordering data by means of grouping determiners in classes and providing rules for the ordering of these groups will be too coarse or far too specific in its divisions and will fail to elegantly capture the more subtle distinctions among particular determiners. The necessary distinctions are modeled very naturally in a lexicalized grammar formalism such as FB-LTAG in which pieces of syntactic structure and features representing linguistic properties are associated with individual lexical items, thus allowing an account of much finer and if necessary, idiosyncratic variation. In our account of determiner sequencing, there is a set of nine semanticallybased syntactic features that form the core of the system. Each determiner carries with it a set of feature values that represent its properties, and a set of values for the properties of any determiners it may modify. These features also play a crucial role in deciding which determiners can participate in constructions such as the number system, genitives, and partitives, as well as which determ...
