It explores the division of labour between syntax, compositional semantics, and lexical semantics in the encoding of event structure. 410 0$aOxford studies in theoretical linguistics ;$v27. 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xSyntax 606 $aSemantics 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xTemporal constructions 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xSyntax. 615 0$aSemantics. 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xTemporal constructions. 676 $a415 701 $aHovav$b Malka Rappaport$0292891 701 $aDoron$b Edit$0915639 701 $aSichel$b Ivy$0915640 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910141658703321 996 $aLexical semantics, syntax, and event structure$92052606 997 $aUNINA
