bq. Abstract Starting from an analysis for the diverging crosslinguistic grammaticality of DP-internal conjunctions such as this [man and woman] are in love, the article develops a theory of the syntax/semantics interface within the DP and a novel proposal for the interpretation of conjunction. The main claims are that plural/mass denotations are built in stages within the DP, by the combined effect of number features and semantic operators associated with functional heads; that languages differ in whether the denotation of nouns is filtered for singular or plural number, and that the word and crosslinguistically denotes SET PRODUCT, an operation which, in different contexts, can mimic the behavior of intersection and union.
I´M INTERESTING TO GET MORE INFORMATION ABOUT SEMANTICS FEATURES AND I´M WONDERING IF YOU HAVE AN EXTRA INFORMATION THAT YOU CAN SEND ME BY MAIL; I´M GOING TO APPRECIATE THAT THANKS
