Piecewise Structural Equation Modeling of the Quantity Implicature in Child Language
Language and Speech, 2022We review an array of experimental methodological factors that either contribute to or detract from the measurement of pragmatic implicatures in child language. We carry out a truth value judgment task to measure children’s interpretations of the Spanish

Enriched Meanings, 2020
This chapter presents a monadic analysis of conventional implicatures. These expressions are compositionally challenging and also seem to challenge the traditional semantics/pragmatics divide by straddling it. This chapter first introduces two main sorts

Do Large Language Models Understand Conversational Implicature- A case study with a Chinese sitcom
China National Conference on Chinese Computational Linguistics“Understanding the non-literal meaning of an utterance is critical for large language models(LLMs) to become human-like social communicators. In this work, we introduce SwordsmanImp,the first Chinese multi-turn-dialogue-based dataset aimed at ...

Synthese, 2013
In recent work on the semantics of ‘knowledge’-attributions, a variety of accounts have been proposed that aim to explain the data about speaker intuitions in familiar cases such as DeRose’s Bank Case or Cohen’s Airport Case by means of pragmatic mechanisms, notably Gricean implicatures.

Abstract The concept of implicature (both conversational and conventional) has its origin in the work of the late English philosopher H. P. Grice, though some proto-Gricean ideas can be traced back to classical times. Since its inception, the notion of conversational implicature has become one of the single most important pragmatic ideas

Focus Fronting in Spanish: Mirative implicature and information structure
Probus: International Journal of Latin and Romance Linguistics, 2019In Romance, Focus Fronting (FF) is generally related to a contrastive or corrective function. In this paper, I show that Spanish may resort to FF to express a special evaluative meaning, namely, a mirative (conventional) implicature of surprise and ...

In recent years, quantity implicatures - a type of pragmatic inference - have been widely debated in linguistics, philosophy, and psychology, and have been subject to an enormous variety of analyses, ranging from lexical, syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic, to various hybrid accounts.

H. P. Grice virtually discovered the phenomenon of implicature (to denote the implications of an utterance that are not strictly implied by its content). Gricean theory claims that conversational implicatures can be explained and predicted using general psycho-social principles.
