The Structural Design of Language

By Thomas S. Stroik, Michael T. Putnam

In this book, Stroik and Putnam take on Turing's challenge. They argue that the narrow syntax – the lexicon, the Numeration, and the computational system – must reside, for reasons of conceptual necessity, within the performance systems.

Past Ability (Eng. Verbs)



Dear subscribers,

I am presently interested in obtaining your intuitive opinions about
inferences arising from the use of verbs expressing past ability in
English. I would be really appreciative if anyone who is interested in
completing a very brief survey would contact me, and I'll email them a
copy of it.

Thanks in advance,

Debra Ziegeler
