Degree Morphology

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This entry provides a chronological overview of the treatment of degree morphology in the generative literature from the 1970s until today. Starting out from Ultan’s four basic degrees of comparison, it initially widens the scope to consider other types of degree morphology. It then homes in on the expression of the positive, comparative and superlative degrees, and the way these are related to one another. It is shown how the functional superstructure of the adjective became increasingly fine-grained, with the earliest proposals involving a partitive layer (QP) with a degree determiner (deg) on top of the lexical adjectival core. It is then k shown how deg is split up into a comparative head cmpr and a superlative head sprl in the work of Bobaljik, which is based on attested and unattested patterns in root suppletion in the triplet positive-comparative-superlative. Nanosyntactic treatments are discussed, which decompose Bobaljik’s heads even further, on the basis of evidence from Czech comparatives and Latin superlatives. Finally, the particular position of the positive degree is discussed, in particular its relation to the comparative, both with respect to their morphological marking and their underlying structural and semantic relationship.
