Raffaella Zanuttini and Co-Authors Publish Paper
Raffaella Zanuttini and her co-authors Miok Pak and Paul Portner published a squib in Linguistic Inquiry, “Restrictions on Indexicals in Directive Clauses.” The squib makes a novel observation, pointing to the existence of type of clause that has directive force and yet is not a canonical imperative, in which some indexicals are ruled out and others are restricted. It also briefly discusses how this observation affects our understanding of indexicality and clausal structure.
