adjective typology

[Tom Bartlett]

I don't know if you're looking for a list or a classificatory framework; if the latter, you might try Gordon Tucker's The Lexicogrammar of adjectives.

All the best,

Subject: [FUNKNET] adjective typology

Dear Funknet,
     Has anyone ever produced an adjective classification along the lines of the Levin classification system for verbs?  In other words, one that breaks adjectives into syntactic/semantic groups. Something in digital format would be best, but printed would be okay too.
Many thanks for any suggestions on this.  If anyone locates anything, I will post the result to the list.
