Summary "Adjectival modification and order restrictions" beschäftigt sich mit Abfolgebeschränkungen pränominaler Adjektive an der Syntax-Semantik-Schnittstelle. Der Autor veranschaulicht, dass semantisch feinkörnige Klassifikationen stark untergenerieren und Flüchtigkeit adjektivischer Konzepte als maßgebender Faktor für Abfolgebeschränkungen zurückzuweisen ist. Das Forschungsdesign verbindet formaltheoretische Ansätze mit Korpus- und Fragebogenstudien
