Shûichi Yatabe: A Comprehensive Theory of Coordination of Unlikes
The principal aim of this paper is to present a comprehensive theory of
coordination of unlikes, i.e., a theory that is capable of dealing with
every phenomenon resulting from coordination of unlikes.
The proposed theory accounts not just for standard cases of coordination
of unlike arguments and coordination of unlike functors but also for cases
involving single-conjunct agreement and what will be called each-conjunct agreement.
In the course of the argumentation, it is also shown that, even in a language like English,
predicate-argument agreement needs to be described in terms of a relational
constraint that is not simply an identity requirement.
