Presupposition and Context Sensitivity

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

We argue there is a clash between the standard treatments of context sensitivity and presupposition triggering. We use this criticism to motivate a defense of an often-discarded view about how to represent context sensitivity, according to which there are more lexically implicit items in logical form than has been appreciated.
