{"product_id":"mixed-categories-irina-nikolaeva-9781108415514","title":"Mixed Categories","description":"Exploring the phenomenon of 'mixed categories', this book is the first in-depth study of the way in which languages can use a noun, as opposed to an adjective, to modify another noun. It investigates noun-adjective hybrids - adjectives and adjective-like attributive forms which have been derived from nouns and systematically retain certain nominal properties. These rarely-discussed types of mixed category raise a number of important theoretical questions about the nature of lexemic identity, the inflection-derivation divide, and more generally, the relationship between the structure of words and their phrasal syntax. The book proposes a new formal framework that models cross-linguistic and cross-constructional variation in noun modification constructions. The framework it offers enables readers to explicitly map word structure to syntactic structure, providing new insights into, and impacting upon, all current theoretical models of grammar.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Irina Nikolaeva,Andrew Spencer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1108415512\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781108415514\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/31\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 418\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 1.00d","brand":"Irina Nikolaeva","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48435983679743,"sku":"9781108415514","price":142.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_87e62c6c-4d5c-491c-bf75-2f8c071f8901.jpg?v=1777153996","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mixed-categories-irina-nikolaeva-9781108415514","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
