To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The labels 'S', 'VP', and 'CI' represent 'subject', 'verb', and 'first complement position', respectively. I will indicate an ordered—but not necessarily uninterrupted- sequence with double slashes separating elements in the sequence. Paradigmatically-related elements will be given in the following fashion: /en, ed, ing/, i.e., with the comma as internal delimiter. n"he upward OR node labelled 'a' in diagram (5.12) will lead to the sememes /continuous, non-past (for most V's)/. Q By 'non-past',... I am referring to the structure with unmarked present time interpretation and possible (marked) future time inter- pretation, realized in the lexotactics as //be/ing//. Actually, this is probably an oversimplification. °Note that the details of the VP are not included in this discus- sion. - 95 - Recall that no linear order is specified by the order of the listing. Hierarchical ordering is implicit, but is not explicitly shown here, either. I have used parentheses to indicate gross hier- archical groupings.
