| ==== New Feature Geometry ====
| |
|
| |
|
| The geometry of the feature structures of Ginzburg and Sag (from here on simply GS) differs slightly from that of Pollard and Sag (1994). Here is the general structure of a sign:

| | === Week 2 === |
| | |
| We find the following differences from the earlier feature geometry:
| |
| | |
| # Instead of a SUBCAT list, there is now an ARG-ST. Only signs of type ''word'' have this list-valued attribute. Like SUBCAT, it contains all the syntactic arguments of a word. Unlike SUBCAT, this list is not used for head-driven phrase formation, however! It is used, among others, for the Binding Theory.
| |
| # As part of the ''category'' information of the sign, we now find the 3 valence attributes SUBJ, SPR, and COMPS. Together with combinatorial schemas, they drive phrase formation from the information in the head daughter. They have the following properties:
| |
| * SUBJ: the list contains 0-1 ''synsem'' objects
| |
| * SPR: the list contains 0-1 ''synsem'' object
| |
| * Comps: the list contains 0-3 ''synsem'' objects
| |

| ==== Some Words in the New Feature Geometry ====

|

|
| |
| ==== Phrases ====
| |
|
| |
| Unlike Pollard and Sag (1994), GS give subtypes to the type ''phrase'' which reflect the functional relationship between the head daughter and the non-head daughter(s). The following phrase types exist:

|
| |
| ===== Head-Complement Phrases =====
| |
|
| |
| A Head-Complement Phrase is formed from a word and one phrase for each of the ''synsems'' on the head's COMPS list. There has to be a 1:1 relation between the selected ''synsems'' and the phrases:

| |
|
| |
|
| |
| ===== Head-Specifier Phrases =====
| |
|
| |
| In a Head-Specifier Phrase a head combines with a phrase whose ''synsem'' is token-identical to the ''synsem'' on the head's SPR list:
| |
|
| |
| [[File:GS-hd-spr-ph.jpg]]
| |
|
| |
| ===== Head-Subject Phrases =====
| |
|
| |
| In a Head-Subject Phrase a head combines with a phrase whose ''synsem'' is token-identical to the ''synsem'' on the head's SUBJ list:
| |
|
| |
| [[File:GS-hd-subj-ph.jpg]]
| |
|
| |
| Note that unlike in Pollard and Sag (1994), subjects of verbs combine with the head in a Head-Subject Phrase, whereas determiners combine with the nominal they specify in a Head-Specifier Phrase!

| === Homework for next time ===
| |
|
| |
| # Read p. 17-38 in GS (ignore the section on lexemes at the beginning!
| |
| # Study the type definitions in these pages and make sure you understand them!
