| Research Abstract |
In this project, we’ve extracted grammatically relevant semantic features of the lexical meaning which determine the phrasal structure or restrict various word formation processes and tried to represent them in terms of Qualia Structure in the framework of Generative Lexicon. We’ve also revealed the conflation mechanism of the Qualia Structures in derivatives or compounds. Specifically, we dealt with denominal verbs in English and ‘N+A/V’ and ‘V+V’ compounds in Japanese to show how the Qualia Structures of nouns and verbs determine the semantic and syntactic features of the compounds.
