Conclusion ; References 327 $aPart II. Minor and neglected word classes 330 $aWord classes play a fundamental role in many parts of linguistics. Yet, when looking at words individually, there is a large 'class' of words that does not behave like any other. This is illustrated here by describing the idiosyncratic behaviour of one such word: half. Half is labeled in many different ways: an adjective, a predeterminer, a quantifier, but it does not behave like any of these. For an accurate modeling of the combinatorics of half, and many other words like it, a more lexically driven approach is needed, since merely assigning them to a word class does not do their behaviour 410 0$aAmsterdam studies in the theory and history of linguistic science.$nSeries IV,$pCurrent issues in linguistic theory ;$vVolume 332. 606 $aWord (Linguistics) 606 $aTypology (Linguistics) 606 $aParts of speech 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xGrammatical catagories 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWord (Linguistics) 615 0$aTypology (Linguistics) 615 0$aParts of speech. 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xGrammatical catagories. 676 $a412 702 $aSimone$b Raffaele 702 $aMasini$b Francesca 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459760703321 996 $aWord classes$91576870 997 $aUNINA
