| == Exercises ==
| |
| | |
| After having watched the video, work on the following tasks.
| |
| | |
| '''Task 1''' Identify the determiners in the following sentence.
| |
| | |
| (a) Juliet talked to some stranger at the party.
| |
| | |
| (b) Every Capulet is an enemy to some Montague.
| |
| | |
| (c) Many people in Verona are not happy about the Capulet-Montague feud.

| | |
| (b) ''every'', ''some''
| |
| | |
| (c) ''many''</div>
| |
| </div>
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| '''Task 2''' Identify the formula that corresponds to the translation of the sentence.

| <quiz display=simple>
| |
| | |
| {''Some Montague who was at the party fell in love with Juliet.''
| |
| |type="()"}
| |
| - ∃''x'' ('''montague<sub>1</sub>'''(''x'') : ('''at-party<sub>1</sub>'''(''x'') ∧ '''fall-in-love-with<sub>2</sub>'''(''x'','''juliet''')))
| |
| || In restricted quantifier notation, the "complete" semantic representation of the noun phrase (NP) appears in the restrictor (-> square brackets).
| |
| + ∃''x'' (('''montague<sub>1</sub>'''(''x'') ∧ '''at-party<sub>1</sub>'''(''x'')) : '''fall-in-love-with<sub>2</sub>'''(''x'','''juliet'''))
| |
| - ∃''x'' ('''montague<sub>1</sub>'''(''x'') : ('''at-party<sub>1</sub>'''(''x'') ∧ '''fall-in-love-with<sub>2</sub>'''(''x'','''juliet'''))
| |
| || In restricted quantifier notation, the semantic representation of the noun phrase (NP) appears in the restrictor. | |
| - ∃''x'' (('''montague<sub>1</sub>'''(''x'') ∧ '''fall-in-love-with<sub>2</sub>'''(''x'','''juliet''')) : '''at-party<sub>1</sub>'''(''x''))
| |
| || In restricted quantifier notation, the semantic representation of the noun phrase (NP) appears in the restrictor, that of the VP in the scope.
| |
| | |
| </quiz>
| |
| | |
| '''Task 3''' The sentence: ''Some Tybalt loved some Montague.'' is translated into the formula<br>∃ y ('''montague<sub>1</sub>'''(''y'') : '''love<sub>2</sub>'''('''tybalt''',''y'').
| |
| | |
| <quiz display=simple>
| |
| {Mark all the cells in the table that stand for a true statement.
| |
| |type="[]"}
| |
| | '''montague<sub>1</sub>'''(''y'') <span style="color:white">zwisch</span>| '''love<sub>2</sub>'''('''tybalt''',''y'')<span style="color:white">zwisch</span>
| |
| +- ''Romeo''
| |
| +- ''Mercutio''
| |
| -- ''Juliet''
| |
| -- ''Tybalt''
| |
| -- ''Laurence''
| |
| -- ''Paris''
| |
| </quiz>
| |
| | |
| Given this table, is the overall formula true or false? (Give a reason for your answer.)

| |
| The formula is false, because there is no individual in our model for which both the restrictor and the scope are true.
| |
| </div>
| |
| </div>
| |

| | |
| '''Task 4''' Variable assignment function<br>
| |
| Start with the following variable assigment function ''g'':
| |
| ''g(u) = Romeo, g(v) = Juliet, g(w) = Romeo, g(x) = Laurence, g(y) = Mercutio, g(z) = Juliet''
| |
| | |
| Provide the changed variable assignment function ''g''[''v/Paris''].

Six steps in a syntactic analysis
There is an old video on the 6 steps in syntactic analysis. The final analysis of the example sentence looks slightly different from what we assume in our class.
The tree we would draw in this class looks like this:
What are the differences?
