Abstract

This contribution argues that there are some core properties of grammatical systems that can be expressed in terms of well-defined patterns of correspondence between semantic selection and the formal feature system underlying the syntactic computation. In particular, it argues that inquiry into the interpretable features involved in reference to propositions may offer a valuable contribution for the derivation of the syntactic irregularity that characterizes categorial selection
