An attempt will be made to clear up the ambiguous status of the segment that agrees with the past participle of these verbs to determine whether this segment functions as a direct object (DO) or as any other complement.

本研究探讨了法语中所谓的计量动词的分词一致的问题。我们将试图澄清达成协议的部分的模糊状态，以确定它是真实对象(COD)还是其他类型的补充。根据一项针对语言学院法语和西班牙语学生的语言调查所获得的数据，我们将试图找出促使我们的学生尊重或违反与have (Vaux Av)的动词的过去分词协议的原因。我们的结果将证实，现有的协议规则非常需要简化，因为它们是人为的，不透明的，最后，它们缺乏坚实的语法基础。这篇论文的目的是研究法语中量度动词的过去分词协议。An试探性will be made to clear up the模糊不清(status of the线段that with the past participle) 1992 of these verbs to是否成型this as a direct功能部分object (DO as any other黄金)的补充。基于on the data馏分进行语言调查了at the Philology学院and伯爵在西班牙学生French and保留的理由,we will try to clarify the why our学生语法violate黄金meet the rules of the agreement of the past participle of these度量verbs with the辅助的产生。我们的结果将证实有必要简化这些匹配规则，因为它们既人为又不透明，而且在许多情况下，它们缺乏一个可靠的语法基础。

The indefinite plural article uns in medieval French conjoins the features of unity and plurality. Because of its grammatical nature, uns is not restricted to lexical plurals, but combines in a productive way to nouns having a regular singular-plural alternation in order to create a complex referent not reducible to the sum of its components. Moreover, uns expresses not only quantitative unity ‘one single N’, but also qualitative unity ‘one same N’ and is not linked to lexical plurality in the latter case. Since its features of unity and plurality are considered as incompatible, plural indefinite articles have been assumed to emerge in an advanced stage of grammaticalization, when the numeral source meaning is bleached out, and to be not viable over time. Both hypotheses were invalidated in the present study.

Mass superordinates such as clothing, clothes and furniture form a distinct and peculiar class of nouns in languages with an obligatory singular/plural distinction. These nouns often have pluralia-tantum variants as well as count equivalents – both within one linguistic system as well as cross-linguistically. This study is a follow-up of my earlier analysis of Romance superordinates ( Mihatsch, 2006 ). The data are taken from English, German, French and Spanish in order to demonstrate the striking cross-linguistic pattern. The highly variable Spanish ropa(s) ‘clothing/clothes’ is analysed in greater detail. I argue that in most cases the apparently unsystematic synchronic variants arise from partly unidirectional diachronic changes, namely a lexicalisation process leading from collective nouns to object mass nouns, often followed by the appearance of plural forms, which oscillate between a lexical and an inflectional plural.

The semantic analysis of complex noun phrases (NP) is usually determined by the nominal nucleus. Adjectives and determiners complement the noun by adding pieces of information or changing the size of the expanded NP. This paper emphasizes nominal constructions in French where the semantic nucleus must be reassigned to units which do not operate as a syntactic nucleus of NPs.

The study then reviews multiple aspects of quantifying and qualifying constructions in NPs, with particular consideration of metaphors.

This study focuses on deverbal nominals occurring mostly in the plural, in order to assess their status as lexical plurals ( Acquaviva, 2008 ). Our study, based on data from the FrWac, shows that the majority of plural uses does not imply lexical plurality. However, when this phenomenon is observed for event-denoting nominals, it relies either on the performative character of the noun, which behaves as a plurale tantum, or on internal pluractionality. When the nouns do not refer to events, lexical plurality depends on the fact that the entities referred to are conceived as weakly individuated.
本研究的目的是确定这类名词是否存在词汇复数(如Acquaviva, 2008)。我们通过对FrWac语料库的研究表明，大多数复数用法并不总是与这个因素有关。然而，当词汇复数被证明时，它们与几个参数有关;当名称具有表演性时，它们可以作为复数tantum。对于指定事件的名称，内部的多元性，如果没有正式标记，是一个决定因素。对于那些没有指定它们的人来说，词汇的多元性与这样一个事实有关，就像一般情况一样，名称指的是一组不太独立的实体。本研究集中在主要以复数形式出现的非复数名词上，以评估它们作为词汇复数的地位(Acquaviva, 2008)。我们的研究，基于FrWac的数据，表明大多数复数用法并不意味着词汇复数。野孩,is when this phenomenon观察for event-denoting nominals performative、标准流程,it on the character of the noun), which身体as a多元的,但是国内pluractionality。当名词不涉及事件时，词汇复数依赖于这样一个事实，即所涉及的实体被认为是弱的个体。

The purpose of this article is to consider syntactic and semantic properties of frozen predicates Prep N in Polish, which may express either a state or a property of the subject. Some of them correspond to adjectival interrogative pronouns, while others correspond rather to an adverbial interrogation. We discuss to what extent these and other syntactic features reflect the notional features, defined as a property or as a state and if they justify the division between the adjectival Prep N and the adverbial Prep N. Our analysis is based on Polish data but it also contains references to other languages: French, Korean, English. More general issues are also discussed in this paper: identification of the categories called parts of speech and transfer between categories (noun vs. adjective vs. adverbe).

This article is about the semantics of iterative statements, expressing repetition in time of a type-eventuality. With these statements are associated frequency properties, quantified by iterative adverbs (often, sometimes, sporadically, n times out of p…). Our purpose is to design a formal representation, with a method allowing to compute it from the text. The interpretation of an iterative statement closely relies on its information structure so that we first study precisely the topic-focus partition for a significant range of configurations. In the formal model, the occurrences of iterative eventualities or circumstants are represented by sequences of intervals. The temporal semantic of a sentence is then formalised as an instanciation of generic formulas using two types of generalised quantifiers.

This paper describes, and presents a formal evaluation of, the Ontological Semantic approach to automatically analyzing multiword expressions. It shows how multiword expressions can be lexically recorded and processed in the same way as compositional argument-taking words. It suggests that the component modeling strategies are psychologically plausible and hold promise for supporting the development of sophisticated, language-endowed intelligent agents.
