Adjective Hierarchy: Comparing the Order of Adjectives in the Prenominal Field in English and Czech
Original language description
The paper discusses the ordering of prenominal modifiers in Czech. Surveying first several traditional proposals of existing universal or English specific hierarchies it concentrates on the proposal presented in Scott (2002) and attested also for Russianby Pereltsvaig (2007). The study searches for the data in Czech national corpus to demonstrate that the orderings inside Czech nominal complexes is as restricted as the one in English and Russian and it follows the same specific hierarchy. The Czech data also confirm the distinction between the strict orderings of elements in the functional domain and the more relaxed orderings in the modifier domain. The semantic hierarchy of syntactic adjuncts is therefore proposed as more suitable for the adjectivepremodifiers than the analysis assuming a string of universally ordered syntactic functional heads.
