    Invariance in argument realization: The case of Iroquoian 

    Koenig, Jean-Pierre; Michelson, Karin (Linguistic Society of America, 2015)
    The relevance of the concepts of local syntactic selection and constraints on locally selected dependents in modeling how arguments are syntactically realized has been virtually unchallenged and is assumed to be universal. ...

    Hindi Aspectual Complex Predicates 

    Koenig, Jean-Pierre; Poornima, Shakthi (CSLI Publications, 2009)

    Semantically transparent linking in HPSG 

    Koenig, Jean-Pierre; Davis, Anthony (CSLI Publications, 2003)
    Most researchers now agree that subcategorization correlates significantly with semantics. But this semantic component of linking has proved elusive. Most, if not all, theories of linking have, in pratice, resorted to ...

    Raising doubts about Russian impersonals 

    Koenig, Jean-Pierre; Davis, Anthony R. (CSLI Publications, 2004)

    From frame semantics to constructional syntax: the case of scalar predicates 

    Koenig, Jean-Pierre (Cornell University, 1992)
    The semantics and argument-structure of events and situations has received a lot of attention in the last twenty years, since the introduction of thematic roles by Gruber and Fillmore. By comparison, lexical items denoting ...

    What is a perfect state? 

    Koenig, Jean-Pierre; Nishiyama, Atsuko (Cascadilla Press, 2004)
    Although many previous studies have tried to explain the English perfect’s various readings, none of them have been entirely successful. In this article, we argue that the perfect is pragmatically, rather than semantically, ...

    The (non-)universality of syntactic selection and functional application 

    Koenig, Jean-Pierre; Michelson, Karin (Editions du CNRS, 2012)
    Nothing beats diversity for finding out what is truly universal about natural languages. But the importance of diversity goes beyond the obvious fact that universality can be recognized only in the face of diversity. ...

    Scalarity and state changes in Mandarin (and other languages) 

    Koenig, Jean-Pierre; Chief, Liangcheng (CSSP, 2008)
    One of the goals of lexical semantics is to delineate the space of possiblemeanings, how it varies across language, and to compare that space with what we know of conceptual space. Vendler (1967), Dowty (1979), Carter ...

    Scalar predicates and negation: Punctual semantics and interval interpretations 

    Koenig, Jean-Pierre (Chicago Linguistics Society, 1991)
    Many linguists and philosophers hold the view that scalar lexical items are downward bounded semantically and upward bounded only pragmatically via implicatures a Ia Grice. This approach, called by Anscombre and Ducrot ...
