It presents a decompositional analysis of -ble that captures intralinguistic variation and accounts for morphologically more complex languages. It contributes novel empirical data. First, the grammaticality of -ble formations derived from unergatives and unaccusatives in Spanish is argued to be a function of their exoskeletal properties in interaction with language-specific facts and features of the grammar of cognation, degrees, quantification and Aktionsart. A previously unnoticed correlation between the Spanish data and a cognate configuration with unaccusatives in English reinforces the proposal. Second, the grammaticality of denominal -ble adjectives in Romance and their absence in English relates aspects of the internal structure of -ble to issues pertaining to the eventive properties and syntactico-semantic status of the base nouns. This crosslinguistic proposal implicates central issues in the syntax-semantics-morphology interface, e.g. cross category derivations, locus of variation, or status of impossible words.Interface explorations ;28.English languageAdjectiveEnglish languageVerbEnglish languageSuffixes and prefixesEnglish languageGrammar, ComparativeSpanishSpanish languageGrammar, ComparativeEnglishMorphologyElectronic books.English languageAdjective.English languageVerb.English languageSuffixes and prefixes.English languageGrammar, ComparativeSpanish.Spanish languageGrammar, ComparativeEnglish.Morphology.425/.5Oltra Massuet Maria Isabel1046047MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453781203321Deverbal adjectives at the interface2472711UNINA
