Adjuncts and the Processing of Lexical Rules
The standard HPSG analysis of Germanic verb clusters can not explain the observed narrowscope readings of adjuncts in such verb clusters. We present an extension of the HPSG analysis that accounts for the systematic ambiguity of the scope of adjuncts in verb cluster constructions, by treating adjuncts as members of the sul)eat list. The extension uses powerNl reeursive lexical rules, implemented as complex constraints. We show how 'delayed evaluation' teehMques from constrMnt-loglc programming can be used to process such lexical rules. 1 Problem Description
