The noun phrase
by Jan Rijkhoff
"This book presents a semantic model to describe the underlying structure of noun phrases in any natural human language. It examines the semantic and morpho-syntactic properties of the constituents of the noun phrase in a representative sample of the world's 6,000 or so languages and shows that noun phrase word order patterns of any language can be derived from three universal ordering principles." "The book assumes no knowledge of a particular formal or functional theory. It will interest linguists and students of linguistics of all theoretical persuasions, as well as students of the cognitive sciences and anthropology."--BOOK JACKET.
