This book examines in detail the acceptability status of
sentences in the following five English constructions, and
elucidates the syntactic, semantic, and functional requirements
that the constructions must satisfy in order to be appropriately
used:
Tuere-Construction,
(One s) Way Construction, Cognate
Object Construction, Pseudo-Passive Construction, and
Extraposition from Subject NPs. It has been argued in the
frameworks of Chomskyan generative grammar, relational
grammar, conceptual semantics and other syntactic theories
that the acceptability of sentences in these constructions can
be accounted for by the unergative-unaccusative distinction
of intransitive verbs. However, this book shows through a
wide range of sentences that none of these constructions is
sensitive to this distinction. For each construction, it shows
that acceptability status is determined by a given sentence s
semantic function as it interacts with syntactic constraints
(which are independent of the unergative-unaccusative
distinction), and with functional constraints that apply to it in
its discourse context.
