Hi linguists,
I am looking for formal semantic treatments of sentence-level adverbs like 'possibly' and 'obviously' modifying an attributive adjective, as in 'an obviously tall man', 'a possibly relevant article', etc. I am finding lots of treatments of these kinds of adverbs modifying sentences, as in 'Obviously, he will come,' but I am unable to find anything on the adjective-modifying case. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I would be much obliged. Thanks! Elizabeth Coppock eecoppock@gmail.com Postdoctoral Scholar Lund University |
