Each θ-role picate s meang entails (requires) that verb s argument possess certa general properties (e.g., be animate, have volition, be movable, etc.) Each picate also imposes specific requirements on its arguments due to its own specific meang ( e.g., be liquid, be edible, etc.) If a picate combes with arguments that do not satisfy se expectations result is semantic anomaly 3 S-selection!My toothbrush is pregnant pregnant < property > [+female]!the pizza is too hot to drk. drk < agent, me > [+fluid]!the witch used her dream to fly out to forest 4 *Sandy kissed to Tom Sandy kissed Tom C-selection (categorial selection) *Sandy told to Tom that she is hungry Sandy told Tom that she is hungry Sandy said to Tom that she is hungry *Sandy said Tom that she is hungry kiss, V [, ] tell, V [,, C] say, V [,, C] C-selection A part of picate s syntax is: Information about syntactic category of its arguments This formation must be lexical entry of picate because it is not pictable from meang of picate Sandy talked to Tom about movie *Sandy talked Tom about movie talk, V [,, ] 5 6
