Ambiguity under changing contexts
Linguistics and Philosophy 20 (6):575-606 (1997)
Abstract
Notions of disambiguation supporting a compositional interpretation ofvambiguous expressions and reflecting intuitions about how sentences combinevin discourse are investigated. Expressions are analyzed both inductively byvbreaking them apart, and co-inductively by embedding them within larger contexts.Links
