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.

Query:   Hello,

I am writing a thesis on the usage of adjectives as adverbs in French (e.g. 'On t'aime GRAVE' or 'Il kiffe COMPLET pour toi'), and I was wondering if anyone could provide information about published studies of this phenomenon. Also, any pointers to sources of similar data would be greatly appreciated. Additionally, I would appreciate any information about analyses of the corresponding phenomenon in English (e.g. 'He plays GOOD').

Thank you in advance for you help.

Sincerely,
Anna Krusanova
