Sammanfattning (abstract):

This paper proposes a record type theoretical account of cases of copredication which have motivated the introduction of dot types in the Generative Lexicon. Using record types not only gives us a simple and intuitive account of dot types but also makes an important connection between copredication and the use of hypothetical contexts in a record type theoretic analysis of dynamic generalized quantifiers. It also allows us to preserve the intuitive feature structure based accounts of lexical analysis proposed in Pustejovsky's original work on the Generative Lexicon and gives us a way of treating certain kinds of lexical innovation as coercions involving the addition or removal of fields in record types.
