Relativsätze und Intensionalität

INT项目旨在澄清不同功能类型的关系从句之间的关系。在第一阶段的资金投入中，对关系从句与各种内涵操作的相互作用进行了广泛而详细的调查，该项目将重点放在以下现象上，这些现象被证明是特别有启发性的：非特定不定词中的模式化关系从句(如在公司正在寻找一名应该流利英语的工程师)显示了限制性阅读和同位阅读之间的系统联系。与Amount Relate连用，在英语中尤为突出(我们将永远无法喝到他们昨晚洒出的香槟)，可以与比较结构建立联系(我们能够喝的香槟数量永远不会是他们昨晚洒出的香槟数量)。在一些环境中，例如，隐含的从句(令人惊讶的是你在这些会议上遇到的人)关系从句，通常是可选的，但事实证明，对于结构的语法性(通过修饰许可)来说，关系从句是必不可少的。上述结构构成了项目中将要开发的语义分析所涵盖的核心领域。理论框架将由类型驱动的解释提供，这在情态和名词性语义方面取得了特别丰硕的成果。

The project INT aims at a clarification of the relationship between different functional types of relative clauses. Extensive and detailed investigations of the interaction of relative clauses with various intensional operations carried out during the first period of funding have led the project to a focus on the following areas of phenomena, which have proved to be particularly instructive: Modalized relative clauses in unspecific indefinites (as in The company is looking for an engineer who ought to be fluent in English) display systematic connections between restrictive and appositive readings. With amount relatives, as particularly prominent in English (We will never be able to drink the champagne they spilt last night) a connection can be made with comparative constructions (Never will the amount of champagne we are able to drink be the amount of champagne they spilt last night). In some environments e.g., concealed exlamatives (Its amazing the people you meet at these conferences) relative clauses, which are normally optional, turn out to be essential for the grammaticality of a construction (Licensing by modification).The above-mentioned constructions form the core area covered by the semantic analyses to be developed within the project. The theoretical framework will be provided by type-driven interpretation, which has been particularly fruitful for modal and nominal semantics.
