Adjectives as saturators vs. modifiers: statistical evidence

McNally, Louise, 1965-; Boleda, Gemma; Evert, Stefan; Gehrke, Berit (Springer, 2012)

This paper reports on a large-scale, statistical analysis of corpus data to support the null hypothesis that ethnic adjectives (EAs, e.g. French) are ordinary adjectives, rather than argument-saturating \nouns in disguise" ...
Event individuation by objects: evidence from frequency adjectives

McNally, Louise, 1965-; Gehrke, Berit (Universidad del País Vasco, 2014)

Adverbially-interpreted temporal frequency adjectives (FAs) such as frequent, sporadic, and daily, are usually restricted to modifying event-denoting nominals (e.g. The house underwent frequent cleanings = Frequently, the ...
First-order vs. higher-order modification in distributional semantics

Boleda, Gemma; Vecchi, Eva Maria; Cornudella Gaya, Miquel; McNally, Louise, 1965- (ACL (Association for Computational Linguistics), 2012)

Adjectival modification, particularly by expressions that have been treated as higher-order modifiers in the formal semantics tradition, raises interesting challenges for semantic composition in distributional semantic ...
Frequency adjectives and assertions about event types

McNally, Louise, 1965-; Gehrke, Berit (Cornell University, Linguistic Society of America, 2011)
Frequency adjectives and assertions about event types

Gehrke, Berit; McNally, Louise, 1965- (Cambridge Medical Publications, 2011)
From event structure to scale structure: degree modification in deverbal adjectives

Kennedy, Christopher; McNally, Louise, 1965- (Cornell University, 1999)
Intensionality was only alleged: on adjective-noun composition in distributional semantics

Boleda, Gemma; Baroni, Marco; Pham, Nghia The; McNally, Louise, 1965- (ACL (Association for Computational Linguistics), 2013)

Distributional semantics has very successfully modeled semantic phenomena at the word level, and recently interest has grown in extending it to capture the meaning of phrases via semantic composition. We present experiments ...
No ordered arguments needed for nouns

Grimm, Scott; McNally, Louise, 1965- (Institute for Logic, Language and Computation (ILLC), 2013)

Syntacticians have widely assumed since [11] that there is a fundamental difference between so-called argument structure nominals (AS-nominals, also called Complex Event Nominals), e.g. destruction, and non-AS-nominals, ...
Relational adjectives as properties of kinds

McNally, Louise, 1965-; Boleda, Gemma (Colloque de Syntaxe et Sémantique à Paris, 2004)
The -ing dynasty: rebuilding the semantics of nominalizations

McNally, Louise, 1965-; Grimm, Scott (Cornell University, Linguistic Society of America, 2015)

The nature of -ing nominals has been widely debated since the early days of generative grammar (e.g. Lees 1960, Chomsky 1970), and at least since Vendler (1967), -ing forms also have played a central role in debates over ...
The relative role of property type and scale structure in explaining the behavior of gradable adjectives

McNally, Louise, 1965- (Springer, 2011)

Kennedy (2007) proposes a semantics for positive form adjectives on which the standard for ascribing an adjective A makes the individuals that are A stand out from those that are not. To account for the di erences between ...
The syntax and semantics of multiple degree modification in english

Kennedy, Christopher; McNally, Louise, 1965- (CSLI Publications, 2005)

Focusing on the examples of multiple degree modification, this paper argues that the class of degree expressions in English is syntactically and semantically diverse, subdivided both according to the semantic effects of ...
The+VPing as anaphoric event-type reference

Grimm, Scott; McNally, Louise, 1965- (Cascadilla Proceedings Project, 2016)
