The Phrase Hierarchy
Constraints on the Phrasal Types
Illustration of Constraint Inheritance
Since the type type{fin-vp} has several phrasal supertypes, a feature structure of that type must satisfy the following constraint:
Exercises
Parse the following expressions in the Schematic Grammar to test the constraints associated with the type phrase and its subtypes:
- word subj_seeker
- word spr_seeker
- comp_seeker word
Now parse the following expressions in our Regular Grammar to see which information authentic lexical entries contribute to a phrase:
- Real "subject seekers":
- dances
- likes Lilly
- Real "specifier seekers":
- cat
- picture of Lilly
- Real "complement seekers":
- likes Lilly
- puts the books on the shelf
After you have tried the examples above, think up 3 more examples for each of the 3 types above and try them out.
