The Syntax of Deverbal Compound Adjectives in English: Internal Structure and Categorial Identity - Sounds - Meaning - Communication
Sebastian Wasak
The study shows that adjectival synthetic compounds in English come in two categories. Eventive compounds behave in a way pointing to the presence of the verbal structure in their syntactic representation. On the other hand, stative compounds are shown to behave in a manner typical of simple adjectives; they are derived directly from the root.
