Dear Sergey,

You might find the attached paper relevant. We tried to extend the Nichols typology of head vs dependent marking to take in the type of information that is there – is it about the head, the dependent, both or neither? That generates a large and interesting set of possibilities, many quite rare and some still unattested.

Dear Colleagues,

Are you aware of any recent (post- Koptevskaya-Tamm 2002) studies on the types of semantic relationships between heads and dependents in possessive noun phrases, particularly in relation to the correlation between synthetic and analytical methods of encoding these relationships within an NP?

Best wishes,

Sergey
