A Corpus-based Syntactic Analysis of Two-termed Unlike Coordination (2021.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | a phenomenon of language that conjoins two or more terms or phrases using a coordinating conjunction is still largely elusive and widely debated amongst linguists. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a computational corpus-based approach to study two-termed unlike coordinations where the two conjuncts of the coordination phrase form valid constituents but have distinct categories. |
| Outcome: | The proposed analysis shows that the two conjuncts within unlike coordinations display different properties based on their position, supporting an antisymmetric view of the structure of coordination. |
