Including papers that were inspired by the linguistics career of Ivan A Sag (1949-2013), this title is written to commemorate his many contributions to the field. It tackles a range of grammar-related issues and shares the perspective that the best theories of grammar attempt to account for the full diversity and complexity of language data.
Contains essays that explore explicit and implicit communication through linguistic research. Taking as a framework Paul Grice's theories on "what is said," this volume explores a number of areas, including the boundary between semantics and pragmatics; the concept of implicit communication; and the notion of conventional meaning.
Offers a unique perspective on linguistics by discussing the development of computer programs that will assign particular sounds to meanings and, conversely, meanings to particular sounds.
Explores how aspects of semantics and pragmatics such as compositionality shape the effectiveness of communication, the roles of the speaker and hearer, and the acquisition of meaning. It surveys research in the fields of syntax, semantics, and pragmatics.
