Subject: Adjectives and Explanation
About a year ago, I ended my paper ''Good Intentions and Actual Deeds: A response to my critics'' (Lingua 116/4: 523-542) with the remark that the model in Bouchard (2002) provides a level of explanation which is unattainable for analyses set in the Minimalist Program or in alternative theories of generative syntax—in particular concerning the distribution and interpretation of adjectives inside nominal expressions. I have kept my eyes open for studies dealing with adjectives, but I haven't seen any work that meets the challenge. Of course, there is a staggering amount of linguistic works published every year, and it may very well be that some paper on the subject escaped my notice. Has anyone read an analysis of adjectives that comes close to what I am looking for? I will post a summary.

Hello I need your comment about English grammar and LFG parser to my thesis. A bottom-up parsing is used to build LFG parser(I will use a Prolog programming). Please advise me about LFG parser and English grammar to use in system. Thank you so much, Tawee
