Kim, So-Jee & Cho, Sae-Youn. (2018). Positive stripping construction in English: A direct interpretation approach. The Linguistic Association of Korea Journal, 26(1), 75-96. The so-called positive Stripping construction in English involves the conjunction and, a single constituent XP, and the adverb too. This construction seems to be an incomplete sentence and nonetheless, delivers a complete sentential meaning. To generate such sentences and provide propositional meanings, we propose a construction-based analysis in a direct interpretation approach, rejecting the previous analyses mainly based on deletion approaches. In so doing, we suggest a positive stripping construction rule, which enables us to provide an explanation on the syntactic structure and the meaning of the construction at issue. |
