The well-formedness of Which painting did you see? indicates that did you see is a well-formed expression containing a gap of type np, and the well-formedness of Which painting did you see a photograph of? and Which painting did you see a copy of? suggests (in a way consistent with the thesis) that a photograph of and a copy of are well-formed np's containing np gaps. Accordingly, the thesis, if correct, requires that Which painting did you see a copy of a photograph of? also be well-formed, as indeed it is.

Tlms There are two basic strategies to deal with these issues. The first is to propose general grammatical rules (selectively chosen by each language) which generate exactly the grammatical examples and fail to generate the ungrammatical examples; the second is to propose general grammatical principles which generate all the good examples and couple these principles wih constraints (selectively chosen by each language) which weed out particular cases. We call the first strategy 'constructive' and the second 'co-constructive'. There have been rnany co-constructive proposals to account for the above phenomena: we rnention here only [15, 16, 1, 2] .

"text": "We work in the framework of multi-modal grammatical logic [10, 11, 4, 9, 14, 12] , a framework we describe here only in enough depth to support the goals of this paper. F'rom this perspective, the problem of grammatical cornposition, within and across such different dimensions of linguistic structure, is regarded as an inference problem: the component pieces of a complex linguistic structure are taken tobe the premisses of a deductive problem, and its global structure to be a conclusion deducible from these premisses in a system of grammatical inference. Thus, grammaticality is identified with validity within this system. Moreover, the formal system characterizing validity offers a natural model, in the style of denotational semantics for programming languages [17J, of the cognitive computation that must be assumed to provide the basis for real-time understanding of i;unning speech. 2 Thus the logical methods described here are not introduced in a blind search for formal rigor; on the contrary, they are introduced because they provide an armentarium of subtle and suitable tools and methods tliat allow us to probe the properties of grammatical reasoning.", |

Namely, they exhibit a much more subtle control of inference than the all or nothing choice of structural rules allows. For example, individual languages often exhibit varying sensitivity to order. Japanese and Korean, for example, are strict about the position of the tensed verb in a clause but not strict about the position of the arguments preceding the verb. This suggests a richer deductive system, one based on multiple modes of combination. 3 Each mode has a fixed arity, an associated product operator of that arity and an irnplication for each argument position, satisfying the adjointness laws. Each mode is associated with a set of structural rules. However, something new arises as weil: structural postulates involving more than one mode.", |
