00question 1: 02br
02br
00Which of the following designate a legitimate type according to the type system which our language Ltype rests on? 02br
02br
00 a. 01<00, 01<00, t>> 02br
00 b. 01<<00, t>, 0100> 02br
00 c. 01<00, 0100, t> 02br
00 d. 01< t, <00, t>> 02br
00 e. 01<00, 0100> 02br
02br
02br
02br
02br
00question 2: 02br
02br
00“The dog chased John.” 02br
02br
00Derive the semantic value of the determiner the as a higher-order expression from the translation of the sentence above abstracting away the semantic contributions of the other expressions constituting the sentence step by step. 02br
02br
02br
02br
02br
00question 3: 02br
02br
00Suppose the following rules were added to the syntax of L1E: 02br
02br
00 VP -> Vs S 02br
00 Vs -> believes-that, hopes-that 02br
02br
00What type of semantic value would be appropriate in an extensional framework for verbs belonging to the lexical category Vs? What difficulty arises in attempting to formulate the semantic rule for Vs + S constructions? 02br
02br
02br
00( 02br
02br
00Instead of recursive definitions, let us use a (context-free) phrase-structure grammar of the sort linguists are accustomed to in order to specify the syntax of L1E 02br
02br
00Syntax of L1E 02br
02br
00N -> Sadie 02br
00N -> Liz 02br
00N -> Hank 02br
02br
00Vi -> snores 02br
00Vi -> sleeps 02br
00Vi -> is-boring 02br
02br
00Vt -> loves 02br
00Vt -> hates 02br
00Vt -> is-boring 02br
02br
00Conj -> and 02br
00Conj -> or 02br
02br
00Neg -> it-is-not-the-case-that 02br
02br
00S -> S Conj S 02br
00S -> Neg S 02br
00S -> N VP 02br
02br
00VP -> Vi 02br
00VP -> Vt N 02br
