| The main burden of this chapter is to argue against strict compositionality and for partial compositionality. |
|
| Montague suggested a perspicuous way to capture the principle of compositionality formally. |
|
| Other exceptions to compositionality are idioms, figures of speech, and expressions which are subject to pragmatic interpretations. |
|
| It's hard for me to believe that any creature could develop anything much like human language without at least some limited form of recursive compositionality. |
|
| In linguistics, idioms are usually presumed to be figures of speech contradicting the principle of compositionality. |
|
| That compositionality is the key notion for the analysis of idioms is emphasized in most accounts of idioms. |
|
| This trait of phrasal verbs is also what makes them interesting for linguists, since they appear to defy the principle of compositionality. |
|
| In particular, Frege held as a special case of the Compositionality of Reference that a compound expression having a nonreferring part must itself be nonreferring. |
|
| The Principle of Compositionality can in fact be maintained. |
