A Type System For Combinatory Categorial Grammar

This thesis investigates the internal structure and the computational representation of
the lexical entries in Combinatory Categorial Grammar (CCG). A restricted form of
typed feature structures is proposed for representing CCG categories. This proposal
is combined with a constraint-based modality system for basic categories of CCG.
We present some linguistic evidence to explain why both a unication-based feature
system and a constraint-based modality system are needed for a lexicalist framework.
An implementation of our system is also presented.
