This paper concerns connections between Actuality Entailments (AEs), negation, and Free Choice inferences (FC). The main empirical foci of the paper are (i) that negated AElicensers entail the negation of the AE, and (ii) that AE-licensers do not give rise to FC inferences when they embed disjunctions. I derive challenges from the first finding to theories of AEs, and offer in conclusion a stipulative revision of Homer’s (2011) aspect-shift account of them. I then derive challenges from the second finding to theories of FC. I note first the consequences of the finding to implicature-theories of FC, where the first finding plays a crucial role, and discuss the assumptions needed to explain the AE/FC interaction. I also discuss how the interaction challenges theories of FC that derive the inference from the composition of modals with disjunctive prejacents.
期刊介绍：
Journal of Biomedical Semantics addresses issues of semantic enrichment and semantic processing in the biomedical domain. The scope of the journal covers two main areas:
Infrastructure for biomedical semantics: focusing on semantic resources and repositories, meta-data management and resource description, knowledge representation and semantic frameworks, the Biomedical Semantic Web, and semantic interoperability.
Semantic mining, annotation, and analysis: focusing on approaches and applications of semantic resources; and tools for investigation, reasoning, prediction, and discoveries in biomedicine.
