  • Stanley Newman

  • Journal:
    Language / Volume 63 / Issue 2 / June 1987

  • Had he not died suddenly on 26 August 1984, in his eightieth year, Stanley Newman would have been President of the Society in 1986, and his Presidential Address might well appear in this issue. In its stead, we memorialize the character of his achievements as one of the most gifted of Sapir's successors, whose career in a way typifies the experience of a whole group of that academic generation.

  • Two Types of Noun Incorporation: A Lexical Analysis

  • Sara Thomas Rosen
  • Journal:
    Language / Volume 65 / Issue 2 / June 1989
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    12 March 2026, pp. 294-317

  • In recent work Noun Incorporation has been argued to result from head movement, in which the head of an object noun phrase moves into the verb, creating a complex verb. This paper argues instead that NI derives from word formation rules applying in the lexicon, presyntactically. On the basis of clusters of grammatical properties associated with NI, it is apparent that there are two separate word formation processes that languages may choose. In one, when a noun root combines with a verb root, the argument structure of the verb is altered such that the complex verb takes one less argument. In the other form of NI, when a noun root combines with a verb root, the argument structure of the complex verb is unaltered. It is shown that the predicted grammatical properties associated with the change or lack of change in argument structure follow.
