@article{Chatain_2020, title={Reciprocating same}, volume={24}, url={https://ojs.ub.uni-konstanz.de/sub/index.php/sub/article/view/855}, DOI={10.18148/sub/2020.v24i1.855}, abstractNote={<p><em>same</em> can appear with a complement (the external construction) or associating with a plural element in the sentence (the internal construction). This type of alternation is observed with other relational modifiers as well (e.g. <em>enemy, neighbor</em>). However, <em>same</em> is unique in also being able to associate with the singular distributive quantifier <em>every </em>in the internal construction (e.g. <em>every child read the same book</em>). Here, I propose to derive this unique behavior from two independently evidenced phenomena: plural properties of <em>every</em> (Kratzer, 2000) and <em>same</em>’s scope-taking (Barker, 2007). Together, these two facts explain<em> same</em>’s behavior: by taking scope, <em>same</em> is able to enter levels of hierarchies where every behaves like a <em>plural</em>. The merit of this analysis is to provide a principled type-driven difference between <em>same</em> and other relational modifiers, which, I argue, is missed in other analyses.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Proceedings of Sinn und Bedeutung}, author={Chatain, Keny}, year={2020}, month={Sep.}, pages={102–115} }
