A Grammatical Update of Pronoun Reference
Journal of Technical Writing and Communication, 1986Most technical writing texts contain grammar reviews, but few supply more than prescriptive rules to correct persistent examples of unclear writing. To provide a more progressive approach to grammatical analysis, this article applies the non-prescriptive constructs of modern grammar to the recurrent problem of faulty pronoun reference.

A referent grammatical analysis of relative clauses
Acta Linguistica Hafniensia, 1988Relative clauses have traditionally been said to have an antecedent or a correlate corresponding to a coreferent, missing, and relativized constituent in the relative clause (some representative works on relative clauses are mentioned in the list of references). Referent grammar (Sigurd, 1987) assumes referent variables in the syntactic representations

Most studies on pronominalization (Bach, 1970; Chomsky, 1965; Dougherty, 1969; Lakoff, 1968; Lees and Klima, 1963; Postal, 1968 and Ross, 1967) postulate that there exists one single operation that applies when two NP’s occurring in certain discourses are morphemically identical and coreferential.

Whorf sets up grammatical gender in English as a 'covert' category.2 He bases his argument essentially on the contention that with given names, and occasionally with other nouns (those referring to living beings and in instances traditionally referred to as 'personification,' though he does ...

Anaphoric Reference: Grammatical or Pragmatic?
1994AbstractAnaphoric reference has been discussed much more by linguists than by philosophers. It should be addressed by philosophers as well, for it raises some interesting questions about the syntax, semantics, and pragmatics of pronouns. The main question concerns the status of the relation of co-reference between a pronoun and its antecedent: is this ...

A REFERENT GRAMMATICAL ANALYSIS OF RELATIVE CLAUSES IN POLISH
Studia Linguistica, 1988The paper contains a preliminary analysis of some typical Polish relative constructions. The description is formulated in Referent Grammar (RG), a theory developed by Bengt Sigurd (1987) as a tool for parsing and computer translation. RG is a phrase structure grammar, inspired by categorial grammars and GPSG.

XIV.—The Harmonizing of Grammatical Nomenclature, with Especial Reference to Mood–Syntax
PMLA/Publications of the Modern Language Association of America, 1911It probably does not often happen that a worker in Latin and Greek addresses a body of workers in the modern languages, or the converse. But there is nothing unnatural in such a proceeding, and it ought indeed to be a common thing. We of the classics and you of the modern languages have the same convictions to maintain in the scheme of education,—first

PMLA/Publications of the Modern Language Association of America, 1912
In my former paper, I have shown that the languages of our family commonly studied in our schools and colleges possess a mood that has the power of expressing volition on the one hand, and mere anticipation on the other; and that, in Latin, Romance, and Germanic, this double power was inherited from the distinct mood, called subjunctive, of the parent ...
