Comparative Correlatives Comparatively (2005, background): “In fact, they do not seem to look like anything we are familiar with—whence their sui generis classification in Culicover and Jackendoff 1999.”
The English Resultative as a Family of Constructions (2004, background): “(comparative correlative, Culicover & Jackendoff 1999, Michaelis 1994) d. Day by day the facts are getting murkier.”
Constructions: a new theoretical approach to language. (2003, background): “Because the pattern is not strictly predictable, a construction is posited that specifies the particular form and semantic function involved [ 10 ].”
