Optative constructions express desire without an overt lexical item that means 'desire'. The author specifically investigates optatives with the syntax of embedded clauses that contain prototypical particles such as 'only'. He rejects the view that optativity arises compositionally from the standard semantics of embedded clauses and prototypical particles. The following system is proposed: Desirability is due to a generalized scalar exclamation operator EX. Furthermore, clausal properties such as factivity/counterfactuality a. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Grammar, Comparative and general|xMood.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85056305 650 0 Grammar, Comparative and general|xSubordinate constructions.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85056332 650 0 Grammar, Comparative and general|xSubjunctive.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85056331 650 0 Grammar, Comparative and general|xTense.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85056341 650 0 English language|xGrammar, Comparative.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85043568 650 0 German language|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85054365|xGrammar, Comparative.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00005980 650 7 Grammar, Comparative and general|xMood.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/946201 650 7 Grammar, Comparative and general|xSubordinate constructions.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/946252 650 7 Grammar, Comparative and general|xSubjunctive.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/946251 650 7 Grammar, Comparative and general|xTense.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/946266 650 7 English language|xGrammar, Comparative.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/911233 650 7 German language|xGrammar, Comparative.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/941533 650 7 German language.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 941408 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aGrosz, Patrick Georg.|tOn the Grammar of Optative Constructions.|dAmsterdam : John Benjamins Publishing Company, ©2012|z9789027255761 830 0 Linguistik aktuell ;|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names /n42035628|vv. 193. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=473817|zOnline eBook.
