[Lexicog] Re: Deriving verbs and lexicography

[Rudolph Troike]

Mike,

   Your memory is good -- this has been a basic part of Chomsky's approach
for a long time. But the essence of the GB model incorporating X-bar theory
was that the lexical items chosen projected their category label/feature in
a binary tree to a maximal XP level. Now this has disappeared as a mechanism
and been replaced by arboreal structures generated by merging heads and
creating spec positions to check off features (eliminating semantically
uninterpretable ones like Case).
