Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract: This chapter provides an overview of noun incorporation in broad terms, examining nominals found either within or strictly adjacent to predicates from numerous languages. Syntactic issues have shifted from an earlier debate about whether noun incorporation was an operation in the lexicon or syntax to more recent discussion about whether noun incorporation is a narrow syntax or PF operation. Other issues concern whether phrases or just heads can incorporate. If phrases incorporate, are they phrasal at the point of incorporation? AGREE analyses examine the trigger for incorporation. A number of analyses posit that there is no movement of the nominal at all (pseudo noun incorporation), and utilize an adjacency relation between the verb and incorporated nominal. It remains clear that languages show similar cross‐linguistic properties in noun incorporation, even to the extent that language‐internal differences are often similar, often relating to verb class. The expansion of the set of empirical data from semantic analyses and other work continues to lead toward refinements.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
